A swirl of tomato soup engulfs Van Gogh's vibrant “Sunflowers.” Mashed potatoes mar Monet's serene “Water Lilies.” Across the globe, priceless artworks endure desecration in the name of climate activism. On a recent weekend, so-called eco-activists threw yellow soup on the “Mona Lisa” at Paris’s Louvre Museum. These acts are a vile destruction of beauty in the name of a dangerous worldview. Peaceful protest of injustice is an important aspect of our civilization. Be it the civil rights movement … [Read more...]
New US-EU Methane Rules Won’t Affect Temperatures
In March, the US Environmental Protection Agency published new methane emissions regulations for the oil and gas industry. In May, the European Union enacted new rules to reduce methane emissions from the energy sector. Agriculture is also being targeted regarding methane. But methane regulations, even if established worldwide, won’t have a measurable effect on global temperatures. However, they will raise costs for energy and food, impacting consumers and businesses. On March 8, the … [Read more...]
Small Group of House Members Introduce Pro-Tax, Anti-Energy Bill

Climate Cult: Exposing and Defeating Their War on Life, Liberty, and Property, Brian Sussman, Post Hill Press
Temperatures in much of the US soared to near and above 100 degrees Fahrenheit this past week. Temperatures this high are highly unusual and humans are to blame. This is obvious, right? Not so fast. Regardless of the popular memes, history and nature still have an enormous say on current climate events. History and nature are given a voice in Climate Cult: Exposing and Defeating Their War on Life, Liberty, and Property by certified broadcast meteorologist and talk-radio host … [Read more...]
Mining the Planet for Renewable Energy
This election year, several critical issues dominate voter concerns. Illegal immigration across unsecured borders by migrants, criminals, sex traffickers, and terrorists. Anti-police policies reduced prosecution of criminals and rising crime. Unprecedented prices for food, clothing, housing, and other necessities. Parental roles in education and sex changes for children. Threats to our republic and democracy from unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats who use their powers to persecute, prosecute, … [Read more...]
The Real Human Cost of “Green” Initiatives
Almost half the world — over three billion people — live on less than $2.50 a day, and billions live with little to no access to electricity, like those in places like Africa, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia. This is complicated by the hypocritical “green” agendas of leaders in the few wealthier developed economies that have benefited from the more than 6,000 products made from fossil fuels since the beginning of the industrial era. Wealthy countries desiring to pursue their … [Read more...]
Winter Without Your Gasoline Car?
January of this year brought near-zero temperatures to Chicago and other northern cites, producing an electric vehicle (EV) charging nightmare. National media showed images of owners pushing dead EVs around charging stations and waiting for hours to try to charge their vehicle. Drivers lucky enough to connect to a charger sat in their freezing-cold automobile, unable to run the heater while the car tried to charge. Nevertheless, the federal government and many states continue to push to … [Read more...]

The state’s electricity, gasoline, and natural gas prices are amongst the nation’s highest and rising. Green energy policies are the primary cause for high and escalating California … [Read more...]
Climate Activists Are Wrong About Which Energy Source Reduces Air Pollution
Today’s media are filled with concerns about air pollution. But few people know which energy source has produced the greatest modern reduction in air pollution. The answer isn’t wind or solar energy.During the 1950s, my grandfather had a coal furnace in his basement, like many homes in Chicago. Five days after a winter snowfall, the snow was covered with a visible black film of dust from coal furnaces. Our younger generation does not know the original reason for “spring cleaning.” Every spring, … [Read more...]
The Norwegian Illusion
Our research shows that EVs will struggle to achieve widespread adoption despite massive subsidies and the growing threat of outright internal combustion engine (ICE) bans. After carefully studying the history of energy, we have yet to find an example where a new technology with inferior energy efficiency has replaced an existing, more efficient one. Despite claims to the contrary, our research suggests EVs are less energy efficient than internal combustion engine automobiles. As a result, they … [Read more...]
