Climate Crisis Cult zealots
want to eliminate
the use of oil, coal
and natural gas,
that provide most of
the world's energy.
But most countries
are expanding
their reliable fossil fuel use,
and families do not want
to reduce their living standards
by eliminating fossil fuels.
The Climate Crisis Cult bases
their false claims on climate
computer model forecasts
out of touch with
real-world observations.
There is no evidence
the +1 degree C.
of global warming
( +/- 1 degree C.)
since 1880 hurt anyone,
was unprecedented,
or was caused by humans,
rather than natural forces
that drove climate change
in the prior 4.5 billion years !
“Solutions” would severely disrupt
modern industrialized societies.
Tens of billions of tons of rock
would have to be removed,
to extract billions of tons of ores,
to create millions of tons of metals,
concrete and other materials,
to manufacture millions of
wind turbines and solar panels,
and install them on millions
of acres of wildlife habitats
– all that to generate expensve,
intermittent energy
insufficiaent for
human needs.
Every step in this process
requires fossil fuels !
Climate Crisis Cult zealots
just ignore these realities.
There is no debate.
Billionaire Michael Bloomberg
gave the Sierra Club $110 million
in a six-year period
to fund its campaign
against coal-generated
electricity.
Chesapeake Energy
gave the Club $26 million
n three years to promote
natural gas and attack coal.
Ten wealthy liberal foundations
gave another $51 million
over eight years to the Club
and other
environmentalist groups
to battle coal.
Over a 12-year period,
the Environmental
Protection Agency
gave its 15 Clean Air
Scientific Advisory
Committee members
$181 million in grants.
During the Obama years,
the EPA, Interior Department
and other federal agencies
paid environmental
pressure groups
tens of millions
in collusive, secretive
sue-and-settle lawsuit
payoffs on dozens of issues.
Heritage Foundation economist
Stephen Moore, citing government
and other reports:
* Federal funding for climate change research, technology, international assistance, and adaptation has increased from $2.4 billion in 1993 to $11.6 billion in 2014, with an additional $26.1 billion for climate change programs and activities provided by the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
* The Feds spent an estimated $150 billion on climate change and green energy subsidies during President Obama’s first term.
* That didn’t include the 30% tax credits/subsidies for wind and solar power: $8 billion to $10 billion a year – plus billions more from state programs that require utilities to buy expensive “green” energy.
* Worldwide, according to the “progressive” Climate Policy Initiative, climate change “investment” in 2013 totaled $359 billion – but this “falls far short” of the $5 trillion per year that’s actually needed.
The US Government
Accountability Office
puts United States
taxpayer funding alone
at $2.1 billion per year
for climate change “science”
… $9.0 billion a year
for technology R&D
… and $1.8 billion a year
for international assistance.
Total US Government
spending on climate change
totaled $179 billion
from 1993 through 2017,
according to the GAO.
That’s $20 million per day !
