As the Paris climate agreement pushes for more and more renewable installments globally, reports of failure of installed renewables, especially wind and solar, are also becoming increasingly common. Nobody wishes for wind and solar to fail. After all, billions of dollars have been invested in them. I, like many others, desire to see renewables strengthen the existing energy infrastructure globally. Sadly, and inevitably, though, the drawbacks and limitations of wind and solar keep … [Read more...]
A Sad Tale of a Wealthy Millennial’s Moral Confusion
This article was originally published in the American Spectator where it remained in the top 5 articles read multiple days in a row. A few years back my wife heard a young woman share that she had felt guilty for being able to go out to dinner with friends in Chicago because she knew her mother, in South Africa, was struggling to scrape together her own supper. When she had told her mother this during a phone call, her mother had rebuked her. “How dare you spit in God’s … [Read more...]
El Paso Shooter’s Extreme Environmentalism Deserves Condemnation
The manifesto that the El Paso shooter posted before his deadly rampage reveals that, along with hate for immigrants, he held a radicalized view of mankind’s relationship to nature. The manifesto itself was titled “The Inconvenient Truth About Me,” an apparent homage to the many false narratives presented in Al Gore’s climate “documentary.” The first two sentences pretty much sum up the four-page screed: “In general, I support the Christchurch shooter and his manifesto. This attack is … [Read more...]
Solar Energy’s Surprising Sources
Whenever I hear someone praising solar energy or electric cars to the exclusion of fossil fuels, the pragmatist in me cringes. Aside from the fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants and possibly the formation of methane deep in the earth's core from “non-biological processes … creating stable reserves of fuel within the much more extreme conditions of Earth's mantle,” virtually all of the power we depend on comes from the sun. The Earth's vast resources of fossil … [Read more...]

Fraud and corruption bring big payoffs
California judges provide stage for kangaroo court justice over Roundup weedkiller San Francisco area juries have awarded cancer patients some $80 million each, based on claims that the active ingredient in Roundup weedkiller, caused their cancer – and that Bayer-Monsanto negligently or deliberately failed to warn consumers that the glyphosate it manufactures is carcinogenic.

The Spectacular Cricket World Cup and The Climate Undertone
The cricket world cup ended earlier this month after an amazing final between the hosts England and New Zealand. The tournament entertained fans across the world, but not without drama. Rain and the unusually cold start to the summer resulted in cancellation of key games in the earlier part of the tournament. It revealed a larger climate truth, one that is contrary to the propaganda peddled by the UK’s liberal mainstream media. Cricket is very similar to baseball. Pitchers pitch the … [Read more...]
Climate Alarmists Make Evangelical College Students the Bull’s Eye
For over a decade, evangelicals have been the most skeptical subset of the American population about claims of catastrophic, anthropogenic global warming (CAGW). Don’t count on their staying that way. Recently Physics World reported on an experiment conducted at three evangelical colleges to see how students’ views about global warming/climate change would shift if they viewed a professionally done one-hour presentation designed to persuade them that it’s real, mainly human-induced, … [Read more...]
What If Evangelical Students Heard More than One Side of the Global Warming Debate?
Two years ago, evangelical environmental law professor John Murdock wrote in First Things that in 2012 former Evangelical Environmental Network head Jim Ball, author of Global Warming and the Risen Lord, “speaking at the World Wildlife Fund in D.C., [proclaimed] it a ‘fool’s errand’ to try to reach the right side of the evangelical spectrum” with the message that human-induced global warming is real and dangerous enough to justify enormously costly policies to curb it. Lately some … [Read more...]
Fox News Quotes Cornwall Scholars against “Five most over-the-top climate warnings”
Maxim Lott at Fox News lists 5 "most over-the-top climate warnings," and in discussing them he quotes two Cornwall Alliance network scholars. The five warnings---all bogus---are that: Warming causes declining human birth rates (Morning Consult).We have "12 years left to live" because of it (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez---and lots of her acolytes in and out of Congress).Warming causes more tornadoes (Ocasio-Cortez, Al Gore, and others).Warming causes Indian tigers to eat more people (website … [Read more...]
