An extremely dangerous trend in public policy is growing around the world: demanding reduced emissions, mainly from agriculture, of nitrous oxide (N2O) because it contributes to global warming. Indeed, we're told, every molecule of nitrous oxide in the atmosphere has 230 times the warming potential of every molecule of carbon dioxide---and governments all over the world concluded long ago, rightly or wrongly, that we must cut carbon dioxide emissions to reduce global warming. Clearly, then, it … [Read more...]
Newly Released Survey Revealing Evangelicals Most Skeptical About “Climate Change” Is Evidence of Cornwall Alliance’s Influence
On November 17, the Pew Research Center released the results of a new survey about Americans’ views on the environment, particularly climate change. Pew’s report on the survey results says they showed that “highly religious Americans overwhelmingly say God gave humans a duty to protect and care for the Earth, but far fewer see climate change as a serious problem.” Specifically: 92% (including 86% of evangelicals) say God gave us that duty, but only 42 percent consider climate change an … [Read more...]
Not Green at All
“Green” policies are destroying the natural environment and changing local weather. This is part of a futile UN scheme claiming to improve the climate of the world. All green energy degrades its environment. Take wind power. Wind turbines steal energy from the atmosphere and must affect local weather. Turbines are always placed on the highest ground and along ridges to catch more wind. Natural hills already affect local weather by causing more rain along the ridge, and a rain shadow … [Read more...]
An African Leader Courageously Stands Up to Green Globalist Elites
For eight years, from 1992 to 2000, I taught at Covenant College, in Lookout Mountain, Georgia. One of my colleagues there was someone who since the early 1980s has been one of my dearest friends and greatest advisors, Dr. Henry Krabbendam, a Bible professor, theologian, and evangelist extraordinaire, who for nearly 50 years has trained thousands of students and adults in explaining the gospel one-on-one or in street preaching. I had the privilege of joining Henry for some of it one year. What … [Read more...]
COP27: A Meaningless Ritual for China and India
Last week, Greta Thunberg called the COP27 climate meeting a “scam” that provides a platform for “greenwashing, lying, and cheating.” The teenage climate activist is probably right – for a change. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash Many European countries that pledged at past meetings to move away from coal, oil, and natural gas have been unable to keep their promises. In the case of developing countries that depend heavily on hydrocarbons, the charade is even more apparent. For … [Read more...]
Eco-Extremists Are Leading the World Towards Despair, Poverty, and Starvation
This article was written by Dr. Jordan B. Peterson. Utopian solutions for saving the planet are doomed to failure - and worse. We must wake up before it is too late This winter, millions of British citizens, including children, will be tipped, or dumped, into energy poverty severe enough to risk permanent damage to their health. Cold, damp houses provide the perfect breeding ground for mold that not only causes respiratory distress but renders houses essentially unlivable once … [Read more...]
Thoughtlessness Leads to Tragedy for Man and Beast
The adage “familiarity breeds contempt” applies to behavior around wild animals, whether in herds of bison or elk, or a roving bear, cougar, or gator. Wild animals larger than an average-sized dog should be given a safe, wide berth, as a matter of course. They are not part of a petting zoo. As the 2022 tourist season draws to its close, several untoward incidents, some involving reckless behavior around large animals, have been reported that, unfortunately for the humans involved, proved … [Read more...]
C.S. Lewis On Atomic Theory and the Cross of Christ
Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash In Europe, at the turn of the twentieth century, great advances were being made in atomic theory. In 1904, the British physicist and Nobel laureate Sir Joseph John Thomson, who had discovered the electron, proposed his “Plum Pudding Model” of the atom, characterizing it as a smear of positive and negative charges much like pudding with embedded raisins (which the British called plums). Five years later, Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, working under … [Read more...]
Welcome to Cold War II
Trying to Save the Planetfrom the People Who Are Trying to Save the Planet Two scenes from my toddlerhood in Calcutta, India, have flashed in my mind thousands of times over the last 60-plus years. The first was of a beautiful tree with a red-flowered vine hanging from its branches. The second was of the emaciated bodies of people who had died overnight of starvation and disease. I saw the tree and its vine as my aia, or nurse, led me by the hand through the courtyard of the building … [Read more...]
Floods Are Nothing New
This is a guest article by Viv Forbes. There is nothing unusual about floods, fires, droughts, homelessness, and hunger – they have always been part of the human story. But satellite technology allows us to track them better and our worldwide media revels in disaster reporting, bringing tearfully tragic scenes into every living room, every night. Population growth means that more people are affected by weather events, but there is no evidence that floods and droughts are getting … [Read more...]
