But how many people today can stop looking at their electronic devices long enough to even think about such things?

Thomas Sowell: The New Inquisition
How long will this country remain free? Probably only as long as the American people value their freedom enough to defend it. But how many people today can stop looking at their electronic devices long enough to even think about such things? Meanwhile, attempts to shut down people whose free speech interferes with other people's political ... MORERonald 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 ... MORENew Study Is A ‘Death Blow’ To Global Warming Hysteria
by Michael Bastasch. A new study
out of Germany casts further doubt on the so-called global warming
“consensus” by suggesting the atmosphere may be less sensitive to
increases in carbon dioxide emissions than most scientists think. A study by scientists at Germany’s Max Planck Institute for
Meteorology found that man-made aerosols had a much ... MOREPatrick Moore: Why I Am A Climate Change Skeptic
Confessions of a Greenpeace co-founder. I am skeptical humans are the main cause of climate change and that it will be catastrophic in the near future. There is no scientific proof of this hypothesis, yet we are told “the debate is over” and “the science is settled.” My skepticism begins with the believers’ certainty they can predict the global ... MOREWalter E Williams: Global Warming
A most anti-science idea. "But the debate is settled. Climate change is a fact," said President Barack Obama in his 2014 State of the Union address. Saying the debate is settled is nonsense, but the president is right about climate change. GlobalChange.gov gives the definition of climate change: "Changes in average weather conditions that persist over ... MOREGlobal Warming Protest Postponed Due To Cold Weather
by Michael Bastach. A propaganda fail at Yale. Yale anti-fossil fuel campaigners have indefinitely postponed a
protest that was set for this weekend due to “unfavorable weather
conditions and other logistical issues.” Fossil Free Yale, a group pushing the university to divest itself from fossil fuels, told the Yale Daily News that frigid, snowy ... MORE
Thomas Sowell: Stormy Weather And Politics
The political utility of dire predictions. It was refreshing to see meteorologists apologize for their dire — and wrong — predictions of an unprecedented snow storm that they had said would devastate the northeast. It was a big storm, but the northeast has seen lots of big snow storms before and will probably see lots of big snow storms ... MOREHow Government Money Effects Climate Change Opinion
by Patrick J Michaels & Paul C "Chip" Knappenberger. In our post last week titled “Climate Alarmism: When is this Bozo Going Down?” we described how new research increasingly casts doubt on the validity of climate models and their projections of future climate change. It is increasing clear that climate models simply predict too much ... MOREWind Turbines are 'Expensive, Unreliable and Inefficient'
by Donna Rachel Edmunds. Study reveals another inconvenient truth. Wind power is too variable and too unpredictable to provide a serious alternative to fossil fuels, a new study by the Scientific Alliance and the Adam Smith Institute has confirmed. The researchers concluded that, although it is true that the wind is always blowing ... MOREThomas Sowell: Random Thoughts On The Passing Scene
Insights derived from wisdom. The great boxing champion Joe Louis once said about one of his opponents, who was known for his speed: "He can run but he can't hide." In the Congressional elections this year, many Democrats are running away from Barack Obama, but they can't hide their record of voting for Obama's agenda more than 90 percent ... MOREWall Street Journal: Climate Science Is Not Settled
by Steven E. Koonin. But government proceeds as though it is. The idea that "Climate science is settled" runs through today's popular and policy discussions. Unfortunately, that claim is misguided. It has not only distorted our public and policy debates on issues related to energy, greenhouse-gas emissions and the environment. But it also has ... MORELeo Vs. Science: Vanishing Evidence For Climate Change
The incandescent ignorance of a Hollywood star. In the runup to the Sept. 23 UN Climate Summit in New York, Leonardo DiCaprio is releasing a series of films about the “climate crisis.” The first is “Carbon,” which tells us the world is threatened by a “carbon monster.” Coal, oil, natural gas and other carbon-based forms of energy are causing ... MOREDavid Rose: The Myth Of Global Meltown
Al Gore's predicted it would be ICE-FREE by now. The speech by former US Vice-President Al Gore was apocalyptic. ‘The North Polar ice cap is falling off a cliff,’ he said. ‘It could be completely gone in summer in as little as seven years. Seven years from now.’ Those comments came in 2007 as Mr Gore accepted the Nobel Peace Prize for his ... MOREDeroy Murdock: Global Warmists Getting Hot Under Collar
Where is the warming? As I start to write these words, I am on my Manhattan balcony savoring a Friday evening. It normally is oppressive this time of year. Stifling humidity and sweltering temperatures relentlessly squeeze New Yorkers in a brutal vice. The infernal stickiness typically keeps it from cooling down, even at night. It is not unusual ... MOREFeds Spend $450K To Help Indians With Climate Change
Taxpayers scalped, weather or not. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) plans to spend up to $450,000 in taxpayer dollars to teach Native American tribes in the Great Basin region ”climate adaptation plans” for their hunting, fishing and gathering activities. “Due to climate change, the natural landscapes are becoming ... MOREGlobal Warmists Flee The Arctic And Move To California
The Arctic is having record cold this summer. The cold is going to produce the most Arctic summer sea ice in a decade. After being obsessed with the Arctic and Polar bears for years, there is no mention of this in the press. 78% of the US has been below normal temperature over the last 10 months. Almost the entire country except for ... MORE
