Achieving Net Zero 

by

According to the clerics of the Green Cult, once we blow up our last coal mine, send all diesel engines to the wreckers, stop using concrete, reinvent sailing clippers, cover the grasslands with solar clutter and the hills with wind machines and then slaughter all of our cattle. . . global climate will become serene - not too warm, not too cold. Wild weather will cease, and there will be no more droughts, floods, cyclones or snow storms and no more plant and animal extinctions. But the … [Read more...]

The Rise of Totalitarian Science

by

The following is a guest article by John G. West. The following was originally published on January 31, 2022. In 2007, I published Darwin Day in America, a critical history of social Darwinism in the United States and, more broadly, an exploration of the abuse of science in American public policy in the last century-and-a-half. In 2015, I wrote a new chapter for the paperback edition, highlighting a worrisome trend. I warned: Our culture is witnessing the rise of … [Read more...]

Carlos Conquers Carrington: Could This Be Our Future With Net-Zero?

by

This is a guest article by John Haller. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash The Solar Storm of 1859. Nobody living today can remember two significant events that occurred in September 1859.  These events were separated by a 24-hour break.  Our ever-dependable friend the sun, sent two "death rays" our way, sometimes referred to in technical jargon as CMEs, or Coronal Mass Ejections. Solar storms.  Humankind had not noticed, nor had they ever been affected by these … [Read more...]

Australia’s Great Coral Reef Is Alive and Well. Why Hide That Fact?

by

(This file has been updated.) Peter Ridd, who examined current data about Australia’s Great Coral Reef, demolishes fears that the reef is sick or dying. He asks why the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) is obscuring that fact by failing to aggregate the data. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash However, perhaps recognizing that Ridd (a controversial figure) was studying the reef, AIMS has just announced that two-thirds of the reef has the most coral cover it has since … [Read more...]

FERC Considers Constraining Renewables

by

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC, rhymes with jerk) is taking comments on a proposed order that might actually constrain the destructive impact of renewables on America’s grid. FERC would order the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC, also rhymes with jerk) to do something about the growing adverse impact of renewables. NERC is a private corporation endowed with federal authority to keep America’s lights on. NERC makes and enforces the regulations governing … [Read more...]

ESG’s Perverse, Narrow, Fraudulent Ethical Principles

by

Warning: Your retirement fund may have been Shanghaied by BlackRock or other Wall Street asset managers who’ve unilaterally decided that the tens of trillions of dollars of other people’s money they control should be used to advance political causes they favor – to “make the world a better place.”   Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash As most people know, ESG stands for Environmental protection, Social justice, and Governance of corporate and societal affairs. They’re all … [Read more...]

The Gas Stove Prophets

by

The following is a guest article by Hans Fiene. The secular left keeps seeking the fulfillment of religious impulses with unsatisfying substitutes. A few days ago, I got up to grill myself a quesadilla in a world where gas stoves were apolitical appliances. When I returned, the political left had declared them a threat to humanity. Richard Trumka Jr. of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission stated that a ban on gas stoves should be on the table because, as New York … [Read more...]

Should We Trust the UN’s “Climate Science”?

by

This is a guest article by Donna Laframboise. Last summer the National Association of Evangelicals, an organization largely in America but with some representation in my country, Canada, published a report that urges Christians to care deeply about climate change. Titled Loving the Least of These, it relies on the work of a United Nations (UN) entity to make its case. Having written two books about that entity—the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)—I was sorry … [Read more...]
