Terry Scanlon of the Capital Research Center leads his latest email this way: When you gas your car with 10% ethanol, you’re dragged into the Renewable Fuel Standard morass run by the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency).

It’s not enough that they mandated that toilets use so little water per flush that it often takes two, three, or more flushes to get rid of—well, you know. It’s not

Folks like those who stage events like the “Walk Against Warming” illustrated above think fighting climate change is a high priority. President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry say climate change is the greatest threat facing the world. But United Nations-sponsored worldwide polling suggests that how people answer the question, “How high a priority is

So climate alarmists want a rapid, mandatory shift from fossil fuels—chiefly coal and natural gas—to wind and solar to save us all from catastrophic global warming. What comes with that? The people of England and Wales have found out, and it isn’t pretty. Over a decade ago, the United Kingdom began a rigorous policy of
