Coral reefs are some of creation’s most strikingly beautiful places. Clean and clear blue water, graceful whales and sea turtles, swarms of dazzling fishes, and amazing coral. We can’t get enough of coral reefs, so we adorn our walls with paintings and photos. Saltwater aquariums abound in households, restaurants and businesses around the world. Naturally, we want to protect all this goodness and beauty. Stewardship is in our DNA. Our emotions can kick in when a threat is perceived. … [Read more...]
Crude Reality: South America’s Offshore Oil Buries Net Zero Agenda
South American nations are increasingly realigning energy strategies to capitalize on offshore oil and gas reserves, signaling a marked shift from previously stated goals of reducing dependence on fossil fuels to satisfy the net zero agenda of those obsessed with a faux climate emergency. This divergence reflects the region's pressing need to address economic challenges, including poverty, unemployment and a requirement for sustainable revenue streams to fund social programs and … [Read more...]
Tangled Comparisons: Renewables Versus Fossil Fuels
The following is a guest article by Norman Rogers. We are often told that wind and solar, if not cheaper, are at least cost competitive with fossil fuels. Dead wrong! Wind or solar costs around five times more per megawatt hour compared to, for example, natural gas. We are told that wind and solar will save us from a climate catastrophe. If there is a looming climate catastrophe, the only thing that will save us is nuclear power. Wind and solar are incredibly expensive methods of … [Read more...]
Math Confirms Foolishness of Climate Alarmism
The science of climate change often is presented in complicated language that speaks of computer models and the theoretical inputs and outputs thereof and concludes that the globe is on the verge of “boiling.” Well, leave it to three physicists -- steeped in calculus and such arcane matters as the behavior of molecules and the nuclear charge of atoms -- to simplify the analysis and arrive at a much less alarming determination. “Straightforward calculations … show that eliminating U.S. … [Read more...]
Iowa Farmers Threatened by Climate “Solutions”
Iowa’s rolling fields, stretching as far as the eye can see, have long embodied America's agricultural prowess. For generations, the farmers of this Midwestern state have fed not just a nation but a significant portion of the world, their toil and ingenuity creating an agricultural superpower. Yet today, these same farmers feel the very foundations of their way of life threatened by proposals to limit greenhouse gas emissions to address a fabricated climate … [Read more...]
India Accentuates Coal Reliance in its New Economic Policy Brief
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...]
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 … [Read more...]
Carbon Dioxide Pipeline Battle—Seize Land for Green Energy
A battle is underway in five Midwest states over the construction of carbon dioxide pipelines as part of the green energy transition. Opposition to wide-area pipeline networks is rising from farms and communities. But utilities and state governments intend to seize land over landowner protests. On June 25, the Iowa Utilities Board (IUB) granted the petition of Summit Carbon Solutions (Summit) for a permit to build a carbon dioxide (CO2) pipeline across Iowa. The IUB determined that the … [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 … [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 … [Read more...]
