By Vijay Jayaraj For 20 years, an alliance of partisan ideologues hungry for power and the profits of lobbying and grifting, along with crisis-obsessed media and certain academic elites, dictated what many politicians would back, what faculty would publish and what journalists dared to report about climate change. Activists leveraged the narrative of a false… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Vietnam’s decision to prohibit gasoline-powered motorcycles in central Hanoi beginning July 1, 2026, is a textbook example of climate dogma disrupting developing economies with potentially devastating consequences. The policy will take effect in Hanoi’s downtown districts, then expand to outer areas by 2027 and eventually include gasoline automobiles. Other urban centers, such… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj When researchers abandon empirical observation in favor of predetermined conclusions, science transforms into propaganda – something far more dangerous than the simple ignorance perpetuated. In climate sciences, funding agencies and international political bodies have dictated outcomes while authentic scientists faced systematic marginalization for questioning the prevailing narrative. The issue of climate change… Continue Reading
By Samuele Furfari If a self-described leader finds that nobody is following, is leadership present? Perhaps. The next question might be, where is the leader headed? These queries could well be put to the European Union’s makers of energy policy, who fancy themselves as groundbreakers for a supposed transition away from fossil fuels in favor… Continue Reading
by Lars Schernikau We are constantly told that the future of energy will be clean, green, and battery powered. Wind and solar will produce the power, and batteries will store it. Simple, right? Unfortunately, reality is not so accommodating. After years of studying energy systems, commodity markets, and the hard data behind the “so-called energy… Continue Reading

Energy is the Economy, Electricity is the Life-Blood of Western Civilization & Coal Can Make America’s Electricity Supply Great Again
By Dick Storm For most of the U.S. during high electricity demand periods, natural gas, coal and nuclear provide the Primary energy to provide over 75% of America’s electricity. Here is an example from July 29, 2025 during a peak load of about 745,000 MW for the lower 48 states. The primary energy provided by… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Those claiming that wind and solar energy are cheaper than fossil fuels should be writing scripts for science fiction dramas. Yet global organizations such as investment firm Lazard and the International Renewable Energy Agency expect this bogus claim to be taken seriously as a basis for investing many billions into essentially useless… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj By refusing to play by the EU’s restrictive climate rules, Poland has begun to build one of Europe’s most energy-secure economies. While much of the bloc marches in lockstep towards a self-inflicted economic wound called “net zero,” Poland has chosen a different path – one of pragmatism, national interest and, most importantly,… Continue Reading
By Steve Goreham The road to adoption of Zero Emissions Vehicles (ZEVs) is growing steeper. For over two decades, states used incentives and mandates to try to force a transition from gasoline vehicles to ZEVs. But softening market demand, shifting federal policies, and poor economics threaten to halt the ZEV revolution in the United States.… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj While Western leaders and climate activists obsess over the smokestacks of India and China, they ignore the quiet giant of Southeast Asia: Indonesia, the world’s fourth most populous nation and an economic powerhouse, is making grand moves in securing sources for fossil fuels. With an economy expected to expand annually by more than… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Like many developing economies, India faces coercion from the United Nations and Europe to conform to climate policies, especially through the imposition of carbon taxes on imports into their countries. But Delhi is not about to bend to such tactics. “If they (EU and U.K.) put in a carbon tax, we’ll retaliate,”… Continue Reading
By Dr. Lars Schernikau On 28 April 2025 the world was jolted back to reality when Spain and Portugal witnessed the most severe blackout in Europe in decades and only a few days later on 2nd May the island of Bali also went dark. If you rely on electricity…and who doesn’t, this isn’t just another energy… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Every April, the world pauses to mark Earth Day — an occasion that once invited reflection on tangible environmental concerns, like cleaning polluted rivers, planting trees, and securing clean air for urban populations. But like so much of the modern environmental movement, Earth Day has been co-opted by a doomsday cult masquerading… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Growing up in the sun-scorched plains of Southern India, where summer temperatures often flirt with 104 degrees Fahrenheit, I learned early that extreme heat is not an anomaly but a seasonal reality to be expected. Yet, all of us confront the metaphorical heat of relentless rhetoric from climate alarmists who insist our… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Having discerned the Green New Deal as fraudulent, President Trump’s shift to maximize proven energy technologies may very well be America’s salvation from an economic disaster that climate policies were sure to deliver. The forced “transition” to alternative energy – relentlessly evangelized by policymakers, environmentalists, and corporate titans – promised to save… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Having declared carbon dioxide (CO₂) and other greenhouse gases (GHGs) to be harmful pollutants, the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) 2009 endangerment finding has been the cornerstone of wrongheaded climate regulation, an impediment to economic growth and destroyer of livelihoods. All the result of rulemaking that puts ideology ahead of science. Empowered to… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Carbon dioxide (CO2) has been predominantly portrayed as the chief culprit driving global warming. For decades, this misconception has guided international policies, prompted ambitious targets for reducing CO2 emissions and driven a shift from reliable and affordable energy resources like coal, oil, and natural gas toward problematic wind and solar sources. However,… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj A few hundred years ago, coffee was almost an unknown commodity with hardly a handful of countries consuming it at a commercial scale. But today, it is a sought-after drink that drives multiple companies to compete for the world’s best beans. An estimated 21 billion pounds of green coffee are produced annually across more… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj The winter of 2025 has been brutal for Europe, exposing the severe flaws of its over-reliance on wind and solar energy. As temperatures plummeted, countries grappled with electricity shortages, soaring energy prices, and the grim specter of blackouts. In the United Kingdom and Germany, two countries that have positioned themselves as global… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Fanciful dreams of green hydrogen powering the future have met reality. The cost of producing this much-hyped fuel will remain prohibitively high for decades to come, crushing hopes of its rapid adoption across industries. Green hydrogen start-ups are shuttering operations, major projects are being shelved, and investors are retreating from what was… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Donald Trump’s second presidential inauguration is only the second in modern American history that dangerous Arctic temperatures have forced indoors. The last was Ronald Reagan’s second one in 1985, when wind chills plunged to below zero. However, this winter’s unstoppable, ferocious cold isn’t confined to the U.S. In the Eastern Hemisphere, temperatures… Continue Reading
Facebook “Fact Checks” Prof. Will Happer By Angela Wheeler The only way to combat censorship is to shine a light on it whenever we see it. In censoring material that contradicts the popular – though increasingly feeble – fiction of a climate crisis, Facebook is quick to discount the credentials of one of the world’s… Continue Reading
By Brian C. Joondeph What’s the difference between weather and climate? Let’s ask the expert class, the governmental National Weather Service. Weather is defined as the state of the atmosphere at a given time and place, with respect to variables such as temperature, moisture, wind speed and direction, and barometric pressure. Climate is defined as the expected frequency of… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj With mist-shrouded peaks of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta and a sun-drenched Caribbean coastline, Colombia’s landscape is as diverse as its people. However, decades of internal conflict and economic uncertainty demonstrated that incredible natural beauty alone are not sufficient for a civilized society. A transformation from more than 50 years of… Continue Reading
