The US Chamber of Commerce’s “New” Take on Climate Change
The US Chamber of Commerce’s “New” Take on Climate Change The climate is changing, and humans are contributing to these changes.

Same ol’ same ol’ battle: The more things change, the more they stay the same On August 21, 2009, The Wall Street Journal reported that “…many scientists say deep emissions cuts are necessary … to prevent … dangerous consequences of global warming,” and also reported […]
Let’s get ‘creaturely’: A new worldview can help us face ecological crises
Let’s get ‘creaturely’: A new worldview can help us face ecological crises No farmer has ever gone out to the barn to start the day and discovered that a baby tractor had been born overnight. For farmers who work with horses, the birth of a foal would not be surprising. That observation may seem silly, […]

The Promise of the Green New Deal
The Promise of the Green New Deal I also want to mildly praise the resolution’s anti-incrementalism — because there are virtues in trying to offer not just a technical blueprint but a comprehensive vision of the good society, and virtues as well in insisting that dramatic change is still possible in America, that grand projects […]
Green New Physics
Green New Physics You could probably say I’m sympathetic to the schoolchildren protesting against climate change, and I’m sympathetic to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her call for a Green New Deal. Young people are the future, and they deserve a voice about that future. At the same time, I’m also deeply skeptical about their understanding of […]
I Love the Green New Deal But …
I Love the Green New Deal But … Ever since our first ancestor lit a fire, humans have been pumping CO2 into the atmosphere. Add to that the first herder because ruminants are another large emitter of greenhouse gas (GHG). Some people want to declare a national emergency and ban fossil fuels within ten years. […]
Could a Green New Deal Save Civilization?
Could a Green New Deal Save Civilization? To fully and systematically address the climate/energy crisis, the plan will have to be far broader in scope than what is currently being proposed. And while we need to mobilize society as a whole with a World War II-level of effort, the reality is that there’s never been […]
The Real New Deal
The Real New Deal While we’re on the issue of the Green New Deal, here’s an article by Dr. D. with an intro by Dr. D., one he sent me in the mail that contained the actual article, and that I think shouldn’t go to waste. I hope he agrees. Waste being the key term […]
Civil War Would Erupt If “Green Deal” Socialists Actually Get What They Want
Civil War Would Erupt If “Green Deal” Socialists Actually Get What They Want In the months preceding the 2016 presidential election, I predicted a Trump election win but tried to temper expectations with the reality that there were multiple scenarios exploitable by globalists which could turn the conservative elation into confusion and chaos. Just after the election, […]
Green New Deal Dystopia
Green New Deal Dystopia It’s entirely possible the Green New Deal socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doesn’t have a clue and she is a useful idiot. She may in fact believe the Green New Deal is a panacea for global warming. Patrick Moore, the founder of Greenpeace who left that organization in disgust, tweeted AOC and put […]
Green New Deal Reveals the Naked Truth of Agenda 21
Green New Deal Reveals the Naked Truth of Agenda 21 Sometimes if you fight hard enough and refuse to back down, no matter the odds, your truth is vindicated and prevails! For twenty years I have been labeled a conspiracy theorist, scaremonger, extremist, dangerous, nut case. I’ve been denied access to stages, major news programs, […]
The Great Discontent
The Great Discontent Johannes Vermeer Woman holding a balance 1662-63 The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise.-Hazel Henderson It’s often hard to understand how people can be aware of something but then fail to link it to a perfectly logical next step, […]
Dreams Die Hard
Dreams Die Hard Somewhere between the fevered Zzzz’s of American Dreaming and the blinding shock of being “woke,” there is a recognition that an awful lot about contemporary life is not working and can’t go on. At the bottom of this discontent is the mistaken notion that the unwind of modernity can be arrested or […]
Rabobank: “We Can’t Even Imagine What The Chinese Response Will Be To The Green New Deal”
Rabobank: “We Can’t Even Imagine What The Chinese Response Will Be To The Green New Deal” The bent out of shape of things to come If regular readers have not picked up on our view on US-China relations, it is that although just enough good will can be scraped together to kick the can down […]
