July 14, 2021 by PA Pundits - International

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ A group of 17 leading free market advocacy organizations is telling EPA to rethink and repropose its faulty phaseout rules for HFCs. These rules were recently proposed under the so-called American Innovation and Manufacturing (AIM) Act passed in December. EPA is rushing the rule making, with final rules due out […]

You Must Love The EPA – Or Else!

July 17, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency comes as close to George Orwell’s version of Big Brother as any element of the federal government. It operates on a totally irrational basis, ignoring anything that even passes for real science. Through its regulatory power it imposes insane mandates that drive up the cost of everything […]

When Bad Science Makes Bad Laws

July 14, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba You may have noticed that the mainstream media has virtually dropped “global warming” as a topic worth reporting. That can be traced to “Climategate”, the November 2009 leak of emails that revealed the global hoax perpetrated on us by a small group of scientists who had been generating false information about the […]

EPA Goes Ape Over Power Plant Emissions

July 13, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba Not a day goes by without our being told that something is going to kill us. Much of what kills people is genetic; little time bombs in our DNA that determine the state of our health. Anyone who reads the daily obituaries knows that Americans are living longer than any previous generation. […]

Refusing To Report The Truth

July 7, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba I attended the first two International Climate Change Conferences when they were held in New York City, but a change of venue to the hometown of The Heartland Institute, Chicago, was enough to discourage someone like myself who no longer enjoys travel of any kind for any reason. The most recent Heartland […]

EPA’s New Analysis Of Cap And Trade Same Old Faulty Logic

June 18, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Nicolas Loris. The Environmental Protection Agency released its economic analysis of the Kerry-Lieberman cap and trade legislation, the latest cap and trade bill to be released in the Senate. The result was nearly the same as the EPA’s analysis of the Waxman-Markey cap and trade bill passed in the House of Representatives last year: […]

These Are NOT Your Friends

June 11, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba. June 10, – An email from Friends of the Earth Dear Friend, We’re happy to report that, just minutes ago, the Senate voted down a proposal that would kneecap the most important federal tool to reduce climate-destabilizing pollution, the Clean Air Act. Thanks in no small part to the more than 30,000 […]

Failed EPA Votes Undermines Economy

June 11, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Dan Holler. United States Senators went on record this afternoon and the result was unfortunate. 53 Senators voted against a resolution offered by Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) that would have disapproved of the Environmental Protection Agency’s backdoor global warming regulations. Today’s outcome was a victory for anti-growth environmentalists, but a devastating loss for the […]

Just What You Don’t Need! More Ethanol!

June 10, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba. Guest Post by Nicholas E. Hollis. Here’s a news item from the Ethanol Transparancy Project: June 9 – ADM has taken its “ethanol game” to a new level with a brazen announcement yesterday the company was “asking” EPA to immediately permit raising the percentage blend of ethanol in gasoline to 12% (up […]

Stopping The EPA’s CO2 Regulations

June 10, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Nicolas Loris. When the Waxman-Markey cap and trade bill passed in the House before last year’s summer recess, Members voting for its passage heard loudly from constituents. Since then the Senate has been reluctant to move forward with a counterpart. It took Senators Joe Lieberman (I-CT) and John Kerry (D-MA) nearly a year to […]

The EPA Runs Amuck

June 9, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba. On Thursday, the Senate will vote on S.J. Resolution 26. It is an effort to stop the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating “greenhouse gas emissions” without any legislative accountability. If the vote fails, the EPA will be free to continue its assault on the nation’s economy and every aspect of your personal […]

June 8, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

For Immediate Release from National Center for Public Policy Research: Washington, D.C. – Senators will soon consider a resolution to pare back an Environmental Protection Agency plan to regulate greenhouse gases – a plan that would raise energy costs. On June 10, the U.S. Senate will consider a “resolution of disapproval” regarding a 2009 ruling […]

We Must Defeat The EPA Power Grab

May 27, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba “The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is carrying out one of the biggest power grabs in American history. The agency has positioned itself to regulate fuel economy, set climate policy for the nation and amend the Clean Air Act—powers never delegated to it by Congress. It has done this by declaring greenhouse gas […]

Cap And Trade Treason

April 26, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba If you thought that the way the Obama administration and its cohort of Democrats in Congress rammed through the takeover of the nation’s healthcare system was appalling, prepare to watch the same process applied to Cap-and-Trade. Your government no longer represents you, the voter, the citizen. Cap-and-Trade (H.R. 2454) allegedly is about […]

Destroying America One Environmental Law At A Time

April 20, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba While America maintains the greatest military power in the history of mankind, fearful of another terrorist attack on its soil, it is being destroyed from within by the relentless imposition of laws that defy science and common sense. Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) has introduced legislation to “reform” the 34-year-old Toxic Substances Control […]

The EPA Monster

April 19, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba Among the legacies of Richard M. Nixon, famed for the Watergate scandal that forced his resignation, it should be noted that he created the Environmental Protection Agency. There was no vote in Congress. He did it with an executive order. Today the EPA has an annual budget of $9 billion and some […]

The Revolt Of The States

April 15, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba President Obama, his weird circle of advisors (czars), and the ideologues within the Democrat Party led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Harry Reid only have a few months left to completely destroy the separation of powers between the States and the federal government. A major battle is looming over the […]

Global Warming, Melting Glaciers And Prohibition

April 15, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Nicolas Loris TonyfromOz prefaces ….. Read this first section in the quotes slowly and very carefully, and then read the first paragraph after that for the timeline on just how recently this statement was made. The Arctic seems to be warming up. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters, and explorers who sail the seas about […]

Brilliantly Exposing Climategate

April 14, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba Over the years, I have read dozens of books by eminent scientists, climatologists and meteorologists, that exposed the lies that support the greatest fraud ever perpetrated in the modern era, “global warming.” I have always wanted to read one that anyone could understand without having sufficient knowledge of the rather complex science […]

Carbon Dioxide Is NOT A Pollutant

April 14, 2010 by TonyfromOz

Gee! Thank heavens the EPA is looking out for us by declaring CO2 a dangerous pollutant. Don’t tell the plants though.

Could New EPA Requirements Cause Headaches For Automakers?

April 8, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Nick Loris The taxpayer-funded auto bailout was largely the result of a number of poor decisions made by General Motors and Chrysler. Along with the excessively high labor and legacy costs, Detroit’s dependence on big, non-fuel-efficient vehicles was its own doing and at one time, was a very profitable strategy. Detroit struggled to make […]

A Thousand Lies

April 7, 2010 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba The question is, how long can a nation sustain itself when its president, its government, and its news media tell a thousand lies every day? Americans are drowning in lies. The biggest lie is the budget, burdened with trillions in debt, and behind that are the virtually insolvent entitlement programs, Social Security […]
