Eco-Imperialism the Book
In Touch
By Paul Driessen
Rooting out scientific corruption
Recent actions show reform is in the wind, but much remains to be done, especially on climate Paul Driessen Dr. Brian Wansink recently resigned from his position as Columbia University professor, eating behavior researcher and director of the Cornell “food lab.” A faculty investigation found that he had misreported research data, failed to preserve data and results properly, […]
Bloom Energy’s “tangled web”
What a tangled web Bloom weaves, since first it practiced to deceive Paul Driessen and Clint Laird Bloom Energy executives, investment bankers, venture capitalists, politicians, regulators and others involved in advancing Bloom’s business, reputation and financial dealings are living the complicated life that flows from lying. Lies typically start small. Often, they’re small deceptions. But deceptions can metastasize into a […]
Keep carbon taxes in the ground
Permanently bury these job-killing proposals, after pounding wooded stakes through their hearts Paul Driessen The House of Representatives recently passed a sense of Congress resolution that a carbon tax would kill jobs, damage the revitalized U.S. economy, and disproportionately impact poor, minority and working-class families. The vote also reflects the fact that America is still over 80% dependent […]
Endangerment Finding delenda est
Replacing Clean Power Plan with less harmful ACE rule does not fix fraudulent CO2 science Paul Driessen As the Punic Wars dragged on, Cato the Elder reportedly concluded every speech to the Roman Senate by proclaiming “Carthago delenda est” – “Carthage must be destroyed.” Ample evidence suggests that the Obama era Environmental Protection Agency’s “Endangerment […]
A double ban gets a double reversal
Interior Department reverses activist-initiated Obama-era ban on farming activities in refuges Paul Driessen I don’t pull my punches over destructive, inhumane or just plain lunatic policies demanded by extreme environmentalists. I criticize them, as well as friends and “good guys,” when I think they got it wrong on energy or environmental issues. I also offer praise […]
Obama carbon colonialism and climate corruption continue
USAID still pushes climate alarmism over energy, jobs, health and prosperity for poor countries Paul Driessen and David Wojick Part 1 of a 3-part series It’s obscene enough when the Multilateral anti-Development Banks do it. But Trump agencies?!? In a prime example of Deep State revanchism, despite the profound change in administrations, the US Agency for International […]
Finally! Some fuel economy common sense
But Greens go apoplectic over rule change that would have no climate or other benefits Paul Driessen Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFÉ) standards were devised back in 1975, amid anxiety over the OPEC oil embargo and supposedly imminent depletion of the world’s oil supplies. But recall, barely 15 years after Edwin Drake drilled the first successful […]
Environmentalist scare stories – Never mind!
Solid evidence shows there is no “bee-pocalypse,” but alarmists allege new pesticide threats Paul Driessen “Baby boomers” will remember Gilder Radner’s Saturday Night Live character from the ‘70s – Emily Litella, who would launch into hilarious rants against perceived problems, only to discover that she had completely misconstrued what she was fuming about. “What’s all […]
Luddite eco-imperialists claim to be virtuous
Uber-organic campaign enshrines primitive agriculture and malnutrition as human rights Paul Driessen and David Wojick Not every poor person in impoverished places around the world aspires to the modern living standards they see and hear about: indoor plumbing, electricity for lights, a refrigerator and stove, a paucity of disease-carrying insects, top-notch schools and hospitals, their children living […]
Multilateral anti-Development Banks
USA finances prolonged poverty, misery, disease, and death through international banks Paul Driessen and David Wojick “Foreign Operations” appropriation bills now working their way through Congress supposedly provide funding to “advance U.S. diplomatic priorities overseas,” “increase global security,” and continue “life-saving global health and humanitarian assistance programs for the world’s most vulnerable populations.” The bills […]
