By John Whitmore Jenkins Beginning around 1760 at the end of the Little Ice Age, the Earth’s temperatures began increasing which has continued to the present. A century after this warming cycle began, the Industrial Revolution began generating energy by burning fossil fuels which emitted increasing levels of CO2 into the atmosphere. Some scientists and… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj Though touted as next generation energy sources, solar and wind technologies have been shoe-horned into electricity grids only through government fiat and subsidies. Their failure to be adopted freely by investors and consumers lies in the pathetic energy density of solar panels and wind turbines. Energy density is defined as the amount… Continue Reading

World’s Most Populous Nation Has Put Solar Out To Pasture. Other Countries Should Follow Suit
By Vijay Jayaraj During his debate with former President Donald Trump, President Joe Biden claimed: “The only existential threat to humanity is climate change.” What if I told you that it is not climate change but climate policies that are the real existential threat to billions across our planet? The allure of a green utopia masks… Continue Reading
by John Staddon Despite North Carolina slowly injuring itself by trying to eliminate oil, coal, and natural gas as energy sources, the scientific basis for “net zero” (the complete elimination of fossil-fuel usage) is based more on “general agreement” than hard data. Climate scientists nevertheless sound optimistic about the progress that is being made in destroying… Continue Reading
This Letter to the Editor, written by CO2 Coalition Member Euan Mearns, was published in The Press and Journal, October 18, 2023: Sir, On 4th October, the P&J carried an interesting editorial authored by Andrew Bowie MP for West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine. He claimed that the Prime Minister was just starting a net-zero debate. That… Continue Reading
By Steve Goreham Artificial intelligence (AI) is taking the world by storm. New AI applications are announced daily. Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and many companies tout plans for artificial intelligence capabilities. But the AI revolution is bad news for global efforts to achieve net-zero emissions. The AI revolution is based on high-performance AI chips,… Continue Reading
By Gregory Wrightstone I traveled to Oregon last week at the invitation of a CO2 Coalition supporter. Besides being completely off the grid at a lodge on the scenic Rogue River, I gave a presentation to about 50 people from southern Oregon after returning from the wilderness. As you can imagine, the climate zealots are in… Continue Reading
by Gordon Tomb Implementing net zero will depress the global economy more than the atmospheric warming that the campaign against carbon dioxide emissions is supposed to prevent, according to a comparison of research by recognized experts. In other words, abandoning efforts to eliminate the greenhouse gas emissions of fossil fuels likely would make virtually everybody… Continue Reading

“All-the-Above” Energy Policy Is a Compromise That Reverses Human and Environmental Progress
by Dr. Indur Goklany The Net Zero energy policy pursued by the current administration would essentially, sooner or later, phase out fossil fuels. That would roll back much of the progress America and the world has witnessed since the 19th century in economic and human well-being while increasing pressures on the rest of nature. An… Continue Reading
By Vijay Jayaraj We’ve read a lot about how the Ukraine conflict has increased the price of energy in the international market. However, the root of the ongoing energy crisis is unrealistic policies based on unscientific conclusions about climate, often drafted in plush European offices. For years, energy markets across the globe were able to… Continue Reading
Vijay Jayaraj The wheels of the Net Zero bandwagon always were wobbly but now appear to be falling off altogether with leaders of China and Russia saying their countries won’t be represented at the COP26 at Glasgow this week. For Western climate alarmists, the absence of the two countries could be a lethal blow to… Continue Reading
