Climate Change Report from Cancun
By Phyllis Schlafly Two of my close associates attended the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Cancun, Mexico last month, along with 20,000 delegates from 194 countries. My friends concluded that this conference had nothing to do with climate change and everything to do with getting the United Nations to redistribute [...]
The Great ‘Climate Change’ Taxpayer Rip-Off of 2011
By Alan Caruba Unless I am seriously mistaken or misinformed, the rate of unemployment in the U.S. remains high and the foreclosure rate on homes is approaching the level of the Depression years. Two major bond rating companies, Moody’s and Standard and Poor’s just warned that, if the federal government doesn’t stop spending and [...]
National Security Threatened By Global Warming Diseases
Liberty Alerts, Corruption Chronicles Less than a year after a U.S. government report claimed global warming causes mental illness and cancer, intelligence and health officials assert that it will also create a national security threat by spreading disease among people and animals. This extremely “worrisome” consequence of climate [...]
Parsing the (Very) Bad News
By Alan Caruba The dictionary says “parse” means to break down into component parts of speech with an analysis of the form, function, and syntactical relationship of each part. The Caruba definition means to take all manner of bits of information and try to make sense of any of it, in part or in whole. Part of the problem is that there [...]
Busybodies, Nags and Control Freaks
By Alan Caruba Not long ago I saw a television documentary on the rise of the Third Reich in Germany. I have, in addition, read any number of books on the period of the 1920s and 30s. The lesson it teaches is that the Nazis did not suddenly arise, take control, and impose a totalitarian government on Germans. It was a matter of slow progress [...]
The EPA Versus the USA
By Alan Caruba It seems almost beyond reason that a single U.S. agency could so hate America that it was prepared to ignore the Constitution, distort a Supreme Court decision, and impose its will on the nation in the name of totally discredited science. That, however, is what the Environmental Protection Agency is seeking to do while [...]
Putting the Lie to Climate “Control”
Anyone who thinks that man controls the climate should take a look at a number of photos taken by a gentleman living in Montana. The photos are featured in an article in the Daily Mail, a London newspaper. Meanwhile, in Cancun, Mexico, thousands of delegates to the latest round of the talks about the UN Kyoto Protocols, demanding limits on [...]

Up to then, J. Edgar Hoover, the Director of the Federal Bureau of [...]
Climate Change Idiocy and The Economist
By Alan Caruba For a brief period I subscribed to The Economist, the London-based internationally distributed magazine, but I stopped as it became obvious that its editors are idiots and the general purpose of the magazine is to ignore any and all facts that might contradict their obsession with “global warming” and now “climate [...]
Fresh Fruit Vending Machine? — T.F. Stern

There’s a story by Ilan Brat courtesy of the Wall Street Journal, The Great Banana Challenge , which explains some of the difficulties faced when attempting to move from junk food vending machines toward more nutritious snacks. “But dispensing [...]

Feds Give Theater Co. $700K For Climate Change Play
Liberty Alerts, Corruption Chronicles Still tainted by a major scandal involving officials who view pornography on taxpayer time, the federal agency that funds science research and education has awarded a New York theater company $700,000 to finance a show about climate change. The perplexing arts grant by the National Science Foundation (NSF) [...]

Liberty Alerts, Patrick Goodenough, CNSNews.com A group of 60 nations will meet next week at the United Nations to push for a tax on foreign currency transactions as a way to generate revenue to meet global poverty-reduction goals, including “climate change” mitigation. Spearheaded by European Union countries, the so-called “innovative [...]
The Union of Concerned Propagandists
By Alan Caruba On July 11, the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) announced that it had launched “a national advertising campaign as part of a broader effort to showcase the dedication and personal histories of scientists studying climate change.” I know quite a few climatologists and meteorologists and the ones I know have been [...]
Refusing to Report the Truth — Alan Caruba
By Alan Caruba I attended the first two International Climate Change Conferences when they were held in New York City, but a change of venue to the hometown of The Heartland Institute, Chicago, was enough to discourage someone like myself who no longer enjoys travel of any kind for any reason. The most recent Heartland conference was held [...]
June 17, 2009: A World Afloat on an Ocean of Oil
By Alan Caruba Considering how much untapped oil is known to exist, not just in the United States, but worldwide, one would think that its current price was some kind of anomaly and it is. It is more the result of speculation than anything else. The most fundamental fact about oil worldwide is that there is lots of it. Though frequently [...]
These Are NOT Your Friends — Alan Caruba
By Alan Caruba June 10, - An email from Friends of the Earth Dear Friend, We're happy to report that, just minutes ago, the Senate voted down a proposal that would kneecap the most important federal tool to reduce climate-destabilizing pollution, the Clean Air Act. Thanks in no small part to the more than 30,000 Friends of the Earth [...]
Stop the EPA from Imposing Cap-and-Tax!
Liberty Alerts, Eagle Forum Action Alert Because patriotic Americans like you rose up to oppose the job-killing, energy rationing Waxman-Markey cap-and-trade legislation last summer (which narrowly passed the House by a vote of 219 to 212, Roll Call 477) and effectively stalled this legislation in the U.S. Senate, President Obama is [...]
“Deniers” Meet and the Media Ignores Them…Again — Caruba
By Alan Caruba “Denial” is not a river in Africa, nor is it a proper term for the legion of climatologists, meteorologists, geologists, and others like myself who have devoted decades to debunking the utter rubbish called “global warming.” So toxic has the term become, the charlatans pushing the fraud have long since abandoned it and [...]
Americans are Drowning in Our Government’s Lies
By Alan Caruba It’s not just the lies about climate change. It’s not just the lies about renewable, wind and solar, energy. It’s not just the lies about so-called endangered species. It’s not just that the Obama administration refuses to name Islam as the source of the terrorist attacks on America. It’s not just the government [...]
The US Government is Pushing Climate Change like a Drug
By Alan Caruba We all know that heroin, cocaine, and methamphetamines are addictive drugs that do a great deal of harm to those addicted to them, but the U.S. government has been pushing global warming, now called climate change, to addict Americans to the belief that the Earth is threatened when it is not. Climate change is what has been [...]
Global Warming Is Earth Worship — Phyllis Schlafly
by Phyllis Schlafly Recently I told you how the distinguished president of the Czech Republic, Vaclav Klaus, stated that global warming is not a matter of temperature or climate change, but is in fact a new religion. Some distinguished American scholars have now declared themselves in agreement with this analysis. For example, the [...]
Utter Dependence — Phil Brennan
Perspectives With Phil Brennan Informed Views from Outside the Beltway Throughout most of the day, this past Monday, March 15, unless you had my cellphone number, I was unreachable. My phone service, my internet connection including my television service and my cell phone were all out. I couldn't get e-mail. Only my radio worked. I was [...]
Global Warming A New Religion — Phyllis Schlafly
by Phyllis Schlafly At the close of the climate conference in Copenhagen, Denmark, the President of the Czech Republic, Vaclav Klaus, made some very important statements. Here's what he said (and I'm quoting): "I'm convinced that after years of studying the phenomenon, global warming is not a matter of temperature. Global warming is a new [...]
Climate Wars! — Alan Caruba
By Alan Caruba Wars come and go, cities are destroyed and rebuilt, monuments are erected, and life goes on. This is the traditional view of war, but right now the world is engaged in the latest battle of a “climate war” that has been going on since the 1970s when the Club of Rome concluded in a report titled, “The real enemy then, is [...]
A Lot of Hooey — Phil Brennan
Perspectives With Phil Brennan Informed Views from Outside the Beltway Al Gore is at it again, ranting and raving in the pages of the New York Times, America's equivalent of the Soviet era's propaganda vehicle Pravda. Despite winters of increasing severity and the recent disclosures of outright trickery by the avatars of the global [...]
Quote of the Day — March 2, 2010 — Alan Caruba
by Alan Caruba From The Times of London: Professor Phil Jones, ill-famed for participating in emails between fellow global warming advocates that revealed a conspiracy to hide data and suppress anything that might cast doubt on the hoax, was questioned by a committee from the Institute of Physics. They were asked “not to press him too closely [...]
