S. Fred Singer, who died last year, was an emeritus Professor of Environmental Sciences at the University of Virginia, well-known for his written and spoken clarity. His last book, the Third Edition of Hot Talk, Cold Science: Global Warming’s Unfinished Debate, is the most lucid example of his communication talents. This book is just like Fred, who was always smiling, had a good word for everyone, and was enthusiastic about his work. His attitude reminded me of Minnesota’s Hubert Humphrey, … [Read more...]
Study suggests no more CO2 warming
Precision research by physicists William Happer and William van Wijngaarden has determined that the present levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide and water vapor are almost completely saturated. In radiation physics the technical term “saturated” implies that adding more molecules will not cause more warming. In plain language this means that from now on our emissions from burning fossil fuels could have little or no further impact on global warming. There would be no climate emergency. … [Read more...]
Daily Caller toes climate alarmist line on Happer resignation
The resignation of Dr. Will Happer, Emeritus Professor of Physics at Princeton and one of America's finest physicists, from the National Security Council (NSC) is an important event. It is a sign of just how difficult it is to overcome the "deep state's" stranglehold on government policy, despite the fact that President Donald Trump is at the helm. Happer was tapped for the NSC with the expectation that he would head a Presidential Council on Climate Security (PCCS), one function of which … [Read more...]
I Love My Job, and Sometimes It’s Really, Really Fun!
Back in June I had the tremendous privilege of interviewing 32 scholars and leaders on camera for Cornwall Alliance's forthcoming documentary, Where the Grass is Greener: Biblical Stewardship vs. Climate Alarmism, and our already posting YouTube video series Greener on the Other Side: Climate Alarmism---Facts, Not Fear (subscribe to our YouTube channel and you'll be notified of new videos when they post). Many of these are giants in their fields. All are brilliant people and dedicated to the … [Read more...]
An Open Letter to Pope Francis on Climate Change
Your Holiness: April 27, 2015—As world leaders contemplate a climate agreement, many look to you for guidance. We commend you for your care for the earth and God’s children, especially the poor. With this letter we raise some matters of concern that we ask you to consider as you convey that guidance. Much of the debate over environmental stewardship is rooted in a clash of worldviews, with conflicting doctrines of God, creation, humanity, sin, and salvation. Unfortunately, that clash often … [Read more...]
