Fox News’ Tucker Carlson recently went off on a Trump EPA change to the rules for the herbicide atrazine. Here’s why Carlson and others should dodge pitches and propaganda from green advocacy groups. My column at AmericanGreatness.com.

Al Gore raved about climate at Davos yesterday. “This is Thermopylae. This is Agincourt. This is Dunkirk. This is the Battle of the Bulge. This is 9/11,” he said.
The Climategate emails revealed that the 2C global warming temperature target was entirely arbitrary — “plucked out of thin air,” as Phil Jones put it. Today we can trace this arbitrariness back one step further — to a 1975 paper by economist William Nordhaus.

“But to embrace the possibilities of tomorrow, we must reject the perennial prophets of doom and their predictions of the Apocalypse… These alarmists always demand the same thing: absolute power to dominate, transform and control every aspect of our lives. We will never let radical socialists destroy our economy, wreck our country or eradicate our liberty. America will always be the proud, strong and unyielding bastion of freedom.”

My comments just delivered to the EPA Science Advisory Board about their draft review letters concerning the Trump EPA proposals for rolling back the Obama fuel economy standards, the science transparency rule, the Mercury Air Toxics Standards rule and the Waters of the United States rule (WOTUS).
My op-ed for InsideSources.com about our YUGE victory on PM2.5 at EPA.
The Times reports: “Temperatures only 1-2C higher than the long-term summer average can cause coral bleaching.” But the paper omitted mention of the key study result — that the 2019 ocean temperature was a mere 0.075C over the 1981-2010 average.
A new study reported yesterday that ocean temp in 2019 was a mere 0.075C over the 1981-2010 average. While the NYTimes was happy this morning to yell “2019 Was a Record Year for Ocean Temperatures, Data Show”, the paper omitted reporting the ‘data showed’ a mere (and unmeasurable) increase of 0.075C.
My guess is you won’t find this key tidbit in other media coverage either — even though it was in the media release.

“We have proven that the GCM-models used in IPCC report AR5 cannot compute correctly the natural component included in the observed global temperature. The reason is that the models fail to derive the influences of low cloud cover fraction on the global temperature. A too small natural component results in a too large portion for the contribution of the greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide.”
