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 entirely new … [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 because … [Read more...]
Biden’s 67% EV Policy: a Dictatorial Attack on the American Driver and the US Grid
Biden's proposed mandate of 67% EVs in the 2030s is a dictatorial attack on the American driver and the U.S. grid that will:1. Force Americans to drive inferior cars.2. Place massive new demand for reliable electricity on a grid that is declining in reliable electricity supply.China dominates the supply chains of many critical minerals, and given the environmental policies of the Biden administration, this will not change in favor of U.S. mining anytime soon.1Biden’s EPA is planning to dictate … [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 HOT on … [Read more...]

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 recent social … [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 UnsplashThe godly beginnings of plant geneticsHumans, using our God-inspired ingenuity, have been modifying wild crops into … [Read more...]
Senate Budget Committee Hearing: JC responds
The recent Senate hearing was a sad example of what passes for debate and deliberations by the U.S. Senate. In any event, it provides an interesting case study of why the U.S. cannot bridge the partisan divide and figure out how to deal sensibly with the climate change issue.In case you missed it, the Chair of the Senate Budget, Sheldon Whitehouse, has immortalized on youtube his questioning of me at the end of the Hearing: Chairman Whitehouse Presses GOP Witness in Budget … [Read more...]
Epic Fail in America’s Heartland: Climate Models Greatly Overestimate Corn Belt Warming
For the last decade, I’ve been providing long-range U.S. Corn Belt forecasts to a company that monitors and forecasts global grain production and market forces. My continuing theme has been, “don’t believe gloom and doom forecasts for the future of the U.S. Corn Belt.”The climate models relied upon by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) are known to overestimate warming compared to observations. Depending upon the region (global? U.S.?), temperature metric … [Read more...]
Italy Returns to Nuclear Sanity. Shouldn’t We?
The Italian parliament, demonstrating confidence in Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, this week formally backed her plan to reintroduce nuclear power plants into Italy’s energy mix, reversing the nation’s 1987 moratorium on nuclear power. Meanwhile, energy-starved Germany is feeling the pinch from shuttering all of its 17 nuclear power plants.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashThe U.S. has closed 11 nuclear reactors since 2013, with another eight of the 94 remaining reactors scheduled … [Read more...]
