Approximately 1.3 billion Indians have been informed that their cooking gas price will go up by 65 cents per liter. In a country like India, higher fuel prices can have quick and dangerous repercussions, resulting in greater morbidity and mortality. The situation is similar in other developing countries and the poor economies of the African continent. Unfortunately, the establishment media does not sufficiently report on how hostility toward fossil fuels has contributed to the current energy … [Read more...]
Saving America From Planet-Threatening Fossil Fuels by Sacrificing our Economy, Environment, Living Standards, Freedoms and Security
Presidential candidate Joe Biden repeatedly promised to end fossil fuels in America. There’ll be “no more drilling, including offshore,” he said. “No ability for the oil industry to drill. No more pipelines.” Shortly after reaching the White House, President Biden ended Keystone XL pipeline construction and began working with congressional Democrats, regulators, and eco-activists to impose leasing and drilling moratoriums, slow-walk permits, pressure financial institutions … [Read more...]

How a divided America empowers Putin
For more than a decade, Vladimir Putin has sought to sow division and undermine American democracy. Now that he’s distracted by the conflict unfolding in Ukraine, his successor has stepped into the spotlight: America’s political class. Once wars united people, but not in modern America. Here, the vast majority of citizens share remarkably similar opinions about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine: that it should be condemned outright. Our politicians, however, seem blissfully unaware of this. In … [Read more...]
Why Rely on OPEC for Biden Blunder Bailouts?
Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and other OPEC nations can be expected to consider global security implications of Biden administration pressures on them to increase oil and gas production to compensate for shortfalls influenced by their own anti-fossil energy policies. These preexisting conditions are only made worse by an appropriate belated American ban on Russian imports which should never have been necessary for our recently energy-independent country in the first place. A Wall Street … [Read more...]
Washington Post and NPR Ignore the Rural Backlash Against Renewables
During my three decades as a reporter, I’ve seen plenty of hype and poor news coverage about renewable energy. But two recent pieces—in the Washington Post and National Public Radio, respectively—are particularly egregious. These reports demonstrate, yet again, that some of the biggest media entities in the world have no clue about—and apparently no sympathy for—the rural Americans, from Maine to Hawaii, who are fighting to protect their homes and neighborhoods from large wind and … [Read more...]
Standing Up to Putin Means Ditching Net-Zero
Vladimir Putin’s inflammatory speech, in which he set out his aim to reconstitute the Russian empire and blamed Lenin for its demise, and his decision to back this up with a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, signals the return of geopolitics. Until now, Western leaders have been saying that the biggest threat to the world is climate change. Now comes Putin armed with nuclear weapons, tanks, and thousands of troops declaring his intent to overthrow Europe’s post-Cold War order. The dilemma for the … [Read more...]
Will Young Conservatives Embrace the Ideology of Climate Change?
I came of age politically in the age of William F. Buckley, Jr, and Ronald Reagan, which means I escaped being indoctrinated into the progressive ideology behind John Maynard Keynes’ economics and Rachel Carson’s environmentalism. So I was baffled by a recent article in World Magazine discussing how many of today’s young “conservatives” embrace the ideas I avoided 40 years ago. The article, Young Republicans embrace climate care, begins with a profile of the 24-year-old … [Read more...]
Responding to the White House Blame Game on Leases
On March 3rd, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, in response to a question about increasing domestic oil production, attempted to shift blame to oil companies by citing “9,000 approved oil leases that the oil companies are not tapping into currently.” In subsequent press conferences, she adjusted that to 9,000 permits and went on a Twitter storm to shift blame. While we may not appreciate the cynical attempt to deny the effects of the president’s own “no federal oil” policies, we … [Read more...]
