Most discussions of India’s annual budget are being dominated by the increased taxation of the middle class. But many media entities—both in India and the West—overlooked the country’s decision to increase its coal consumption.An economic survey released as a prelude to the financial budget often indicates the country’s future direction in various areas of governance, including energy and environment. This year’s survey—like those in the previous years—clearly indicates that the country … [Read more...]
Who is Directing the War on Agriculture and Nutrition?
Elite billionaire organizations and foundations, government agencies and activist pressure groups are funding and coordinating a global war on modern agriculture, nutrition, and Earth’s poorest, hungriest people. Instead of helping more families get nutritious food, better healthcare and higher living standards, they’re doing the opposite, and harming biodiversity in the process.The World Economic Forum wants to reimagine, reinvent and transform the global food system, to eliminate … [Read more...]
The True Cost of Biden’s Bet on EVs
Two months into his Presidency, Joe Biden announced a $2 trillion infrastructure plan that included $174 billion in grants, subsidies, and other payouts to encourage Americans to switch to battery-electric vehicles (BEVs). Since that initial “investment,” billions and billions more have been poured into what is increasingly a failing effort to convince or cajole auto buyers to switch.These huge expenditures, together with COVID and war monies, have ballooned the national debt … [Read more...]
Anemia Would Rise in Climate Obsessed’s Meatless Dystopia
Iron deficiency, and the anemia it causes, remains a persistent global health issue that can only be exacerbated by a war on meat waged by climate alarmists, whose hostility to animal protein is a manifestation of an anti-human ideology.Growing up in South Asia, I observed a dietary practice in India where doctors prescribed moderate consumption of red meat for individuals with severe anemia, especially women during pregnancy. According to the World Health Organization, more than 40% of children … [Read more...]
Net Zero Agenda Threatens Your Future Garment Purchases
Whether living in the United States or in a European country, there is a greater chance of wearing a garment made in Bangladesh than in one’s homeland. However, the south Asian country’s dominance in the manufacture of clothing is being threatened by a “green” agenda undermining the power supply. With availability of cheap labor and plentiful raw materials, Bangladesh is the world’s second biggest garment exporter and trails only China, having surged ahead of other Asian competitors such as … [Read more...]
Power Outages Bring Hurricane of EV Buyers’ Remorse
Hurricane Beryl reminded millions of us Houstonians how lucky we are to have reliable petroleum-fueled cars when power is interrupted.As it happened, my wife, Nancy, and I had our return flight canceled from a conference we attended in El Paso, Texas, on the day before the storm hit.Accordingly, we drove a rental car across hundreds of miles of very hot desert sparsely populated with distant small towns and no apparent charging stations for unfortunate EVs.The terrible thought of being stranded … [Read more...]
Why the ‘Green Economy’ Is Suddenly in Retreat—in EU, US, and on Wall Street
The following is a guest article by Jonathan Miltimore. In February, a stream of tractors driven by Italian farmers arrived at the outskirts of Rome, horns blaring. The scene, which was captured by the Agence France-Presse, was just one of dozens of protests across Europe against EU regulations that farmers said threatened to put them out of work.“They’re drowning us with all these regulations,” one farmer at a protest in Pamplona, Spain, told The Guardian. “They need to ease … [Read more...]
No Governor Inslee, Repeal of Washington State’s Climate Commitment Act Won’t Hurt the Climate
Washington State’s Climate Commitment Act (CCA) faces the possibility of repeal this fall. Governor Jay Inslee and others claim the CCA will reduce pollution and help stop climate change. But the CCA isn’t having the slightest effect on the climate, while it is boosting the cost of living for Washington residents. Washington’s Climate Commitment Act passed in 2021, implementing a cap and invest program designed to reduce state greenhouse gas emissions by 95% by 2050. Businesses with … [Read more...]
Hurricanes and Other Evil Winds
The following is a guest article by Paul Schwennesen. As Hurricane Beryl barreled its way across the Gulf of Mexico and into the US mainland, the attention-getting headlines had beaten it there by a long shot — claims that it was a remarkable outlier were appearing in climate-frantic narratives more than a week earlier. CBS News claimed it was “historic,” alongside headlines on “How to talk to your kids about climate anxiety.” The BBC reported that it was “the first hurricane to reach the … [Read more...]
Held Case Underscores the Importance of Scientific Debate
The following is a guest article by Roger Koopman.Many conservatives are quite upset at district court Judge Kathy Seeley, for recently ruling in favor of the 16 school-age plaintiffs in the Held climate change case, but I am not. Some might see the length of her 103-page Order as overkill, but I wasn’t surprised by that either. It was the natural outcome of a trial where the Defendants – the state of Montana – might just as well have stayed home. AG Knudsen and the Gianforte … [Read more...]
