Preparing a 20th anniversary edition of my first book helped me realize that environmentalism and feminism both began as reasonable social movements. But then they turned intolerant and extremist.
Left-wing Climate Reexamination
UK Labour Party veteran says climate policies that hurt the poor must be abandoned.
Empty Bellies and Carbon Taxed Food
Carbon taxes at the gas pump are just the beginning. Oxford University researchers think we should pay carbon taxes on food.
How Peer Review is Used to Shut Down Debate
Some inhabitants of the Ivory Tower are using peer review – a process that helps scholarly journals decide what to print – as a shield to hide behind. Delegitimizing public input about publicly-funded science is arrogant and counterproductive.
Peer Review Is Bunk
A report I wrote for the Global Warming Policy Foundation was released today. It explains that peer-reviewed research is as likely to be wrong as right. Basing public policy on findings that haven’t yet been reproduced is nuts.
Canada’s Carbon Tax Drama
A tax that will take an extra $1,250 from the pockets of struggling Canadian families is applauded by corporations.

The Naked Climate Change Emperor
Strip away the pseudoscience and you’ll find one thing: politics. People attempting, via international treaties, to constrain human lives. For the sake of Mother Gaia.
21 Days Until Paris
Millions of children perish each year, but world leaders think a problem that’s unlikely to become worrisome for decades is the world’s most pressing concern.
