Solar lies
Wind and solar are in the subsidy business, not the electricity business.
National Science Foundation’s stealth climate campaign
NSF engages in a stealth strategy of funding myriad alarmist activities, most of which are directly aimed at indoctrinating teachers and students.
Environmentalists sue to give river human rights
“This action … comes as courts around the world are beginning to hold that nature and ecosystems possess legally enforceable rights,” CELDF’s International Center for the Rights of Nature Director Mari Margil said in a press release from Sept. 21.
A breakthrough in videos teaching sound climate science
The thrust of each video is that the climate models are wrong and we need to understand why. WATCH NOW
SolarCity to pay nearly $30 million fine for allegedly lying to gov’t agents
SolarCity, a subdivision of electric vehicle maker Tesla, agreed to pay $29.5 million to resolve allegations the company submitted inflated claims to cash in on a solar stimulus program.
Now it’s a war on pipelines
CFACT Senior Policy Analyst Paul Driessen calls out those who are protesting the shipment of oil and gas via pipeline as hypocritically favoring railcar transport even though railcar spills are much more commonplace and more dangerous -- and costly. Driessen notes that these same people have protested fracking and for that matter all use of fossil fuels -- even though they continue to rely on fossil fuel products for their own lifestyles.
Harvey attribution games begin at NOAA
NOAA has posted some spectacularly speculative numbers claiming that Hurricane Harvey's record rainfall was so rare as to be unnatural. This is the attribution game; the new wave of alarmist pseudoscience.
Students learn U.S. hurricanes have decreased — WATCH NOW!
Watch students open their eyes when CFACT presents them with the facts on U.S. hurricane activity.
Hurricane illusions – and realities
CFACT Senior Policy Advisor Paul Driessen rebuts arguments from alarmists that recent hurricanes are evidences of the damages of global warming. Indeed, Driessen shows how the use of fossil fuels has dramatically reduced the cost in human life from hurricanes and other severe weather events.
Harvey defies attribution to global warming
All of this alarmist attribution stuff is junk science personified. We are seeing nothing that is outside of normal natural variability. As my father used to say, figures don't lie but liars sure can figure.
Cohn rebuts WSJ: Trump still out of Paris
“We are withdrawing, and we made that as clear as it can be. I don’t know how to say it any more clearly."
Climate alarmists exploiting hurricanes are misguided
CFACT policy advisor Larry Bell refutes the claims of alarmist activists that hurricanes Harvey and Irma were "enhanced" as a result of climate change -- and shows that the same alarmists had made the same statements in prior years regarding prior hurricanes -- and then there was a 12-year lull.
Finally, some common-sense Western fire policies
CFACT Senior Policy Advisor Paul Driessen reports on positive changes in forest management at two federal agencies -- Interior under Ron Zinke and Agriculture under Sonny Perdue. New policies will go a long way at reducing deaths of humans, animals, and plants from forest fires, and dramatically lower the costs of forest management while increasing the amount of forest land available for recreation and harvesting. As Driessen says, cleaning out dead, diseased, burned, overgrown trees would bring countless benefits -- and make our forests healthy again.
Climate.gov rivals NASA in climate alarmism
NOAA's Climate.gov website rivals NASA's, in more ways than one. There is actually a rivalry between the two agencies to see who can be the most alarmist.
Hurricanes are a natural
Hurricanes are “natural.” Our ability to see them coming and cope is “man-made.”
