The sun, the sink and the climate debate: A challenge to carbon-centric policy
Astrophysicist Dr. Willie Soon argues the sun, not CO2, is the dominant driver of Earth’s climate, citing solar activity correlations. Soon criticizes the focus on CO2 as politically motivated, describing an “Iron Triangle” of politics, science and media that marginalizes dissent. New research reveals plants absorb 31% more CO2 than previously thought, highlighting a critical […]

Research finds extinction rates have slowed
A new study finds extinction rates for plants, arthropods and land vertebrates peaked about a century ago and have since declined. The research challenges projections of an accelerating mass extinction, arguing past causes like invasive species on islands differ from current threats. Habitat destruction on continents is now the primary driver of species endangerment, not […]

The clean water dividend: Organic farming cuts pollution while boosting yields
A new USDA study finds organic corn-soybean systems reduce nitrogen pollution by 50% while matching or exceeding conventional yields. Nitrogen runoff from chemical-intensive agriculture contaminates drinking water, especially burdening small rural communities with high cleanup costs. Organic farming practices build soil health, increase biodiversity and enhance resilience to climate extremes like drought. Decades of research […]

Race against China: U.S. bets on fast-track nuclear power, but critics warn of “rubber stamp” safety
President Trump’s executive orders have launched new DOE programs to fast-track advanced nuclear reactor development and fuel supply chains. The initiatives aim to have three new reactors operational by July 2026, bypassing traditional regulatory hurdles for projects on federal land. The administration frames the push as critical for national security, energy independence and powering AI […]

The forecast that fizzled: A hurricane season of quiet contradiction
The 2025 Atlantic hurricane season concluded with below-average activity, featuring only five hurricanes and no U.S. landfalls. Reliable historical data since the 1880s shows no long-term trend of increasing hurricane frequency or intensity. A significant mid-season lull in September marked the quietest peak period in 86 years. Despite the calm, leading forecast agencies had predicted […]

The prescription problem: Drug giants challenge state over “forever chemical” disclosure
A major pharmaceutical industry coalition is asking the U.S. Department of Justice to override a Minnesota law requiring disclosure of PFAS “forever chemicals” in products, including some medications. Hundreds of widely prescribed drugs, including statins and antidepressants, contain organic fluorine, a key component of PFAS, which are linked to serious health risks. Minnesota’s law represents […]

Unlock your child’s potential: The surprising cognitive boost of getting dirty
A new national poll reveals a stark reality: One in ten American children now plays outside as infrequently as once a week. This indoor migration coincides with a broad decline in children’s health, including rising rates of obesity, chronic conditions and emotional symptoms. Outdoor play is scientifically linked to improved physical health, stronger immune systems, […]

A silent crisis: Chemical pollution linked to plummeting male fertility and rising cancers
A new report links chemical pollution, including pesticides, to a severe decline in male reproductive health, marked by crashing sperm counts and rising cancer rates. Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) like phthalates, PFAS and glyphosate are identified as primary culprits, causing hormonal and epigenetic damage. Parental exposure to these chemicals can impair the reproductive health of male […]

A toxic divide: EPA ignores international cancer warning about dangerous herbicide
The World Health Organization‘s cancer research agency has classified the herbicide atrazine as “probably carcinogenic to humans.” Despite this international warning, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is proceeding with plans to reapprove the pesticide’s use. Atrazine, a known hormone disruptor, contaminates the drinking water of approximately 40 million Americans. The chemical is also linked to […]

Apocalyptic warnings mask a prosperous reality at COP30
UN climate chief Simon Stiell used famine warnings to open the COP30 conference, claims disputed by long-term data. Historical data shows natural famines have been nearly eliminated, with modern hunger primarily caused by conflict and political ideology. Scientific bodies like the IPCC find little evidence of worsening trends for droughts, cyclones and other extreme weather […]
