Pope Francis has repeatedly stressed the need for climate action. He wants countries to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions. Last month, he said those who disagree have a “perverse attitude.” But his stance on climate change will harm the poor. Is the Global Average Temperature Rising? Why? For centuries, the Church has been a champion of human […]

An annual two-week luxury climate negotiation excursion for nearly 25,000 government diplomats, bureaucrats, and environmentalists in Bonn, Germany ended on November 17. If one is to believe the PR hype coming out of the conference, the attendants made significant progress concerning how to account for and report domestic greenhouse-gas emissions and progress in their efforts

Our friend Tim Ball sent us this email, so we thought we’d share it with you as an update to our story about peat fires. Peat fires even in the tundra are perfectly normal and common. They were a constant nuisance to us flying search and rescue across northern and arctic Canada. People would report

For almost thirty years, I have taught climate science at three different universities. What I have observed is that students are increasingly being fed climate change advocacy as a surrogate for becoming climate science literate. This makes them easy targets for the climate alarmism that pervades America today. Earth’s climate probably is the most complicated

Dr. Katharine Hayhoe is an evangelical scientist who desires the wellbeing of human society. She crunches data and helps people quantify the impacts of climate change.
