Guest Column by Richard Lindzen and William Happer SUMMARY At the outset it is important to understand that carbon dioxide has two relevant properties, as a creator of food and oxygen, and as a greenhouse gas (GHG). As to food and oxygen, carbon dioxide is essential to nearly all life on earth by creating food

Guest column by Ronald Stein and John McBratney “Green” and “Net Zero” policymakers mistakenly believe that wind and solar renewable energy will replace fossil fuel energy. From the 16th to the 19th centuries whale oil was inedible and was used principally for lighting, lubrication and the manufacture of soap, textiles, jute, varnish, explosives and paint. Whales

Whenever “experts are shocked” they usually have marginalized or ignored altogether factors wrongly assumed to have no influence over their hypotheses, theories or beliefs. Nowhere is this more evident than in climate science where changes in geophysical phenomenon continue to defy assumptions and forecasts presented by some of the most highly paid and influential scientists

Guest Column by Bruce Everett and Gordon Tomb The recent Nature article, “Carbon Majors and the Scientific Case for Climate Liability,” tries to further the alarmists’ dream of pinning alleged harms of “extreme” weather on the world’s largest producers of fossil fuels. Christopher W. Callahan and Justin S. Mankin, both at Dartmouth College when their article was prepared, accept –

An April 2025 report by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) affirms what critics of President Joe Biden’s wind-energy spree have long argued: offshore wind is an expensive, environmentally damaging solution in search of a problem.

Like many developing economies, India faces coercion from the United Nations and Europe to conform to climate policies, especially through the imposition of carbon taxes on imports into their countries. But Delhi is not about to bend to such tactics.  “If they (EU and U.K.) put in a carbon tax, we’ll retaliate,” said India’s Union

In a slow but steady retreat, the world’s most powerful financial institutions are abandoning their once-lauded climate pledges in the beginning of a long-overdue correction. From BlackRock’s quiet exit to the mass defection of U.S. banking giants, the climate bandwagon is losing passengers. And what replaces it could finally bring a necessary focus on real-world

Recent price spikes in the egg market reflected recurring shortages, well in excess of the normal fluctuations when eggs climb every winter. The accumulated inflation during the previous Biden administration (the COVID surge in money supply) suggests that shell eggs, like so many other food commodities, were disrupted. Year-to-year comparisons show poultry and eggs to
