Nothing Like Fossil Energy Shortages to Cool Climate Alarm Policies

By /

What a difference a year makes in witnessing how rising petroleum pump prices and winter heating costs can bring about a chilling political climate change regarding the importance of fossil energy. We’re seeing evidence of this consequential rude awakening in reversals of the Biden administration’s anti-oil and gas regulatory edicts, desperate White House pleas for […]

What Solution Do Renewable Energy Advocates Offer For The Problem Of Storage?

By /

Most comments at this site tend to have a perspective generally consistent with my own. But sometimes a post will attract comments from people with a very different point of view. That occurred on a post earlier this week titled “Two More Contributions On The impossibility Of Electrifying Everything Using Only Wind, Solar, And Batteries.”

Nord Stream 2’s impact on the European Union, NATO, and the U.S

By /

There is a real possibility, the European Union (EU) will endure major fuel shortages this winter. Record-high electricity prices are currently the norm with no end in sight. Russian President Vladimir Putin astutely understands the EU heavily relies on Russian natural gas, which Nord Stream 1 and now 2 (NS2) natural gas pipeline will provide.

Corrupt Climate Science Poisons Eastern Power Grid Operator

By /

Once upon a time the job of the PJM Interconnection — operator of the nation’s largest electricity grid — was reasonably straightforward: Keep the lights on. The organization’s mission statement still identifies PJM’s “primary task” as ensuring the power grid’s “safety, reliability and security.”  However, today’s PJM is post-modern. Focused management of transmitting electricity is

More Snow Hits the Fan this Week: Climate Change Alarmists Still Want it Both Ways

By /

As I predicted, climate change has been blamed for the recent New England blizzard (e.g. from Bloomberg here). During that storm, Boston tied its 24-hr snowfall record at 23.6 inches. Yet, as recently as January 6, we were told by USAToday that Boston’s lengthy 316-day streak *without* one inch of snowfall as of January 1st was caused by global

The Dangers of Challenging the Climate Change Consensus

By /

One of the easiest things to do is to go along to get along.  This is true in so many areas of life, including knowledge of science topics.  If you don’t have an in-depth knowledge of a particular area of science, the “easiest thing” kicks in rather effortlessly.  Alternatively, if you have a depth of knowledge on a

Being a Climate Alarmist Means Never Having to Admit You’re Wrong

By /

A mountain of evidence shows climate alarmists never learn from their mistakes, be they clear misstatements of facts or repeatedly failed prognostications. Why should they? The press lets climate alarmists get away with making more false claims than any other group on any other topic, including the efficacy of the COVID vaccines in keeping people
