What Happened to Global Warming?

by Debra J. Saunders – Tuesday, October 13, 2009 – for Townhall.com “What happened to global warming?” read the headline — on BBC News on Oct. 9, no less. Consider it a cataclysmic event: Mainstream news organizations have begun reporting on scientific research that suggests that global warming may not be caused by man and may not be as dire and eminent as alarmists suggest. Indeed, as the BBC’s climate correspondent Paul Hudson reported, the warmest year recorded globally “was not in 2008 or 2007, but 1998.” It’s true, he continued, “For the last 11 years, we have not observed any … Continue reading What Happened to Global Warming?

Study: California Wildfires in One Year Erased 16 Years of Emissions Cuts

Joel B. Pollak – 1 Mar 2023 – for Breitbart news The raging California wildfires of 2020 created enough carbon emissions to offset 16 years of reductions through the state’s green policies — twice over — according to a UCLA study published by Environmental Pollution. My cmnt: Isn’t it ironic? These out-of-control fires are directly the result of environmental wackism which does not let the land management people order the clearing out of old, dead undergrowth and trees. These massive fires are just waiting to happen when the Libs allow their fuel to grow and grow each year. A firefighter rubs … Continue reading Study: California Wildfires in One Year Erased 16 Years of Emissions Cuts

An Ode to Two Years of Unified Democratic Governance

It’s hard to put into words just how bad, how horrible, how devastating to America these two illegitimate years of O’Biden have been. This senile, old, vile fool could only have been elected by blind, partisan Marxist democrats and by cheating through election fraud gotten away with by using the excuse of Covid-19. Under President Trump we had the best economy – for everyone: blacks, Hispanics, women and children – in 60 years plus low inflation, low fuel prices, low unemployment and high labor participation rates. We were respected by our allies and feared by our enemies. We had achieved … Continue reading An Ode to Two Years of Unified Democratic Governance

Apocalypse delayed, world did not end…

By DAVID FRENCH – January 27, 2016 6:55 PM – for National Review The rapture was supposed to happen on September 13, 1988. A few fringe pastors were screaming that the end was nigh, that the righteous would soon disappear into the air while the rest of humanity was doomed to suffer a quite literal hell on earth. Forget the biblical admonition that no man knows the day nor hour of Christ’s return, these men had figured it out. It was time to prepare yourself.

Biden’s Magic Electric Cars: Inconvenient Facts

John Stossel |  Nov 16, 2022 – for Townhall.com My cmnt: Electric cars, like every other Green Dream of the Left and democrats, solve nothing. They still require electricity produced by nuclear, coal and natural gas. They require vast amounts of oil to run the machines to produce electric cars and their horribly polluting batteries. They cannot heat the car during winter nor cool the car during summer without losing half of the charge. Producing batteries is more polluting than pumping and using oil, a fourth of the EV’s weight is in the batteries, they explode into horrendous fires, they cannot … Continue reading Biden’s Magic Electric Cars: Inconvenient Facts

The same failed ideology drives our fuel prices (especially gas and oil) up every time it’s tried. They will never learn because their worldview is nearly completely disconnected from reality. The national average for gas prices is almost $3.60 per gallon, increasing 40 cents from a year ago and jumping 20 cents from just one month ago.[1] Prices are already surpassing $4 per … Continue reading High Gas Prices: Obama’s Half-Truths vs. Reality

Hurricane Hype, Lies, Censorship – and Reality

Paul Driessen | Posted: Oct 09, 2022 12:01 AM – for Townhall.com Hurricane Ian is in the history books, having unleashed its Category 4 fury on southwestern Florida. Even as the area slowly digs out and rebuilds, the devastation and tragedies will linger in reality and memories.   Ian was the latest of 123 hurricanes to hit the Sunshine State since official recordkeeping began in 1851.

Of course it is nearly meaningless what the entire West is doing to so-called “combat” climate change. Not only is that impossible but it is ruining America and the West. While China and India continue to build coal and nuclear plants we decommission ours. If the damn Libs were really serious about stopping climate change (not possible) they would advocate war against the world’s biggest polluters … Continue reading Billionaire No More: Patagonia Founder Gives Away the Company

By Stephen Moore – Posted: Jun 07, 2022 – for Townhall.com My cmnt: Electric vehicles can never replace the internal combustion engine – period. And the mining of rare earth and other metals is an environmental nightmare just to make windmills, solar panels and car batteries. Green is the color of envy and is unbecoming on everyone.

Electric Vehicle Push Is Sparking Massive Deforestation, Environmental Damage

By THOMAS CATENACCI ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT REPORTER for Daily Caller My cmnt: Look, electric cars can never replace gas-powered cars, period. This is a democrat pipe dream. An electric car needs heating and A/C in most of the regions of the U.S. This is not possible to do with a battery or even a bunch of batteries and never will be. So supplemental gas-powered engines (the so-called hybrid gas/electric vehicle) will always be needed. The end result is nonsense and will produce as much overall pollution and more than before.

Healthy Polar Bears and Thriving Tigers: The Common Climate Tale

Vijay Jayaraj | Posted: Dec 12, 2020 12:01 AM – for Townhall.com Editor’s note: this column was coauthored by Calvin Beisner.  My cmnt: I included the chart below to show that the climate always changes but man-made global warming is a scare tactic that is not happening. The climate warms and cools all the time. This is mostly due to solar activity and sunspot increase or decrease. The earth is also affected by volcanic activity.

IEA report shows Biden climate policies make US entirely dependent on China

from JunkScience.com Check out how Biden climate policies (i.e., more wind, solar and EVs) would increase out dependency on China for raw materials and processing.  Here is the IEA report. Below are the two key graphs. You would think the green desire for more wind, solar and EVs would grease the skids for more domestic production of vital materials. But you would be wrong.  Check out the front-page New York Times article today on how greens are working to stop lithium production in the US.  If both Biden and the greens succeed, US national security will be entirely compromised.

No Need to Panic About Global Warming

The Wall Street Journal OPINION JANUARY 27, 2012 No Need to Panic About Global Warming There’s no compelling scientific argument for drastic action to ‘decarbonize’ the world’s economy. My cmnt: Anyone with any real knowledge of the history of science knows that ‘scientific consensus’ is not how we settle scientific arguments.   Too many times to mention has scientific consensus been proved wrong by later discoveries.   What matters in science is demonstrable data and facts available to everyone that show some article of scientific doctrine to be correct, at least for the time being.

Earth Day at 50: Progress, Not Politics, Cleaned Up America

by Steve Milloy – for Real Clear Politics  June 2020 Environmental activists decreed in 1970 that April 22 was to be commemorated as Earth Day. Fifty years later, if you listen to these activists, especially as they are fog-horned by the mainstream media, you might get the impression that our environment is in more jeopardy than ever. Is this true?  Let’s stipulate that post-World War II America was much dirtier than 2020 America. Industrial cities were beset with smog. Pollution in rivers caught fire. Waste dumps weren’t always managed well. Not much thought was given to use and exposure to … Continue reading Earth Day at 50: Progress, Not Politics, Cleaned Up America

Over the ensuing decades, laws, regulations, and changed attitudes, practices and technologies reduced most of that pollution, often dramatically. I didn’t buy into the 1970 end-is-nigh, doom-and-gloom, billions-will-die hysteria that Ron Stein and Ron Bailey summarize, including the manmade global cooling crisis. I don’t buy it today, either – certainly not this year’s Earth Day focus on the alleged manmade global warming crisis, also blamed on emissions … Continue reading The Real Climate Science Deniers

University dumps professor who found polar bears thriving despite climate change

By Valerie Richardson – The Washington Times – Sunday, October 20, 2019 Nobody has done more to sink the claim that climate change is endangering polar bears than zoologist Susan Crockford — and she may have paid for it with her job. After 15 years as an adjunct assistant professor, Ms. Crockford said the University of Victoria rejected without explanation in May her renewal application, despite her high profile as a speaker and author stemming from her widely cited research on polar bears and dog domestication. Ms. Crockford accused officials at the Canadian university of bowing to “outside pressure,” the result of her research showing that polar … Continue reading University dumps professor who found polar bears thriving despite climate change

My cmnt: With the further politicalization of science by the world’s Leftists and nature worshipers we must all be on our guard against false claims of ‘science’ and scientists who, like in the former Soviet Union and Russia today, demand consensus rather than actual observations to be the determining factor in what is science and what is not.
