News reports of summer heatwaves often perversely misrepresent a modern climate favorable to human flourishing in order to fearmonger the false narrative of catastrophic global warming. The geological epoch of the Holocene, which roughly corresponds to the last 11,700 years, is a time of warmth that has been vital in fostering the diversity and adaptability of life on our planet – not a curse as popularly portrayed. The relevance of the Holocene interglacial period to humanity’s survival … [Read more...]
Let Them Eat Solar Panels

According to a transcript of his speech that can be found on the White House’s website, Biden said: “We have plans to build a railroad from the Pacific all the way across the Indian Ocean. We have plans to build in — in Angola one of the largest solar plants in the world. I … [Read more...]

The Religious Cult of Climate Catastrophism
The following is a guest article by Andrew Montford. I have been working in climate and energy for nearly 15 years, and it’s fair to say that it’s not often I find something that makes me radically change the way I look at the domain. But a new book, by Andy A West, has done just that. The Grip of Culture makes the case that climate catastrophism is cultural – akin to religion or one of the extreme political movements that have assailed the world from time to time. This is not an … [Read more...]
Great Car Reset: Biden’s EPA to Release Strict New Fed Emissions Standard
The Great Car Reset has arrived: Our transportation system is being intentionally collapsed; (and our freedom of movement is being stripped away) EVs are to be forced upon YOU without a vote! This is the planned rationing of vehicles. The planned rationing of American cars. That’s the only way this plan makes sense. The only result will be shortages of cars and a completely altered used car market. You can look to Cuba to find out what it’s like to have a raging used car market … [Read more...]
Some Like It Hot – Others Like It Cold
The drivel from air-conditioned mainstream media newsrooms has reached new levels of guffaw with the “shocking” headlines that the Fourth of July was the hottest day on Earth in “as many as 125,000 years” – breaking a record set on July 3. Hmmm. Really? Or is this just hype to avoid mentioning the shortfall of patriotic fireworks, replaced by drones across much of the Home of the Brave (not so much.) Here’s what we know IS true. In many places, including central Texas, it was … [Read more...]
Wrong, AgFunder News, Climate Change Is Not Harming Crop Productivity
The following is a guest article by Linnea Lueken. A recent post by AgFunder News, a news site that covers “foodtech” and “agtech” startups and venture capital topics, reports that climate change is harming the growth in crop productivity. This is false. The post largely parrots claims made in the latest U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Sixth Synthesis Report that climate change threatens food production. However, actual global food production data show no sign that crop … [Read more...]

The following is a guest article by Linnea Lueken.

Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash Over the Past Two Years: Energy prices have continued to rise under President Joe Biden’s radical energy and climate agenda.

The EV Kool-Aid Acid Test
In his 1968 book The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, author Tom Wolfe portrayed Ken Kesey as a man seeking to create a new religion. Kesey’s followers and peers – the “Merry Pranksters” – sought to create a new society based on psychedelic transcendence. But it all started thanks to a CIA-sponsored drug study in which Kesey was given LSD. Mary Barra, the CEO of General Motors, apparently finds driving an electric vehicle (EV) to be as thrilling as one of Kesey’s LSD trips. In a … [Read more...]
Why GMO Food Crops Are a Blessing From God
Some Christians argue that Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are unsafe because they are unnatural. I'd like to challenge that thinking. I think every Christian should welcome genetically modified (GM) crops as God's gift to the world – especially to the poor. Here are some reasons to welcome GM crops in our quest to end hunger and poverty. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash The godly beginnings of plant genetics Humans, using our God-inspired ingenuity, have been modifying … [Read more...]
