On the heels of the Vatican's announcement that the Pope intends to urge support for an international agreement to fight global warming by reducing human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from fossil-fuel energy use, a new peer-reviewed scientific paper reveals powerful evidence that CO2 emissions contribute far less to global warming than widely thought. The paper, "Why models run hot: results from an irreducibly simple climate model," appeared in the January 8 edition of Science Bulletin … [Read more...]

COP-20 Lima: A Total Failure?
The Lima Climate Conference ended Sunday with what can be seen as a failure for environmental alarmist groups. The 20th Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP-20) included 11,000 delegates from over 190 countries. This horde descended on Peru for two solid weeks to continue discussions on a climate treaty before the Paris conference next year and only came to a compromise after running 30 hours past the scheduled end time. The goal of COP-20 … [Read more...]
Big Green at it Again: Deciding Scientific Outcomes Before Doing Research
As if Climategate wasn’t enough, the pseudo-scientific community has now given us BeeGate. Environmentalists blame neonicotinoid pesticides for bee colony collapse, an assumption already disproven by scientific research and field studies. This is not to say that more studies could not or should not be done, but in the case of BeeGate there is an ideology at work that decided the outcome. According to a memo released Tuesday, four European scientists decided they wanted to stop the use of … [Read more...]
Could a melting Antarctica threaten the Sunshine State?
Reuters recently warned us of rising seas based on accelerated melting of the West Antarctic ice sheet. If true, Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico waters could flood Florida’s beaches in as little as a few decades. On the heels of the National Climate Assessment (NCA), White House adviser John Podesta is corralling public support for EPA’s CO2 regulations that will increase everybody’s electric rates without significantly reducing future temperatures. A pillar in his argument is CO2’s alleged role in … [Read more...]

Website Visitor Accuses Us of Lies and Propaganda; We Respond
Recently a visitor to our website wrote us: Please show me the hard science behind your 'beliefs'. I just want you to know that as a Christian AND environmentalist, I am appalled at the lies you are propagating. Please help me understand your motivation. Is anyone on your staff a trained scientist? And please do not put me on a mailing list and send me any propaganda. I do not support your organization.

Testimony To the United States Senate Environment & Public Works Committee June 3, 2014
“When scientific views come under political attack, so too does independent thinking and good policy-making” Read Dr. Legates's Full Testimony Here (PDF). Over the years, I have applied for several federal grants. Two in particular, submitted to NASA and the USDA (the latter involved using precipitation estimates by weather radar to enhance agricultural planning which had nothing to do with climate change), were never reviewed. It is not that I have received bad reviews; indeed, I have … [Read more...]
University of Delaware Threatens Cornwall Senior Fellow’s Academic Freedom
Apparently the law doesn’t apply to everyone equally in Delaware. Climate alarmists get protection; climate skeptics—don’t. When the Competitive Enterprise Institute filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the University of Delaware (UD) for information related to three faculty members who had as part of their employment done work for the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, UD Vice President and General Counsel Lawrence White refused on the grounds that the … [Read more...]
