What Does A Weatherman Know About Settled Climate Science?

By /

What does a weatherman know about the climate?  This question is posed all the time as an argument by leftist climate activists against any meteorologist who would dare to oppose the “consensus” narrative that humans are causing long-term, disastrous global climate change. But the argument demonstrates the lack of understanding many have with respect to the discipline of atmospheric science.

Earth Day and the Bizarro World of Climate Alarmism

By /

Much of the world celebrated Earth Day last Sunday. No one did it more enthusiastically than global warming alarmists. Global warming alarmists, like their ideological kin Progressives and Leftists, look at the world differently. More conservative types, like yours truly, don’t exactly view reality through rose-colored glasses. I’m no Pollyanna. I concede we occupy a

Congratulations to Jim Bridenstine, New NASA Administrator—It’s about Time!

By /

Seven months ago I wrote about why Congressman Jim Bridenstine (R-OK), nominated to be the new administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, was well qualified and, in a saner world, should have been confirmed quickly. Yesterday, at last, the well-deserved confirmation finally happened—albeit along strict party lines—after the vote had been delayed for

Steering clear of climate alarm: climate change alarmists should chill on Earth Day 2018

By /

Sunday, April 22 will mark the 48th anniversary of Earth Day. A lot of concern about the planet’s future was generated back then and a passionate movement was launched that endures to this day. But much has changed since 1970 when the Earth was in a substantial cooling trend. Today, of course, the angst is over

When Rice is Worth Gold: Legalization of Golden Rice in the Fight against Poverty

By /

Golden Rice was declared safe for consumption by Canada recently. This has huge implications for the rest of the world, where Golden Rice can be vital resource in tackling vitamin A deficiency and malnutrition. Genetically modified (GM) crops are engineered to display traits that are otherwise absent or subdued in natural crops. For example, gene modification results

A Warming Solution that Just Might Work—But Not as Planned?

By /

Los Angeles has a new solution to climate change: painting streets white. Well, not quite a solution to climate change. What it really addresses is what’s called the “urban heat island” (UHI) effect. Cities and towns, with lots of blacktop streets, absorb more energy from sunlight than rural areas, so their ambient air temperatures (especially

What Really Brought about the Population Collapse on Easter Island?

By /

For years people around the world, swayed mostly by Jared Diamond’s book Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed, have thought Easter Island—2,300 miles west of the coast of Chile—suffered a population crash because its people used up its resources (chiefly palm trees) faster than they could be renewed. I haven’t known what to think,

Maybe ‘exceptional’ weather is just weather

By /

Perhaps the best challenge to the hysterical claims that humans are causing unusual climate change is the demonstration that “exceptional” weather events can be predicted in advance based on their natural occurrence in history. One person who has admirably met this challenge with consistent, convincing demonstrations is meteorologist and forecaster extraordinaire Joe Bastardi.  Bastardi – formerly
