By Duggan Flanakin ~ Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. – C. S. Lewis Is it mere coincidence that the European nations leading the march toward all- electric vehicle fleets are still (at least symbolically) – or were for centuries – ruled by monarchies? […]
By Tim Graham ~ The front page of the May 13 Washington Times was sobering: “President Biden’s second 100 days are off to a woeful start, including a gas shortage for much of the East Coast, a surge of inflation, a slowdown in hiring despite a record number of job openings, renewed fighting in the […]
By Duggan Flanakin ~ The world-wide wind industry, says the Global Wind Energy Council, will create 3.3 million new “good-paying union jobs” by 2025, if it actually installs the planned 470 gigawatts of combined onshore and offshore wind capacity. Just in 2020, says the GWEC, 93 GW of new wind capacity was installed – doubling 2019 […]
By Tim Graham ~ Liberals are having it both ways right now. It’s nuts to suggest Joe Biden has a plan to take away your meat. But the eco-lefties really want to limit everyone’s meat intake, especially beef. On Saturday night’s All Things Considered, NPR host Michel Martin brought on New York Times columnist and […]
By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ Biden’s so-called environmental justice push is going to bring on a big wave of bogus research. A really big report just came out so I want to chop on it a bit. Not just for its specific fallacies, but also as typical of what we are going to see a […]
By Dr. John Happs ~ “We must be ready to employ trickery, deceit, law-breaking, withholding and concealing truth. We can and must write in a language which sows among the masses hate, revulsion, scorn, and the like, towards those who disagree with us.”– Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870-1924). From “Reflections on the Failure of Socialism” by […]
By Tim Graham ~ Liberals have gone from fretting over “restrictions” on voting to restrictions on rioting. They like to call them “anti-protest bills.” So Republicans are opposed to voting and protesting? On Friday night’s All Things Considered on NPR, their segment was titled “Wave Of ‘Anti-Protest’ Bills Could Threaten First Amendment.” Anchor Mary Louise […]
TonyfromOz prefaces ~ The following is a Guest Post from an Australian retired Consulting Geologist Geoff Derrick. The first two images are related to Australia and in the first, Angus Taylor is the Australian Federal Government Minister For Energy And Emissions Reduction. The second image includes the mention of the article by Richard Lindzen and […]
By Peter Murphy ~ Bill Gates is not aging well. It is not because Mr. Gates dropped to the fourth wealthiest person on the planet after being number one for many years. He still has north of $100 billion thanks to a burgeoning stock market bubble. The founder of the Microsoft Corporation, now retired, has […]
By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ The Biden Climate Summit is not just the two day zoomfest. That show is the crescendo to a complex concert that has played out over the last few weeks. Each of the speeches by Federal Agency heads is the announcement of their part of a massive green plan — the […]
By Ronald Stein ~ With half of the EV’s in the entire country being located in California, the recent 2021 California study may be a downer for the EV excitement as it shows that EV’s are driven half as much as internal combustion engine vehicles. The study illustrates that EV’s are generally second vehicles and […]
By Joseph Vazquez ~ Time magazine continued its sad history of pushing the inconsistent climate nuttiness it’s been peddling for decades. The magazine released a new cover story with a headline that once again reeked of climate Armageddon agitprop: “Climate Is Everything: How the pandemic can lead us to a better, greener world.” Climate doom-monger […]
By Joseph Vazquez ~ A new wacky report by Greenpeace underscored the Marxist left’s obsession with connecting the completely unrelated issues of eco-fanaticism and racism. The April 13 report was published with a blaring headline, “Fossil Fuel Racism.” The executive summary was just as absurd as the headline: “Fossil fuels — coal, oil, and gas […]
By Peter Murphy ~ The Cable News Network (CNN) is a shell of its former self to the point where no objective person can view it any longer as a “news” operation. Project Veritas, headed by James O’Keefe, which practices undercover journalism, just revealed CNN’s flagrant political agenda to embellish “climate change.” This episode reveals […]
By Duggan Flanakin ~ You have to hand it to Xi Jinping. The Chinese “president for life” last September schmoozed the royalty of the United Nations with his unexpected pledge that his country aims “to have CO2 emissions peak before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality (Net Zero) before 2060.” Xi then urged other nations “to pursue […]
By Dr. Jay Lehr ~ As more and more in society have drifted away from a belief in God the void needs to be filled for most human beings. The environment, Crichton said, has filled the void for many. Conventional Judeo-Christian religion began with a perfect world called Eden. Today’s environmentalist sees sustainability as the […]
By Ronald Stein ~ Before world leaders move too fast to consummate their climate policies, they need to be cognizant of two “aha” moments: 1) wind and solar can only generate intermittent electricity, and 2) electricity cannot manufacture the oil derivatives that are the basis of the thousands of products that have built the world’s […]
By Ronald Stein ~ With many still living with little to no access to electricity, American politicians are pursuing the most expensive ways to generate intermittent electricity with offshore wind turbines on the East and West Coasts. The U.S Energy Information Administration (EIA) has already documented that offshore wind continues to be one of the most […]
By P.J. Gladnick ~ When you think about Hunter Biden, what is the first thing that comes to mind? And please don’t crack any jokes. Come on, pipe up. What do you associate Hunter Biden with? Laptops? Perhaps but it could be another L-word, namely locomotives. Yes, did you now that Hunter Biden is a noted […]
By Bonner Cohen, Ph.D. ~ The Biden White House’s March 29 announcement that it will expedite development of offshore wind projects along the Atlantic Coast of the United States underscores the administration’s commitment to move the nation away from fossil fuels to increased dependence on renewable energy. But the prospect of giant wind turbines sprouting […]
By Dr. John Happs ~ Marcus Cicero (106–43 BCE) was a Roman lawyer, statesman, philosopher, skeptic and writer. Cicero was also a senator who wanted a Republic that better served all the people. He was deeply involved in the political conflicts of Rome and questioned the motives behind a number of decisions made by some […]
By Tim Graham ~ On Thursday, National Review posted a blog by Zachary Evans headlined “NBC’s Lester Holt Urges Journalists to Ditch Objectivity: ‘Fairness Is Overrated.’” This offended the “independent fact-checkers” at Snopes.com, who flagged the headline — not the article — as “False.” Once again, they’re complaining about a lack of context. They’re arguing about […]
By Ronald Stein ~ With some energy literacy, folks may realize that there may not be a silver bullet answer for all of humanity’s energy needs. Whether you ultimately drive an internal combustion engine vehicle or an EV, and get exposed to electricity from wind, solar, coal, natural gas, nuclear, or hydro generation, will depend […]
By Dr. Jay Lehr ~ This is one of the shorter articles I have written each week at CFACT. The reason is that the fraudulent distortion of species extinction has so little data behind it for me to dissect, actually none. So there is little to write about. Patrick Moore did write about it in […]
