I Completely Believe In Climate Change. As A Political Invention.

Hey, Kids: They're Lying to You About Climate Change and Using You As Props To Get What They Want!

But in fairness, they're lying to you about lots of other stuff, too.

Big Kayak protests Reliable Energy

“For a century, Edison's light bulb was regarded as a beacon of American genius; then it became a 'climate criminal." That transformation is American decline in a nutshell.”--Mark Steyn

“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it!”--Upton Sinclair

“Do you guys think of it as a climate thing? Because we really think of it as a how-do-you-change-the-entire-economy thing.”--Saikat "Karlymarx" Chakrabarti, AOC's brain (now, ex-brain)

“One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with the environmental policy anymore, with problems such as deforestation or the ozone hole. We redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy.”-- United Nations climate official Ottmar Edenhofer co-chair of the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change working group on Mitigation of Climate Change, 2008 to 2015

"I suspect that “human flourishing” to this fellow is not “progress,” at least as I understand it. I see progress in the scientific as well as cultural and political sense: better medicine, cooler media, faster information-distribution systems, more freedom, more prosperity, the spread of individual and property rights across the globe. I think he means “human flourishing” to mean everyone agrees to wear the same itchy hemp robe and chant the Happy Planet Song while we tote buckets of night soil to the communal plot."--James Lileks

There's no such thing as "sustainable" development. Human progress and individual liberty have advanced on the backs of one unsustainable development after another. Bet on human ingenuity every time. We're not animals, and it's a cult as deranged as the screwiest fringe religion to insist we are. Earth's most valuable resource is us."--Mark Steyn

Some of you who grew up with this propaganda in your Saturday morning cartoons may have never heard this said, so consider this a trigger warning.

When I was a kid(tm), we had a thing called "weather". Sometimes it was good, sometimes it was bad. Sometimes we had dust bowls and hurricanes, sometimes we had rainfall and bumper crops. But we didn't worship the weather.

Back then, the Left wanted things they couldn't have. They wanted higher taxes. They wanted to transfer America's wealth and sovereignty to unaccountable international bodies like the UN. They wanted to completely control industrial policy, yet still have political deniability when their policies created impoverishment and slow growth. They wanted to propagandize schoolchildren, arrogating unto themselves the automatic moral high ground and the right not to have their motives questioned while questioning everyone else's. They wanted to silence dissent. But they couldn't have these things--a free people would never consent to them.

And, miracle of miracles, "science" came along and "discovered" Climate Change, and poof! all their goals are realized! It's the damnedest coincidence in history!


What are the odds that science just happens to "discover" the magic keys that fortuitously unlock the Left's Political Wish List? It's just as unlikely as your Bar-B-Cue grill affecting sea levels a century from now. And even if their protocols were implemented, they admit that temperatures wouldn't change by more than a fraction. Of a fraction. Of a fraction. Of a fraction. A century from now. Maybe.

It's about control, not results. It's not "man-made"--it's Manufactured.

If I discovered a climate phenomenon that demanded limited government, lower taxes, America First and individual liberty, do you think the Left would accept it at face value? Of course not. Deniers!

They say "The Science is Settled! The Science is Settled!"

No, but the science funding is pretty well settled. And it goes to the Agree-ers. Turns out, you can create a fair amount of "consensus" by funding and recognizing the Received Wisdom Pre-Approved by the State. I'm not saying all those scientists are bought, but they are all human. And funded by other humans with a Vested Interest in the Correct Result. 

"But...but 97% of scientists agree!" No they don't.

That number was invented by "sampling". In other words, its just a guess by people who desperately wish that guess to be true for propaganda purposes.

Everyone wants a fat paycheck, to be recognized, to be told their work is important, even vital to the survival of the planet. And computer models of events a century away are so nebulous as to be fiction-ish. But all the incentives are as real as Buffy's orthodontist bill. That's why, for example, the Left doesn't accept the word of scientists working for oil companies, because of the financial conflict. But government-funded scientists also have a that same conflict. It's like polling a group of little kids with a microphone in one hand and a bag of candy in the other.

Speaking of nebula, did you know Global Warming causes asteroids?

Also acne, killer jellyfish attacks, cannibalism, depressed pets, melting mammoth dung, deaf polar bears, more hurricanes, less hurricanes and Hitler?

When Global Warming causes Everything, then Everything causes Global Warming! It is the Unprovable Thesis; if everything proves it, nothing does. It is the clean, well-lit room of One Idea. And that room is a padded cell at the Al Gore Wing of the Tennessee State Prison for the Criminally Insane.

Which is where Climate Sharia Imam Al Gore wishes to put those who disagree with him, first by calling them Climate Deniers to equate them Holocaust Deniers, and then to prosecute them, ironically in the Nazi/Islamist styleNot too long ago, Al Gore stood on a stage with a dozen state attorney generals. Like Loretta Lynch, they were threatening to jail Climate Heretics. Because...Science!

That's not science--that's Al Capone with a chemistry set and a badge.

Failing that, Big Climate is happy to eco-harass, like Barack Ogabe did to Gibson guitars, while leaving Martin guitars unscathed for the exact same actions, an ill-defined and ever-shifting menu of offenses against the Sacred Trees. The real difference: Gibson made the wrong political contributions, Martin made the "right" ones.

You can be bi-curious and get your own after-school club, but being sky-curious is verboten in Hoboken, banned in Boston, taboo in Peru and just not done in Oregon. 

"Here, kids; the Unabomber said we could read his margin-scribbled copy of Al Gore's "Earth in the Balance"--and remember, 'Question Nothing!' Welcome to One-Party Education, heretic. There won't be a quiz later--we don't like inquisitiveness.
The reason I dismiss Global Warming [aside from the fact that it is a fraud perpetrated by the Left to control Industrial Policy, raise taxes, transfer wealth and sovereignty from America to Transnational Government and to insidiously yet coercively manufacture "consent" through government funding] is this:

Feather the booby's nest, not the Blob's nest
That bird was full of plastic from the ocean. We could mount a real campaign to rid the oceans of this real, tangible pollution--but instead we're pumping billions, even trillions, down bureaucratic rat holes, wasting national fortunes on pure fantasy when we could clean up real messes and preserve real habitat. 

And, by the way, Carbon Trading is another Globalist $cam that does nothing for the actual environment. It is a tax on every breath you exhale, which is why the tax-collectors hired the crazy Swedish girl to yell at them at the UN; they only hear the cash registers humming.

Another reason: Did your teachers tell you that Ronald Reagan proposed a Green New Deal decades before AOC?

Gov. Reagan at CPAC, 1975; "Let Them Go Their Way":

"Shorn of all side issues and extraneous matter, the problem underlying all others is the worldwide contest for the hearts and minds of mankind. Do we find the answers to human misery in freedom as it is known, or do we sink into the deadly dullness of the Socialist ant heap? Those who suggest that the latter is some kind of solution are, I think, open to challenge. Let’s have no more theorizing when actual comparison is possible. There is in the world a great nation, larger than ours in territory and populated with 250 million capable people [He means Soviet Russia]. It is rich in resources and has had more than 50 uninterrupted years to practice socialism without opposition. We could match them, but it would take a little doing on our part. We’d have to cut our paychecks back by 75 percent; move 60 million workers back to the farm; abandon two-thirds of our steel-making capacity; destroy 40 million television sets; tear up 14 of every 15 miles of highway; junk 19 of every 20 automobiles; tear up two-thirds of our railroad track; knock down 70 percent of our houses; and rip out nine out of every 10 telephones. Then, all we have to do is find a capitalist country to sell us wheat on credit to keep us from starving!"

Speaking of decades, that's another reason to question their Climate Change religion.

30 years ago, we had 10 years left to do something about Climate Change or the world would end. 20 years ago, we had ten years left. 10 years ago, we had ten years left--it's always 10 years.

A year ago, they said we have 10 years remaining--and its still ten years today! Shouldn't it be nine? Except for AOC who said 12 years, in which case it should be 11. Are we going to trust the entire economy to people who can't even do basic math? 

Why is it never 10 months? Or 10 weeks? Or even 10 days?
Biff: "Missy, we only have ten minutes left--kiss me!" 
Missy: "But, Biff--shouldn't we go close a power plant or something?"
Biff: "No time for that. Kiss me now, Missy!"
Missy: "Oh, Biff..."
(ten minutes later:)
Biff: "Okay--see you later, Missy."
Missy: "Biff--you lied to me! It's ten minutes later and the world didn't end! We're fine!"
Biff: "Climate Denier! How long have been a Climate Denier, Missy?"
Missy: "Oh--about ten years now."
"I thought our love would always weather the weather."

Carbon Trading is another Globalist $cam that does nothing for the actual environment--but it will buy Al and his new girlfriends another giant houseboat with jet skis. It is a tax on every breath you exhale, which is why the tax-collectors hired the crazy Swedish girl to yell at them at the UN; they only hear the cash registers humming.

There are so many bad things about the Climate Change Hoax, it's hard to list them all, but they include hurting the economy (which impacts peoples' health) and the corruption of the Scientific Method, which like our corrupt jurisprudence, starts with the result and works backwards to the "facts".

But one of the worst things about pouring billions down a Make-Believe Climate Rat-Hole so some Eurocrat bureaucrat can afford to take two mistresses to the Riviera next summer  instead of just one, is that the money could be used instead for real, actual programs, such as this animal rescue, or habitat protection or clean-up of plastics in the oceans.

I sometimes call this The War on Weather as a way of pointing out the stupidity and futility of the exercise. But Climate Change is not about the weather.

It's the same old issue. Manufactured Climate Change is about freedom--and how to take it away from you.


Climate Fascism is still Fascism. ....... 
 
UPDATE: Mark Steyn on his book "A Disgrace to the Profession" The World's Scientists - in their own words - on Michael E Mann, his Hockey Stick and their Damage to Science - Volume One
"The "hockey stick" graph of global temperatures over the last bazillion years is the single most influential icon in the global-warming debate, gleefully seized on by the UN's transnational climate jet set, heavily promoted by Al Gore's Oscar-winning crockumentary, tirelessly used by governments around the world to sell the Kyoto Accord to their citizens, and taught as "incontrovertible" "settled science" to impressionable schoolchildren around the world from kindergarten to graduation. Mann's hockey stick told the simplest of stories: climate-wise nothing happened for nine hundred years until suddenly, in the 20th century, the mercury took off and shot up through the top right-hand corner of the graph - and now we're all gonna fry.

Meanwhile, back in the real world, the global-warming "pause" is about to enter its third decade, which suggests it may all be a bit more complicated than that. And yet Mann's cartoon science was so effective as propaganda that the Big Climate enforcers cannot renounce it.

You'd never know from all the constant bleating about "the 97 per cent consensus" that Michael E Mann and his hockey stick are, in fact, held in very low regard by many of the world's most eminent scientists. I was a bit surprised myself - until I noticed how few scientists were prepared to support him and I started to dig around."..............

"If I just move this little decimal point, no one will ever know. What harm could it possibly do? It's for a good cause--Al Gore says I'm even saving the planet! And who's going to check my work a century from now? But if I don't manipulate the data, I won't get a paid vacation...for the rest of my life!
 Say, I wonder if that little red-head is going to be at the beach house next door this summer..."

Climate Change is the planetary version of the COVID medical Plandemic: #FakeScience in the service of Social Control, Leftism, Power, Greed, Depopulation and Globalism.

Don't forget your umbrella.
