Chennai, India’s Cold Winter vs. Global Warming Hype
Why do developing countries like India fear calling out the climate myth?

We Owe it to the Poor to Exit the Paris Climate Treaty
The scientific godfather of modern global warming alarmism, James Hansen, has called the Paris Climate Agreement “a fraud really, a fake ... It’s just worthless words.” What Dr. Hansen is referring to is that the agreement is so weak, that it amounts to all pain for no climate gain.

One of the classic psalms about God’s creation is Psalm 104, a model for how those who love that creation and want to be its good stewards should pray: Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, you are very great! You are clothed with splendor and majesty, covering yourself with light as with a garment, stretching out the heavens like a tent.
