By Vijay Jayaraj It’s all too predictable: A jet-setting celebrity or politician wades ceremoniously into hip-deep surf for a carefully choreographed photo op, while proclaiming that human-driven sea-level rise will soon swallow an island nation. Of course, the water is deeper than the video’s pseudoscience, which is as shallow as the theatrics. The scientific truth… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj A coordinated offensive unfolded with precision September 2 against five scientists questioning the popular media’s most sacred bogeyman – the hypothesis that human-induced emissions of carbon dioxide threaten to overheat the planet. The scientists attacked had written a report published in July by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), “A Critical Review… Continue Reading
By Steve Goreham This year, European nations announced plans to pursue artificial intelligence. National leaders announced AI spending goals totaling hundreds of billions of euros in efforts to catch up to the United States. But AI requires huge amounts of electrical power, conflicting with Europe’s commitment to achieve a Net Zero power grid. Since ChatGPT… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj The era of hypothetical warnings about the cost of green policies is over. We have now entered the brutal phase of reporting with empirical data the economic devastation that the foolish “decarbonization” agenda has left in its wake. The latest exhibit in this gallery of ruin is New Zealand, where the so-called… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj When most people think of ASEAN – a diverse association of Southeast Asian nations that include Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam – they picture Thailand’s beaches, Singapore’s gleaming skyline or Indonesia’s temples. What they don’t see is an economic juggernaut that will drive some of… Continue Reading
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 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
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 Simple narratives are employed to seduce a populace, and none is more seductive today than the promise of “carbon-free” energy. In California, a state often touted as a green pioneer, Gov. Gavin Newsom celebrated an “achievement” whose announcement was free of nuance and deficient of truth. “Two-thirds of California’s power now comes… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj When uranium centrifuges are being bombed and the specter of nuclear war hovers in the background, it is easy to forget the significant role nuclear power plays in meeting energy needs. Yet, many view nuclear as the dominant energy source of the future. Pound-for-pound, nuclear fission can produce many thousands of times… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Among the climatically correct, nothing is more scandalous than describing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions as beneficial. You can be blacklisted from public forums, professional networking sites, and even be removed from your tenured university position as an accomplished scientist. Nonetheless, the truth is this: CO2 is fundamental to the photosynthetic process by… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj You wake up to an alarm, flick on the light, brew coffee, and drive to work. Every step requires energy – the stuff that shares the coin of physical reality with matter, the E in E = MC2. It keeps homes warm, food fresh and economies running. Supplying 80% of the world’s… Continue Reading
By Steve Goreham This week the United States experienced the first major heat wave of 2025. Over 160 million people in the Midwest, the South, and the East Coast experienced temperatures approaching 100oF. Many in the media claim that the soaring temperatures are due to human-caused global warming. But a look at history shows that… Continue Reading
By Frits Byron Soepyan As Canadians host the 50th annual G7 Summit this week in Kananaskis, Alberta, they can expect a deluge of “climate-saving” proclamations — rhetoric divorced from scientific evidence and economic reality. This elite gathering of the world’s leading economies, along with the European Union, plans to spotlight climate resilience, net-zero targets, green certification, and… Continue Reading
The following response to a recent, questionable “study” on future alarming increase of glacial retreat was submitted June 5, 2025 to the Journal Science. NOTE: As of June 24, 2025, the response was not published,. This triggered a letter from the author to Sudip Parikh, the Executive Publisher of Science inquiring why it hadn’t been… Continue Reading
By Dr. Bruce Everett and Gordon Tomb The recent Nature article, “Carbon Majors and the Scientific Case for Climate Liability,” tries to further the alarmists’ dream of pinning alleged harms of “extreme” weather on the world’s largest producers of fossil fuels. Christopher W. Callahan and Justin S. Mankin, both at Dartmouth College when their article… 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

Parikh, PhD, AAAS Chief Executive Officer and Executive Publisher, Science Journals Re: AAAS Climate Change Public Policy Statement Dear Drs. Francisco, Maldonado, and Parikh, The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) is the largest American multidisciplinary scientific society… Continue Reading
By Steve Goreham Climate models have been the basis for concern about climate change for more than 35 years. The US government, the United Nations, and organizations across the world have used model projections to warn about global warming and to demand a shift to renewable energy. But Trump administration budget cuts at NASA, NOAA,… Continue Reading
By Gordon Tomb Gov. Josh Shapiro’s proposal to cap electricity prices could, perversely, lead to higher customer bills and a greater risk of blackouts, according to America’s Power, a trade organization of coal-fired power plants. Following negotiations with the governor, power grid operator PJM Interconnection submitted a plan to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)… Continue Reading
By Wallace Manheimer “So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself – nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advances.” This was the opening statement in Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s inaugural address in 1933. The statement was made… 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
