NEW YORK—It’s that time again for the Left. Another crisis it just can’t let go to waste. The crisis of the day is a series of large-scale forest fires in Canada—at least some apparently started by arson—that caused a huge amount of smoke to descend on the United States.

Editors’ Note: Dr. Patrick Moore, one of the original environmentalists and a founder of Greenpeace, talks about the theory of global warming and the role of science. We wonder if this “existential crisis” was brought to you by the same people that claimed WMD in Iraq, Russian collusion, that Covid vaccines work, and that men […]

That rapidly growing wind power development kills birds in ever increasing numbers is clear. That it also kills whales and other marine mammals is becoming clear. So the policy question is how much killing is enough, before we stop killing more? This question seems not to be asked. The stampede to build huge amounts of […]

Meta, the parent firm of Facebook, was in the media promoting its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) virtues in December 2021. That preening didn’t end well for the company this month after a decision was handed down in a lawsuit dealing with the destruction of a trophy fishing lake in Lumpkin, Georgia. “We thank Silicon Ranch .

In May, the Navajo Nation rejected the Biden administration’s plan to withdraw 351,000 acres from consideration for oil and gas leases. President Joe Biden’s Department of the Interior took another step this week to lock up 30 percent of the nation’s land and waterways by 2030. On Friday, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland announced a […]

Farmers and ranchers who assume that their main job is to produce food to feed hungry people stand corrected. John Kerry, the Biden administration’s special envoy on climate, wants to enlist them in the global struggle to combat the “climate crisis.” “A lot of people have no clue that agriculture contributes about 33% of all […]

A popular talking point among green energy evangelists is that gas, oil, and coal are, in large part, successful because they are highly subsidized. Wind and solar, so the argument goes, would win in a fair fight, but, alas, the playing field is far from fair. But the supposed data they are drawing on to […]

Among the dozens of opinions yet to be released by the Supreme Court this term are cases on affirmative action, compelled speech and social media companies’ liability for content posted on their platforms.

Now that the American Dream has been turned into a nightmare in part by overspending that has led to the highest interest rates in the 21st Century, it is high time to admit that, as Melanie Mcdonagh writes in The Telegraph, the electric vehicle dream, too, “has turned into a nightmare.” Mcdonagh, who admits she […]
