Are We About to Lose 40% of our Species?
The preservationist group NatureServe just released a report concluding that some 40% of animal species in the US will go extinct in the near future due to climate change. Their predictions may turn out not to be quite accurate since other factors at work determine which species survive and which go the way of the dodo bird and ivory-billed woodpecker. The analysis the report depends on has been severely criticized for lack of rigor by Canadian and Finnish … [Read more...]
Get Ready for Higher Electricity Bills to Fund Vehicle Charging
Charging at home is a favored feature of electric vehicles (EVs). But public charging stations are needed for long trips and to maximize EV market penetration.

California: Atmospheric River and Misguided Climate Fear
For more than three weeks earlier this year, California was pummeled by a series of storms arriving one after another from the Pacific Ocean. Torrential rains, mudslides, power outages, and floods plague state residents from north of San Francisco down to Los Angeles, four hundred miles to the south. Scientists attribute this event to an “atmospheric river” condition in the Pacific Ocean. Many also claim that this phenomenon is due to human-caused climate change.According to the National Oceanic … [Read more...]

NOAA and Green Activists Condone Whale Sacrifice By Offshore Wind Industry
Reports are multiplying around the world: dead whales are washing up onto beaches in rapidly growing numbers.Why? Well, the New York Times ("a former newspaper"---Andrew Klavan) blames online shopping and climate change, an interesting take that spurred a humorous jab by the Manhattan Institute's Jonathan Lesser.Whales navigate by their God-given sonar systems. Other sonar signals, likely including those used by offshore wind developers to map the sea floor, mess with those systems, and whales … [Read more...]

The Economic Case for Net Zero Is Zero
Implementing net zero will depress the global economy more than the atmospheric warming that the campaign against carbon dioxide emissions is supposed to prevent, according to a comparison of research by recognized experts. In other words, abandoning efforts to eliminate the greenhouse gas emissions of fossil fuels likely would make virtually everybody richer.The comparison is presented in a short 12-minute video titled “How human disruptions impact GDP” by Dr. Lars Schernikau, an energy … [Read more...]
