New England home heating and electricity prices are on the rise with no end in sight. Consumers paid record-high energy bills last winter, even though the winter was not unusually cold. Shortages of natural gas and green energy policies will drive New England prices higher and raise the chance of electricity blackouts. Residential energy bills in New England this year were the highest in history. The combination of electricity and natural gas heating bills exceeded $1,000 per month for … [Read more...]

Even With Its Problems, Science Education Lives On In America
This is a guest article by Dr. Sharon Camp. Never have I been so inspired upon being removed from a venue. Actually, as a retired teacher of AP (advanced placement) environmental sciences and chemistry, I haven’t been escorted from very many places. Perhaps none. I should explain. I am a member of the CO2 Coalition in Arlington, Virginia, where I wear my scientist hat – a B.S. in geology and Ph.D. in analytical chemistry – and serve on the organization’s education committee. In … [Read more...]
Judith Curry to Senate (and Senator Whitehouse): Cool It!
So much theatrical foolishness happens in Congressional hearings that one wonders why anyone bothers with them. But every once in a while, someone really intelligent, really well informed, really courageous addresses one of them, and then it’s a good idea to pay attention. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash That happened March 23 when our friend Dr. Judith Curry, President of Climate Forecast Applications Network and former Professor and Chair of the School of Earth and Atmospheric … [Read more...]
Shining Light on Science Education’s Dark Age
The science teachers’ bureaucracy is driving climate education into an unquestioning adherence to unscientific methodology. The cost will be measured in students without the facility for the more than 400-year-old scientific method and lacking the critical thinking necessary for sustaining civilization and advancing humankind. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash Many observers of education have been concerned for some time about the state of science education in America. Teaching, it … [Read more...]
NOAA and Green Activists Condone Whale Sacrifice By Offshore Wind Industry
Reports are multiplying around the world: dead whales are washing up onto beaches in rapidly growing numbers. Why? Well, the New York Times ("a former newspaper"---Andrew Klavan) blames online shopping and climate change, an interesting take that spurred a humorous jab by the Manhattan Institute's Jonathan Lesser. Whales navigate by their God-given sonar systems. Other sonar signals, likely including those used by offshore wind developers to map the sea floor, mess with those systems, and … [Read more...]
Carlos Conquers Carrington: Could This Be Our Future With Net-Zero?
This is a guest article by John Haller. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash The Solar Storm of 1859. Nobody living today can remember two significant events that occurred in September 1859. These events were separated by a 24-hour break. Our ever-dependable friend the sun, sent two "death rays" our way, sometimes referred to in technical jargon as CMEs, or Coronal Mass Ejections. Solar storms. Humankind had not noticed, nor had they ever been affected by these … [Read more...]
ESG’s Perverse, Narrow, Fraudulent Ethical Principles
Warning: Your retirement fund may have been Shanghaied by BlackRock or other Wall Street asset managers who’ve unilaterally decided that the tens of trillions of dollars of other people’s money they control should be used to advance political causes they favor – to “make the world a better place.” Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash As most people know, ESG stands for Environmental protection, Social justice, and Governance of corporate and societal affairs. They’re all … [Read more...]
Dangers of the Next Generation Science Standards
Over the past decade and more, a serious threat has arisen to the education of America’s children. For generations America’s public schools have indoctrinated our children with the dogma of Darwinism: life arose and developed by chance, no Creator involved. Now they’re indoctrinating them with another dogma: catastrophic anthropogenic global warming (CAGW)—and with it a whole catalog of other exaggerated and sometimes completely fictitious environmental concerns, all of them used as rationales … [Read more...]
Munich Re Cries Foul, Florida Policy Holders Quake
According to Reuters, Munich Re is complaining bitterly, along with several other pre-imminent international re-insurers about its massive weather-related losses during the calendar years 2021 and 2022. The role of re-insurers in the insurance market is simply to back up the many standard casualty insurance companies that may wish to deal off part of the potential liability from catastrophic losses (mega-claims) filed by their policyholders, who may sustain economic damage from one of … [Read more...]
‘Greens’ Ignore India’s Lethal Cold Spells
It is not uncommon to witness freezing temperatures in winter in Europe and North America. However dangerous the cold can be in higher latitudes, such weather is even more so where people and infrastructure are ill-prepared for it. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash One such place is India, well known for its hot, tropical weather. Every year, some Indians find themselves in the midst of record-breaking cold even as the mainstream media and others obsessively speak of catastrophic … [Read more...]
