National Center for Policy Analysis (NCPA)

Background

The now-defunct National Center for Policy Analysis (NCPA) was a 501(c)(3) non-profit think tank founded by John C. Goodman in 1983 to “promote private, free-market alternatives to government regulation and control, solving problems by relying on the strength of the competitive, entrepreneurial private sector.” It dissolved as of July, 2017, due to financial challenges. [1], [27]

According to NCPA‘s profile (PDF), their core belief is “that ideas have enormous power to change the course of human events. We seek to unleash the power of ideas for positive change by identifying, encouraging and aggressively marketing the best scholarly research.” [2]

The NCPA describes itself as a source of “’outside the Beltway’ thinking for Capitol Hill deliberations.” Headquartered in Dallas, the NCPA also maintains a Washington, D.C., office that sponsors Capitol Hill briefings, conferences, and testimony before congressional committees. [2]

The National Center for Policy Analysis is a member of the State Policy Network (SPN), a “web of right-wing ‘think tanks’ in every state across the country.” [3], [4]

Stance on Climate Change

2014

According to a 2014 publication by the NCPA, “Given the uncertainty in climate science, adaptation appears to be a more cost-effective approach than mitigation.” [5]

The National Center for Policy Analysis quotes climate change skeptic Matt Ridley, who originally wrote in The Spectator that “Climate change has done more good than harm so far and is likely to continue doing so for most of this century. This is not a right-wing fantasy; it is the consensus of expert opinion.” [6]

1991

The following is from the summary of a 1991 “task force report” by the Political Economy Research Center/National Center for Policy Analysis (see full report here): 

“Currently, scientists disagree on whether global warming has already occurred, whether significant global warming will occur in the future, whether warming would be harmful or somewhat beneficial to humans and whether, if harmful, it is better to adjust to the warming or try to prevent it. At least two of the world’s leading climate scientists — Arizona State physicist Sherwood Idso and Soviet climatologist Mikhail Budyko — argue that we should welcome a CO2 buildup with open arms. In general, those scientists who welcome global warming, or at least do not worry about it, take the longer view — considering the historical variations in the earth’s temperature and cycles in carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration).” [7]

Note: It is unclear why the authors consider Sherwood Idso, with a PhD in soil science (and the president of the climate skeptic group, Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change), one of the world’s “leading climate scientists.”

Funding

According to their website, the National Center for Policy Analysis received 61% of their funding from foundations, 22% from corporations, and 17% from individuals in 2014. [8]

The following is based on data compiled by the Conservative Transparency project and from publicly-available tax records. Note that not all individual values have been verified by DeSmog.

The National Center for Policy Analysis (NCPA) announced that its board of directors had voted to dissolve the organization immediately after several years of financial challenges. According to their website: [27]

“The National Center for Policy Analysis (NCPA), a 501c3 public policy research organization, announced this week that its Board of Directors has voted to dissolve the organization effective immediately. The thirty-four year old free market think tank has made significant contributions to free-market public policy research and implementation, including Health Savings Accounts, Roth IRAs, automatic enrollment in 401ks, and ongoing work in the areas of taxes, healthcare, entitlements, economic development, energy and national security.”

The group also announced their closing on social media:

Sadly, after 34 years of service, the NCPA is closing its doors. Thanks to all who have supported us and helped us fight for free-markets.

— NCPA (@NCPA) July 7, 2017

April 6, 2016

NCPA Senior Fellow John R. Graham was chosen by the Trump administration to lead  the Division of Planning and Evaluation at the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, according to a NCPA press release. [26]

August 27, 2014

The National Center for Policy Analysis released a “brief analysis” titled “Calming Fears of Climate Change in South and Southeast Asia” where they claim that, in the case of South and Southeast Asia, “climate change has had no discernible effect on these regions, and recent analyses indicate adaptation is the preferable strategy to deal with any effects that may occur in the future.” [5]

According to NCPA, “Given the uncertainty in climate science, adaptation appears to be a more cost-effective approach than mitigation.” [5]

The NCPA also suggests that “climate change has had beneficial effects on these economies so far and will continue to help over the long term.” A Google Scholar Search for the article’s author, Tanner Davis, does return any published work in peer-reviewed journals. According to his LinkedIn profile, Davis is currently working as a Marketing Intern at AT&T, and was a research associate at NCPA until June, 2014.  [18], [19]

2013

The National Center for Policy Analysis released the second edition of its “Global Warming Primer.” According to the NCPA‘s document, the primer’s purpose “is to explore some of the main scientific, economic and political issues surrounding the topic of global warming.” [20]

May 17, 2006

The National Center for Policy Analysis published a “Brief Analysis” titled “Polar Bears on Thin Ice, Not Really!” written by H. Sterling Burnett. [21]

The article points to a paper by fellow climate change skeptic David Legates who “examines the claim that global warming threatens to cause polar bear extinction and finds little basis for fear. By and large, the study finds that polar bear populations are in good shape.”

Burnett concludes that “There may be threats to the future survival of the polar bear, but global warming is not primary among them.” [21]

April 1991

The NCPA‘s “Environmental Task Force” published a report titled “Progressive Environmentalism: A Pro-Human, Pro-Science, Pro-Free Enterprise Agenda for Change.” [22]

The report refers to a group of “reactionary environmentalists” who “do not believe in human progress,” who “idealiz[e] the life of the American Indian or life in medieval communities.” According to the authors, this group is “united by a distaste for modern industrial society and what borders on worship of the peasant way of life.”

The NCPA report classifies this group as “Anti-Human,” “Anti-Technology,” “Anti-Science,” “Anti-Growth,” “Anti-Free Enterprise,” and as “The Disaster Lobby” by “thriv[ing]” on crisis.

The report includes a section on climate change, that implies global warming would be beneficial. Some representative quotes from the report follow:

“… evidence suggests that warmth is life-enhancing and life-sustaining, whereas cold is life-threatening…”

“… atmospheric CO2 levels have varied radically as life on earth has evolved. Moreover, just as warmth has always been unambiguously good for life, so has CO2…”

“Although CO2 levels in the atmosphere have fluctuated over time, a secular decline in CO2 has been going on throughout the 4.5 billion-year history of the Earth. If this trend continues…eventually our planet will become as lifeless as Mars.”
