Original Endorsements, by Category While our signatures express our endorsement only of the declaration “Protect the Poor: Ten Reasons to Oppose Harmful Climate Change Policies” and do not imply agreement with every point in A Call to Truth, Prudence, and Protection of the Poor 2014: The Case against Harmful Climate Policies Gets Stronger, we believe that document provides ample justification for the declaration. We call on scholars, experts, leaders, and citizens to join us in signing … [Read more...]

Climate Consensus? Nonsense!
So, someone privately messaged us saying her friend had posted this article, and she (who messaged us) wondered how we'd respond. Okay, we give up. We'll never persuade people like Slate.com's Phil Plait. Not if this article, and this and this typify his thought processes. His failure to dig a little deeper, as any good journalist should (which suggests how few good journalists there are out there!), indicates a mind closed to evidence.But for those of you who aren't closed to evidence, how … [Read more...]
‘Evangelical Scientists and Academics’ Mistaken in Urging Congress to Act on Climate
Climatologist Dr. David Legates’s response to the letter from “evangelical scientists and academics” urging Congress to immediate action to fight global warming by reducing fossil fuel use points out some of its factual inaccuracies and the harms that would be done by acting on its advice. It’s also interesting to look at the letter as an example of misleading policy-related communications. One would naturally expect that a letter addressing climate change and starting with “As … [Read more...]
BBC Caught Promoting – and Hiding – Bias on Climate
Less than a month ago respected climatologist Dr. Judith Curry took the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to task for intentionally manufacturing a “consensus” on global warming—a no-no in scientific practice. Last week the world learned that the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) manufactured its own consensus on global warming—and used it to justify biased coverage of climate science. In 2006, the BBC convened a panel of “scientific experts” to advise it on climate change. But … [Read more...]
An Open Letter to the Signers of “Climate Change: An Evangelical Call To Action” and Others Concerned About Global Warming
An Open Letter to the Signers of “Climate Change: An Evangelical Call to Action” and Others Concerned About Global Warming “They only asked us to remember the poor–the very thing I was eager to do.” –The Apostle Paul, Galatians 2:10 Widespread media reports tell of a scientific consensus that: the world is presently experiencing unprecedented global warming;the main cause of it is rising atmospheric carbon dioxide because of human use of fossil fuels for energy; andthe … [Read more...]
Resolving the Dissonance Regarding Fossil Fuels
Fossil fuels are destroying our planet. Big oil is evil. Coal is an addiction. These are hyperbolic statements uttered without basis in the public square as we continue with lifestyles dependent on hydrocarbons and their derivatives. This dissonance exists cognitively in individuals whose choices are inconsistent with their thinking. Another dissonance manifests itself as elites who are wedded to an apocalyptic climate vision fearmongering to people who are just fine with their … [Read more...]
Fines for Honest Reporting Is Another French Obscenity
We have reached the end of the Olympic summer in Paris, comprising of the Olympics and the Paralympics. Though the U.S. finished at the top in the Olympics and in the top three at Paralympics, much of the world’s attention was on the Olympics’ obscene mockery of Christianity in its opening ceremony at Paris. It also overshadowed some unprecedented events in the city. A few days prior to the games, French authorities fined the country’s second most popular news channel 20,000 euros for … [Read more...]
Why Does The State Energy Plan Sound Familiar?
Recently, Delaware's new five-year energy plan has been made available for a second round of feedback. A new energy plan is due this year; after all, it has been five years since the last one was implemented. Five-year plans will sound familiar to those of you who remember the old Soviet “five-year plans for the development of the national economy of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.” Other communist nations, such as the People’s Republic of China, also adopted five-year plans. The … [Read more...]
Who is Directing the War on Agriculture and Nutrition?
Elite billionaire organizations and foundations, government agencies and activist pressure groups are funding and coordinating a global war on modern agriculture, nutrition, and Earth’s poorest, hungriest people. Instead of helping more families get nutritious food, better healthcare and higher living standards, they’re doing the opposite, and harming biodiversity in the process. The World Economic Forum wants to reimagine, reinvent and transform the global food system, to eliminate … [Read more...]
Held Case Underscores the Importance of Scientific Debate
The following is a guest article by Roger Koopman. Many conservatives are quite upset at district court Judge Kathy Seeley, for recently ruling in favor of the 16 school-age plaintiffs in the Held climate change case, but I am not. Some might see the length of her 103-page Order as overkill, but I wasn’t surprised by that either. It was the natural outcome of a trial where the Defendants – the state of Montana – might just as well have stayed home. AG Knudsen and the … [Read more...]
