Recently the Cornwall Alliance sent to over 2,900 faculty members of Christian colleges and universities around the country an email asking them to consider endorsing our An Open Letter on Climate Change to the People, their Local Representatives, the State Legislatures and Governors, the Congress, and the President of the United States of America. The email had the name of Dr. Roy Spencer, Cornwall Alliance Senior Fellow and Principal Research Scientist in Climatology at the University of … [Read more...]
How NOAA Lies with Global Warming Statistics
A subscriber to Cornwall Alliance’s e-newsletter recently wrote asking us if we have replies to the various graphs at “Climate Change: Global Temperature,” on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Climate.gov web page. Oh my goodness the misrepresentations of facts in those graphs are awful! Preparing refutations/analyses of all the graphs there would be a very long and complex project for which I simply cannot take time. But let’s take this one—probably the most … [Read more...]
Georgetown University Climate Symposium Includes Prominent Neopagan Speaker
Wish I’d heard of Georgetown University Berkley Center’s “Symposium on Religion and Climate Change“ earlier. Perhaps Cornwall Alliance could have had someone there to offer a contrasting perspective---something most meetings seem rather loathe to entertain. Alas, I only learned of it about an hour before it was to begin. Aside from the usual problem of such conferences having scientific blinders on, assiduously avoiding the need to interact with the serious scientific objections to climate … [Read more...]
How does Climate Alarmism Drive Human Trafficking?
Some climate alarmists believe global warming leads to more human trafficking. The truth is quite different. To prevent what they believe is dangerous manmade global warming, climate alarmists want to reduce CO2 emissions. This requires reducing fossil fuel consumption, which can be achieved partly by reducing consumption per person, but also by reducing the number of persons consuming. That requires reducing population growth and eventually population itself. This becomes a rationale for … [Read more...]
China’s One-Child Policy Ends—Time for a Little (Yes, Little) Celebration
The Communist Chinese government's Xinhua news agency announced today that the government is abolishing that country's one-child policy. The policy, which Susan Yoshihara, senior vice president for research at the Center for Family & Human Rights and co-editor of Population Decline and the Remaking of Great Power Politics has called "the world's worst law," "resulted in more murders than any other law in history," according to Yoshihara---over 13 million abortions per year in China, many of … [Read more...]
What Threatens Liberty and Increases Abortion, Human Trafficking, Government Debt, and Poverty?
Conservatives, Christian and non-Christian alike, share concerns about civil and religious liberty, abortion and the sanctity of human life, human trafficking and pornography and how they damage families, fiscal responsibility in government, and poverty. What many don’t know is that there are links between climate alarmism and every one of these issues. Let me take them in reverse order. First, climate alarmism undermines fiscal responsibility in government. Not only do governments … [Read more...]
Humans Are Special in the Eyes of God
Christian scientists discuss the image of God in humankind, and the importance of trying to look at human beings from God's. All human beings are special. How is this relevant to the climate debate? Alarmists denounce humankind as a "cancer on the earth" and claim that the earth is over populated. Many climate change policies perpetuate poverty and condemn millions to continued suffering, and an early death. Watch the video to learn more. … [Read more...]
Climate Skeptics: Bought By Fossil Fuel Companies?
The 30+ scholars---scientists, economists, theologians, and more, interviewed for Cornwall Alliance's Greener on the Other Side: Climate Alarmism---Facts, Not Fear video series---address in this latest video the charge that they're in the pocket of "Big Oil" or the fossil fuel industry in general. A few quotes: "The idea that I'm getting paid off by somebody else is amusing. My principal source of income is the Social Security Administration."---Thomas P. Sheahen, Ph.D., Physics, Director, … [Read more...]
The Radical Religion of Environmentalism
Soaring Eagle Radio with Mike Spaulding just posted a podcast interview with me titled "The Radical Religion of Environmentalism." We ranged pretty far and wide---and deep---in the conversation. One important takeaway: we must never conflate Biblical earth stewardship with environmentalism. The two are mutually exposed from---pardon the pun---the ground up. Hear it here: http://soaringeagleradio.com/?p=231. Featured image courtesy of Soaring Eagle Radio. … [Read more...]
20 Scientists Call for Prosecution of CAGW Critics—Judith Curry Puts them to Shame
Recently 20 scientists, firm believers in CAGW and proponents of policies to reduce it, sent a letter to the White House supporting a call by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) for criminal prosecution under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) act of scientists who disagree with them. Hello?! Anybody ever heard of the First Amendment---you know, that stuff about freedom of speech and of the press? Or, for those who don't like America's Constitution and Bill of Rights, … [Read more...]
