Climate Science Advisory Committee Papers

Unfortunately, energy policy has become heavily politicized over the last several decades due to concerns about how some forms of energy emit greenhouse gases. These papers examine such concerns claims from a variety of angles. The overwhelming evidence illustrates that although climate change is indeed occurring, much of the alarmist rhetoric regarding the issue is vastly overstated. More fundamentally, there is little to no basis for regulating carbon dioxide emissions especially when considered within the broader context of how affordable and reliable energy are fundamentally important for a well-functioning society.

Climate Science Advisory

The overwhelming evidence is clear. Although climate change is indeed occurring, the issue is not nearly as catastrophic as the mainstream media portrays. As a result, lawmakers have little to no basis for massively regulating energy—one of the most critical sectors of the American economy.
