Whether it’s a hot Colorado summer or a cold United Kingdom winter, the misery of “green" policies becomes an everyday reality as hapless consumers are denied access to energy. When state lawmakers and energy providers choose to increase “renewable” technologies in their energy mix, the inevitable results are grid instability, power shortages, higher prices, and a whole lot of blackout-driven chaos.Is this the new normal that the governing elites of our world want us to embrace? Then we must … [Read more...]
India, China Emissions Make Mockery of Western Policies
Amidst the European energy crisis, it’s easy to miss other events that are of significance to the discussion about the climate-change movement. Among them are a series of setbacks to green policies in China and India. These countries — representing three billion people — have delayed the implementation of renewable energy commitments and aggressively increased the production and consumption of fossil fuels. At the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit, Chinese and Indian leaders — … [Read more...]
Fossil Fuels are the Greenest Energy Sources
This is a guest article by Indur M. Goklany Contrary to the claims of proponents of the Green New Deal and Net Zero, fossil fuels are the greenest fuels. First, uniquely among energy sources, fossil fuel use emits CO2, which is the ultimate source of the elemental building block, carbon, found in all carbon-based life, i.e., virtually all life on Earth. The increased amplitude of the seasonal cycle in atmospheric CO2 and satellite-borne instrumentation to measure solar-induced … [Read more...]
Arctic Ice at Decade-High Level: Can Doomsayers Explain?
With ice coverage for July and August remaining above the 10-year average of 2010-20, the extent of summer sea ice in the Arctic has surprised experts who once predicted that such levels would be impossible. This stands in stark contrast to the dominant climate narrative that predicts the dwindling of summer ice in the Arctic. Some politicians had even claimed that parts of the Arctic would be ice-free by now. With the seasonal Arctic melt technically over, it is fair to conclude that the … [Read more...]
The European Heat Wave and Global Warming
This is a guest article by Cliff Mass. There is a lot of talk about the short-term European heatwave with some suggesting that the record-breaking warmth is the result of climate change/global warming. Some of the media and climate advocates have been over the top in their claims (see below), stating that this event was the result of human-caused global warming. The truth and overwhelming scientific evidence provide a different story: the recent European … [Read more...]
The New Anti-Agriculture Movement: Why the Church Must Pray and Act
There is a new movement against farming. This is no random grassroots movement. It’s a global one with political interests. This new collective strategy proposes to reduce agricultural production, reduce livestock numbers, and ban plant growth-enhancing fertilizers. The objective, they claim, is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, especially nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide. They say this will “save” the planet from climate catastrophe. But the proposed actions threaten to increase food … [Read more...]
Control the Tyrant, Transform the Culture
Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash A popular radio program in the 1930s began with a haunting voice, "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" We listeners would sit and wait, knowing that week after week we would hear a scary story of a tyrant preparing to oppress upright people but knowing that after tense moments the Shadow would undo the evil and the ending would be good. The program continued for over a decade, probably replaced in the lives of hearers by … [Read more...]
The Religious Moral Dilemma that Drives the “Moral Imperative to Stop Global Warming” into a Brick Wall
This is a guest article by Russell Cook. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash Once again, the “Religious Moral Imperative to Stop Global Warming” popped up last week and achieved another 15 minutes of fame via multi-repeats of the news story of the National Association of Evangelicals putting out a major report detailing the “Biblical Basis for Christian Engagement” to stop man-caused global warming. Sadly, their nearly 100 page report operates pretty much on what skeptic climate … [Read more...]
California Charges Forward with Energy Disasters of Biblical Proportions
On August 31, just days after Gov. Gavin Newsom announced a mandated switch to electric vehicles (EVs), the California Independent System Operator, which runs the state’s power grid, called for a Flex Alert asking residents to voluntarily reduce their power consumption by avoiding “large appliances and charging electric vehicles” during peak usage hours of 4 to 9 pm. The unforeseen problem, it seems, in addition to increasing power demands and anemic, unreliable wind and solar … [Read more...]
Washington, DC’s Energy Colonialism
Washington, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser thinks people worldwide have a “human right” to come to the United States, legally or illegally. Our nation’s capital proudly proclaimed itself a “sanctuary city” in 2016. “We celebrate our diversity and respect all DC residents,” the mayor said, “no matter their immigration status.” But when Arizona and Texas were overwhelmed by a million-plus illegal migrants – and their governors sent a couple thousand of them to Washington – she was outraged. They … [Read more...]
