The following is a guest article by Ron Barmby.Dr. John Clauser is an experimental physicist and of the highest order.His 2022 Nobel Prize in physics is enough to make him one of the preeminent scientists of our times. His work confirmed the existence of quantum entanglement—that two particles once linked remain linked no matter how far apart they are pulled. A change in one linked particle still affects the other linked particle.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashA peer of Clauser’s said the … [Read more...]
Multi-Faith Australian Religious Leaders Demand ‘Climate Justice’ … to the Disservice of God, Human Flourishing and Science
Christian, Muslim, and Buddhist leaders in Australia “say climate change is impacting the future of religion,” ABC Radio News, Australia, reports.It never quite becomes clear just how climate change would impact the future of religion, but one certainly gets the impression that one of the chief ways is by furthering religious syncretism — the watering down, compromising, and intermixing of doctrinal distinctives in the name of cooperation with other religions.The article begins, “The world … [Read more...]
The Population ‘Problem’ Fizzles
Each year, the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) has a dinner in Washington, D.C., honoring the economist Julian Simon, who died in 1998. Simon was a rare optimist in the fields of population and natural resources. He disagreed with most environmentalists of his day (especially in the 1980s through 1990s). They feared passionately that the growing population would overwhelm agriculture and industry and that the world would run out of natural resources such as oil and minerals.Instead, Simon … [Read more...]
The Dangerous Delusion of a Global Transition to “Just Electricity”

Following Truth in a Warming World: Correcting One Evangelical’s Errant Views on Climate Change
Kyle Meyaard-Schaap is passionate. If all Christians were as committed to seeking God’s purpose for this earth, the United States would not be in the mess it is. But this does not mean I endorse Meyaard-Schaap’s conclusion, in his book Following Jesus in a Warming World: A Christian Call to Climate Action (InterVarsity Press, 2023), that Christians should view manmade climate change as a crisis that demands spending trillions of dollars fighting it. Meyaard-Schaap depends … [Read more...]
Will the Electric Car Mandates Battle Decide the 2024 Election?
Let’s see just how long this auto workers’ strike lasts. It’s not really about the 46% pay raise but the 2009 Obama deal that took away cost-of-living adjustments. It’s not really about the short run, either.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashBut let’s see what the auto workers get in the face of President Biden’s unrealistic demand that would force us to buy Chinese battery-powered vehicles.The sheep will remain loyal – just as they are to every other radical idea – because to resist is to … [Read more...]
Green Hydrogen Needs Vast Subsidies
World leaders tout “green hydrogen” as an essential fuel in the renewable energy transition. Today, heavy industries use huge amounts of coal and natural gas to produce products needed by society. Governments propose to replace hydrocarbon fuels with hydrogen fuel, using hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies. But vast subsidies won’t be enough to overcome the insurmountable problems with green hydrogen fuel. Four big industries—ammonia, cement, plastics, and steel—are powered by natural … [Read more...]
No, the Summer Weather Data Doesn’t Amount to Climate Catastrophe

Pope’s Climate Harangue Shows that He Should Stick to Theology and Leave Climate Policy to Those Who Follow Facts
Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashIn late December 2014, the Vatican announced the Pope would be issuing an encyclical in 2015 concerning the need to battle climate change. In late April 2015, Francis hosted a one-day conference, “Protect the Earth, Dignify Humanity: The Moral Dimensions of Climate Change and Sustainable Development.” Despite being described as a workshop to come to an understanding and agreement about a common path forward on climate change, the Vatican’s official closing … [Read more...]
Has the Sun’s True Role in Global Warming Been Miscalculated?
The following is a guest article by Willie Soon. A new international study published in the scientific peer-reviewed journal, Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics, by 20 climate researchers from 12 countries suggests that the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) might have substantially underestimated the role of the Sun in global warming.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashThe article began as a response to a 2022 commentary on an extensive review of the causes of climate … [Read more...]
