I guess the science isn’t settled The nation’s largest business lobby wants to put the science of global warming on trial. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, trying to ward off potentially sweeping federal emissions regulations, is pushing the Environmental Protection Agency to hold a rare public hearing on the scientific evidence for man-made climate change.

And, guess who is at fault? New research shows oxygen depletion in the atmosphere has been accelerating since 2003, coinciding with the biofuels boom. Yup, Mankind.

An AGW promoter driving down Scaremonger Lane? The hell you say! U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack defended efforts by the Obama administration and Democrats in Congress to pass climate change legislation, saying: “I start from the proposition that climate change is real.

Wait a moment, I thought we were supposed to be planting lots and lots of trees in order to stop the spector of man made global warming so that the Earth cools down and the seas stop rising? Heck, there is a large part of the House AGW bill all about planting trees. No? Jobs […]

Time and time again, I and others have pointed out that the whole anthropogenic global warming silliness is not about “saving the planet from mankind,” but about control. People might have believed in it a bit more if the people who pushed it the hardest weren’t the worst CO2 offenders, but, regardless, let’s ask John […]

Ye reape what ye sow The dozens of public works officials, municipal engineers, conservation agents and others who crowded into a meeting room here one recent morning needed help. Property in their towns was flooding, they said. Culverts were clogged. Septic tanks were being overwhelmed. “We have a huge problem,†said David Pavlik, an engineer […]
