Canadian oil already “spilling” into the U.S.

Environmentalists mistakenly think that blocking the Keystone pipeline will prevent crude oil, derived from Canada’s oil sands, from being extracted and from being conveyed into the U.S. to be refined into gasoline, asphalt, and other products that are important to the transportation and manufacturing sectors. Their ultimate goal is to stop all development of the Canadian resource. The Canadian oil spilled as a result of a recent train derailment in Minnesota highlights their misguided efforts.

Climategate 3.0: “Mr. FOIA” says lying elitists are destroying civilization

Mr. FOIA denies these absurd allegations in his 3.0 message. “I took what I deemed the most defensible course of action, and would do it again,” he said. “That's right; no conspiracy, no paid hackers, no Big Oil. The Republicans didn't plot this. USA politics is alien to me, neither am I from the U.K. There is life outside the Anglo-American sphere.”

Eco-imperialism joins vulture environmentalism

Gina McCarthy, President Obama’s choice to replace Lisa Jackson at the Environmental Protection Agency, has been chastised for having lied to Congress, in claiming that EPA did not use “dangerous manmade climate change” to justify new 54.5 mpg standards for cars and light trucks. She’s also been implicated in the agency’s practice of using fake emails to hide questionable dealings and activities.

Electric cars losing charge

Since his first term in office, President Obama has pledged to get 1 million electric cars onto America’s roads by the year 2015. And while that promise has been repeated, it appears all is not going well with the President’s initiative.

Fitting the science to the theory on climate change!

Although “climate” is generally associated with periods of at least three decades, less than one and one-half decades following mid-1970s “scientific” predictions that the next Ice Age was rapidly approaching, the media trumpeted a new and opposite alarm…a man-made global warming crisis.

Of mice and men

When you hear of mice and men, you probably think of the John Steinbeck novel. But when scientists hear these words, they no doubt think of rodent studies used to examine human diseases.

Climategate 3.0 “Mr. FOIA’s” full message

Read Mr. FOIA's message. Climategate 3.0 is set to rock the global warming establishment. 220,000 encrypted emails which document what goes on behind the scenes at team global warming are suddenly decrypted and free for the public to view.

Obama’s misguided carbon tax plans

The only thing that will happen if carbon taxes are inflicted on our economy is that American jobs, economic growth, living standards, health, welfare, dreams and lives will be sacrificed for nothing.

Questions for Obama’s Interior, Energy and EPA nominees

The President’s outgoing Energy and Interior Secretaries and EPA Administrator were all highly controversial, divisive figures.. The nominees to replace them have all been called “team players,” in an administration that has been decidedly anti-hydrocarbon and pro-renewable energy. They all have murky track records, and extensive ties to climate alarmist and anti-drilling factions of the environmentalist movement.

A new jolt for electric cars?

Electric cars are known to save on gas, but can they also be used to power electrical appliances during a blackout? Well strange as that may sound, that is precisely what electric car owners living in Japan did.
