Agendacrats gone wild. The government's environmental rules defeat even environmentalists. Thomas Collier is a Democrat who managed environmental policy for Bill Clinton and Al Gore. Then he noticed a mining opportunity in Alaska, one he calls "the single largest deposit of gold and silver that is not being developed in the entire world." Tom's ... MORE

John Stossel: The Anti-Science Left
Putting politics above science. This year is the 10th anniversary of a book called "The Republican War on Science." I could just as easily write a book called "The Democratic War on Science." The conflict conservatives have with science is mostly caused by religion. Some religious conservatives reject evolution, and some oppose stem cell ... MORE

Global Warming: When Science Meets Science Fiction
by Tim Constantine. One of the most effective ways to sell your political agenda is to back up your concerns with factual information. That info may be statistical or scientific. In the absence of solid facts, the next most effective method often seems to be to instill fear. If you don’t support “agenda X” there will be dire consequences. In the case ... MORE
Elise Cooper: How Not To Handle A Water Crisis
A crisis created by government regulations. Californians have a love affair with water. It’s used for pools, irrigation, green grasses, and washing cars. Yet, because of the drought the grass is turning brown, cars are staying dirty, and pools might be a thing of the past.

Gary North: The Global Warmers Have Lost The War
The ultimate inconvenient truth. It’s always nice to see a leftist outfit finally fess up to a lost cause. The global warming crowd has clearly lost, and this Mother Jones article makes this clear. The governments of the world have not implemented the Kyoto treaty of 1992 or its 1997 update. The whole thing lapsed on December 31, 2012. It’s over. ... MORE
Chriss Street: The Sun Is Engaging In Climate Change Denial
Another problem for Al. The sun is known to be the main driver of all weather and climate. With 99.86% of the mass in our solar system, the great ball of violent fire in the sky has recently gone quiet in what is likely to be the weakest sunspot cycle in more than a century and actually flatlined in recent days. Weak solar cycles, like the current one, ... MORE

Michael Grable: The California Drought & The Free Market
Free markets free people. Controlled markets control people. A long story in The Desert Sun (a Palm Springs daily) recently manufactured a lake out of a puddle in California's perennial water problems. Maybe it's just Governor Moonbeam's gang feeding propaganda to the fourth estate, but it's a good example of how government regulation and media ... MORE
Stephen Moore: Greens Against The Poor
How the climate change agenda hurts the poor. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton,
Elizabeth Warren and the whole gang of Democratic leaders claim that
one of their highest priorities is to lift up the middle class and
reduce the income gap between rich and poor. That goal collides
with what they admit is their very highest priority: stopping ... MORE

Ronald Bailey: What Evidence Would Be Needed To Persuade You That Man-Made Climate Change Is Real?
Evidence does not mandate any particular policy. In 2005, I changed my mind about climate change: I concluded that the balance of the scientific evidence
showed that man-made global warming could likely pose a significant
problem for humanity by the end of this century. My new assessment did
not please a number of my friends, some of ... MORE
