‘There Is No Climate Emergency’: Scientists Call for Reasoned Debate
‘There Is No Climate Emergency’: Scientists Call for Reasoned Debate The message was clear: “There is no climate emergency.” With those five simple words, a global network of scientists and professionals attempted to inject reasonableness and decorum into what should be a robust discussion about a complex scientific and public policy issue, but has instead degenerated into […]
The Myth of Imminent Collapse
The Myth of Imminent Collapse The ills that have haunted our species since time immemorial — starvation, illness, protection from the elements — are less prevalent than ever before.

Poland: Zero Emissions Is A Trillion-Dollar Fantasy Reducing emissions in Poland to zero will cost the country between $760 and $980 billion (700-900 billion euro), said Energy Minister Krzysztof Tchorzewski, as quoted by Reuters. “Of course, these costs would obviously be spread over years. But I treat it as a fantasy when someone says that Poland is […]
The carbon trap by Paul Chefurka
The carbon trap by Paul Chefurka Preface. We are caught in the carbon trap — we utterly depend on fossils that don’t have an electric replacement. Someday people will figure this out the hard way, but Chefurka compassionately points out that there is no one to blame for our situation, and it’s not something we […]
Why People Fail to Understand There are Cycles to Everything
Why People Fail to Understand There are Cycles to Everything There tends to be a fairly regular 21-year cycle in extreme climate shifts with respect to volatility. There was the extreme cold of 1936, followed 21 years later with a heatwave that melted the ice in the arctic, and then going into 1978 they were […]
Oops! Gene editing not as precise as advertised
Oops! Gene editing not as precise as advertised Sometimes a headline gives you practically the entire story. Take this one: “Gene-Editing Unintentionally Adds Bovine DNA, Goat DNA, and Bacterial DNA, Mouse Researchers Find.” The writer details how this happens, of course. And, there is an important subtext. The problem is chalked up by scientists and regulators to […]
Climate Change That Ignores History
Climate Change That Ignores History Climate has ALWAYS changed from decade to decade. There were major swings (volatility) during the 1930s. You had the dust bowl during the summer and in 1936 you had record cold. The 1936 North American cold wave, which also hit Japan and China, still rank among the most intense cold waves in […]

Want To Save The Environment? De-Fund The Pentagon.

Canadian industry is ‘addicted to fossil fuels,’ but the Green Party can change that, says Elizabeth May Goal isn’t to come up with something politically palatable, it’s to secure future: May Green Party Leader Elizabeth May says Canadians want action on climate change, but are stymied by living in a society “hardwired to fossil fuel […]
More talk and little action
More talk and little action The grim reality is that Greta Thunberg’s passionate speech lambasting global leaders at the UN climate summit in New York on September 23 is unlikely to make much of a difference in the way the largest global polluters do business. The top emitters aren’t bothered: the US didn’t show up; China yawned; […]
