2008: The Year the “Consensus” Collapsed

Perhaps the debate isn’t over, but the tables have turned. Truth is an indomitable force. Suppressing it requires constant effort, because it can’t be changed. What is is.

Thirty Years of Warmer Temperatures Go Poof

By Lorne Gunter  In early September, I began noticing a string of news stories about scientists rejecting the orthodoxy on global warming.

Waiter, There's a Fly in my Agitprop

To the dismay of green-oriented psychologists, seeing and hearing a lone skeptic for as little as 45 seconds in a “balanced” news story on global warming is enough to erode viewers’ confidence in the anthropogenic global warming theory. The solution? No more dissenting views. They are far too powerful, evidently. Hence, the common phrases “global […]

Global Warming as Mass Neurosis

By Bret Stephens Last week marked the 20th anniversary of the mass hysteria phenomenon known as global warming. Much of the science has since been discredited.

LETTER: Local Scientist Skeptical of Global Warming

By Jon Hartzler Ph.D. and retired science professor, Hutchinson Global warming is a hot topic. The liberal politicians and news media stir our emotions and try to make us panic.
