Perspective: Climate Change Gave Us the Great Salt Lake, but It’s Not the Reason It’s Shrinking Today

By William Hayden Smith The Great Salt Lake, or the “Bad Water,” as it was known to the Shoshoni, exists thanks to climate change. The present lake was formed from a much larger lake, Lake Bonneville, about 30,000 years ago. A drier climate reduced Lake Bonneville to the Great Salt Lake’s current dimensions. The lake… Continue Reading

Opinion: What Causes Climate Change?

by Daniel W. Nebert “Global warming wreaks havoc in California.” “Ocean acidification will make climate change worse.” “Miami will soon be underwater.” “2022 warmest year on record.” Each day we are bombarded with scary news stories. What’s true versus what’s exaggerated? What should the average citizen “believe?” “Climate” is measured in 30-year segments. Conversely, “weather”… Continue Reading

Cyclone Mocha: Don’t Fall for the Climate Bait

By Vijay Jayaraj On May 14, Cyclone Mocha made landfall near Myanmar and Bangladesh. It was not surprising to see many mainstream media blame climate change for it. The pattern has now become common.

Climate Craze Contributes to Loss of Inuit Freedom

by Vijay Jayaraj Polar bear populations remain healthy in the Arctic irrespective of the once popular images of bears somehow suffering from a warming planet. Nevertheless, native people’s freedoms are being restricted by impractical government policies inspired by an irrational adherence to a doomsday vision. Canada is home to approximately two-thirds of the global polar… Continue Reading

More Carbon Dioxide Is Good, Less Is Bad

By Gregory Wrightstone People should be celebrating, not demonizing, modern increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). We cannot overstate the importance of the gas. Without it, life doesn’t exist. First, a bit of history: During each of the last four glacial advances, CO2’s concentration fell below 190 parts per million (ppm), less than 50 percent… Continue Reading

Nuclear Energy is a Game Changer, But Not For Climate Reasons!

By Vijay Jayaraj Nuclear energy offers humanity the safest, most efficient approach to harnessing natural resources for its use. As the densest energy source available, nuclear fuel requires the least amount of material and land for electricity production. This is sufficient reason to support the technology. Yet, some promote it as a means to address… Continue Reading

Solar and Wind are Insulting Non-Solutions for Energy-Poor Africans

by Vijay Jayaraj More than half the population of sub-Saharan Africa lives without reliable electricity, hindering the region’s development and economic growth. Even basic services in hospitals are a rarity due to insufficient power supplies. Offers of off-grid wind and solar energy as a solution demonstrate a lack of both a long-term vision and a proper understanding… Continue Reading

Scientific Societies Risk Reputations by Endorsing Climate Scare

By Wallace Manheimer Statements of scientific societies are often used to justify extreme measures for dealing with a supposed climate emergency. “The scientific community is telling us in no uncertain term,” began a statement addressing the climate issue on the 2020 campaign website of doomsayer Sen. Bernie Sanders. Such statements make me nervous. They assume… Continue Reading
