Unscrambling Net Zero Deceptions

October 4, 2022 by PA Pundits - International

By Dr. Jay Lehr ~ Several states and a significant number of electric utilities have committed to decarbonization goals.

Net-Zero Is The Real Climate Catastrophe

September 2, 2022 by PA Pundits - International

By Duggan Flanakin ~ Maybe Vladimir Putin SHOULD get the Nobel Peace Prize after all. To be sure, Putin’s bloody invasion of Ukraine is an affront to humanity, given his targeting of civilians.

August 30, 2022 by PA Pundits - International

August 23, 2022 by PA Pundits - International

By Robert Lyman and Dr. Jay Lehr ~ Consider other consequences of decarbonization. All current production of fossil fuels would have to be phased out.

January 7, 2022 by PA Pundits - International

By Duggan Flanakin ~ As China builds more and more coal-fired power plants, consolidates its stranglehold on rare-earth metals vital for 21st century economies, and extends its influence into America’s backyard, “woke” Westerners are marching like lemmings toward the energy poverty cliff.

November 17, 2021 by PA Pundits - International

By Duggan Flanakin ~ Joe Biden fell asleep (not even his most embarrassing moment!) at the Glasgow climate conference. And for good reason. It’s over. Net Zero by 2050 is dying a slow, painful death.

China’s Strange Endorsement Of “Net Zero”

April 15, 2021 by PA Pundits - International

By Duggan Flanakin ~ You have to hand it to Xi Jinping.

India Ignores Media Preaching On “Net Zero Carbon”

April 12, 2021 by PA Pundits - International

By Duggan Flanakin ~ India is just one ”developing” nation that has recognized that the mad rush toward a “net zero carbon” economy does not serve the interests of its ordinary citizens. With that realization, they are also waking up to the fact that serving the public interest necessitates major increases in affordable, reliable energy to […]
