In an era of climate fearmongering, the curious case of Antarctica has more to offer than mere fairytales and could play an important role in understanding our planet’s future. Sprawling over an area of 5.5 million square miles (and nearly 11 million square miles in winter), Antarctica is a virtually uninhabited, ice-covered landmass holding 90 percent of the ice on the planet. The continent has been of interest to explorers, scientists, and occasional tourists. The absence of human … [Read more...]
Climate hysterics skyrocket: Increasingly absurd disaster rhetoric is consistently contradicted by climate and weather reality
Call it climate one-upmanship. It seems everyone has to outdo previous climate chaos rhetoric. The “climate crisis” is the “existential threat of our time,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi told her House colleagues. We must “end the inaction and denial of science that threaten the planet and the future.” Former California Governor Jerry Brown solemnly intoned that America has “an enemy, though different, but perhaps very much devastating in a similar way” as the Nazis in World War II. Not to be … [Read more...]
Chuck Todd Devotes an Hour to Attacking a Strawman
Chuck Todd, on a recent episode of Meet the Press, highlighted the issue of global warming and climate change. He unapologetically made it clear that he wasn’t interested in hearing from people on the opposing side of the scientific issue, stating: “We’re not going to debate climate change, the existence of it. The Earth is getting hotter. And human activity is a major cause, period. We’re not going to give time to climate deniers. The science is settled, even if political opinion is … [Read more...]
Will Fighting Climate Change Make the World Cleaner?
This is the fourth and last in a series of answers to a common, popular defense of drastic measures to combat manmade global warming. For the first, click here; for the second, click here; and for the third, click here. Bob’s final argument was this: “On the other hand, if climate change isn’t our fault but we choose to act like it is, we still end up with a world less polluted and more enjoyable. And we will have done everything we can to protect the creation we have been made stewards of. I … [Read more...]
Is Failure to Fight Climate Change Really Suicidal?
This is the third in a series of answers to a common, popular defense of drastic measures to combat manmade global warming. For the first, click here, and for the second, click here. The third and fourth points “Bob” made were these: “For most people, I think this would be a no-brainer issue if it weren’t politicized. But if the above two points are true, your political party affiliation doesn’t matter. Desiring to see the world less polluted is non-partisan. Practically, if there is ANY … [Read more...]
Is Fighting Climate Change Really Fighting Pollution?
This is the second in a series of posts answering a popular way of defending drastic efforts to reduce global warming that I encountered recently on social media. For the first, click here. The second point “Bob” made was this: “Whether you think climate change is manmade or not, I don’t know a single person who likes pollution. Everyone I know loves experiencing the beauty of our planet and thinks it’s a good idea to preserve and conserve what we have. No one wants a mini-continent of plastic … [Read more...]
Fire Facts Foil Climate Fraud
The 4th National Climate Assessment (NCA), released Friday, November 23, is a hodge-podge of cherry-picked data, outright lies, and scare-mongering at its worst. It predicts the premature deaths of tens of thousands from the effects of climate change, including deaths from starvation, mosquito-borne illnesses, extreme heat, flooding, and other natural disasters. The poster-child of this apocalyptic vision for the Earth was man-made warming-driven wildfire. Forests in flame were prominently … [Read more...]
California burning: Man’s actions have exacerbated the tragedy
The recent horrific fires in California have reignited a debate on the role that supposed man-made warming has on these events. Governor Jerry Brown leads the way, stating, "This is the new abnormal, and this new abnormal will continue, certainly in the next 10, 15, 20 years. Unfortunately, the best science is telling us that dryness, warmth, drought, all those things, they’re going to intensify." Is he correct? The answer is much more complicated than Gov. Brown’s. Human activities and … [Read more...]
Strange Agreements and Stranger Taxes: The United Nations’ Climate Drama
When I first watched Stranger Things (a Netflix original) in 2016, I thought the story writer was really talented and the show lived up to its name. But a real-world storyline is even stranger: the climate policies recommended to us by the UnitedNations. Despite its many scientific and structural failings, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the world’s most influential, though not the most credible, source of policy on climate change. No other political or … [Read more...]
Witch Hunts, Climate, and Climate-Change Madness
Cornwall Alliance Contributing Writer Gregory Wrightstone, author of Inconvenient Facts, posted a great video to YouTube explaining how the bitter cold, failed harvests, and famines of the Little Ice Age contributed to the witchcraft scare that led to the gruesome executions of many women (and some men) wrongly thought to be witches. Today, it’s not global cooling, which is a real problem when it happens, but global warming, which brings great benefits in terms of improved crop yields, that … [Read more...]
