Climate Activists Are Wrong About Which Energy Source Reduces Air Pollution

By /

Today’s media are filled with concerns about air pollution. But few people know which energy source has produced the greatest modern reduction in air pollution. The answer isn’t wind or solar energy. During the 1950s, my grandfather had a coal furnace in his basement, like many homes in Chicago. Five days after a winter snowfall, […]

The Norwegian Illusion

By /

Our research shows that EVs will struggle to achieve widespread adoption despite massive subsidies and the growing threat of outright internal combustion engine (ICE) bans. After carefully studying the history of energy, we have yet to find an example where a new technology with inferior energy efficiency has replaced an existing, more efficient one. Despite

Natural Gas Fuels Prosperity of Canadian First Nations Communities

By /

Obsessed with the faux climate crisis, the Canadian government in Ottawa seemingly discounts altogether the social and economic benefits of natural gas to First Nations communities of the country’s western region.  Approximately 5% of the world’s gas comes from Canada, mainly from the vast Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin underlying several provinces, including British Columbia, Alberta

The turbulence that caused a Singapore Airlines flight to drop 6,000 feet in minutes was blamed on climate change by the hysterical media. Having killed a passenger and injured more than 70 others, the incident was one of the worst of its kind and indeed tragic. However, the connection to supposed man-made changes to the atmosphere is

Wrong, Mainstream Media, Tree Rings Aren’t Reliable Indicators of Past Temperatures

By /

Dozens of media outlets such as ABC News, The BBC, The New York Times, and many more, hyped a study that claims summer temperatures in 2023 were unprecedented over the past 2000 years. This claim, in fact, can’t be verified by tree ring data, which isn’t that precise. Researchers are falsely assuming tree rings are reliable temperature indicators when in fact

Radical Leftists Say Oil Companies Are Committing Climate Murder!

By /

We’re constantly told fossil fuel use is causing an existential climate crisis, extreme weather, worsening wildfires, and more frequent and intense hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and droughts. Actual temperature, storm, and other records provide no support for these claims. They certainly don’t back up ludicrous assertions that burning coal, oil, and natural gas – and even human

Tiger Populations Depend on Conservation, Not Climate Management

By /

Radical organizations such as Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion routinely blame the fossil fuel industry and rapid industrialization for damaging ecosystems.   One such claim is that climate change is killing polar bears and myriad other species. “Climate change could wipe out one of world’s largest tiger strongholds,” claimed a headline at EarthDay.org. But how
