by Gordon Tomb Each month, Pennsylvania’s 6 million electricity customers—all facing rising bills—are charged for services of questionable value without knowing how much they are paying and, for most, that the charge even exists. Enacted by the legislature in 2004, Pennsylvania’s Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards Act (AEPS) requires that 18 percent of an electricity seller’s offering… Continue Reading
by Angela Wheeler For years, the CO2 Coalition and independent scientists have warned that the U.S Fifth National Climate Assessment (NCA5) rested on a foundation of sand. Its dramatic projections of catastrophe relied heavily on U.N.-sponsored Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 (RCP8.5) and its successor SSP5-8.5—both extreme predictions of carbon dioxide emissions that were treated as… Continue Reading
by Dr. Samuel Furfari The Dutch Ministry of Defense has published its Energy Security Roadmap, a national strategy to ensure that its armed forces have reliable energy supplies. While produced by a single NATO member, the document reflects a broader reality: Energy security is inseparable from military power. The “roadmap” defines energy security as the… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein and Mike Ariza With no pipelines crossing the Sierra Nevada, California is an energy island, separated from the crude oil supplies and refinery infrastructure of the other continental states. As a result, the state’s transportation fuel needs—for airports, cars, trucks, and ships serving three of America’s busiest ports—must be met by in-state… Continue Reading
By Kees de Lange Does the IPCC represent a reliable scientific organization? In the meantime, many scientists have convincingly demonstrated that the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) is not a reliable scientific organization. It does not hurt to give a brief overview of the considerations. Let’s start with the mission of the IPCC. The… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein*, Olivia Vaughan, and Steve Curtis Electricity policy, at its core is economic policy. Nations that can produce abundant, reliable, and affordable electricity create the conditions for industrial growth, technological leadership, higher wages, and rising living standards. Those that fail to do so eventually discover that electricity shortages are a direct threat to… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein and Mike Ariza Russian transportation fuel shortages are caused by Ukraine drone attacks, while California shortages are directly related to political over regulations Worldwide economies run on continuous and uninterruptable electricity AND transportation fuels like the following: Jet fuel for the military and international airports, diesel fuel for trucks and construction equipment,… Continue Reading
by Angela Wheeler Rather than a serious assessment of the connection between extreme weather and climate change, a recent National Academies of Sciences (NAS) webinar presented a 253-page report engineered to reinforce the shopworn claim that emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) threaten a climate crisis. The hour-long presentation was as thin on real science as… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein and Dick Storm To meet the growing demand for continuous, uninterruptable, and emissions-free electricity, the world economies are pursuing Nuclear Power generation. Most California politicians have hated the zero-emissions generated electricity from nuclear generations since 1976 when they passed the moratorium on new nuclear power plants. Nuclear is the cleanest, safest, proven,… Continue Reading
By Dr. Joseph Fournier Americans often picture Canada as a vast northern forest – an endless expanse of pristine wilderness. But the truth is far more complex and increasingly relevant to U.S.–Canada policy debates. Eighty‑nine percent of Canada is Crown land, owned by federal or provincial governments. Yet only about 10–12% of that land receives… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein and Mike Ariza The 4th largest economy in the world is becoming a National Security Risk for America. With the loss of transportation fuel supplies from Asian refineries resulting from the Iranian War and California’s huge dependency, the 4th largest economy in the world is on the precipice of an unprecedented, self-inflicted… Continue Reading
By Angela Wheeler Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan’s admission at a July Senate hearing raises troubling questions about accountability in judicial education. Kagan confirmed she had written the foreword for the Federal Judicial Center’s Reference Manual on Scientific Evidence without reading a chapter on climate change that was eventually removed because of objectionable biases –… Continue Reading

Frequency of Dust Storms: Increases Due to Climate Change (WHO, 2025) vs Decreases Due to Complex Factors in the Sahara-Sahel Region (Yeo et al., 2026)!
By Ganapathy Shanmugam, Ph.D. The prevailing climate narrative is that the frequency of dust storms (Fig. 1) tends to increase with global warming (Fig. 2). But the empirical datasets from the Sahara-Sahel region (Fig. 3) reveal that the opposite trend is true for the period 1984-2023 (Fig. 4). Dust storms A dust storm, also called… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein*, Olivia Vaughan, and Steve Curtis When Rwandan President Paul Kagame stood up at the Nuclear Energy Summit in Paris earlier this year, he didn’t talk like a leader hedging his bets on energy policy. He talked like a determined man in a hurry. Kagame told the assembled audience that nuclear generated electricity technology “is… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein and Mike Ariza Economies run on transportation, thus logical questions to California political leaders that will expose their Energy Literacy. California, the 4th largest economy in the world, is growing its dependence on transportation fuels made from refined crude oil at foreign refineries which is becoming a national security risk for America.… Continue Reading
By Frits Byron Soepyan By reporting the sensational claims of UNICEF, the Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano joins in the fearmongering of climate alarmists whose credibility suffers from a lack of scientific facts. Drawing on UNICEF’s The Children’s Climate Risk Report 2026, the paper’s front-page, June 16 story, “Emergenze climatiche: Il cielo sopra i bam (Climate Emergencies: The… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein and Mike Ariza With no pipelines over the Sierra Mountains, California is an energy island separated from the crude oil supply and the infrastructure of oil refineries within the other 49 States. Collectively, California, the 4th largest economy in the world, consumes a humongous 61 million gallons of ALL transportation fuels PER DAY… Continue Reading
By Gordon Tomb Northeastern states are scrambling to address rising energy costs. New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and others are even considering abandoning some of their most restrictive Green New Deal-style emissions policies to increase the supply of affordable sources. Such new energy projects are among the most difficult endeavors to bring to fruition. Requiring… Continue Reading
By Ronald Stein and Lars Schernikau Electricity demands are growing worldwide, and the unpopular questions around what it truly takes to power our modern society beyond JUST electricity, are energy literacy conversations that provoke critical thought. Conversation encourages young minds to challenge assumptions, ask difficult questions, and resist accepting simplistic answers to deeply complex challenges.… Continue Reading
By Ganapathy Shanmugam, Ph.D. Deep Ocean Currents have been well documented in the World’s Oceans ((Heezen, Hollister and Ruddiman, 1966; Hollister, 1967; Pequegnat et al. 1972; Shepard et al. 1979; Shanmugam, 2016, 2017, 2021).

By Gregory Wrightstone Policymakers are demanding that farmers scale back meat production, reengineer agricultural systems, and burden consumers with higher grocery bills to prevent a fabricated climate catastrophe. This is fearmongering based on false claims that methane emitted as a byproduct of livestock digestion contributes significantly to allegedly dangerous atmospheric warming. Happily, the pseudoscience of… Continue Reading
By Ron Stien California is the 4th largest economy in the world and an “ENERGY ISLAND that is isolated from the other 49 States by the Sierra Mountains. There are no pipelines over those majestic mountains to connect the State to the rest of the country. Thus, California’s in-State refineries have been producing ALL the… Continue Reading
By Ganapathy Shanmugam, Ph.D. The recent U.S./Israel-Iran War, which began on February 28, 2026, triggered the closure of the Strait of Hormuz—the world’s most critical oil chokepoint—halting roughly 20% of global petroleum liquids supply and effectively stopping oil and LNG exports from the Persian Gulf. This sudden disruption has caused sharp price spikes in fossil… Continue Reading
By John Whitmore Jenkins Which One is indoctrinating? I graduated from both schools. Ironically, the one with government oversight is the one with academic freedom.
