Ever heard of “first world problems”? Like home Internet quitting for 15 minutes? Bad mobile signal? Online deliveries arriving late? Can’t fast-forward live TV? A closet full of clothes but “nothing to wear”? Sitting near an infant on a flight to Bali? Chipped nail polish? My quick survey suggests that, at least for Christians in

Recently someone wrote asking, ” How does geoengineering factor in with your Climate Change beliefs?” The Cornwall Alliance as a body hasn’t addressed this question, so what I say here is solely my own thinking. The answer depends heavily on what one means by geoengineering. Humankind has been engineering the earth in many ways, small

People often ask us for recommendations of things to read or view to help them grasp the arguments over global warming. For instance, “What would be the best book/article which critiques the global warming hysteria?” Or “What’s a good short, simple thing to read about climate change?” Or “What should I give to my scientist

Earlier today I blogged on an article at Daily Caller about Dr. William Happer’s resignation from the National Security Council. I pointed out that climate models simulate much more warming than actually observed over the relevant period. Someone responded, “Complete and utter bull^*@%. The modeling is accurate.” Ignore the vulgarity’s telltale sign that this wasn’t

The resignation of Dr. Will Happer, Emeritus Professor of Physics at Princeton and one of America’s finest physicists, from the National Security Council (NSC) is an important event. It is a sign of just how difficult it is to overcome the “deep state’s” stranglehold on government policy, despite the fact that President Donald Trump is

How far will people go to fight climate change? You might have thought you’d seen the limits. Think again. Banning fossil fuels and prescribing “renewable energy” is so last century. Urging vegetarianism or veganism is so last decade. Pushing for population control is so last year. Embracing abortion is so yesterday. If you really want

Do you hold a moderate or neutral opinion on climate? Then get ready to be sidelined or blacklisted as a “denier” or “dangerous person” by the growing number of radicals who believe there should be no room for dissent. Welcome to the Green New America. In earlier days, the color Green was largely associated with

For over a decade, evangelicals have been the most skeptical subset of the American population about claims of catastrophic, anthropogenic global warming (CAGW). Don’t count on their staying that way. Recently Physics World reported on an experiment conducted at three evangelical colleges to see how students’ views about global warming/climate change would shift if they

Three years ago, YaleEnvironment360, published by the reliably climate-alarmist Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, ran “Abrupt Sea Level Rise Looms As Increasingly Realistic Threat,” by Nicola Jones, a freelance journalist specializing in chemistry and oceanography. The article followed the standard formula of warnings about climate change and its catastrophic consequences: present a scary
