South American Cold Underscores Role of Oil and Gas

In July, a bone-chilling cold wave swept across South America, plunging nations like Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay into an energy crisis that laid bare the fragility of their power systems.

Choosing the Positive Reality of Hydrocarbons Over ‘Green’ Fantasies

British multinational BP has announced its largest oil and gas discovery in 25 years in Brazil’s Santos Basin. By 2030, daily production is expected to be 2.3 to 2.5 million barrels of oil equivalent, which leaves little doubt that the company is solidly committed to hydrocarbons after a brief flirtation with alternatives like wind and

Asian Forests Victims of Intolerable ‘Green’ Lie

In the modern climate debate, emotion and partisan allegiance replace critical thinking to smear carbon dioxide (CO2) as a dangerous pollutant. Well-crafted green advocacies steal the spotlight, while reason languishes in the shadows of medieval-style witch hunts.  The reality, however, is seen in places like the dense tropical forests of Indonesia’s many verdant islands. Among

Poland’s Pragmatic Energy Approach Pays Off

By refusing to play by the EU’s restrictive climate rules, Poland has begun to build one of Europe’s most energy-secure economies. While much of the bloc marches in lockstep towards a self-inflicted economic wound called “net zero,” Poland has chosen a different path – one of pragmatism, national interest and, most importantly, energy security. And

The Ongoing Fiction Of Cheap Wind & Solar Energy

Those claiming that wind and solar energy are cheaper than fossil fuels should be writing scripts for science fiction dramas.  Yet global organizations such as investment firm Lazard and the International Renewable Energy Agency expect this bogus claim to be taken seriously as a basis for investing many billions into essentially useless technologies to save

133 Years of Texas Hill Country Heavy Rainfall Data Show No Trends

The catastrophic flooding of July 4, 2025 in the Texas hill country has left at least 130 dead. Many news outlets (predictably) have invoked climate change as a contributing cause, for example CNN, NPR, ABC News, The Texas Tribune, et al. As others have documented, there were more than adequate flash flood watches and warnings from the National Weather Service,
