The Vicious Agenda of the Climate Change Cabal

Commentary Last month’s United Nations climate conference in Egypt was a dreary affair. Dubbed “COP27”—the 27th of these increasingly tiresome extravaganzas—the 2022 gathering was the same old same old with a few new wrinkles. There was the customary ideological fanaticism—the insistence that we radically retool our societies on the basis of computer models that don’t…


No, America Does Not Owe the World Climate ‘Reparations’

Commentary I’ve made the case in previous columns that the climate change movement is mostly a climate change hustle. Let’s be real. None of this is about changing the temperature of the Earth.

A Little Learning on Methane and Climate Change

Cory Morgan: What Does Guilbeault’s Uncharacteristic Position at COP27 Signal?

Commentary The 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27) came and went with less fanfare than these gatherings usually have. The annual gabfest provides the opportunity for activists, politicians, and celebrities to fly private jets across the world to gather in luxury hotels and chide people for their consumption of petrochemical products. Usually, many nations…


FBI ‘Extremely Concerned’ by China-Owned TikTok

The FBI chief gives the bureau’s first-ever warning about TikTok and explains why he’s “extremely concerned” about the popular social media app. Are investors phasing out of China? Warren Buffett is selling Chinese electric carmaker stock and buying up shares in a Taiwanese microchip producer. Another American investor is detailing why he stopped investing in…


US, Canada, Australia and UK Accused of Falling Short on UN Climate Funding

The U.S., Canada, Australia and the UK have been accused of failing to meet their United Nations pledge for climate change funding.
