So, President Joe Biden is taking 50 million barrels of oil out of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to cool the rapid rise in gasoline prices. Will it work?Not for long---if at all.We use about 20 million barrels per day. So 50 million is enough to supply all our oil for only about 2.5 days. Of course, we'll spread it over far more days, at far smaller quantities per day, but that's the total effect.Meanwhile, it's a complete misuse of the SPR, designed, when created in response to the Arab … [Read more...]
Allergies to Facts Make Politicians Hurt People
Did you know it is colder than normal in many parts of the world?This is under-reported by the mainstream media and man-made global warming alarmist government leaders. They are happy holding give-away parties and getting more votes.Scientists know that, rather than increased atmospheric CO2 causing temperature increase, additional CO2 in the atmosphere follows ocean temperature. Every child and adult knows this from watching "bubbly" leaving soda, sparkling wine, and beer as drinks warm.Global … [Read more...]
Getting It Right
In “The Theory of Gravitation” in his textbook Lectures on Physics, Richard Feynman provides an outstanding example of the development of the scientific method, a process for correcting errors and advancing knowledge of the physical world. The ancients observed the movement of the visible planets and the stars and deduced that the planets went around the sun, a concept rediscovered by mathematician and astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus in the early sixteenth century. Discovering how and why took … [Read more...]
India’s COP-26 promise of Net Zero by 2070 overshadowed by coal use
On COP26’s first day, India’s Prime Minister Modi announced that the world’s second largest coal consumer would become Net Zero by 2070 — a commitment that means almost nothing given realities of the subcontinent’s dependence on fossil fuels to meet the energy needs of 1.3 billion people.Though Modi’s efforts were praised by British PM Boris Johnson, the target of 2070 only reveals the country’s unwillingness to embrace any meaningful emission-reduction policy. Contrary to media reports, … [Read more...]
How Our Government Robs Us Blind
Western Arrogance—The Essence of COP26
I woke up this morning and learned that the United Nations has gone full existential, and African countries should be deeply offended. I wrote an piece that I’ll share with you called Western Arrogance, but even I didn’t appreciate just how arrogant the west truly is.This is disgusting and wrong. To use imagery of Africans in poverty to then suggest that signing up for climate goals will better their lives is nothing short of Malthusian. As Dr. Scott Tinker teaches, energy doesn’t end poverty, … [Read more...]
Lethal Carbon-Imperialism in Glasgow and DC
Climate alarmists intend to keep poor nations energy-deprived, impoverished, jobless, dyingDays before the twenty-sixth Conference of Parties in Glasgow, Scotland. Pope Francis and President Biden met in Rome to discuss “efforts grounded in respect for fundamental human dignity,” including “tackling the climate crisis and caring for the poor.” They should have read Climate Change: The Facts 2017 before they met, especially my chapter critiquing His Holiness’s energy and climate “ethics.” A key … [Read more...]
Shocking News About Climate Change in America
I got this email today:I am a student at City of Glasgow College and as part of the Cop26 summit we have been tasked to find comments on how climate change has affected your life and your country. We are looking for around 50-100 words.My response will probably come as a shock:Hard data from IPCC and NOAA (not GCMs, which grossly exaggerate CO2’s warming and its consequences) show no increase in frequency or severity of extreme weather in America (or the world); increasing financial losses from … [Read more...]
Climate Change Contributes to Another Year of Record Crop Production in India
One of the largest agricultural countries in the world, India, expects its highest summer crop production for 2021–2022.This comes at a critical juncture when energy shortage crippled food production in China. The record numbers will play a critical role in maintaining global food security.The record harvest also challenges claims that climate change will reduce global crop production.For example, the Observer Research Foundation—an organization that is partnered by Apple, Bill Gates, Uber, … [Read more...]
The Last COP-Out
For 26 futile years, the net-zero maniacs have wasted fuel, energy and taxpayer’s money to bite the hands that provide their food, energy, welfare and public sector jobs.Led by EU and AUKUS dreamers, they destroy reliable energy from coal, oil, nuclear, gas and hydro while forcing us to subsidise net-negative dreams like solar, wind, wave-power, CCUS, hot rocks, pumped hydro and hydrogen. All such speculative ventures should be funded by speculators, not taxpayers.COP-Out-26 illustrates to the … [Read more...]
