Life is a gas – CO2 (And oxygen of course) But to say that it drives the climate Puts the cart before the horse. What Al Gore said in his lecture Unbacked by observable proof Turned out to be pure conjecture – An inconvenient truth... The ice-core samples from Vostok Plotting temperature change over time Revealed that in fact CO2 change Lags hundreds of years behind. Greenland was green when the Vikings Settled a millennium ago; While Frost Fairs were held on the Thames Six centuries later, … [Read more...]
Obama Sacrifices American Prosperity on the Altar of Climate Hype
Where was President Barack Obama on Veteran’s Day? Was he honoring the nation’s war dead at Arlington National Cemetery? Encouraging her soldiers in training at one of the military academies? Issuing an executive order to force the Veterans’ Administration to respond promptly and efficiently to the needs of our wounded warriors and their surviving dependents? (I must confess a little prejudice. It took the VA almost exactly a year to approve my then-89-year-old mother’s application for … [Read more...]
Yoga Ecologist Says You Can “Love Away the CO2” to Fight Climate Change!
“Inhale up to your heart. Exhale up to the atmosphere. Love away the carbon dioxide.” Yes, you read that right! That’s just one part of the yogic meditation exercise prescribed by an anonymous blogger for healing the earth by stopping global warming. Too crazy to be real? Not in the mystical world of deep ecology and yoga meditation. On the blog “Loving the Earth: Reflections on Yogaecology, Climate Change, Permaculture and Community,” an anonymous blogger has a “Meditation for Climate … [Read more...]
American Lung Association in Cahoots with EPA
A new American Lung Association (ALA) television ad supports the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposed new rule requiring a 30% reduction in CO2 emissions from power plants by 2030, pushing the lie that CO2 emissions are harmful to human health. The ALA ad, entitled “a mother’s instinct,” shows a child’s toy, a baby monitor, and a sleeping baby, then cuts to a shot of a power plant and states, “The Clean Air Act stops polluters from poisoning his air with arsenic, lead, and mercury. … [Read more...]
Punish Your Enemy, Crush the Poor? EPA’s New CO2 Rule Turns Christian Ethics Upside Down
Originally Published in the Christian Post June 13, 2014 Jesus taught that we're to love our enemies and look after the poor. But a new rule from the Obama Administration seems to fly in the face of both mandates.By now practically everyone in America must know that the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) new proposed rule on carbon-dioxide emissions from power plants will cost a lot and achieve next to nothing.Cost? About $50 billion a year in lost production to the U.S. economy, … [Read more...]
Bogus Poll Touts Widespread Support for Obama’s CO2 Cuts
The headline couldn’t have been more celebratory: “A huge majority of Americans support regulating carbon from power plants. And they’re even willing to pay for it.” Uh-huh. Here’s the key question: “What if that significantly lowered greenhouse gases but raised your monthly energy expenses by 20 dollars a month - in that case do you think the government should or should not limit the release of greenhouse gases?” Note that figure: $20/month, equals $240 per year. But the real cost on … [Read more...]
EEN President Hescox Attacks Cornwall’s Beisner Using Straw Man and Misunderstood Evidence
Evangelical Environmental Network (EEN) President and CEO Rev. Mitch Hescox introduced a blog piece November 27, 2012, titled “My Meeting with Brother Cal,” by saying, “Christian leaders making misstatements to serve their own ends, attacking other believers for not agreeing with their worldview, and misusing science turn people away from the good news in Jesus.” In logic and debate, that’s called “poisoning the well.” After having done so, Rev. Hescox said that during a radio program … [Read more...]
Carbon Dioxide and Air Temperature: Who Leads and Who Follows?
On the Evangelical Environmental Network’s Creation Care Blog, Mitch Hescox shows a slide purporting to show the relationship between air temperature and carbon dioxide (CO2) over the past 800,000 years (http://creationcare.org/2012/11/27/my-meeting-with-brother-cal/). His slide is taken from Jouzel et al. (2007) and Lüthi et al. (2008) and he asserts that “carbon dioxide levels and temperature track identically” (emphasis added) with the implication that rising carbon dioxide levels … [Read more...]
Leading Evangelicals Object to EPA Restrictions on Power Plant CO2 Emissions: Cornwall Alliance Counters Effort to Portray CO2 Emissions Regulations as “Pro-Life”

Facing Fears & Global Warming
With all of the pending disasters blamed on global warming blasting their way through the media, I can understand why many might fear the future climate. We are told emissions of greenhouse gases, mainly carbon dioxide (CO2), are destroying not only polar bears and petunias, but the planet as a whole. If we don’t “stop global warming,” The End will surely come. I am a climate scientist. My research and that of many others does not lead me to be afraid for the climate’s future. However, I am … [Read more...]
