A healthy skepticism of claims by Sovietists that only expansive government can save the earth

In the academic battle over whether manmade CO2 is causing catastrophic climate change (and over whether people must immediately surrender all rights to governments so that socialism can save the world from fossil fuels), one side has been caught time and time again faking data. “Skeptics” have been demonized, attacked, assaulted, sued, fired, blacklisted and …

It appears that NBC News visited Glacier National Park’s Grinnell Glacier earlier this year.

The “Huffington Post” is a pro-government extremist online “newspaper” that delivers a steady stream of news reports from the government’s perspective.

One of the recurring claims of pro-government voices is that apocalyptic-manmade-global-warming-by-CO2 is causing sea levels to rise due to melting ice in the Arctic and Antarctic. Government trusters use this claim to demand ever more government power, taxation, and central planning by elitists. But the precise opposite is true. NASA data confirm that global sea …

Foremost among the “stars” of the government’s manmade-global-warming movement is Michael Mann, a professor at Penn State. Mann and his research agenda have received millions of dollars in federal government research grant money. Mann’s (always secret from the public) global-warming data and calculations have provided the backbone for the UN’s claims that increasing CO2 levels …

The “Tesla” auto company and its CEO Elan Musk have received more than $500 million dollars of government subsidies to produce electric cars that are supposedly better for the environment than conventional gasoline cars. Believers in the government’s apocalyptic-global-warming-by-man-made-carbon-dioxide theory generally support Tesla cars because they supposedly have a smaller “carbon footprint.” But a new …
