SUMMARY:
Leftists claim 4.5 billion years
of natural climate change
suddenly ended in 1975,
and then manmade CO2
became the 'climate controller'.
There's no scientific proof
that claim is true, and no
evidence of anything unusual
in the temperature record.
There's no explanation of how
or why that could happen.
Leftists tell us:
"It's true because we say so,
and if you ask any questions,
then you're a climate change
denier ! "
Insults are leftist-style "debate".
There is also no logic supporting
the leftists' claim that the climate
in 1750 was "normal"
-- there's evidence 1650 to 1750
often had an unusually cool
average temperature.
DETAILS:
People who doubt a coming
climate disaster are always
character attacked and ridiculed
-- often called "science deniers.”
Leftists do not debate their
"climate change" beliefs,
and their scary predictions
of the future
( 100% wrong since the 1960s ! ).
Climate change is their
'secular religion',
not real science.
The average temperature
of our planet, measured
by weather satellites,
was in a flat trend
between 2003 and 2019,
even as CO2 levels
increased a lot.
Did your favorite media source
ever tell you that ?
The leftist response
to the warming "pause"
was to arbitrarily "adjust"
historical temperature
data in 2015, creating a
slight rising trend in their
surface temperature data !
They ignore weather satellite data,
and weather balloon data,
that just happen to confirm
the accuracy of satellite data !
Predictions of runaway warming
gets a lot of attention, and grants,
for scientists.
Predictions of runaway warming
also give politicians an excuse
to increase government control
over private sector energy use.
The small average temperature rise
since the late 1800s was good news
for humans, after many cold centuries,
not the bad news by leftists.
“The whole aim of practical politics
is to keep the populace alarmed
(and hence clamorous to be led to safety)
by menacing it with an endless series
of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”
H. L. Mencken
One of today's "hobgoblins"
is the false claim of a coming
climate change catastrophe.
The global warming narrative,
of a coming climate catastrophe,
is a leftist hoax.
The current climate is good,
and has been getting better
for the past 150 years
-- the Earth is 'greening',
according to satellite pictures.
Our planet does not need saving
from beneficial carbon dioxide,
which is the staff of life.
Our planet does need saving
from radical, leftist Dumbocrats,
aiming to destroy capitalism
with their "Green Bad Dream",
while our competitors, such as
China, can't believe any American
could be so dumb ... proposing
the destruction of the US economy !
Based on the leftist definition
of climate change, as a
catastrophe in progress,
the claims are either a hoax,
or a false cult belief,
for these reasons:
(1)
The climate since 2003
has been unusually stable,
based on the average
temperature, humidity,
precipitation, the
accumulated cyclone index,
and sea level rise trends
... along with climate proxies
such as food crop production,
and 'greening' of our planet
-- both improving from
more CO2 in the air.
(2)
Humans can not predict
the future climate, not even
one year into the future,
(3)
The small +1 degree C.
global warming of the
average temperature
since 1880, based on
very rough estimates,
is perfectly normal
for our planet,
(4)
The temperature in 1750 was
unusually cool -- not "normal"
1750 was part of the several
cool centuries from 1300 to 1800
-- and often did not feel "normal",
according to the writings of people
who lived during the cold spells,
(5)
Climate change had been natural
for 4.5 billion years -- CO2 did not
suddenly replace all natural causes
of climate change in 1975, and
become the sole climate controller,
(6)
The average temperature had a
flat trend from 2003 to 2019,
even as huge quantities of CO2
were added to the atmosphere.
(7)
Average temperature and CO2 levels
for 99.999% of Earth's history
have no real time measurements.
"Normal climate" can't be defined
based only on measurements made
during less than 0.001% of Earth's history.
(8)
There is much evidence that CO2 levels
rise hundreds of years AFTER
oceans warm from natural causes
( meaning CO2 was not the cause of the
oceans warming ), as derived from
Antarctica ice core studies of the past
800,000 years.
