The global warmunists
took the staff of life,
carbon dioxide,
and used propaganda,
with almost no real science,
to convince a lot of people,
CO2 was a satanic gas.
The global warmunists
took the best climate,
in hundreds of years (now),
added a runaway warming
bizarre fairy tale,
based on no science at all,
to convince a lot of people,
the current climate is bad,
and getting worse every year.
An outbreak of cold Arctic air,
that brought the coldest
three-week period
I've ever experienced
in Michigan, USA
(since 1977) was actually
claimed by warmunists
to be a symptom of
global warming!
And even more amazing
than that lie, is that
quite a few leftists
are stupid enough
to believe unusually cold
weather could be a symptom
of global warming (now
called climate change).
The “Bomb Cyclone”
of early 2018 is
yet another example
of warmunist
propaganda.
I had never heard of
a bomb cyclone,
so I looked it up.
"Bomb cyclone" was a new,
scary propaganda term
that used to be called
a “Nor’easter.”
The worst “Nor’easter”
was actually
the blizzard of 1888,
that:
“…cut off and immobilized
Washington, D.C., Philadelphia,
New York City, and Boston.
Snowfall average 40 to 50 inches
over southern New York State
and southern New England,
with drifts to 30 and 40 feet.
In Middletown, N.Y.,
snowdrifts were reported
to have covered houses
three stories high.
The townspeople had to
tunnel through the snow
like miners,
even shoring up
the passageways
with timber.
For two days,
frequent gale-force to
to near-hurricane winds
accompanied
below-freezing
temperatures
which ranged
from near zero
to the low twenties
over much of the area.”
Above quote is
from the 1976
U.S. Department
of Commerce book:
“American Weather Stories"
Anthropogenic (man made)
global warming (or AGW)
is the most important
subset of environmentalism.
The IPCC (Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change)
narrowed the definition
of climate change,
in the 1980s,
to "man made" --
the prior 4.5 billion years
of natural climate change,
was "bumped off"
and they arbitrarily
decided that
decided that
man made CO2
was the new "boss".
The global cooling,
from 1940 to 1975,
was a big problem,
because CO2 was rising!
So the warmunists
invented a new
boogeyman:
Man made
sulfate aerosols,
blocking sunlight.
One big problem
was the sulfates
stayed high after 1975,
even as global warming
began.
Of course there
is no way sulfates
could have instantly
disappeared in 1975,
but no one in the
leftist press
bothered to
ask questions!
AGW predicted disasters,
such as an end to
Arctic ice in summer,
and continued warming,
are not happening.
The warmunists
continue to push
their agenda
by becoming
even more extreme.
Many people were
were shocked by a
“Bomb Cyclone”,
not realizing the new term
was used to make a
typical US east coast
Nor’easter more scary,
because AGW claims
storms will increase
and get stronger.
But they are wrong.
AGW also claims
polar air will warm more
than the tropical air.
That would cause a
smaller temperature
differential between
the poles and tropics
which meteorologists
know makes the
weather milder!
As Mencken said
decades ago:
“The whole aim
of practical politics
is to keep
the populace alarmed,
and hence clamorous
to be lead to safety,
by menacing it
with an endless series
of hobgoblins,
all of them imaginary.”
