Fossil fuel companies knew in 1979 that carbon dioxide emissions would cause the Earth to warm, creating undesirable consequences for the Earth. By 1981, the Exxon scientist concluded that the burning of fossil fuels could be catastrophic for some of the world’s population by 2030. The choice between huge profits and the possibility of harming… Read more

The countries of the world have reached a consensus that we need to reduce our carbon emissions. One proposal to do that is to switch to a hydrogen economy. The problem is that currently about 95% of the hydrogen we use is made using fossil fuels, which is an energy-intensive process that produces more CO2. The fossil… Read more

New Greenhouse gases play a huge role in keeping the surface of the Earth warm. Without the greenhouse effect, the temperature of the Earth would average about -18°C, and all the water on the Earth’s surface would be ice. The average temperature of the Earth’s surface is now about 15°C and rising. The graph below… Read more

This is an update of an earlier PowerPoint presentation which reviews the scientific evidence for climate change and recommends a carbon fee and dividend system to address global warming. It was presented to the Oasis Fellowship in Wichita, Kansas. Though you may miss some things without the verbal presentation, the slides are mostly self-explanatory. You will need… Read more

Congress is subsidizing fossil fuels seven times as much as wind energy, even though it is in our country’s best interest to shift to renewable energy as quickly as possible. We must reduce the subsidies for fossil fuels and institute a carbon fee and dividend system which will ensure that fossil fuels pay their true… Read more

This PowerPoint presentation presents the evidence for climate change and explains the urgency for taking action. It also explains the carbon fee and dividend as proposed by the Citizens Climate Lobby. The plan, with broad bipartisan support in US, would place a fee on carbon at the source and allow market forces to encourage reduced… Read more

James Taylor has published an opinion piece in Forbes about the Top 10 Global Warming Lies put forward by “climate alarmists” in response to the Environmental Defense Fund’s mailer, “10 Global Warming Effects That May Shock You,”. The EDF’s positions sound very much like the things you read in reputable news sources and peer-reviewed science… Read more
