This is a great article from Tom Harris in the Daily Caller. We at the Cornwall Alliance strongly commend it to you, and hope you will read it and help spread the word that "killing the Paris Agreement is not enough"! If President Donald Trump merely pulls the United States out of the Paris Agreement on climate change, it will be like cutting the head off a dandelion. It will look good for a while until equally bad agreements quickly grow back when a Democrat occupies the White House again. … [Read more...]

Peoples Climate Movement—Not Science, Just Thuggery
This isn't science. This isn't even rational discourse. This is thuggery---typical of communist movements from the French Revolution through the socialist revolutions of the 1840s and the Russian and Chinese revolutions. Not sure?

Poison for the Mind: The Nation on CO2 and Global Warming
What’s “a far more deadly gas” than the Sarin that Syrian President Bashar al Assad used to kill his own citizens—prompting President Trump to respond with a missile attack? Carbon dioxide. Or so says The Nation. According to “The Other Poison Gas Killing Syrians: Carbon Dioxide Emissions,” by University of Michigan Professor of History Juan Cole, “If Trump and his cronies really cared about children killed by noxious gases, they wouldn’t be trying to spew ever more CO2 into the atmosphere.” We … [Read more...]
Earth Day 2017 and the Anti-Scientific ‘March for Science’
It’s no mere happenstance that the “Marches for Science” were scheduled for Earth Day — this Saturday, April 22nd. The March organizers flew the flag of climate alarmism as soon as they announced the events. This, for instance, is from one of their early blog posts warning against a right wing “war on science”: Much of the War on Science will be subtly fought, casting doubt on … climate change. … This is a well-known tactic, thoroughly documented in the book Merchants of Doubt. At his … [Read more...]
Exiting the Paris Climate Agreement
Scant evidence of expected benefit means Scott Pruitt is right Washington Times, Monday, April 17, 2017 Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt appeared on “Fox & Friends” April 13 and said, “Paris is something we really need to look at closely, because it’s something we need to exit, in my opinion.” Why? “It’s a bad deal for America. China and India had no obligations under the agreement until 2030, we front-loaded all of our costs, at the expense of … [Read more...]
Your Tax Dollars at Work: Abortion and Forced Sterilization in India
Over 35 million children have been aborted worldwide so far this year. Abortion numbers for India are hard to gauge because many don’t get reported, but it’s more than half-a-million babies, and could be as many as seven million. The preference for male children is strong in India, leading to sex selective abortions and significantly fewer female children. This has exacerbated sex-trafficking of women. … [Read more...]
Human-induced Global Warming—A Little, or a Lot?
Cornwall Alliance Senior Fellow Roy W. Spencer's monthly graph of global lower atmosphere temperature anomaly for March 2017 shows we're still cooling from the super-El Nino that so warmed 2016. Track your eye straight left from the farthest-right point and you'll see that there's little change from the anomalies of roughly 2001--2006, and of course we had significant downs and ups in between. John Christy in his February 2017 Global Temperature Report (go to … [Read more...]
Environmentalists Vow to Fight Trump in the Streets Over Climate Policy
If you pay attention to news sources outside the typical conservative camp, you'll have noticed two things in the last couple days: First the titles are all ridiculous in their alarmism (we are all going to die, etc. etc. etc.). Second, that impending doom is solely due to President Donald J. Trump's recent executive order attempting to roll back some of Barack Obama's Climate Legacy. To say that environmentalists are spitting mad is an understatement so vast I hesitate to make it, but the … [Read more...]
Trump’s Rollback of EPA Overreach: What No One is Talking About
President Trump’s actions yesterday (March 28) to rein in the EPA on a number of fronts involves the usual tension between environment and prosperity. Trump has rightly asserted that we can have both a relatively clean environment and prosperity, but this falls on deaf ears in the environmental community. His actions are painted as Republican’s desire to harm your children, because a more polluted environment is claimed to be worse for human health and welfare than achieving a cleaner … [Read more...]
