Obama’s “Climate Education and Literacy Initiative”: How Do You Spell “I-N-D-O-C-T-R-I-N-A-T-I-O-N”?

With Obamacare obviously failing to provide promised affordable health care and falling apart in the face of legal challenges and states’ refusal to participate, it’s becoming increasingly clear that President Obama has decided to make ending “climate change” his legacy. “If you believe, like I do, that something has to be done on this, then […]

Billionaire Tom Steyer Spends $20 million on Televised Smear Campaigns

Originally Published on Townhall.com Tom Steyer is perpetually in the news–promising to raise $100 million to fight climate skeptics in this campaign cycle. Well, he is fighting, but not with $100 million (he’s had trouble finding backers for his super PAC NextGen Climate Action). Tom Steyer has thus far spent $20 million on TV ads that

Climate Consensus? Nonsense!

So, someone privately messaged us saying her friend had posted this article, and she (who messaged us) wondered how we’d respond. Okay, we give up. We’ll never persuade people like Slate.com’s Phil Plait. Not if this article, and this and this typify his thought processes. His failure to dig a little deeper, as any good journalist should (which suggests how few good

NASA’s Children’s Climate Change Website, and the book 1984: Creating Spies One Child at a Time

What would you say if your child accused you of a thought crime, and turned you in to the thought police? Would you say it was ridiculous? Perhaps you would say, “There is no ‘thought crime’ in the United States.” Surely your children would never try to accuse you of a crime or try to change your behavior. Well,

University of Delaware Threatens Cornwall Senior Fellow’s Academic Freedom

Apparently the law doesn’t apply to everyone equally in Delaware. Climate alarmists get protection; climate skeptics—don’t. When the Competitive Enterprise Institute filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the University of Delaware (UD) for information related to three faculty members who had as part of their employment done work for the United Nations Intergovernmental

What’s Incredible? Learning to Read Science Articles with a Critical Eye

Almost every day, we are assaulted with “studies” purporting to have found correlations, connections, links, or ties between causes and effects. In 1998 Dr. Andrew Wakefield claimed that exposure to MMR vaccine causes autism. That assertion still reverberates across Europe and the U.S., but how reliable is Wakefield’s study? What about the claim that increased

Science Class? Or Religious Humanist Recruiting Ground?

Where is Dr. Mauerbry when we need her? Thirty-seven years ago, in a freshman college course on physical anthropology, the professor required every student to write a term paper on a topic of his choice. I said I’d like to write on scientific evidences against Darwinian, naturalistic evolution. “This is a science course, not a

Theism, Darwinism, and Environmentalism in a Lab Coat: Next Generation Science Standards Coming to YOUR State Soon!

Last month the Kansas State Board of Education voted to make Kansas the third state (following Rhode Island and Kentucky) to adopt the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). The “voluntary” (until adopted by state boards of education) NGSS are the brainchild of Achieve, Inc., a non-profit organization founded in 1996 by various state governors and business leaders and
