“The political effort to limit economic growth by reducing the use of fossil fuels and changing the face of agriculture—will have a far greater long-term effect than the recent pandemic on people’s lives in the United States and worldwide.” ~ Peter J. Wallison
READ MORE“Europe is scouring the world for more fossil fuels because the continent needs them for its growth and prosperity. That same opportunity should not be withheld from the world’s poorest.” ~ Bjorn Lomborg
READ MORE“For FTX and ESG, beneath a surface of virtue signaling and noblesse oblige are decidedly less-idealistic machinations: fraud, rent-seeking, influence-buying, and greenwash.” ~ Peter C. Earle
READ MORE“Global warming fanatics can’t see that the very human progress they disdain (and that they couldn’t live happily without) is what sets the stage for even better care of the planet they claim to want to save.” ~ John Tamny
READ MORE“Following the habits of good science is a good idea, but following the dictates of people who call themselves scientists is not the same thing. Climate change might be real, but there are good reasons to reject calls for draconian policies that fail cost-benefit tests.” ~ David Barker
READ MORE“A greater available supply of American natural gas and oil to European nations would reduce their dependence on Russian supplies. Americans would also enjoy lower oil and gas prices, more plentiful natural gas, a more robust and secure energy environment, and a more stable economy.” ~ Jon Sanders
READ MORE“To update Simon’s analysis, they ‘calculate the hours and minutes needed to earn the money to buy goods and services’ and discover that over time, people have been getting progressively more for the sweat of their brows.” ~ Art Carden
READ MORE“’What do you mean, public parks?’ is a worthwhile question. People ought to question whether governments’ substantial holdings are being managed for the best interest of the public they are charged with serving.” ~ James M. Hohman
READ MORE“This is free-market environmentalism at work, aligning incentives in such a way as to make conservation and wildlife tolerance a good business decision rather than a burden for local landowners.” ~ Dan Mahoney
READ MORE“Scientists can’t even measure the climate-efficacy of the program, yet everyone is agreeing to go along with it because it feels about right—especially, no doubt, within the departments that are getting bigger budgets and amongst the farmers they are paying to sustain a bucolic lifestyle.” ~ Paul Schwennesen
READ MORE“It seems likely that any standardized framework will be based on the UN’s postulates when all is said and done, and this will have all transpired in front of our eyes and by use of our own pocketbooks.” ~ Kimberlee Josephson
READ MORE“The administrative state’s cynical calculus has been upended. It can no longer count on courts to bless their claims of discovering hitherto unnoticed devastating powers tucked away in ‘gap filler’ statutory language.” ~ Jon Sanders
