The relationship between China and Russia poses the greatest danger faced by America and the West since the Hitler-Stalin Pact in 1939 initiated WWII. If alarm bells are not ringing all across Washington, DC, they should be. China was already a global power based on its expanding economy, modernizing military and diplomatic reach, but the burgeoning relations with Moscow provide Beijing with renewed energy, literally and figuratively.What does that mean for the rest of the world?The … [Read more...]
Even With Its Problems, Science Education Lives On In America
This is a guest article by Dr. Sharon Camp.Never have I been so inspired upon being removed from a venue. Actually, as a retired teacher of AP (advanced placement) environmental sciences and chemistry, I haven’t been escorted from very many places. Perhaps none. I should explain.I am a member of the CO2 Coalition in Arlington, Virginia, where I wear my scientist hat – a B.S. in geology and Ph.D. in analytical chemistry – and serve on the organization’s education committee. In supporting our … [Read more...]
NOAA Proposes Hammering 208% of Vanishing Right Whales
Okay, it is a trick headline because they can only hammer 100% of the severely endangered North Atlantic Right Whale population. The point is that NOAA is proposing, for offshore wind development, to authorize a horrific 706 cases of physical harassment of Right Whales, whose dwindling population is down to just 340 magnificent critters.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashThe average whale will get hammered roughly twice. The Right Whales migrate along the coast twice a year. Migration … [Read more...]
Your Taxes at Work: ‘Eco-Anxiety’ Counseling
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service employees are struggling to cope with feelings of trauma and loss over the world’s changing climates and imperiled environments. Their work repeatedly confronts them with ecological changes, but even a sense of “anticipated loss” perhaps decades from now requires compassionate help. Or so the FWS and American Psychological Association tell us.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashThe FWS is thus offering paid leave to employees who attend “eco-anxiety” and “climate … [Read more...]
Using the Climate Change Scare to Promote Abortion
A couple of weeks ago, I was invited to speak to Campaign Life Coalition Ottawa about climate change and the potential threat that climate alarmism poses to the objectives of pro-lifers. The title of the event is “Why global warming alarmism is a threat to unborn children… and the pro-life movement.”In preparation for the event, I researched whether climate activist groups had anything to say about abortion and were surprised to see they do indeed. While their position is usually cloaked in … [Read more...]
110,000 Deaths A Year In South Asia Due To Rising Temperatures, Claims WHO
The first thing to point out is that Dr Neira is Director of Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health at the WHO.The second thing to note is that she is telling a pack of lies.The article in the Economist she is referring to actually says:Between 2000 and 2019, South Asia saw over 110,000 heat-related excess deaths a year, according to a study in Lancet Planetary Health, a journal.The Economist also wants readers to think that hot weather is killing more, as the article is … [Read more...]
Shining Light on Science Education’s Dark Age
The science teachers’ bureaucracy is driving climate education into an unquestioning adherence to unscientific methodology. The cost will be measured in students without the facility for the more than 400-year-old scientific method and lacking the critical thinking necessary for sustaining civilization and advancing humankind.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashMany observers of education have been concerned for some time about the state of science education in America. Teaching, it seems, has … [Read more...]
The Pathway to End Poverty and the Christian’s Role
Christian love compels every follower of Jesus to help the poor and needy. Jesus, in Matthew 25:40, referring to help extended by the righteous people to the needy in the world, says, “Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.”Half of the global population (4 billion) lives on less than $6.85 USD per person per day (less than $210 USD per month). Among them, around 650 million live on $2.15 USD or less per day (or less than $64 USD … [Read more...]
Will Breezes and Sunshine Charge Governor Jay Inslee’s EVs?
Washington State Governor Jay Inslee, like California’s Governor Gavin Newsom, is mandating that his state become all-electric. In doing so, Inslee demonstrates serious myopia. He cannot see the ugly side of his wind, solar, and EV-mandated world.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashSuch comprehensive dependence on wind and solar requires vast acreage for turbines and panels. The result? The pathetic destruction of pristine landscapes.Further, after decades of experience around the … [Read more...]
Breakthrough! A Big Utility Says Net-Zero May Not Be Reliable
Dominion Energy, the big Virginia utility, has finally admitted that net-zero may not work. I have been writing about Dominion, which operates under the net-zero Virginia Clean Economy Act (VCEA), for a while now. VCEA requires Dominion to shut down all gas, oil, and coal-fired power by 2045.My point has been that VCEA cannot be done. Now Dominion has met me halfway, saying in their new Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) that maybe it cannot be done. So far, so good.In their new 2022 IRP, the VCEA … [Read more...]
