Comparing the New CCC to the Original

Five Years Later, Evidence of Fracking’s Safety Is Stronger than Ever
Opinion -Since 2010, there have been more than two dozen peer-reviewed studies determining the fracking process is not a systemic threat to groundwater. -
Beware the Offshore Wind Oligarchy
Opinion -Of course it is possible the states will simply ditch the targets, or slip them harmlessly into the future, so they can repeatedly reject the high bids. This might even wipe out offshore wind, which is what it deserves. Watching that happen, perhaps even helping it along, could be great fun. -
Green Hydrogen Needs Vast Subsidies

Video: Hottest Summer Ever? NOT! – Climate Change Roundtable #84

Decisions Based on Science, or Spirits?
Opinion -Like most people, I am fascinated by Native American history and traditions. There is much to admire about those people, several of whom are among my own ancestors. But we should not confuse that admiration with science. Most Native Americans today certainly would not do so. -
A Skeptical Look at Laudate Deum
Opinion -The moral questions that are addressed by Pope Francis do merit consideration. Pollution and litter are real issues, along with unnecessary deforestation, overfishing, and poaching. Poverty is likewise something Christians are called to be concerned about. Fortunately, both of those issues can be aided by helping impoverished nations unlock their energy industries and invest in development. People are more concerned with conservation when they are not so worried about putting food on the table. -
New Documentary Challenges ‘Climate Crisis’ with Facts, Sound Science, and Commonsense
Opinion -For far too long, the climate alarmists have held great sway over the dissemination of information that counters their narrative, including assistance from Big Tech in their quest to suppress any and all counterarguments. For anyone seeking an even-handed, fact-based approach to one of the most significant issues of our time, “A Climate Conversation” is a must-see. -
Christopher Columbus and Hurricanes in the Atlantic
Opinion -Records like the ones kept by Columbus and his fellow voyagers are now indispensable for meteorologists who depend on them to piece together part of the picture of weather history. Sailors kept great records, which is how they knew to plot their courses and the timing of their departure from safe harbor so that they avoided being in hurricane hot zones during the peak of the season. -
The Climate Change-Industrial Complex Is an Existential Threat
Opinion -Before it is too late, those of us who will pay the ultimate price, both in a degraded standard of living and a less free and open society, must push back against the climate change-industrial complex.

The ‘Green Pope’ Is Dead Wrong, Again, on Climate Change
Opinion -Put simply, Pope Francis is completely wrong regarding all things concerning climate change. However, I can’t help but wonder if he is being used as a pawn by those who benefit from touting the climate change lie, seeing as how he is the leader of one of the most influential religious institutions the world over. Maybe climate change and religion, which are both based on belief, have more in common than we thought. -
