On the heels of the Vatican's announcement that the Pope intends to urge support for an international agreement to fight global warming by reducing human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from fossil-fuel energy use, a new peer-reviewed scientific paper reveals powerful evidence that CO2 emissions contribute far less to global warming than widely thought. The paper, "Why models run hot: results from an irreducibly simple climate model," appeared in the January 8 edition of Science Bulletin … [Read more...]
Signers of Protect the Poor: Ten Reasons to Oppose Harmful Climate Change Policies

We call on scholars, experts, leaders, and citizens to join us in signing this declaration to protect the poor from … [Read more...]
Life is a Gas
Life is a gas – CO2 (And oxygen of course) But to say that it drives the climate Puts the cart before the horse. What Al Gore said in his lecture Unbacked by observable proof Turned out to be pure conjecture – An inconvenient truth... The ice-core samples from Vostok Plotting temperature change over time Revealed that in fact CO2 change Lags hundreds of years behind. Greenland was green when the Vikings Settled a millennium ago; While Frost Fairs were held on the Thames Six centuries later, … [Read more...]
If a Mountain Gets Cast into the Sea, What Happens?
“Shiver me timbers! Mount Everest, cast into the sea! Every two years! What is this world coming to?!” That’s the kind of panicky response climate alarmists count on when they write headlines like the one in the Washington Post December 3: “This West Antarctic region sheds a Mount Everest-sized amount of ice every two years, study says.” (That puts a whole new spin on Jesus’ saying, “if you have faith and do not doubt, you will … say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ … [Read more...]
Obama’s “Climate Education and Literacy Initiative”: How Do You Spell “I-N-D-O-C-T-R-I-N-A-T-I-O-N”?
With Obamacare obviously failing to provide promised affordable health care and falling apart in the face of legal challenges and states’ refusal to participate, it’s becoming increasingly clear that President Obama has decided to make ending “climate change” his legacy. “If you believe, like I do, that something has to be done on this, then you’re going to have to speak out,” Obama told students and faculty at the University of California at Irvine last June. “You’ve got to educate your … [Read more...]
Three Great Legacies of Climategate
It’s been five years now since Climategate broke, and three years since Climategate II broke. The disclosures of thousands of emails, computer programs, and other documents from the Climate Research Unit of the University of East Anglia revealed scandalous scientific misconduct of monumental proportions—enough that it has crippled the credibility of an entire field of science (paleoclimatology) and seriously tarnished the reputations of the inner cadre of researchers in it. Climategate I … [Read more...]
Special Report: Did Global Warming Cause Massive Northeast Snowstorm?
As a boy I lived in Owego, in rural upstate New York just north of the Pennsylvania border about halfway to Ohio, in the late 1950s to mid-1960s. Our locale was more moderate in winter than Buffalo, both in temperature and in snowfall. Nonetheless, it was fairly common to have blizzards that would dump two to three feet of snow, sometimes more, in a day. (A foot of snow is, on average, equivalent to about an inch of rain. Even four or five inches of rain in a day is remarkable but by no means … [Read more...]
Obama Sacrifices American Prosperity on the Altar of Climate Hype
Where was President Barack Obama on Veteran’s Day? Was he honoring the nation’s war dead at Arlington National Cemetery? Encouraging her soldiers in training at one of the military academies? Issuing an executive order to force the Veterans’ Administration to respond promptly and efficiently to the needs of our wounded warriors and their surviving dependents? (I must confess a little prejudice. It took the VA almost exactly a year to approve my then-89-year-old mother’s application for … [Read more...]
Evangelical Environmentalism: Bought and Paid for by Liberal Million$$$?
Evangelical Environmentalism: Bought and Paid for by Liberal Million$$$ (PDF) Revised October 20, 2014 Has evangelical environmentalism, aka “creation care,” grown up as a native plant among American evangelicals? Or is it an invasive, hybrid species that overshadows the cross of Jesus Christ, developed and planted by secular scientists and religious liberals, watered and generously fertilized by Left-wing foundations[1] that share little or nothing of evangelicals’ theological and spiritual … [Read more...]
