The so-called Livable Communities Act is top-down central planning scheme designed to change where we live and work, and how we travel. Bureaucrats in the Environmental Protection Agency, Housing and Urban Development, and the Department of Transportation will oversee this Soviet-style social engineering.
It’s worrisome to witness the growing historical parallels between today’s Democratic Party and [...]

Oil Spill: Environmentalists Ultimately To Blame for Containment Difficulty

Oil spills will happen occasionally, so is it better to have it happen on land (or in shallow waters) or in very deep offshore locations?
As environmentalists keep hindering domestic oil extraction (and make us ever more dependent on foreign sources), energy companies have to drill farther and father out to satisfy the unreasonable demands of [...]

Environmental devotees of so-called climate change, or global warming, are now scrambling to issue some bit of truth after being exposed for their serial deceptions. Currently they are saying that 15 years of no warming does not constitute a trend. Fair enough.
However, if the science behind man-made warming is as rock-solid as they claim, then [...]

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was recently forced to retract its position on melting Himalayan glaciers due to lack of scientific evidence.
A team of scientist behind the bogus report, lead by Dr Murari Lal, claimed that Himalayan glaciers would essentially disappear by 2035. As reported by the UK’s MailOnline, the claim “rests on [...]

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has determined that a naturally occurring atmospheric gas that is necessary for life on this planet is now a dangerous pollutant.
A logical result of increased atmospheric CO2 would be a greening of the planet, combined with improved food production. It’s been estimated that even if atmospheric levels of CO2 were [...]

Obama once proudly proclaimed that science would return to its rightful place within his administration. But how can that be when his administration’s policies are in line with that of ’scientists’ who lie and manipulate data? The rightful place of science is not at some politicized extreme.
Patrick Michaels, a major climate skeptic, declared: “This is [...]

Turns out Al Gore is at it again with another proselytizing book on the “climate crisis.”  The cover of his latest piece apparently opens half and half, and when fully opened it shows a heavily doctored photo of the planet — hurricanes all over, virtually no polar ice cap, green areas changed to brownish, and [...]

Following a skeptical global warming report covered up by the EPA, comes another example of politics trumping science. An article from the UK’s Telegraph titled, “Polar bear expert barred by global warmists,” further reveals how environmentalism has become radicalized and unreliable.
Dr Mitchell Taylor has been researching the status and management of polar bears in Canada [...]
