“But ye shall receive power after the Holy Ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” – Acts 1:8 As a college professor concerned with the broadening of my students’ compassionate understanding of oppressed people in other parts of the world, I have spent the last several weeks helping to plan an encampment. My students and I will spend our nights in tents that I personally … [Read more...]
Climate Change Is Normal and Natural, and Can’t Be Controlled
The following is a guest article by Frits Byron Soepyan. NASA claimed that “Earth is warming at an unprecedented rate” and “human activity is the principal cause.” Others proposed spending trillions of dollars to control the climate. But are we humans responsible for climate change? And what can we do about it? “The climate of planet Earth has never stopped changing since the Earth’s genesis, sometimes relatively rapidly, sometimes very slowly, but always surely,” … [Read more...]
EV’s Amount to a Gov’t Wealth Transfer You Pay For
Plug-in electric vehicles (EVs) are great so long as generous taxpayers can afford to buy them for us and we don’t plan long winter trips to visit wayward brother Bubba who barely eeks out enough poultry chicken feed to sell inflationary $11 sandwiches to other country rubes at his local bar and grill. According to an October 2023 Texas Public Policy Foundation report, "Overcharged Expectations: Unmasking True Costs of Electric Vehicles," as much as $48,000 of the real cost of an … [Read more...]
Spencer vs. Schmidt: My Response to RealClimate.org Criticisms
EN: Dr. Roy Spencer serves thoughtfully on the Cornwall Alliance Board. What follows is a response to Gavin Schmidt’s blog post at RealClimate.org entitled Spencer’s Shenanigans in which he takes issue with my claims in Global Warming: Observations vs. Climate Models. As I read through his criticism, he seems to be trying too hard to refute my claims while using weak (and even non-existent) evidence. To summarize my claims regarding the science of global warming: In Gavin’s post, he … [Read more...]
Is the Bell Tolling for EV Mania?
Electric vehicles have been all the rage among politicians at least since President Barack Obama’s first term in office, but they’ve never really caught on among the unwashed masses, who actually want their cars to deliver them to their destinations in comfort in a timely fashion, toting everything and everyone they might want to take along, without blowing up while parked and burning down their residences in the process. In truth, EVs had been tried and rejected long before that, largely … [Read more...]
Precise Temperatures But No Thermometers?
In early January, Roy Spencer and John Christy reported that:“And, as calendar year values go, 2023 was the warmest of the 45-year record with an average of +0.51 °C (+0.92 °F) outdoing 2016 which finished that year at +0.39 °C (+0.70 °F). This calendar year was also warmer than any other 12-month period which before 2023 was Dec 2015 to Nov 2016 at +0.41 °C (+0.73 °F). Because early 2023 was much cooler than now, we can expect further 12-month records over the next few months.”They also … [Read more...]
America’s Energy Scam: A Deliberate Exploitation of Humanity that Only Increases Emissions!
America is aggressively pursuing “green” electricity and actively phasing out crude oil to reduce emissions generated in America by deliberately increasing the worldwide exploitation of humanity, environmental degradation, and, ironically, the very emissions they aim to reduce. California Governor Gavin Newsom, President Joe Biden, and world leaders are not cognizant enough to know that wind turbines and solar panels only generate occasional electricity and are unable to manufacture tires, … [Read more...]
Evolution of the World’s Fuel Intensities
The following is a guest article by Samuel Furfari. A benchmark that explains why green NGOs want to promote energy sobriety The fashion for saving energy, which assumes that human behaviour can compensate for the inelasticity of energy demand, is not new. Only the name is. In 1924, when US President Calvin Coolidge proposed saving oil because he had been told that reserves would soon be exhausted, he devised a strategy called energy conservation. Though compassionate and generous, these … [Read more...]
Europe’s Green Nightmare May Soon Be Over
Elections for the European Parliament will be held in June, and big changes appear on the horizon. The Green parties, who won big in 2019 and pushed European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen to present an ambitious climate agenda, are in decline. Led by disgruntled (and targeted) farmers, voters in at least 18 of the EU’s 27 member nations are expected to express disapproval of EU policies at the ballot box. Perhaps the tiniest of the protests belongs to the European People’s Party … [Read more...]
Climate Agenda Makes Vital CO2 a Dangerous Pollutant
To get some sense of powerful political agenda influences on global climate and environmental policies, it's instructive to revisit the acid rain hysteria of the late 1960s, which led quite directly to the demonization of carbon dioxide (CO2) as a "climate pollutant." Photo: Creative Commons under Unsplash This second manufactured scare continues today, thanks to active assistance from "experts" who should — many probably do — know better. Both agendas have involved the same … [Read more...]
