The Climate's Gonna Kill Us (Circa 1974)

Back in 1974 news reports were the mirror opposite of today. Ocean temperatures were dropping, polar ice was growing, and the coldest temperatures in 200 years were being recorded at the Arctic Circle.

The media told us we should be worried, very worried.

Forty Years of Drama Queen Scientists

No matter what the concern, drama queen scientists have been pushing the same solution for decades: fewer babies, less consumption, less travel & less freedom. For them, the glass is always half-empty – and every problem is a crisis that requires urgent, radical change.

If the Science Is So Persuasive, Why the Theatrics?

If climate change science is so convincing, why did Timothy Wirth schedule James Hansen’s historic 1988 testimony during the hottest time of the year? And why did he sneak into the hearing room the night before & open the windows so the air conditioning would be ineffective?

The UN's Grim Fantasy: One-Child Laws

Ted Turner has himself fathered five children. But he thinks China’s coercive one-child policies should be exported to other countries. Why aren’t other UN officials scrambling to distance themselves from his remarks?

Speaking of Holiday Cheer...

This being a season of good cheer, perhaps some of you might consider buying me a cocktail, so to speak. I've set up a donation page for this purpose that will retire on January 3rd, 2011.

My book, an expose of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, is halfway complete. Researching and writing it has consumed the bulk of my time for more than a year. Up until now, this effort has been funded solely by my household.

If you think the work I'm doing is important, please consider buying me a holiday drink.
