After two decades, solar and wind power are producing less than 10% of our power needs and will likely never provide more than 25%. In a special report, KUSI'S John Coleman shows us a possible energy source that might save the day and it's a power source that is as old as the planet itself.

In a series of special reports, John Coleman introduced us to the 'bloom box,' a solid state electric generator, and he looked at hydrogen as a future energy source. Now KUSI's John Coleman is taking his search for power to outer space.

From cell phones to TVs, computers, lights, heat and air conditioning, we all depend on a steady flow of electric power. One of the biggest questions we face is, where are we going to find the energy and power to keep moving ahead? John Coleman has more with this special report.

The push is on to move our highly industrialized civilization from fossil fuels to new green energies, but there are two big questions. How long will switching take? And what will the new 21st century power system be like? KUSI's John Coleman looks at those questions in this special report.

Technology is progressing so rapidly these days that the future is today. Our phones are smarter than last year's PC's and cars can parallel park on their own. In a special report, John Coleman has the story of another breakthrough on the horizon: Graphene.

With all the negative environmental stories in the media these days, you might not expect this. Satellites are detecting more green on planet Earth than ever before. According to a new report, forests and crop lands are all greener, but is that a good thing? KUSI's John Coleman has a special report:

Is global warming going to destroy the climate of earth and make the planet uninhabitable? A new study on long term increases to global temperatures is re-kindling the climate change debate. KUSI's John Coleman reports on this new data from his skeptical point of view:

John Coleman's interviews guest experts about Global Warming

In preparation for the program "Global Warming: The Other Side" I conducted several satellite interviews with scientists in other cities. TV time constraints and that old thing about TV Producers feeling the need to keep the pace of the program moving rapidly along, meant that what you saw on TV in each case is only a snippet of the complete interview. That is where the Internet comes in very handy. Here on my web page, we have posted the complete interview with each of these scientists for those who have a larger appetite for the global warming debunking information.

Complete interview with Joe D'Aleo , Certified Consulting Meteorologist and Fellow of the American Meteorological Society

D'Aleo was in the Boston studio of WCVB television. I was in our KUSI TV studio here in San Diego. There was limited time to do the interview (They charge by the minute for the across county fiber optic feed.) so I had to keep the interview rolling. We were interrupted by a technical switch at one point. I have cut that out. Otherwise, as the clock ran down, I raced to get everything I could from Joe.

Complete interview with S. Fred Singer, Ph.D.

S. Fred Singer, Ph.D., is an Atmospheric Physicist, Emeritus from the University of Virginia. In the 1960s Singer was a leading figure in the early development of earth observation satellites, becoming a Special Advisor on space developments to President Eisenhower and establishing the National Weather Bureau's Satellite Service Center as well as becoming its first Director. Now he works tirelessly to debunk the bad science about man-made global warming. He is an amazing man. It was my honor to meet him at several conferences we attended and to interview him for "Global Warming: The Other Side." Here is that complete interview.

Complete interview with Meteorologist Anthony Watts

Anthony Watts, a hero of mine, is as interesting a person as you will meet in a lifetime. It was my pleasure to have him come to our KUSI News studio for an interview for the "Global Warming: Meltdown" program. Not only did I interview him, but most importantly, he presented his entire Surfacestations.org Powerpoint presentation as an answer to my second question.

Anthony Watts is an American broadcast weather presenter (AMS sealholder retired), editor of the blog "Watts Up With That?", owner of the weather graphics company Intelliweather, and founder of the SurfaceStations.org project that documents the problems with weather observation stations across the United States. He also is a meteorologist for a radio station in Northern California.

Complete interview with E. Michael Smith

The special "Global Warming: The Other Side" featured several interviews with experts and scientists, none more important to me than the one with E. Michael Smith, who had used his great computer programming skill to unravel the complications of the U.S. Government's national and world temperature database to expose some highly questionable manipulations that have taken place. The TV program had extreme time limitations and only a couple of small segments of this interview were included. That is where the Internet provides a great outlet and educational plus. Here I am able to present the entire interview. You will learn a lot when you watch it. I have never done a worse job of interviewing someone as I did with E. Michael Smith, while no one I have interviewed has ever done a better job of presenting their material and themselves than Mr. Smith. Never mind my interviewer issues, if you can. I have to reject any self protection and let you see it "as is," because this interview is too important. The work E. Michael Smith has done and what it reveals is information our policy makers must have. It goes a long way towards totally derailing the global warming campaign. Will the networks ever put this man on the air? Will congress ever take testimony from him? I hope playing this entire interview helps.

A Report on the Fakegate Controversy

In February (of 2012) there was a significant incident in the global warming controversy when a noted scientist apparently used subterfuge to obtain documents from an important national think tank and also through some means came up with a seemingly related fake document and then distributed those documents to a host of friendly websites. As investigators were about to uncover who he is, he admitted what he had done on a friendly website. Charges and countercharges and investigations followed. Here is my television news report on this issue from late February. As best I know this is the only television report anywhere on this matter.

THORIUM will power the world!

The energy debate between global warming alarmist who think CO2 from fossil fuels is a pollutant, and we global warming skeptics is leading to a deadlock on worthwhile new energy development. Thorium may be the answer that both sides can accept. Here is a John Coleman’s report on thorium.

From time to time I write blogs about global warming. Here are a few of the most recent, followed by others I particularly want to share...

Quote: "I just think they don't understand the climate, their computer models are full of fudge factors." This is what the great Physicist Freeman Dyson had to say about the Climatologists who promote man-made global warming as a crisis. He is one of my heroes. My friend Anthony Watts reproduced excerpts from an article about Dyson by Paul Mulshine in the New Jersey Star-Ledger. Here is that post from the Watts Up With That website:

Despite recent hot temperatures and media "headline play" linking these hot temps to global warming, skeptical scientists have produced studies that show that the last 15 years have seen a cooling in the United States...

A strong new voice has surfaced to debunk the carbon dioxide caused runaway global warming theory and I want to share it with you. This report comes from Larry Bell, a professor at the University of Houston who also is a regular contributor to Forbes.com. He reports on his conversation with the famous aviation and space designer, Burt Rutan. Here are some of the quotes...

I have just presented a skeptical report on the new California Cap and Trade law on the KUSI News. It can be found on the KUSI.com webpage. In connection, I also did a 25-minute interview with the man leading the California citizens’ protest movement against Cap and Trade, Warren Duffy. I urge you to take the time to watch that interview, which can be found at the top of this page. The blog below is companion piece to the above-mentioned story and interview.

Sometimes I get so frustrated and a bit depressed about the battle to correct the bad science that has lead to predictions of an extreme global warming catastrophe... Dr. Larry Bell, in his new article in Forbes online, gives me new hope.
