This is a guest article by Donna Laframboise.Last summer the National Association of Evangelicals, an organization largely in America but with some representation in my country, Canada, published a report that urges Christians to care deeply about climate change. Titled Loving the Least of These, it relies on the work of a United Nations (UN) entity to make its case.Having written two books about that entity—the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)—I was sorry to … [Read more...]
FERC’s Role in the Offshore Wind Stampede
I am looking at a fat study titled “The Benefit and Urgency of Planned Offshore Transmission: Reducing the Costs of and Barriers to Achieving U.S. Clean Energy Goals." The term FERC occurs a whopping 92 times. Not surprisingly the 103-page report is mistitled. It is actually about the onshore transmission of offshore wind power, not offshore transmission. The urgency is that the present power system cannot handle all that offshore juice coming ashore. FERC is in the crosshairs because they are … [Read more...]
BOOK REVIEW: ‘Escape From Model Land’
In the early days of my career in meteorology, which included determining the impact of air pollution emissions using mathematical models, one of my bosses, concerned about the outcome of a computer model I was using to assess a contentious industrial operation, asked me: “What will the model show?” I replied facetiously: “Well, what do you want it to show?”In no way was I going to manipulate a model to get the results I or anyone else wanted. But the point is that models can produce results … [Read more...]
Elevated Living Standards Contradict Climate Doomsayers
Climate protestors destroying artworks and gluing themselves to roads without offering a shred of evidence for their alarm exhibit a malicious stupidity that is blind to the actual state of the world.Why do these activists not hold up placards with graphs, histograms, and Venn diagrams? Because actual data show that life today is much better than at any time in human history. Ignored is the fact that the change in climate has made Earth better and helped to advance humanity.Image: Creative … [Read more...]
Newly Released Survey Revealing Evangelicals Most Skeptical About “Climate Change” Is Evidence of Cornwall Alliance’s Influence
On November 17, the Pew Research Center released the results of a new survey about Americans’ views on the environment, particularly climate change.Pew’s report on the survey results says they showed that “highly religious Americans overwhelmingly say God gave humans a duty to protect and care for the Earth, but far fewer see climate change as a serious problem.” Specifically: 92% (including 86% of evangelicals) say God gave us that duty, but only 42 percent consider climate change an … [Read more...]
An African Leader Courageously Stands Up to Green Globalist Elites
For eight years, from 1992 to 2000, I taught at Covenant College, in Lookout Mountain, Georgia. One of my colleagues there was someone who since the early 1980s has been one of my dearest friends and greatest advisors, Dr. Henry Krabbendam, a Bible professor, theologian, and evangelist extraordinaire, who for nearly 50 years has trained thousands of students and adults in explaining the gospel one-on-one or in street preaching. I had the privilege of joining Henry for some of it one year. What … [Read more...]
Thoughtlessness Leads to Tragedy for Man and Beast
The adage “familiarity breeds contempt” applies to behavior around wild animals, whether in herds of bison or elk, or a roving bear, cougar, or gator.Wild animals larger than an average-sized dog should be given a safe, wide berth, as a matter of course. They are not part of a petting zoo.As the 2022 tourist season draws to its close, several untoward incidents, some involving reckless behavior around large animals, have been reported that, unfortunately for the humans involved, proved dangerous … [Read more...]
Floods Are Nothing New
This is a guest article by Viv Forbes.There is nothing unusual about floods, fires, droughts, homelessness, and hunger – they have always been part of the human story. But satellite technology allows us to track them better and our worldwide media revels in disaster reporting, bringing tearfully tragic scenes into every living room, every night.Population growth means that more people are affected by weather events, but there is no evidence that floods and droughts are getting worse.Written … [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 prices, … [Read more...]
Yes, It’s Hot—It’s Summer!
It is summer in the Northern Hemisphere, and America’s mainstream media once again are blaming summer heat waves on anthropogenic global warming. Are they right?We recognize that climate changes, because climate always changes. Characteristics of one year may make it warmer, or cooler, than other years.This year, we are experiencing our third consecutive year of La Niña—a substantial cooling of waters in the central Pacific Ocean due, in part, to an increase in winds across the tropical Pacific. … [Read more...]
