Coming Attractions: Long Lines At The Pump, High Gas Prices
/in Economy, Environment, Liberty, Politics /by Bonner CohenA brawl broke out at a Raleigh, N.C.-area gas station after the driver of a Honda – desperate to acquire fuel anyway she could — cut in front of another car that had been waiting in a long line of vehicles in need of a fill-up. This breach of service-station etiquette didn’t occur in the […]
Al Gore, Our Melting Planet and the Blizzard of 2018
/in DrRichSwier.com, Elections, Energy, Environment /by John EidsonGore and other high profile climate frauds continue to furiously beat the drums of global warming alarmism. If not for a complicit and totally corrupt western media, the man-made global warming theory would have been blown out of the water decades ago. In early January 2018, a powerful blizzard caused severe disruptions along the East […]
Biden’s Radical 30 X 30 Plan Will Ensure That This Land Will No Longer Be Your Land
/in Economy, Environment, Liberty, News, Politics /by Bonner CohenMoving rapidly to transition the United States away from fossil fuels in the name of combatting climate change, the Biden administration is employing a mix of executive authority and legislative action to force the transformation. While much attention is focused on which climate-related provisions ultimately make it into the administration’s massive infrastructure bill, a little-noticed White […]

CFACT IN ACTION: Land Grabs, Solar Deserts, Turbines Cluttering the Coast
/in DrRichSwier.com, Energy, Environment /by Committee For A Constructive TomorrowWe have unfortunately entered a period of destructive public policy.

We Should Take Them At Their Words
/in Culture Wars, Economy, Environment, Liberty, News, Politics /by Joe BastardiI suppose I should be grateful for people like John Kerry and Gina McCarthy because their very words back up the premise of my book, The Weaponization of Weather in the Phony Climate War.

VIDEO: Grilling Down on the Left’s “Beef” with Cattle Ranchers
/in DrRichSwier.com, Energy, Environment /by Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow America’s farmers and ranchers are under attack. While they tirelessly work to provide food for millions, the Green Left has demonized them as so-called “Destroyers of the Earth.” The EPA, DOI, and UN repeatedly identify meat producers as devourers of wildlife habitat in an attempt to punish them through regulation. And Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez […]
The Pandemic Changes They Are Denying
/in Culture Wars, Environment, Healthcare, Liberty, Politics /by Bruce BialoskyWhile preparing for my vacation I went to the shelves where the unread books are kept.

Green is the new Red
/in DrRichSwier.com, Energy, Environment /by John EidsonThe intent of the Green New Deal is not to “save the planet,” but rather to use climate alarmism as an excuse to destroy America’s capitalist economy. Twelve years ago, a climate research cheating scandal known as “Climategate 2009” rocked the scientific world to the core. Hacked emails among highly influential scientists at the center […]
Climate Models Hotter Than Reality
/in DrRichSwier.com, Energy, Environment, Science /by Committee For A Constructive TomorrowGlobal warming policy is based on climate computer models. These simulations of the temperature of the Earth are wrong and always have been. They start out on the left side of the graph looking pretty good. They have to. Real-world recorded temperature observations had already been made. It’s like projecting the results of races that […]
EV’s Not Family Workhorses, but Short-range Second Cars
/in Economy, Environment, News, Politics /by Ronald SteinWith half of the EV’s in the entire country being located in California, the recent 2021 California study may be a downer for the EV excitement as it shows that EV’s are driven half as much as internal combustion engine vehicles. The study illustrates that EV’s are generally second vehicles and not the primary workhorse vehicle […]
China’s Strange Endorsement of “Net Zero”
/in Economy, Environment, National Security, Politics /by Duggan FlanakinYou have to hand it to Xi Jinping. The Chinese “president for life” last September schmoozed the royalty of the United Nations with his unexpected pledge that his country aims “to have CO2 emissions peak before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality (Net Zero) before 2060.” Xi then urged other nations “to pursue innovative, coordinated, green and open development […]

/in Education, Environment, News, Politics /by Bonner CohenFor environmentalists tossing and turning at night in despair over the fate of their climate-ravaged planet, the prospect of a sleek, high-tech, clean-energy train that could zip along the Northeast Corridor at breathtaking speeds should be a dream come true.

Cities, Countries, and Economies Were Built With Derivatives From Oil, Not By Electricity
/in Education, Environment, National Security, Politics /by Ronald SteinBefore world leaders move too fast to consummate their climate policies, they need to be cognizant of two “aha” moments: 1) wind and solar can only generate intermittent electricity, and 2) electricity cannot manufacture the oil derivatives that are the basis of the thousands of products that have built the world’s cities, countries, and economies […]
Michael Crichton: Is environmentalism a religion?
/in Culture Wars, Education, Environment, Politics /by Jay LehrAs more and more in society have drifted away from a belief in God the void needs to be filled for most human beings. The environment, Crichton said, has filled the void for many. Conventional Judeo-Christian religion began with a perfect world called Eden.

We should return to Michael Crichton’s way of thinking — Part 1
/in Culture Wars, Environment, Politics /by Jay LehrI regard consensus science as an extremely pernicious development that ought to be stopped cold in its tracks. Historically the claim of consensus has been the first refuge of scoundrels; it is a way to avoid debate by claiming that the matter is already settled. Michael Crichton Michael Crichton (1942-2008) wrote 26 novels, many of which […]

Liberal Dark Money Network Is Behind ‘Grassroots’ Support for Dem Climate Bill
/in Culture Wars, Economy, Environment, Liberty, Politics /by Hayden LudwigThe left’s biggest dark money network is behind a “grassroots” organization pushing Democrats’ $500 billion plan to fight “environmental racism.” Rewiring America, one of many environmental groups that have endorsed the BUILD GREEN Act, is part of a massive dark money network run by the D.C.-based Arabella Advisors.

The Real Lessons of Fukushima
/in Economy, Environment, Life Advocacy, National Security, News /by Kelvin KemmA decade has passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake, and the name Fukushima is etched into history.

Fukushima Plus Ten
/in DrRichSwier.com, Energy, Environment /by Committee For A Constructive TomorrowOn March 14, 2011, a tidal wave swept through the Japanese fishing community of Fukushima, destroying homes, businesses, the fishing fleet, and drowning 15,000 people.

The Godfather of Climate Skepticism Makes You a Book You Can’t Refuse
/in Culture Wars, Education, Environment, Politics /by Joe BastardiThere are a lot of great books out there on why there is skepticism about climate, simply from a scientific point of view.

The Many Variants of Fauci’s Mutating Covid Advice
/in Economy, Environment, Healthcare, News, Politics /by Phillip W. MagnessIn an explosive Senate hearing on March 18, Dr. Anthony Fauci clashed with Kentucky Sen.

Several recent studies suggest that both natural and vaccine-induced immunity to […]
China is outplaying President Biden on Climate
/in Economy, Environment, National Security, News, Politics /by Peter MurphyTalk is cheap; the familiar saying goes – especially from dictatorial nations about climate change. The United States “Special Envoy” on climate, John Forbes Kerry of Martha’s Vineyard, met virtually yesterday with his Chinese counterpart, Xie Zhenhua, the head of China’s environmental protection ministry, and more than 30 other nations’ representatives at the Ministerial on Climate Action summit. This annual event […]
