The Climate Change Cult: Talking Points

How about one chart and one talking point?






Computer game climate forecasts are not science -- they are inaccurate climate astrology.


PS:
And here's what the Wall Street Journal said about Obama's recent climate "deal" with China in a November 12, 2014 editorial:

"Under the nonbinding, no-detail agreement, Supreme Leader Xi Jinping (of China) promises “to intend to achieve the peaking of CO2 emissions around 2030,” and then maybe after that to decline. This is another way of describing the status quo."

"Forecasts from the US Energy Information Administration, BP's Statistical Review of World Energy and the academic journal Energy Policy all expect Chinese energy consumption to crest in two decades due to demographic and urbanization trends. Mr. Obama has in essence persuaded the Chinese to do what they planned to do anyway."

"In return for Mr. Xi’s assurances, Mr. Obama pledged that the US will cut emissions by as much as 28% below 2005 levels by 2025. This implies doubling the annual pace of CO2 reductions over the 17% marker that Mr. Obama set in 2009. So using the Sino-American deal as cover, Mr. Obama will now say he is obliged to impose a new burst of aggressive carbon regulations, no matter the harm to US growth."

"Meaningless global warming promises are much easier than corralling weapons of mass destruction in North Korea, or convincing Beijing to fight Islamic State, or for that matter stopping Chinese cyber-attacks on US military and corporate targets. Mr. Xi must have been delighted to see a US President agree to make America less economically competitive in return for rhetorical bows to doing something someday about climate change."
