Global Warming-Energy-Environment

When the U.N. doesn't even try to estimate how expensive its latest climate proposal would be, that should be a red flag that most of the public would flatly reject it.

Even if a poor household "makes" $50 or even $100 a year from a rebate scheme, it could still be worse off from the higher energy and transportation prices it must pay due to the carbon tax.

Does government really need to regulate everything? Can no program be allowed to expire?

Insane "eco" proposition would all but shut down oil production--and set bad national precedent

Subtle changes in moss leaves can indicate air pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide, are present

Realist experts show why $60-80 trillion over next 17 years would be wasted on imaginary crisis

The core problem is that wind turbines generate electricity by extracting energy out of the air, slowing down wind and otherwise altering the exchange of heat, moisture, and momentum between the surface and the atmosphere

Nanoparticles could help pinpoint oil pockets, monitor underground conditions and extract more trapped oil

What the poorer nations on this globe really need is not less but more cheap and reliable energy. So, instead of wasting (fossil fuel generated) energy on hare-brained "save-the-climate" schemes, let's send them this energy in form of free coal, oil,

Conjectural future tolls from climate change pale by comparison to energy poverty deaths now

The renewable energy industry is financed by government subsidies and state mandates

The problem with the NOAA data is that it is fake data. NOAA creates the warming trend by altering the data.

California can expect to see a large increase in the cost of its electricity in exchange for uncertain benefits. If wind, solar are the energy sources of the future--with reliability and low costs--then why the need for subsidies and mandates

Questioning Climate Hysteria By | September 29, 2018
Scientists publishing in peer-reviewed journals have increasingly affirmed that there is nothing historically unprecedented or remarkable about today's climate when viewed in the context of long-term natural variability

Washington should go back to the drawing board. It’s time to stand up for consumers and fix the broken RFS once and for all
