Does the San Francisco Jury Verdict against Monsanto Spell Doom for Roundup?

by E. Calvin Beisner

Now that jurors in a San Francisco court have awarded a man $289 million in damages in his lawsuit against Monsanto (and its parent company Bayer) claiming that his exposure to Monsanto's Roundup weedkiller gave him cancer, some people wonder whether the Cornwall Alliance will reverse its view that Roundup (the brand name for the active ingredient glyphosate) is not a carcinogen. The answer: No. The reason: Because the case provides no convincing evidence that glyphosate causes … [Read more...]

Does Russia Deploy American Green Groups as Pawns?

by Vijay Jayaraj

The Trump administration, despite being accused of facilitating Russian collusion in the 2016 Presidential election, is, with the rest of America, actually a victim of Russian sabotage. American environmental groups’ threats to halt energy projects and defence operations, long a problem, have grown recently, thanks in part to Russian support. They are now more dangerous to energy security than ever. While the media remain obsessed with “Russia collusion” in the 2016 elections, they ignore … [Read more...]

The Curbelo Carbon Tax as Wealth Redistribution

by Benjamin Zycher

No matter how you look at it, the Florida Republican’s new proposal is bad policy. Environmental policy as a tool of wealth redistribution is nothing new. The latest example is a proposal for a greenhouse-gas (GHG) tax just introduced by Representative Carlos Curbelo (R., Fla.). Curbelo’s tax would start at $24 per metric ton of GHG emissions, growing 2 percent per year above inflation and an additional $2 per ton every two years if emission-reduction goals are not met. Those goals rise … [Read more...]

Scandals and Scott Pruitt

by William Anderson

With EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt’s recent resignation, the scandal talk heats up again. According to CNN and the leftist Vox site, Pruitt had engaged in a number of scandalous activities, and even the conservative National Review had demanded Pruitt’s resignation before the publication permitted a guest column by a Pruitt associate that raised questions about whether or not he had engaged in disreputable behavior at all. For example, the Washington Post reported that Pruitt used his … [Read more...]

Brett Kavanaugh—A Strong Choice for the Supreme Court

by Megan (Toombs) Kinard

Tuesday night President Donald Trump announced that Brett Kavanaugh was his choice for his second appointment to the Supreme Court of the United States of America. This choice was met with wailing and gnashing of teeth by left-leaning pundits and activists claiming this would be the end of a woman's "choice" to kill her pre-born baby. It is worth noting this racket would be made by the choice of anyone on President Trump's list. It was, after all, one of his campaign promises to appoint … [Read more...]

Cornwall Alliance Statement on EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt’s Resignation

by E. Calvin Beisner

On July 5, President Donald Trump announced the resignation of Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt. The Cornwall Alliance was pleased to support Mr. Pruitt’s nomination in 2017, and we have valued his service to the American people since then. He has brought to the EPA, which in past years frequently overstretched the statutory limits of its authority, a strong commitment to our Constitutional order. Mr. Pruitt has honored the separation of powers and worked … [Read more...]

Joint Letter to President Trump Urging the Rejection of the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol

by Megan (Toombs) Kinard

As noted in the letter below, the Montreal Protocol was created originally to replace the use of certain refrigerants with hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) in air conditioners and refrigerators because of the belief that those refrigerants were depleting the ozone layer. The Kigali Amendment now would require that HFC's be replaced with hydrofluoro-olefins (HFO). HFO's cost ten times what HFC's cost, and would greatly hamper the spread of refrigeration and air conditioning to the developing world, in … [Read more...]

Defending Scott Pruitt from Scurrilous Journalists and Politicians

by E. Calvin Beisner

Last year, the Cornwall Alliance produced an open letter supporting Scott Pruitt's nomination to become EPA Administrator. We rested our judgment on the facts that As Oklahoma Attorney General Pruitt had demonstrated his legal expertise in successful litigation to require corporations—including the energy corporations so prominent in his state’s economy—to abide by environmental laws and regulations. He had publicly expressed his conviction that the EPA’s role is not to create law through … [Read more...]

Keeping People in the Dark is Easy—Just Keep Them in the Dark

by E. Calvin Beisner

It's long been clear that electricity, by putting enormous power at the fingertips of billions of ordinary people, has been crucial to their conquest of poverty. Just now, though, a short article by energy journalist Robert Bryce turned a new light on for me: Electricity is crucial to keeping people free, too. Why? Because information and its rapid, unrestricted sharing feed freedom. And electricity facilitates that rapid sharing of information---through telephones, radio, television, the … [Read more...]

Take Secret Science Out of the EPA: An Open Letter in Support of Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science

by E. Calvin Beisner

Click here to sign the Open Letter. The federal Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposed rule “Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science,” banning the agency’s use of “secret science” in formulating regulations, should be adopted. It is badly needed to assure American taxpayers that the EPA is truly acting in their best interests. Objections are groundless. Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science (STRS) provides that “When promulgating significant regulatory … [Read more...]
