Environmental


Last week I wrote about how dark green religion seeks to shut down humans by limiting access to energy. The elephant in the room is, in fact, the population question. The reason is, as environmentalists know too well, that poverty is a terrible recipe for a healthy environment. The examples I gave last week showed [...]

The ultimate resource is the free human being, and the master resource is energy. Control energy, and control human beings. Humans become slaves when energy is denied them, as the green movement is so effectively doing through the world. The irony is that destroying human liberty does not help the environment. Unfortunately, politicians are almost [...]

So sorry – We really don’t want to control every aspect of your life. We have no choice. It is just that to keep you safe, because you are so irresponsible and infantile in your thinking, and because the world is such a dangerous place, and because we are so clever (much more than you), [...]

  Misleading claims about shale gas development serve dogma but not the public interest by Paul Driessen The Sierra Club and other environmental pressure groups are redoubling their efforts to “stop fracking in its tracks.” No wonder. The technology is an existential threat to fundamental “green” dogmas. Horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing is a true [...]

China says (again): go jump – If we are going down (by suicide) please join us. Uh, no, say the Chinese. China just barred its airlines (they’re communist; they can do that) from joining an EU scheme that could charge for carbon emissions from flights in and out of Europe, escalating a global trade row [...]

White House, environmentalists and U.S foundations seek to block all oil sands development, by Duggan Flanakin and Redmond Weissenberger Oilfield workers in Alberta, refinery workers in Texas and countless factory workers just learned that the White House will not allow construction of an oil pipeline that would bring over half a million barrels of oil [...]

Perhaps most of [...]

Don’t want it?- Suicide is, for philosophically consistent greens, an acceptable option. Now that China is likely to become a major customer of Canadian energy (the US being too lily-white, or as it is, lily-green, to take Canadian oil), it is no surprise that the apparently suicidal US is losing out also on the massive [...]

Panda beauty – The woman of the year is a Panda. Think for a moment of the mindset that does this, and it might not be such a compliment. Next year a bacterium? The Great Green Fleet -One might assume, or at least hope, that the fallout over the $535 million Solyndra loan scandal would [...]
