The Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC AR6) has been released, much to the excitement of and fanfare from the mainstream media. It was expected that gloom and despair would permeate the document – unless, of course, we adopt a draconian carbon-dioxide-reduction strategy – and the IPCC did not fail to deliver.So, where do these extreme climate scenarios originate? One could assume that they could be “made up”; after all, climate change … [Read more...]
Countdown to COP26 on the road to failure
It is less than 60 days until COP26 convenes in Glasgow. We can expect a flood of climate horror stories (including flooding). But there will also be some discussion of the actual issues, so here is a brief breakdown of the big four.Keep in mind that the alarmists have a bit of a civil war going on, between what I call the moderates and the radicals. The moderates have been at it for over 30 years and the radicals are fed up. The moderates now have a net zero target of 2050, while the radicals … [Read more...]
One Overhyped Crisis Deserves Another
Anthropogenic climate change is real. It is not a an existential threat---pace Greenpeace, the Climate Action Network, and the world's most famous climate scientist, 18-year-old Greta Thunberg, who demand a hundred-trillion-dollar makeover of the global energy infrastructure to achieve a fraction of a degree of global temperature reduction at the end of this century.COVID-19 is real. It is not an existential threat---pace the WHO, the CDC, and your local mayor or school board, who demand … [Read more...]

Unmasking the Latest Bipartisan (and Dangerous) Climate Bill
It is summer in the United States, which means temperatures are hot and western forests and grasslands are burning—as has been the case as long as people have lived here. In our current age, however, in which there is alleged to be a political “solution” to nearly every problem, politicians believe they can use governmental policies to give us better weather and change the nature of wildfires.So far, Congress, state legislators, and the Biden administration have launched a blizzard of new … [Read more...]
CLIMATE ALARMISTS CALL FOR GLOBAL ‘ECO-DICTATORSHIP’
Every so often the truth seeps out that significantly reducing global greenhouse gas emissions will require enormous sacrifices, meaning profound losses of welfare on people's part. Bear that in mind when you hear politicians’ promises of “net zero by X date” or “50 or 80 percent carbon dioxide reductions by year X.”In the Western world, the energy cuts and lifestyle changes required to hit net zero will mean going back to early-1800s levels of emissions. This will force enormously negative … [Read more...]
New Climate Report Got You Shakin’ in Your Boots?
Every year like clockwork, starting in late July and running through to November, mainstream media around the world start hyping the message: your sinful use of fossil fuels to heat or cool your home, cook your food, power your car or truck, make and market and use your food, clothing, shelter, communications, transportation, health care, and all the other things that keep you alive and healthy will make the world overheat, and then you'll be sorry! And this year, the United Nations' (UN) … [Read more...]
Swiss Scientist: Play My Way or I’ll Take My Ball and Go Home!
That's the gist of what Swiss climate scientist Sonia Seneviratne told CBC News about why she may refuse to participate in any future assessment reports from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).It's not that the reports don't let her say what she wants to say. She's been a lead author about extreme weather in three of the six assessment reports.No, it's that policymakers around the world don't just take her word for it and do what she says must be done."There is no point for … [Read more...]
Why “Follow the Money” Doesn’t Cut It
Dr. David Kreutzer, an economist formerly with the Heritage Foundation and now with the Institute for Energy Research, was Cornwall Alliance's livestream guest July 27 to discuss why President Joe Biden's "Net Zero by 2050" plan not only won't succeed but can't. (You can watch it on Facebook or YouTube.)When I announced this on Facebook, a friend from back in high school days---a fellow Christian and sincere person---commented, "No, thank you. I prefer to hear and read people with expertise who … [Read more...]
Comments On Federal Scientific Integrity
Guest column by Kenneth Haapala, President, The Science and Environmental Policy Project (SEPP)“It is one thing to impose drastic measures and harsh economic penalties when an environmental problem is clear-cut and severe. It is quite another to do so when the environmental problem is largely hypothetical and not substantiated by careful observations. This is definitely the case with global warming.” - Frederick Seitz, 17th president of the United States National Academy of SciencesThis paper … [Read more...]
