Will global warming alarmists ever set aside their hypotheses, hyperbole, models and ideologies long enough to acknowledge what is actually happening in the real world outside their windows? Will they at least do so before setting off on another misguided adventure?...

Coase, Pigou, and Sriracha Sauce
Huy Fong has been ordered to cease any odor emitting production by a California judge. This could lead to a shortage of their wildly popular Sriracha hot sauce. While foodies are upset, residents who sought the injunction against Huy Fong appear to have a legitimate...
History falsifies climate alarmist sea level claims
Sea levels are rising rapidly! Coastal communities are becoming more vulnerable to storms and storm surges! Small island nations are going to disappear beneath the waves! Climate alarmists have been making these claims for years, trying to tie them to events like...

Carbon Border Taxes: A Counterproductive Idea Which Will Lead to Penalized Customers
Carbon taxes at the borders are becoming a popular idea among some countries and world regions. For example, the European Commission, the EU executive institution, is proposing environmental tariffs “on imports from countries with less stringent climate-protection...
Reverse Orwell to Give Our Leaders New Titles
In his novel 1984, George Orwell envisioned a future that is arguably unfolding before our eyes where government authority was supreme and truth and freedom were not to be found. Perhaps he should have named his novel 2021 because our times seem more like his novel...
Verging on Occult: Earth Hour fails at fighting climate change, so what is it about?
It’s time to ask why Earth Hour is so popular given that it is so ineffective at raising climate change concern.
Only Climate Deceptions Matter in the Post-Fact Society
“The Post-Fact society is very active with environmental and climate issues. The media, which has generally abandoned the concept of fair and balanced, amplifies it. There’s a constant search for examples to buttress the idea that global warming and climate change are caused by humans. Even after evidence is proven inaccurate, inappropriate or wrong, the idea is pushed and new ‘facts’ found. Central requirements are to blame humans for the change and imply planetary destruction will result.”
The Climate Funding Trough; The Canadian Example: Misuse of Funding By Environment Canada
Environment Canada must be forced back to their mandate of collecting data and providing weather forecasts. They should not do research or have control of research funding. The damage done to climate science and the creation of unnecessary energy and climate policies must stop.

Modern Green Romanticism is Misanthropic
“The rise in temperatures of more than 6C and the rise in sea level of 130m during the past 15,000 years, without any anthropogenic emissions, show me that the forces in our solar system are much larger than our puny efforts in affecting climate change.”
Control of Climate Policies by Unaccountable Bureaucracies: The Canadian Example
“CanadaFreePress published some of this article a few years ago but few saw it because it was quickly pulled after I received a legal threat I was financially unable to fight. Legal threats to silence people are a common practice of supporters of human caused global warming. I related my experience to Dr Fred Singer and he immediately named the lawyer. How did he know? He and others had received threats from the same lawyer. “
Taking the Wind Out of Energy
“Fiscal spending on green energy has created a financial deficit in the power industry as a whole, forcing the government to cut back 30 percent of handouts to the solar energy producers. Thousands of jobs have been lost—part of the country’s painful 19 percent unemployment rate. “
The ‘Science’ Mantra
The recently revealed destruction of raw data at the bottom of the global warming hysteria, as well as revelations of attempts to prevent critics of this hysteria from being published in leading journals, suggests that the disinterested search for truth– the hallmark of real science– has taken a back seat to a political crusade.
