EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt
faces death threats,
and verbal attacks
from Democrats,
for one reason:
He questions the global warmunist
'CO2 is evil' climate change fairy tale,
including their beloved 2009 CO2
Endangerment Finding.
Here's what Scott Pruitt
told TIME magazine:
told TIME magazine:
“This is the first time in history that
this ever occurred.
This Agency (EPA) took work product
of the UN International Panel
on Climate Change and adopted it,
and transferred it to this Agency,
and used it as the basis, underpinnings,
of the (CO2) Endangerment Finding.
That had never happened.
It happened in months, by the way.
This Agency doesn’t build a record
in months with respect to
these kinds of issues.
So it really draws down into [this] question:
Did this Agency engage in a,
robust, meaningful discussion,
with respect to the Endangerment
that CO2 poses to this Country?
And I think by any definition
about process they didn’t.”
Quotes above are from Scott Pruitt
in an interview with Justin Worland
of Time Magazine, as reported on
October 20, 2017
Pruitt is right that the EPA had no
meaningful science discussion.
There was a "review", but only AFTER
the Endangerment decision was made.
Critical scientific comments
were never seriously considered.
The CO2 Endangerment Finding
was never referred to the
EPA Science Advisory Board.
General Circulation Models (GCMs)
were used because the government
government bureaucrat "scientists"
who programmed them,
believe that global temperatures
are primarily determined by
by atmospheric CO2 levels.
The GCMs are modified weather models
that were never useful for much more
than one week into the future!
Long ago, the UN's IPCC admitted
that climate is a coupled, non-linear
chaotic system, which can't be
usefully modeled,
beyond a few weeks’ time.
Meanwhile, the so-called models
have been predicting
2.5x to 3x more warming
than has actually happened
over the past three decades.
Climate modelers are not real scientists,
because they are not doing real science.
Wrong wild guesses about the future climate,
are not real science.
Their climate model projections
have been wrong for three decades,
so it's obvious they are not models
of any real climate change process.
They are just "models" of unproven beliefs
that CO2 is the 'climate controller'.
None of this was seriously discussed
when the CO2 Endangerment Finding
was approved in 2009.
The Donald Trump Administration
should reopen the CO2 Endangerment Finding,
to have a serious discussion of the junk science
used to justify it, for the first time.
So far, the Trump Administration has said
little about junk climate science, where
computer "models" make 100-year predictions,
that are grossly inaccurate in the first few
decades of the 100-year period !
Wrong predictions mean the climate physics
model, that supports the GCMs, is wrong.
Which means the leftist belief, that
CO2 controls the average temperature
of our planet, is wrong.
We already know, from ice core studies,
that temperature peaks led CO2 peaks
by 500 to 1,000 years.
That strongly suggests natural warming
causes oceans to slowly warm, and
as oceans warm, they release
dissolved CO2.
That process is just like a glass
of carbonated soda pop
releasing CO2 as it warmed up,
while sitting on a picnic table,
on a warm, sunny day.
Always remember:
The global warmunists
would have us believe
that 4.5 billion years
of natural climate change,
suddenly ended in the 20th century,
when man made CO2 took over ! :
Warmunist Claim #1:
Natural climate change suddenly 'retired'
as the "climate controller",
during the 20th century !
Warmunist Claim #2:
There was no evidence of
positive feedbacks / runaway warming
in the past 4.5 billion years !
Then, suddenly,
with no explanation,
a climate change miracle
just happened !
Warmunist Claim #3:
Man made CO2 took over
as 'climate controller'
during the 20th century !
And then a water vapor
positive feedback,
that triples the warming effect
of CO2 alone, suddenly started
in the 20th century !
( ... although there is no evidence,
of any positive feedback in the
temperature record ).
Only a gullible fool
would believe
the fairy tales
of the global warmunists,
especially considering they
never even try to explain their
'CO2 climate change miracle'
( about how natural harmless
climate change suddenly 'died',
and man made CO2 took over
as the 'climate controller,
some time during the 20th century ! )
