Europe’s ‘Green’ Emperor Is Naked and Cold

Europe stands as the self-proclaimed cathedral of the “green” transition. Bureaucrats in Brussels and politicians in Berlin have spent decades lecturing the world on the moral necessity to abandon hydrocarbons. They have constructed a narrative of the European Union as a shining city powered by the breeze and sun, modeling a net-zero utopia. Yet, when

Delaware’s Energy Crossroads: Rising Demand, Shrinking Reliability

In a companion explainer, “Understanding ‘the Grid’ that Powers Delaware,” I describe how the electric grid operates as a real-time, just-in-time system in which electricity must be produced and consumed almost instantaneously.

Time itself bowed two millennia ago. History pivots at the birth of Jesus Christ. Seven centuries before, the Prophet Isaiah pierced the veil of time to describe a Messiah who would conquer not with a sword, but with sacrifice. “Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows,” Isaiah wrote, foreseeing the substitutionary work

Climate Faithful Admit Need for Fossil Fuels

For years, sensible voices outside the climate establishment warned that a future free of fossil fuels was physically impossible.

According to noted stock trader Ross Givens, many investors are pouring money into nuclear energy stocks that may never deliver. Innovative generation IV and V reactor designs remain unapproved by a slow-moving federal government.

A Religious Spin on Climate Change

Watch out, world — here comes the God-spin on climate change inspired by the UN’s 30th Conference of the Parties (COP30). COP30 wrapped up last month with an offering of the usual suspects: socialist solutions for acolytes to advocate.

Chill Out: Refrigerants Are No Global Warming Threat

A federal rule mandating the use of certain refrigerants has substantially boosted the price of air conditioning and increased the risk of fire – only to reduce global temperature by an amount too small to measure.  Imposed by the Biden administration’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), beginning this year, the rule forced the replacement of a
