Al Gore has made a living out of scaring the wits out of people. As the most well-known anthropogenic global warming advocate, the former Vice President preaches that the use of fossil fuels will eliminate entire species—perhaps even humans. In his book, An Inconvenient Truth, he writes,
“Global warming, along with the cutting and burning of forests and other critical habitats, is causing the loss of living species at a level comparable to the extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. That event was believed to have been caused by a giant asteroid. This time it is...

This story, by Brian Sussman, originally appeared in Forbes.
Imagine owning a portfolio valued at an unfathomable fortune, and yet you’re bankrupt. Government laws are preventing you from tapping your assets.
There’s no need to envision such a scenario, because as an American, it’s a reality—you’ve been hustled by a federal government beholden to the green agenda.
The feds now own nearly 700 million acres of property; land brimming with natural resources vital to our founding principles of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The tragedy is our government is purposefully keeping the...

During an address this past weekend at Hampshire College, Al Gore took a swipe at “some talk radio hosts” who don’t believe in human-caused global warming. Well, seeing that I:
am the only talk radio guy in the country with a Certification from the American Meteorological Society (I was a former, award-winning TV meteorologist)
am the author of a bestseller, Climategate, in which I pen a damning exposé of Mr. Gore’s life and career
have just released Eco-Tyranny, where I further expose Gore’s un-American missives
utilize the URL DebateMeAlGore.com…
I’m guessing Al might well...

The EPA is a a government-funded Gestapo operation beholden to destroying property rights, hammering capitalism, and destroying free enterprise. Now, thanks to Senator James Inhofe, we have an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) official named Al Armendariz–on video– providing confirmation.
Sen. Inhofe wrote the cover endorsement to my book, Eco-Tyranny. He has a been a tireless warrior in the battle to save this nation from the radical intentions of the green agenda, and has now presented us with an EPA official, named Al Amendariz, conjuring up his inner Stalin to blast the oil...

This is a must-read story, from World Net Daily, regarding my interview with a young girl who has been totally green-washed by her school. It
A 12-year-old girl has responded with the stunning “I wish we didn’t exist” to questions about how she feels about pollution and humanity’s impact on the earth, according to a new video released by Brian Sussman, author of “Eco-Tyranny: How the Left’s Green Agenda will Dismantle America.”
The response came from a 6th-grade girl identified only as Kalie, from Gault Elementary. Sussman met her during Earth Day events in Santa Cruz, Calif.,...

This article, by Brian Sussman, originally appeared at American Thinker
Many are quite concerned about Senate Bill 1813, a massive piece of legislation supposedly devoted to transportation issues. Besides including a provision allowing the IRS the power to revoke passports belonging to those who are delinquent with tax debt in excess of $50,000, it appears that the potential law may be used to measure the size of your carbon footprint each time you get behind the wheel. It’s all because of a vague provision slipped into bill, which has already passed the U.S. Senate, and is likely to be rubber...

Yesterday I took a video crew to the Earth Day Festival in Santa Cruz, California. I chose this location because this city is known for being a model of greenness, and even maintains Department of Climate Change, complete with a director making $250,000 per year.
The question I posed in my man-on-the street-interviews was, “What is the greatest threat confronting mankind?”
In almost every interview, I was told the greatest threat was the human species.
Most troubling was an interview with a 12-year old girl who said she had been taught in school that global warming was real, that there were too...

This article, by Brian Sussman, was also published at American Thinker:
A recent story at American Thinker revealed that an acclaimed environmental studies professor contends those who do not believe humans are causing global warming are mentally ill and need to be “treated.”
Keri Norgaard teaches at the University of Oregon and is the author of Living in Denial: Climate Change, Emotions and Everyday Life. In her book she compares global warming skepticism to racism, arguing that there is a “cultural resistance” that keeps some people from acknowledging that humans are responsible for...

After 25 years of battling environmentalists, Star Wars filmmaker George Lucas has retreated from plans to construct a beautiful mission-style movie-making mansion on thousands of acres of land he owns in Marin County, California, twenty miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge.
The people of Marin are proud of their liberalism and adherence to the green agenda. The community is extremely upscale and home to many rock stars and Hollywood-types. One would think the inhabitants of this hippie and yuppie paradise would be thrilled to have George Lucas’ business located...

While the “mainstream” media is quick to spew out that the “majority of scientists believe in anthropogenic climate change,” (even though that percentage was garnered from a mysterious poll of only 77 people), it’s interesting to note how they have not covered this story: a number of significant NASA scientists, including seven astronauts, have publically stated in a letter to NASA’s administrator, that they are not fans of the man-caused global warming theory, and they would like NASA to quit wasting government money hyping the scam.
NASA is an agency that has...

Solyndra flushed a half-billion taxpayer dollars down the drain, and now there’s another government-funded solar firm that has tanked.
Solar Trust of America was the proud recipient of a $2.1 billion low-interest loan from the Department of Energy. The money was to be spent on the expansion of the company’s 1000 MegaWatt Blythe Solar Power Project in Riverside, California.
According to Solar Trust: “This project construction is expected to create over 1,000 direct jobs in Southern California, 7,500 indirect jobs in related industries throughout the United States, and more than 200...

Michael Mann is the creator of Al Gore’s famous hockey stick graph. You know, the temperature graph charting the past couple thousand years, making it appear is if the past few decades are about to take off like a rocket ship? I wrote about it in Climategate, and briefly touch on it in my new book Eco-Tyranny. As a bonus, I’ve included a portion of my chapter from Climategate farther below on this post.
Anyway, Mann’s hockey stick has been busted dozens of times by excellent researchers; his phony graph was at the heart of the Climategate email scandal at East Anglia University in...
