Title: New Fad: “Family Estrangement Therapy”. Parents Be Warned.
Topic: Woke Progressives

Discussed by Devon Herrick
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

There is an emerging fad flooding social media called “family estrangement”, which includes therapists and sociology gurus offering YouTube counseling for young adults. In fact, one recent survey found that about one-quarter of Americans claim to be estranged from a family member.

Today, Devon Herrick, PhD, offers insight into this new disturbing trend and warns parents to be vigilant. Devon is a Policy Advisor with the Heartland Institute and a writer for Heartland Daily News.

Click here to read Devon’s article on this very important topic.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Why are more and more young people cutting ties with family members? Do young people really think they will be happier? Devon offers two very extreme reasons and neither are healthy for any person.

When did this trend begin?

Has the message that you can “divorce” your parents gained a tremendous following with young people on social media platforms like TikTok and YouTube?

What is the “Toxic Family Test”? NOTE: We will not post a link to this absurd test, but you can feel free to use DuckDuckGo and search for yourself.

Back in the 1980s, there was a psychology fad called “Recovered Memory Movement”, which has since been extinguished due to the crazy theories. However, is Family Estrangement Therapy very similar to RMM?

Title: Deciphering the True Jobs Numbers
Topic: Lying Politicians

Discussed by Chris Talgo
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

The US economy created 818,000 fewer jobs between April 2023 to March 2024 then previously reported. How can the Bureau of Labor Statistics be off by 30% for 12 months? Was someone using “invented math”?

Chris Talgo is the Editorial Director for the Heartland Institute and a research fellow for Heartland's Socialism Research Center. Today, Chris discusses the US Bureau of Labor and Statistics’ massive error in their latest employment numbers report.

Click here for more from Chris on this and other issues.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What types of jobs were created between April 2023 to March 2024? Chris Talgo explains that most “new” jobs were part-time jobs people were forced to get due to inflation and the tanking economy. In addition, seniors who are retired are now working part-time just to make ends meet because their Social Security checks aren’t cutting it anymore.

Is the rapidly rising number of immigrant workers as compared to the lower birth rate of US-born citizens a major concern for the future of our nation? How many “new” jobs went to illegal immigrants?

Why is the Democrat Party ignoring the warning signs? Chris believes it all boils down to Dems wanting “cheap labor” and buying votes.

The pathetic jobs report is not the only troubling economic signal to emerge in recent months. There have been reports of a number of corporate bankruptcies, as well. How many of those bankruptcies are small businesses, which employee millions of people?

Do US consumers have the same disposable income as compared to a few years ago?

Does government spending fuel inflation? Chris discusses recent laws (since 2021) that have increased the national debt by a massive amount, causing the government to print more money, resulting in the increase in inflation.

Over the past three-and-a-half years, have the American people been gaslit by the government and the MSM concerning the true state of the US economy?

Title: What’s UP with Trump and Green Energy
Topic: Climate Change Bologna

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Part 1 of 2

Nick Stockton recently wrote in the magazine Wired, “No matter what Trump does, green energy will prevail.”  He states the United States will lose out in the global economy if it does not continue to push green energy to the detriment of fossil fuels.

Guest Dr. Sterling Burnett writes for Climate Change Weekly for The Heartland Institute. Today he will be discussing the above-mentioned article and the future of the EPA under the Trump Administration.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Is Nick Stockton correct in his assertion?

Has Germany seen the folly of rushing to green as its energy source?

Dr. Burnett says this of so-called green energy: “The real green for green energy is the green in your pocketbook when it’s stealing your money.”

When wind and solar energy are not producing electricity, what must consumers, businesses, and industries use for power?

The United States is the second largest export economy in the world. During a recent year, the top exports of the United States were refined petroleum, cars, planes, helicopters, and/or spacecraft, vehicle parts, and packaged medicines. Are these industries heavily dependent on energy in their production?

Title: America’s Failed Energy Policies and the Reason Why
Topic: Obama's War on Fossil Fuels

Discussed by Dr. James Rust
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Obama’s ideas on energy reform are “based upon curtailing use of fossil fuels, in particular coal, due to fears carbon dioxide produced from combustion cause catastrophic global warming,” writes Dr. James Rust, with the Heartland Institute. He is a retired nuclear engineering professor with over 50 years of experience in areas related to energy policy.

Listen in as Dr. Rust discusses the President’s energy policies and why he and others are just flat wrong.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What is Obama’s energy policy based upon?

Is there evidence that fossil fuels cause catastrophic global warning? Dr. Rust calls is “garbage in and garbage out.”

Did the Progressive, Democrat controlled Presidency cause the collapse of the oil prices worldwide? Or, did the focus of the oil industry drilling more wells in the US cause the collapse of the oil prices worldwide?

President Obama has stated that we need to exploit “every available source of American energy – oil, gas, wind, solar, nuclear, biofuels, and more.” Is this really double-speak and was Obama disingenuous?

Is there much research showing that it requires more energy to make Ethanol than is contained in the product? Dr. Rust warns that “bad things are in our future” if we allow the government to increase the amount of Ethanol in gasoline. Listen in as he explains.

Do electric cars really help reduce the use of fossil fuels?

Should new nuclear plants be part of the equation for reducing our dependency on fossil fuels?

Is the administration “riding the wrong horse” with regards to its energy policy?

Title: Hil-Rump on Climate Change
Topic: Presidential Politics

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Donald Trump’s views on climate change and energy production differ radically from those held by Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.

Dr. Sterling Burnett wants everyone to understand that Hillary and Bernie want to “double-down” on Obama’s current policies, making things even worse for the American economy. Donald Trump, however, is on record saying he will reverse Obama’s regulations. He goes on to explain how wind, solar, and coal all receive federal subsidies; however, the fossil fuel industry receives a much lower amount than the others.

Hydraulic fracking is another hot topic within the oil and gas debate. Dr. Burnett gives a brief explanation of fracking and how the three top Presidential candidates differ on this issue as well. Bernie Sanders desires to end fracking completely, Hillary wants to add more stringent regulations, and Trump wants to increase its productivity. “Fracking is safe,” Dr. Burnett says. “It has helped decreased the leakage of methane emissions and oil and gas spills over the last decade.”

Trump has made some pretty outrageous statements regarding man-caused climate change (which Dr. Burnett discloses in this interview). However, Trump does recognize that man is not causing catastrophic climate change like the left continually squawks. Bernie says it is the “greatest challenge facing our generation”, while Hillary believes it is a “defining moment and policy”.

Dr. Burnett would like to point out that he is NOT making an endorsement for President in regards to the information provided in this interview. He is simply revealing the facts that all three candidates have expressed on record. Conduct do your own research and decide who the best qualified candidate is based on your criteria.

Title: Climate Deniers Covered by the First Amendment
Topic: Jail Climate Change Deniers

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

On March 29, 2016, charges were filed against ExxonMobil in New York City for racketeering. Using the RICO statute, sixteen state Attorney Generals announced their intention to go after organizations that were “committing fraud” by “knowingly deceiving” the public about the threat of manmade climate change. (We interviewed Sam Kazman on April 13 about their attack on the Competitive Enterprise Institute, which you can find in our archives.)

The statute which these AG’s are using is Section 241 of US Code Title 18. It makes it a felony “for two or more persons to agree together to injure, threaten or intimidate” another person in exercising their constitutional rights.

Today, we have expert Dr. Sterling Burnett, with the Heartland Institute, to discuss more about this dangerous and very serious issue. He boldly claims that WE (the climate change deniers) should be suing THEM under this law! “This is a violation of our civil rights under the law,” he states.

Dr. Burnett goes on to say that ExxonMobil simply needs to request that the climate change alarmists show their model predictions for the current year’s temperature, hurricane strength, droughts, and polar ice cap measures. The numbers don’t match! “They’ve got the case to make,” he declares. “They’re the ones that are claiming science has spoken, but that is a lie.”

Listen in as Dr. Burnett and host Terry Lowry have a lively discussion about the Supreme Court, the First Amendment, weather throughout the ages, and what the future may look like if the left wins.

Title: Scientists Disagree
Topic: Global Warming

Discussed by Joseph Bast
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Part 1 of 3

Do you like air conditioning in the summer? Do you like heat in your car during the winter? Do you like living in a nice, comfortable house or apartment? Do you like a nice, tall, cold glass of sweet tea? How about indoor plumbing? I’m sure you’re a fan of that aspect of first world living!

Well, if the environmentalist and global warming alarmists have their way in America like they have in Europe, especially in Germany, all those comforts would go away permanently! Yes, that’s right! Those crazy people want us to go back to the stone ages and live in Zulu Huts! The Germans aren’t quite in the Zulu Huts yet, but that day is looming.

Joseph Bast is the President of the Heartland Institute. He is here today for three segments to shed light on the facts versus the myths concerning this serious topic. First, he rebukes NASA for displaying on their website that “97% of scientists agree about the dangers of global warming”.  Listen in as Mr. Bast reveals the four people who NASA uses as references for this information. It’s astounding!

Furthermore, most scientists do not agree on the causes and consequences on global warming. “Most scientists believe that the climate is enormously complex,” Joseph Bast says. “This might be one of the most difficult scientific questions that the community has ever faced.” He goes on to explain why it is impossible to predict the weather in the future.

One of the biggest lies about global warming is “only a small percentage of scientists don’t think that global warming is a crisis”. Read that again. This is FALSE! Joseph actually believes that “there is a small fringe in the scientific community that believes that man is responsible for climate change and that we are in for a crisis.” Read that again. This is important information to know and understand. “Most scientists believe that it is too complicated for them to do any forecasts,” Mr. Blast continues.

Title: Part 2 of 3 - Scientists Disagree
Topic: Global Warming

Discussed by Joseph Bast
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

What is causing “catastrophic climate change” – or is there such a thing? Guest Joseph Blast helped edit and publish a short book about the topic that every parent, college student, and high school age student should read: “Why Scientists Disagree about Global Warming.”


At the end of the first segment, Mr. Bast revealed the facts about scientists who believe or don’t believe in man-caused global warming. He explains why there is such disagreement on the issue in the beginning of this segment. First, climate is chaotic and nearly impossible to predict. He also says it is an “interdisciplinary problem”. Geologists weigh in on the debate with their thoughts on the earth’s mineral formations. Physicists think they know best about carbon dioxide. Biologists believe plants and nature are the answer! “None of these [groups] see the full picture. Each accuses the other of not understanding how climate works,” Joseph Blast declares. They don’t trust each other, so how can we?!

Mr. Bast also compares the scientific method to the political science method of global warming. This will definitely bring up memories of high school science projects and debate club. “Unfortunately in the global warming debate, we’ve given up on the scientific method and we’ve moved into the political method,” he says sadly.

Listen in as Joseph Bast passionately explains how only using data which supports your hypothesis is never going to get you the answer you need, only the answer you want.

Topic: Global Warming

Discussed by Joseph Bast
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

There are several policies which could have devastating effects on each and every American. First, Joseph Bast explains how the environmentalists have convinced some in Washington to propose a carbon tax on utilities. This, in turn, will make wind and solar energy look more appealing, although it will cripple low-income families who cannot afford the more expensive options. And, finally, they want to ban everything which is not “their preferred method” of energy.

“Because energy is so closely related to prosperity and well-being, it literally is a campaign against a lifestyle…we’ve developed over the years that we take for granted,” Joseph Bast believes. Everything from the cereal we eat every morning to the steak that’s for dinner, from the gas that is in our cars to take us to work and school to the air condition in your home – everything is controlled by fossil fuels. And this is good for the environment!

“We have a virtually unlimited supply of coal and natural gas in the United States. We can be energy self-sufficient and enjoy affordable energy. The only thing standing between us and that future is global warming alarmism,” Joseph Bast declares.

Listen in as Joseph continues to shed light on some misunderstood myths and facts about global warming.

Title: Climate Change Education
Topic: Climate Change

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Climate change hysteria is all over the news. Celebrities tweet about. The President stated that climate change is the single greatest threat to the United States and the World. But, what are our children an  grandchildren being taught in public school about climate change? That is the focus of today’s interview with Dr. Sterling Burnett with the Heartland Institute. He says, “There is no doubt…that climate change is occurring. It has historically always occurred. Climate is not stable.” He has been involved in this debate for two decades. We love to have our experts on!

Dr. Burnett discusses a nation survey, conducted by the National Center for Science Education, of 1,500 middle and high school teachers, representing all 50 states, concerning this topic. “I had lost hope. I thought that kids were being brain-washed,” Dr. Burnett admits. However, the results astounded him – in both good and bad ways! He reveals the results, so listen in.

Back in 2014, Texas lost a battle to keep this issue balanced in new textbooks. Several other states opted to follow suit, using the same textbooks to teach climate change propaganda in public schools. Dr. Burnett explains how Virginia, however, stood up to the climate alarmists and demanded balanced textbooks. Bravo for them!

Note: Many school districts have opted to not use the new textbooks in order to save money. But, when they do need new books, the climate change bologna will be in print for all kids to see. We must stop this and demand Texas teach kids both sides of the issue!

Since this is an election season, anything can happen. There are many parents, teachers, and even elected officials who are having second thoughts about Common Core teaching methods. Dr. Burnett is confident that we can turn the tide around. “We have the opportunity to ensure that sound climate science is in the standards. It’s still open for debate,” he says.

Title: Obamacare is Failing – Miserably
Topic: Obamacare

Discussed by Michael Hamilton
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Obamacare is failing – miserably. Since the Affordable Care Act (ACA) became law in 2010, millions of Americans have been forced to obtain a new – often inferior – health insurance plan. Health insurance premiums have risen dramatically, especially for young adults, and many health insurance companies operating in the Obamacare exchanges have lost millions of dollars. The nation’s largest health insurer, UnitedHealth Group, recently announced it is expecting losses totaling more than $500 million on its 2016 Obamacare plans.

New guest, Michael Hamilton, is the managing editor of Heath Care News  with the Heartland Institute. Michael says there are two categories of people who are feeling the real brunt of Obamacare: The average taxpaying citizen and small business owners. Michael discusses a recent survey conducted by Level Funded Health. Of the more than 2,500 small business questioned, over 85% had an increase of over 25% in their premium rates! The statistics just get worse from there. Listen in!

Now, it is one thing to have an insurance card and health coverage. But what good does it do if you can’t use it? If your doctor doesn’t accept your insurance, you have to find one who does! Many doctors are even opting out of accepting insurance all-together, especially Medicaid of Medicare. Michael Hamilton says, “The government can do three things well: protect life and liberty and property. But what we’ve seen with Obamacare…it’s done the opposite with all three of those things.” People are less free to do what they want with their money in regards to healthcare.

There is hope on the horizon, however. Michael believes it is imperative for everyone to get as many people to vote this March 1 and November 8. “Americans must continue to call out the truth about policies that are being enacted,” he warns.

Title: The Proof is in the Pudding
Topic: Climate Change Bologna

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

The proof is in the pudding! The cost of courting public opinion is increasing, especially when it comes to climate change bologna. With the pause in global temperature rise continuing well into its 18th year, polar bear populations and Arctic and Antarctic ice levels on the increase, and hurricane land strikes at historic lows, the list of “horribles” climate alarmists can trot out to scare the public is dwindling. However, the number of alarmists (especially Hollywood celebrities) in increasing!

Dr. Sterling Burnett, with the Heartland Institute, is here to give an update on the new ways these environmental wackos are reaching out to the low-information voter. “The funny thing is, when they run out of ‘horribles’, they reverse course and say the opposite of what they’ve said before,” he says. When the Next Ice Age didn’t happen, they claimed we are going to scorch to death.

Since the polar bears and icebergs aren’t diminishing as expected, the alarmists newest bell-ringer is “acidification of the ocean”. Of course, it’s all man’s fault. Listen in as Dr. Burnett explains that, while oceans are more acidic, it is due to sea life – not humans! Even the New York Times is exaggerating the truth. Actually, that’s not too surprising…

Government-funded studies which conclude that man is causing global warming are simply out of control. In addition, university professors and scientists are just going along with the government’s assertion of climate change. Why? Money.

Title: The Real Threat: Terrorism or Climate Change?
Topic: Climate Change Bologna

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Part 1 of 2

President Obama has repeatedly stated that climate change is the most dangerous threat to the security, tranquility, and progress of the United States and the world. For instance, in his commencement address to the Coast Guard Academy in May 2015, Obama said, “No challenge poses a greater threat to our future and future generations than a change in climate.”

Dr. Sterling Burnett points out how even Obama’s defense department has jumped on the bandwagon claiming climate change is bad news. The defense department!! Shouldn’t they be more focused on “containing” ISIS? I suppose that is beside the point, though…

In regards to terrorism and climate change, Dr. Burnett says this: “It is not climate change that is killing people around the globe. It is not climate change that is kidnapping young girls around the globe. It is not climate change that is bombing people in Paris cafes or shooting people in theatres or killing people in marathons. It is not climate change that is destroying buildings.”

Discussed by Sterling Burnett

Dr. Burnett is the managing editor for Environment and Climate News with the Heartland Institute. He is an expert on matters of climate change, and I trust him when he says, “I see a lot of people saying things, but what they say is not backed up by evidence.” That is all we want: evidence. The problem is, there is no evidence – or the evidence we do have points to the opposite!

Take polar bears for example. By all calculations from the global warming alarmists, polar bears should be extinct, or nearly extinct, by now. When records began, only around 5,000 polar bears existed. Now, there are over 25,000. Dr. Burnett also discusses crop growth, Arctic ice, and weather patterns, such as hurricanes and droughts. The numbers the left are spewing just don’t add up to the facts.

To better serve American citizens, Dr. Burnett believes the billions of dollars we waste on false models for climate changes could be better spent on feeding the homeless and fighting terrorism around the world – maybe even combating illegal immigration! Amen, Dr. Burnett. Amen.

Title: Breaking: Solar Plant Emitting Carbon Pollutants!
Topic: Alternative Energy Lies

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Even as the Obama administration announces another $120 million in grants to boost solar energy, new reports indicate a centerpiece of the administration's green-energy effort is actually a carbon polluter. Located in Southern California's Mojave Desert, the $2.2 billion Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System benefited from a $1.6 billion Energy Department loan guarantee, and a $539 million Treasury Department stimulus grant to help pay off the loan. It has now been discovered that the plant is producing carbon emissions at nearly twice the amount that was expected.

Dr. Sterling Burnett is the Managing Editor for Environment and Climate News with the Heartland Institute. Listen in as Dr. Burnett explains how this particular solar panel plant operates, which is different than other solar plants that have been built. There is one aspect that is the same: they kill birds! Yes, birds! The heat from the sunlight on the solar panels is so intense, it literally causes birds to burst into flames! A bird conservationist group claims that tens of thousands of birds have been killed by solar panels.

Where is the outcry from the environmentalists or PETA? Nowhere. After all, solar powered plants are better than coal! (insert sarcasm.) Under the current administration, there is really no hope of changing the EPA’s harsh and unrealistic regulations on energy sources. Dr. Burnett discusses the increase of businesses being forced to leave California due to their unmanageably high energy rates. They simply cannot afford to stay there.

Dr. Burnett makes a bold statement: “I would like to see every coal-fired power plant in this country shut itself down for three days and see how the nation likes it.”

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Coal is dirty. Coal causes too much global warming. Coal needs to be eliminated from the earth. NOT! Contrary to what you have heard from CNN and despite what your kids have been taught in public school, coal keeps us moving! Coal is important and will continue to be. Obama has done his best to eliminate coal use in the US. He’s been somewhat successful, but not as much as he would hope to be.

Dr. Sterling Burnett says that coal use is actually up around the world! Some people say this is not a good thing, especially in China where the greenhouse gasses are so high. India and Australia are two other countries that have increased their use of coal. Germany is yet another example – and this is a must for the Germans because their electricity rates are triple what ours are in the US! Can you imagine paying nearly $1,500 a month to cool your home in the summer? That does not sound appealing.

Renewable power plants like solar and wind are outrageously expensive, but states are now required to obtain at least part of their electricity from them. Dr. Burnett explains how Congress has allowed the EPA to run rampant, shutting down coal plants right and left.

Is America losing allies to China because of Obama’s climate obsession? Billions of people in Asia, South America, and Africa still need access to cheap, reliable energy sources, but Obama, the UN, and those on the left block advancement of any kind.

It’s simply just not fair for America to be telling third world countries what they can and cannot use for energy source. It’s not moral. Dr. Sterling Burnett explains how Obama is telling the World Bank not to fund fossil fuel plants, particularly coal fired plants. Other countries are not happy with this because they know the truth about fossil fuels. Listen in as Dr. Burnett reveals what many countries are now telling Obama and the World Bank!

The liberal elites are turning America into the most hated country in the world. Dr. Burnett says, “Obama is economically illiterate and probably politically illiterate. He knows how to gain power, but he doesn’t know how to keep a country powerful.” Dr. Burnett explains why he believes Obama is doing everything he can possibly do to restrict growth of any kind.

Topic: Climate Change Bologna

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Part 1 of 2

The climate change alarmists are taking a specific statement, “There is a 97% consensus that humans are contributing to climate change” and using it for their benefit every chance they can. Sterling Burnett says there are two things wrong with his statement. First, it is “false and misleading”.

Dr. Burnett also says, “It’s General Science 101.” If you’re hypothesis is proven to be right in test after test, then great. However, the models and tests used by the climate change scientists are not proven right; in fact, they rarely give the same answers!

“There is a bare majority of scientists who agree that humans have contributed to climate change,” Dr. Burnett continues. But these are just “opinions”, not fact. Listen in as he explains in more detail.

When scientists are asked, in an opinion poll, if humans are causing climate change, over 50% say “yes”. But this is just an opinion poll – not scientific fact. So when the MSM blasts climate “deniers”, it’s merely an “opinion”, but they never present it in that light. It’s always – always – fact. This is the problem.

Dr. Sterling Burnett says, “Obama is willing to impose his beliefs on the American people contrary to American law.” The liberals want to dictate how everyone lives in the future. They think they know best because Obama is “the smartest guy in the room”.

Finally, should government policy focus on making the American worker the most productive worker in the world while factoring in the worker and the environment? Dr. Burnett says, “Absolutely not!” Why does he believe this? Listen in!

Many Progressives shy away at every opportunity to openly and honestly debate climate change. Dr. Sterling Burnett doesn’t think it’s that they “fear” debate; they simply don’t acknowledge that there is even a debate. “The scientists who won’t debate climate change, they have reached the point that there is nothing to discuss,” Dr. Burnett says. “It’s like talking to someone who still thinks the world is flat.” There is no changing their minds. Period.

Our kids, from Kindergarten through college, are being told that man is causing catastrophic climate change. TV shows and movies are pushing the notion at every opportunity. Dr. Burnett explains how even the Texas State Board of Education tried to stop the liberals from pushing man-caused catastrophic climate change, but they were unsuccessful in their fight!

As for the EPA’s newest attempt to force individual states to close coal fired power plants, Dr. Burnett says, “This is a religion for them. You can’t educate them. You can’t reeducate them.” Does the new leadership in Texas have the guts to stand up to the EPA? Listen in as Dr. Burnett gives his opinion!

Discussed by Sterling Burnett

The hypocritical environmentalists just won’t quit. This time they’re going after college professors. Dr. Sterling Burnett is the current Managing Editor for the Environment and Climate News with the Heartland Institute.  He is here today to discuss a Congressman’s recent letter to seven university presidents demanding information concerning funding sources for certain researches at their university. The letter was an attempt to bully professors who dare to question Obama and his administration’s stance regarding man-caused global warming.

Dr. Burnett says Representative Raul Grijalva, a Democrat from Arizona, didn’t simply ask to view the records; he demanded them “as if he controls them and they have to obey his every wish”. Listen in as he details the information Grijalva demanded in his letter. How will this affect future studies? Will professors and scientists be wary of contradicting a US President or the environmental left concerning man-caused global warming?

Also revealed in this interview: Representative Raul Grijalva (the letter writer) received nearly $80,000 from environmental groups for his campaign. This is just the amount that has been discovered so far. Does this mean he is in bed with them? Dr. Burnett won’t go so far as to say that. However, he does point out, “Once you start casting stones, everyone’s glass house gets broken.”

What Representative Grijalva is doing to these professors is nothing short of bullying on the playground. The difference is that he is messing with people’s lives – their livelihood – their careers. There is no excuse for this type of behavior. Period.

Discussed by Sterling Burnett

The lower gas prices are great – right? But why is the price down so low? Dr. Sterling Burnett explains that, first, China is not demanding as much oil as they have in the past and, second, you can thank a fracker!

OPEC is still trying to take control of the oil and gas prices, wanting every oil producing country to reduce their oil output. But Saudi Arabia is not having any part of cutting back. Not this time. Listen in as Dr. Burnett explains why they won’t budge!

Back in October of 2014, Bloomberg predicted that the lower gas prices would free up as much as $60 Billion in 2015. The Wall Street Journal argues $75 Billion, saving each American family roughly $1,500 this year is gas prices alone.

However, Congress is attempting to take advantage of these lower gas prices by placing a higher carbon fuel tax on energy producing companies, which, in turn, will mean more money once again at the pump. Listen in as Dr. Burnett says that even if the US stopped using fossil fuels completely, there would be no effect on the global temperature. So, basically, the left’s argument of higher temperatures and more pollution is a bunch a bologna.

Environmentalists should be scared; very, very scared. In his new book, The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels, Alex Epstein makes one of the most compelling arguments for the moral value of fossil fuels and the need to increase their use Dr. Sterling Burnett has ever read.

Epstein is an ethical humanist; for him, the well-being of human life is the standard of value public policy should maximize. This ethical theory goes back to the ancient Greeks and went virtually unchallenged as a basis for judging right and wrong throughout human history, at least until recently.

Dr. Sterling Burnett explains why he finds Alex Epstein’s arguments so compelling and why environmentalists are running scared. Dr. Burnett also discusses the “biocentric philosophy” that views human changes to the environment as morally wrong and unnatural.

When examining the use of fossil fuels, such as natural gas and coal, environmentalists never seem to point out the positive attributes; they only focus on the negative (which they exaggerate drastically). Dr. Sterling Burnett points out that you must look at the cost benefits of fossil fuels when arguing the case.

The weather “experts” cannot even predict what the weather will be like this January. So, why are they “certain” about the earth’s climate 100, 200, 500 years from now?

Today, Dr. Sterling Burnett, with the Heartland Institute, discusses how a group of German scientists have finally come to their senses concerning climate change and the use of fossil fuels. Years ago, when the German authorities passed laws against the use of fossil fuels, they thought it would help their economy, but the exact opposite has been true! The Germans are now facing an energy crisis. Factories are leaving the country. Families cannot afford the outrageous energy costs to heat their homes.

While not all the Germans have jumped on board, those who have are spreading their message loud and clear. They recently released a study covering 10 different topics, such as temperature, extreme events, and polar bears, which refuted every climate model the alarmists have produced.

 If the Germans can do it, why can’t we? Listen in as Dr. Burnett explains how the UN takes study material from the “experts” and doesn’t even read it all! They take bits and pieces of the reports which say “could be” or “might be” and change it to “predicted to be”. For example, in regards to the increase in temperatures, they take the most alarming numbers and report those as “fact” when, in reality, it “could be” an increase from 0.3 degrees to 4.6 degrees!

The UN needs to stop playing god and get back to helping the people of this world, giving them a real chance of survival using fossil fuels. Log on to www.Heartland.org  for more on this and other issues.

For over 2 decades, Dr. Willie Soon has been an astronomer at the Mount Wilson Observatory. He has researched and written extensively on issues related to the sun, other stars, the Earth, astronomy, and physics. Dr. Soon has one awards for his achievements on biogeological and climate change. He is a leading authority on the relationship between the sun and global climate change.

Today, Dr. Willie Soon discusses the sun’s effect versus man’s effect on the Earth’s temperature. For thousands of years, the pattern of the sun has directly affected the Earth’s rising or falling temperatures. He says that the UN and others, like Al Gore, are blind to the fact that CO2 levels do not cause any change to the Earth’s climate – he has proof! They have no proof. Their models can’t prove it. Their fancy computers can’t prove it. Their high-paid, so-called “experts” can’t prove it.

In 2009, Dr. Willie Soon had the opportunity to personally confront Al Gore on his outrageous claims concerning global warming. Of course, Gore refused to answer Dr. Soon’s questions. Gore knows he is wrong; he just wants more money to line his pockets, fuel his private jet, and heat and cool his many multi-million dollar homes.

Al Gore and the UN are now demanding we spend of billions and billions of dollars to scale back man’s use of fossil fuels in an attempt to slow down global warming. Listen in as Dr. Soon discusses this incredible waste of our money and the consequences of the continuation of such childish behavior.

So much money is being wasted on scare tactics when the real threats are being ignored. Russia has been sending airplanes to the Alaskan border. ISIS is killing thousands of people in the Middle East. Illegal immigrants from all over the world are flooding our borders. And don’t even get me started on North Korea or China.

Yet Chuck Hagel, the Secretary of Defense, goes to Peru to discuss global warming. He and other alarmists are trying to find a plan for the military to use to prepare for weather changes 100 years from now. They can’t even make up their minds about the hear-and-now! How can they predict 100 years from now? Hagel says if the temperature changes even a few degrees, our military will be helpless. Gee, thanks, SOD, for telling the world that the American military is a bunch of morons.

Our Earth has changed course so many times it’s hard to keep track of it all. Listen in as Sterling Burnett, the new managing editor of Heartland Institute, explains more about the military’s presence in Africa, global warming, and how Chuck Hagel is making America look like sissies.

Title: Seventy-three Climate Models All Wrong
Topic: Climate Change

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Part 1 of 2

For the last 33 years, 73 climate models have all predicted there would be much more warming than there has actually been. They all have been wrong, but the scientists who crunch out these numbers using ‘their’ biases are the ones attacking their academic collogues who disagree with them.

Where is the ‘academic freedom’? Who are the true bullies?

Congress should stop funding studies proposed by scientists who have been proven wrong by actual temperature readings. Taxpayers are being ripped off.

Title: Part 2 of 2
Topic: Climate Change

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Should the American Taxpayer regret the billions of dollars our government has wasted on reducing man’s contribution to global warming when the world is NOT warming?

L.I.V.’s need to wake up and re-think where they are getting their information. L.I.V.’s are - Low Information Voters.

Academic Freedom is NOT alive and well on university campuses across America. American Values, conservative thought, and too often the truth is sacrificed on the altar of Political Correctness promulgated and pushed by the progressive left. More times than not it is funded by the American Taxpayer.

Title: Myths About Gun Control
Topic: Gun Control

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Part 1 of 5

Does eating ice cream and hamburgers every day “make” someone overweight? Does the car “make” a drunk driver kill innocent people? Does a gun “make” a person a murderer?

Most people would answer “that’s just silly” to the first two questions, yet are firm believers in the third.

Fewer than one percent of all guns are involved in a crime and only twelve percent of all violent crimes involve a gun.

Even in Canada, Taiwan, and Jamaica, the murder rate sharply increased after strict gun laws were passed, so “gun control” is not just an American problem.

Title: Part 2 of 5
Topic: Gun Control

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

One of the biggest arguments on the table about gun control is that guns are of little help in defending oneself against criminals. Women have been told to vomit or urinate on an attacker. Men have been told to use their fists. Well, if an attacker has a gun and you don’t, then a little puke or pee or fist pumping sure isn’t going to deter them in any way, shape, or form.

Each year, potential victims kill between 2,000 and 3,000 criminals and wound many more.

Furthermore, private citizens only mistakenly kill approximately 30 people per year, while 330 are killed by police.

Title: Part 3 of 5
Topic: Gun Control

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

So many people are under the mistaken belief that the only reason criminals buy, steal, or trade guns is to use the weapon in a crime. Fewer than half of all criminals think that handguns are important to use during a crime.

Criminals have guns to protect themselves against other criminals. Their main objective isn’t to kill the store clerk in a robbery. They just want the money. They use the gun to scare people.

Title: Part 4 of 5
Topic: Gun Control

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

On average, there is only one police officer to protect every 3,300 citizens.

In any given year, twenty-five percent of people will be affected by a serious crime. Those odds are not very reassuring.

So, when you hear someone argue that average people don’t need a gun for self-protection, tell them those facts.

Maybe they’ll believe you; maybe they won’t. But you’ve probably got them thinking…

Title: New EPA Air Quality Regulations are All PAIN and NO GAIN
Topic: Environmental Issues

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

The saying in football is: “No Pain – No Gain”! Dr. Burnett points out how the new EPA Air Quality Regulations are all PAIN and NO gain.

Why should we have to pay on average an 11% increase in our home electric bills? Why should area businesses have to pay on average a 35% increase in electricity prices?

Suggested ways for businesses to pay for their increase electric bills:
1. Pass costs onto consumers with higher prices
2. Hold wages flat or even reduce wages
3. Layoff an employee or employees
4. If a business cannot due one of the above, or a combination, then simply close down

Title: The US Exports Jobs and Industries and Imports the products causing more total greenhouse gases
Topic: Global Warming

Discussed by Sterling Burnett
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)

Rapid economic growth in developing nations has offset the emissions cuts in industrialized economies, like the US. Ironically, industries that have recently moved overseas merely export the same goods back to developed nations, such that global greenhouse gas emissions are unaffected or actually increase. Some environmentalists are demanding that the US of A shut down more factories because we are importing too many goods.
