By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ Green Deal proposals are springing up around the world. The core concept is zero CO2 emissions via decarbonization.

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ Al Gore’s endorsement of the anti-fracking ballot initiative in Colorado makes it clear that this is a “leave it in the ground” measure. It is not really about health and safety, homes and hospitals, despite being pitched that way. This is climate activism at work. Proposition 112 is aimed at […]

Concerns over impacts from energy projects disappear where “green” energy is involved By Paul Driessen ~ It’s a good thing environmentalists have double standards – or they wouldn’t have any standards at all.

New DOI and DOA policy to cut overgrown, diseased, dead, and burned trees is long overdue By Paul Driessen ~ President Trump promised to bring fresh ideas and policies to Washington.

Anti-mining groups “protect” local tribe against phony risks by trampling on Guatemalan workers By Paul Driessen ~ Not long ago, supposed “environmental justice” concerns at least involved risks to mine workers and their families.
