Climate Security Confusion Abounds

June 13, 2019 by PA Pundits - International

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ The news media has been reporting what looks like a conflict within the Trump Administration, over the national security implications of climate change. Supposedly the conflict is between military and intelligence reports describing serious security implications and the Administrations position that climate change is not a serious threat. There may […]

Flooding Ourselves With Valuable Water

June 8, 2019 by PA Pundits - International

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ Our National Environmental Policy is to let nature take its course and that is exactly what is happening with this catastrophic flooding. Blame Congress, not climate change. The dams that would stop this flooding were designed in the 1960’s but they were never built because of the 1970 National Environmental […]

EU Hit With Political Polarization

June 2, 2019 by PA Pundits - International

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ The center has fallen out of the political EU. In the recent EU parliamentary elections both the left and the right made big gains, at the expense of what had seemed to be a perpetual middle majority.

Beto’s Two-Headed Climate Change Fallacy

May 8, 2019 by PA Pundits - International

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ Rising star presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke has put out his own version of the Green New Deal. It is milder than AOC’s monstrosity but it is still a multi-trillion dollar monstrosity. Unlike the GND, and perhaps wisely, Beto’s fantastical blueprint has no name. In the interest of simplicity, let’s just […]

Big Oil Goes Big Green

May 2, 2019 by PA Pundits - International

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ Climate alarmists often accuse skeptics, like myself and independent groups like CFACT, of being in the pay of Big Oil. This is completely false — we do not receive even a dime from them. It is part of the green fairy tale that skepticism only exists because the oil companies […]
