Climate alarmists claim
they can predict the future
climate, even though they
have failed for the past
50 years.
They claim their computer
models are their proof,
even though their computer
games only predict what
their owners want predicted.
They claim the climate
in the mid-1700s
was perfect, claiming
any change from then
is bad news.
Many claim a coming climate
crisis, and a few say
in 12 years it will be too late
to stop it !
Some claim climate change
is an "existential" crisis.
What do these beliefs
have in common ?
They are all lies.
Humans have no ability
to predict the future climate,
and future warming would be
good news, not bad news.
Higher CO2 levels promote
faster plant growth
... and faster plant growth
will support more life
on our planet.
So, after all the climate
lies and exaggerations,
it is no surprise that
the European Union
grossly exaggerates their
actual spending related
to CO2 emissions too.
The European
Court of Auditors
is upset about the
European Commission's
overblown claims
about its environmental
program spending.
The auditors looked at
agricultural policies and
structural funds.
They concluded
the proportion of funds
earmarked for climate
change is comically
exaggerated.
The worst offender
is agriculture
programs.
The EU plan had been
to reserve half
of the €100bn
spent on agriculture
for climate protection.
The Commission counts
subsistence payments
to farmers
as climate spending,
if the farmers
fulfill some nominal
climate standards,
which almost
every farmer does.
For the
spending
programs,
the EU uses
an old-fashioned
rounding trick.
OECD recommended
a simplified category,
where governments
count the
climate-protection
share of spending
on any program,
in steps of 0, 40%
or 100%.
The Commission
rounds spending
up to the next level.
1% rounds up to 40% !
41% rounds up to 100% !
That is very dishonest .
Just like the rest of the
coming climate crisis --
coming in 100 years
they told us in 1970,
also coming in 100
years in 1990, coming
in 100 years in 2010,
... and now coming in
12 years, because
people were tired of
hearing "100 years" !
