Many countries have been at the crisscross of warfare between anti-coal establishments and the traditional coal industry. Despite the elite-empowered and politically motivated worldwide campaign to phase out coal, demand for coal is on the rise! Coal has been “enemy No. 1” for the climate establishment. In fact, it would seem that the entire global warming movement is hinged upon the singular aim to eliminate coal from use. Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming (CAGW) is a notion that … [Read more...]
Does Russia Deploy American Green Groups as Pawns?
The Trump administration, despite being accused of facilitating Russian collusion in the 2016 Presidential election, is, with the rest of America, actually a victim of Russian sabotage. American environmental groups’ threats to halt energy projects and defence operations, long a problem, have grown recently, thanks in part to Russian support. They are now more dangerous to energy security than ever. While the media remain obsessed with “Russia collusion” in the 2016 elections, they ignore … [Read more...]
YouTube’s Climate Change ‘Re-Education Camp’
YouTube’s recent move to flag videos that do not align with the company’s beliefs is a shocker to many viewers. This is no small move. YouTube is setting a dangerous precedent for other social media platforms, which may soon espouse this anti-science attitude. Recently, YouTube decided to post a banner beneath videos that questioned the consensus on global warming. More precisely, it even flags videos that do not question the warming. All the video has to do is question the magnitude of … [Read more...]
The Astonishing Failures of Al Gore’s Arctic Prophecies
In his 2007 Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, Al Gore claimed that there is “a 75 percent chance the entire polar ice cap will melt in summer within the next five to seven years.” Well, eleven years have gone by, and Arctic ice is doing fine. Why do politicians like Gore make blatantly false claims? The Arctic ice sheet has been the heart of climate-change debate. So much so, both climate-change alarmists and climate-change skeptics have often erred by relying exclusively on the … [Read more...]
Dr. Roy Spencer Receives Frederick Seitz Memorial Award
Cornwall Alliance Senior Fellow Dr. Roy W. Spencer received the Frederick Seitz Memorial Award, in recognition of his work, with colleague Dr. John Christy, on satellite monitoring of global temperature, and "the exceptional courage [he] has shown in the quest for knowledge and the great contribution he has made to science," Tuesday, August 7. The Science and Environmental Policy Project (SEPP) gave Spencer the award at the America First Energy Conference, sponsored by The Heartland … [Read more...]
Are There Benefits to Climate Change?
News reports and editorials about human-caused climate change are a daily feature of modern life, as politicians, environmental activists and industry leaders grapple over how to mitigate or avert the expected global catastrophe to ensue. Gregory R. Wrightstone takes a different view. “We see that many of the predicted climate calamities … are, in fact, not happening, and that conditions are improving in many cases,” he said. Wrightstone is an AAPG Member and author of the book, … [Read more...]
The Complex Climate Conundrum: Moving from Panic to Progress
The media buzz about climate doomsday can be quite overwhelming to any ordinary person who is not into sciences or academia. In recent decades, more and more people have been persuaded to believe that an imminent climate collapse is at hand. But do we know enough about climate change to justify such claims? How much sense can we make from what we do know? I’ve grappled with these questions for over a decade, starting with my graduate studies in climate science at the University of East … [Read more...]
Anti-Science Attitude and Media Lies: Your Blinded Climate Friend
Climate change is divisive. While most conservatives tend to be skeptical of the dangers of climate change, most liberals tend to exaggerate them. Within the scientific community too, a plethora of scientists believe the current change in climate is not unprecedented. Their opinion stands in stark contrast to opinions held by scientists who head the climate policy making bodies at the United Nations. Friends are no exception. Recently, a friend told me that climate change's impact is very … [Read more...]
Are Record Temperatures Evidence of Manmade Global Warming?
It is a slam-dunk certainty that American mainstream media will seize upon a recent story in the Los Angeles Times, “Southern California sets all-time heat records amid broiling conditions,” as justification for its continuing support of the contested theory of man-caused global warming. It has already happened with a Yahoo News story claiming that the new temperature records world-wide prove man causes climate change. But there are problems in pursuing that path. First, days that reach … [Read more...]
The “Temperature Circle” Deception
About a year ago, Finnish climate researcher Antti Lipponen posted a new way to visualize global warming, an animation he called the “temperature circle”. It displays the GISS land temperature data as colored bars for each country in the world radiating from a circle. As the temperature in a country goes up, the colored bar changes from a blue bar to a red bar, and gets longer…and wider: I didn’t pay much attention to the ‘temperature circle’ at the time as it seemed rather … [Read more...]
