On the U.K. based website The Independent, their science section published a report on March 19th entitled “Dams:  Deep Trouble.”  Below this ominous title, the tag line read “Are vast dams around the world masking the full extent of sea level rise?”
The story goes on to state “over the past 50 years, new dams and […]

That is the relevant question, when you read alarmist stories about ice melt in Antarctica.  On March 25th, for example, the BBC dutifully reported “Antarctic Shelf Hangs by a Thread” in a report by science correspondant Helen Briggs.  Here is the tag line below the title:  “A chunk of ice the size of the Isle of […]

The ideals of unions are noble and pure.  The rights of the ordinary worker are indeed worth fighting for.  But there are unions and there are unions.
In the competitive private arena, unions that ask for too much will eventually derail their company’s financial success.  For example, unions negotiated defined retirement benefits decades ago with America’s major […]

Back in June 2006 we posted “We Need More Freeways,” a position that has, along with our nuanced position on climate change - and perhaps other controversial positions, to lead to a recent post on DeSmogBlog entitled “EcoWorld: a website officially unconcerned with accuracy.”  DeSmogBlog’s “about us” page states they “exist to clear the PR pollution that […]

Climate models forecast increasing temperatures on earth because of increasing levels of atmospheric CO2, but observational data appears to contradict this claim. 
Subsequent to publishing the feature ”The Fluid Envelope - A Case Against Climate Alarm“ by Dr. Richard Lindzen, we received an email from a science journalist questioning one of the central assertions in Lindzen’s report.  The writer […]
