Skepticism sheds new light on wildfire attribution: LA blaze, Chile’s tragedy and the truth behind politicized science
A study by World Weather Attribution (WWA) initially blamed climate change for increasing wildfire likelihood in Los Angeles by 35%. Dr. Sabine Hossenfelder debunked the claim, revealing the findings lacked statistical significance and fell within natural variability. Climate activism and media narratives often prioritize fearmongering over objective analysis. WWA’s methods, dubbed “weather attribution alchemy,” rely […]

EPA reconsiders Obama’s CO2 “Endangerment Finding” — could unleash American energy freedom
The EPA, under Administrator Lee Zeldin, is reconsidering the controversial ruling that classified CO? as a “dangerous pollutant,” which has been the basis for sweeping climate regulations. Repealing it could roll back costly mandates and restore U.S. energy independence. Critics argue the EPA relied on outdated models, ignored dissenting scientific opinions and bypassed proper peer […]

Tackling the rubber waste crisis: Groundbreaking study reveals eco-friendly method to recycle tires
Millions of discarded tires end up in landfills annually, leaching harmful chemicals and posing fire risks, with traditional recycling methods like pyrolysis producing toxic byproducts. Researchers at UNC developed a novel technique using C-H amination and polymer rearrangement to break down rubber waste into soluble, amine-functionalized materials for epoxy resin production. The process operates under […]

EPA banned chemical linked to cancer, Parkinson’s and fatal heart defects in babies — now industry is lobbying to get it reinstated
The EPA banned trichloroethylene (TCE) in December 2024 due to its carcinogenic and neurodegenerative effects, but industry groups and some lawmakers are pushing to repeal the ban, risking public health. TCE exposure is linked to cancers (liver, kidney, non-Hodgkin lymphoma), Parkinson’s disease, and life-threatening heart defects in infants, with documented cases in contaminated areas like […]

Paper or plastic? The environmental deception behind bag bans
Studies show paper bags require more energy, water and materials to produce than plastic, and they emit greenhouse gases when decomposing in landfills. Cotton totes must be reused over 100 times to offset their carbon footprint, and many end up unused, negating their environmental benefits. Policies often lead to increased use of thicker plastic trash […]

Unleashing energy, empowering growth: EPA’s historic deregulatory push aims to revive economy while balancing environmental stewardship
The EPA, under Administrator Lee Zeldin, announced a major rollback of environmental regulations affecting power sectors, vehicle emissions, and energy production. This move aims to stimulate economic growth, lower costs for families, and restore state autonomy while maintaining environmental protections. Key regulations targeted for reconsideration or elimination include the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS), […]

Irony in the Amazon: Climate elites bulldoze rainforest for “green” conference
Tens of thousands of acres of the Amazon rainforest are being cleared to build a four-lane highway, Avenida Liberdade, connecting Belém, Brazil, to the COP30 Climate Summit venue. The project, previously shelved due to environmental concerns, has been revived to accommodate 50,000 attendees. The highway cuts through 13 kilometers of protected rainforest, destroying critical ecosystems […]

Forever chemicals in your medicine cabinet: How common drugs are poisoning the water supply
New research reveals that common medications like Prozac, Flonase, Januvia and Celebrex are a significant source of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), or “forever chemicals,” entering water supplies through human excretion and inadequate wastewater treatment. Wastewater treatment plants fail to remove PFAS from fluorinated pharmaceuticals, contaminating drinking water supplies for approximately 23 million Americans, with […]

Alaska’s Mount Spurr on the brink: Scientists warn of imminent eruption near Anchorage
Mount Spurr, located 80 miles northwest of Anchorage, is showing signs of potential eruption due to elevated volcanic gas emissions, reactivated gas vents and seismic activity, indicating magma intrusion beneath the volcano. The volcano last erupted in 1992, producing massive ash clouds that disrupted air travel and affected communities as far as Greenland. Its 1953 […]
