It seems Ms. Pelosi has invested in some wind energy and is friends with T. Boone Pickens. Meanwhile, Americans are paying through the nose for transportation, food and goods thanks to the Democrats and their anti-nuclear and anti-fossil fuel push.

Al Gore’s best hope has turned into his worst nightmare. The economy, slowed by high oil prices and transportation costs, has turned people away from the green lifestyle in an effort to save money. Governments are quietly dropping green taxes and fees and those hit by the slow rate of economic growth are [...]

They’re starving back in China, so finish what you got, or so said John Lennon many years ago. Today, Lennon may have reworked those lyrics to tell us we’re causing global warming, so finish what you got. We’ll never know, but a study found that Americans waste [...]

I found this little carbon footprint calculator at some pro-global warming website and thought I’d plug in my numbers to see how I fare when compared to the rest of the world.  Even taking public transportation for the majority of the week and using substantially fewer miles on my vehicle than the national average, my [...]

When you eat off a plate, do you buy new plates to exchange your food-stained ones?  Do you buy new clothes every time you soil your laundry?  Of course not.  So why buy carbon credits for clean air when you put carbon dioxide into your existing air?  This opinion piece points out the basic element [...]

I’m proud of the British government right now.  Finally someone over there has awakened to the fact that biofuels cause food prices to skyrocket and massive shortages around the globe.  This is in direct conflict with the EU, who says rising food prices are due to increased demand for meat and dairy as well as [...]

100 million people have been pushed below the poverty line, thanks to rising food prices. A baby of Gore and his global warming myth, biofuels manufactured from food is causing deforestation and additional use of water and fertilizer to grow the crops necessary to make it [...]

Well, sort of.  Connecticut Governor Jodi Rell announced that she wants an amendment to the 10-state greenhouse reduction plan enacted in 2005.  She wants portions of the sale of carbon credits set aside to help tax payers during the current depressed economy to pay for the basics, like electricity and food.  But, she only wants [...]
