Rather I mention it … [Read more...]

EV’s Amount to a Gov’t Wealth Transfer You Pay For
Plug-in electric vehicles (EVs) are great so long as generous taxpayers can afford to buy them for us and we don’t plan long winter trips to visit wayward brother Bubba who barely eeks out enough poultry chicken feed to sell inflationary $11 sandwiches to other country rubes at his local bar and grill.According to an October 2023 Texas Public Policy Foundation report, "Overcharged Expectations: Unmasking True Costs of Electric Vehicles," as much as $48,000 of the real cost of an … [Read more...]

Spencer vs. Schmidt: My Response to RealClimate.org Criticisms
EN: Dr. Roy Spencer serves thoughtfully on the Cornwall Alliance Board. What follows is a response to Gavin Schmidt’s blog post at RealClimate.org entitled Spencer’s Shenanigans in which he takes issue with my claims in Global Warming: Observations vs. Climate Models.

Because early 2023 was much cooler than now, we can expect further 12-month records over the next few months.”They also … [Read more...]
