Wanless, professor in the Department of Geography and Sustainable Development at the University of Miami.Taylor covers topics such as global temperatures, sea level rise, crop production, hurricanes, and tornadoes, citing data from peer-reviewed sources in the process.

The other day H. Sterling Burnett, director of The Heartland Institute's Arthur B. Robinson Center for Climate and Environmental Policy was a guest on The John Steigerwald Show on AM1250 The Answer in Pittsburgh. Sterling is a frequent guest on that excellent program, and was asked on to talk about Pennsylvania's plan to lean on solar and wind for future energy. As you might expect, Sterling explained how and why this is a bad idea, especially for resource-rich Pennsylvania.

The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 447 of the In The Tank Podcast. Over the past week, student-led protest groups have essentially taken over college campuses across the United States, demonstrating on behalf of the pro-Palestine movement. The radical rhetoric, the disruption of classes, and the crack down by police has stirred up a lot of attention on this matter, but many important aspects are being ignored. Who is funding this movement? What are the true intentions of the protests? And how are these factors effected by the upcoming Presidential election?

Heartland’s Tim Benson is once again joined by friend of the podcast H.W. Brands, the Jack S. Blanton Sr. Chair in History at the University of Texas at Austin, to discuss his new book, Founding Partisans: Hamilton, Madison, Jefferson, Adams and the Brawling Birth of American Politics. They chat about how, while the Framers viewed political parties a fatal threat to republican virtues, parties emerged even before the ink on the Constitution was dry. They then discuss all things Federalist vs. Antifederalist/Republican, how contentious the political battles between them were, but yet how, despite all this, peaceful transfers of power continued.

The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Linnea Lueken present episode 446 of the In The Tank Podcast. In honor of Earth Day (Week? Month?), we are taking a look at the State of the Climate Alarmism agenda. How is climate change currently resonating with the general public? How successful are its advocates in getting climate action done? And what does the future look like for the climate alarmist movement?
