If climate change is an existential threat, should the government ban yachts, mansions, Disney cruises, Disney World, and green phonies? In 2021, the Disney Company issued its 183-page Corporate Social Responsibility Report, which included a section on environmental sustainability. Disney CEO Bob Iger is currently having a superyacht built for himself that is 210 feet […]

Electric vehicles have become the centerpiece of the plan to ward off climate change by drastically reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Biden administration seems to feel that if we can just get people to plug in their cars to a non-emitting electrical socket instead of filling up with carboniferous fossil fuels – voila! By 2050 […]

Members of the Navajo Nation in the southwestern U.S. say the federal government is leaving their people behind with its energy policies, crippling their economy and leaving more people in poverty.

Either climate alarmists don’t actually believe the planet is doomed, or they aren’t as confident in that belief as they claim to be. A panel of scientists recently claimed that humans’ effect on the planet is so significant it should be memorialized through the creation of a new geological epoch that began sometime in […]

The Left likes to treat skeptics of electrical cars as if they were Luddites. Truth is, making an existing product less efficient, but more expensive, doesn’t really meet the definition of innovation. Even the purported amenities and technological advances EV makers like to brag about in their ads have been a regular feature of gas-powered vehicles going […]

In 2019, the Seattle news channel KOMO produced “Seattle is Dying,” a documentary by Eric Johnson that has been seen by more than 15 million people on YouTube. The homeless industrial complex and liberal apologists lost their minds, and said the production was irresponsible and inaccurate “propaganda.” “‘Seattle is Dying’ is something else.

As the world watches, China has been aggressively building its fleet of ships and aircraft in anticipation of a potential attack on Taiwan. To support that military domination, China is also aggressively building its fossil fuel refining capabilities to power those ships and aircraft.

America’s K-12 classrooms are increasingly becoming indoctrination centers for a one-sided view of climate change, aka, global warming and the supposed existential threat to humankind. The Biden administration, universities, left-of-center think tanks and state governments are developing and spreading climate change curriculum that also contains an explicit activist bent to turn the nation’s children into […]
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. Some areas got hit particularly […]
