How far will people go to fight climate change? You might have thought you'd seen the limits. Think again.Banning fossil fuels and prescribing "renewable energy" is so last century. Urging vegetarianism or veganism is so last decade. Pushing for population control is so last year. Embracing abortion is so yesterday.If you really want to be cutting edge, you need to think about family. As in, your uncle Jim and cousin Mary.As in, eating them after they die.That, after all, would reduce your … [Read more...]

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.

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.

This attack is a … [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 fuels—crude oil, … [Read more...]

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.
