Thursday morning climate rap: There was a rare climate science debate: Climate Howler Andrew Dessler vs. Climate Realist Steven Koonin

 I wake up with a climate rap in my head every once in a while. I'd rather wake up and write down a hit song, but that never happens ...

I recently read a good report of a rare event at the excellent Manhattan Contrarian website (link below): About a leftist Climate Howler debating a Climate Realist on what he believes about climate science.  

Report On Yesterday's Soho Forum Climate Change Debate — Manhattan Contrarian

It should not be difficult for the opposing Climate Realist to win a debate on the science, and he apparently did win this debate. But science is only a small part of the coming climate crisis fantasy propaganda.  


Climate Howler science is simple, limited and correct:

(I know some climate realists reject their basic climate science, and that is a weakness among the climate realists)

The coming climate crisis science:

-- CO2 is a greenhouse gas

-- More greenhouse gases in the troposphere should impede Earth's ability to cool itself by an unknown amount (Note: The 47 years of global warming so far have been harmless, at worst.  But the predictions were for rapid and dangerous rates of global warming, that so far have only existed in leftist overactive imaginations, for the past 50+ years.)

I can make a decent case in favor of more CO2 in the atmosphere, and more global warming, as being beneficial. From warmer winter nights in Siberia. the greening of our planet and milder winters here in Michigan. That's where the real science ends, and the junk science begins. The junk science is "scientists say science" -- the always wrong wild guess predictions of climate doom, repeated year after year.

And the media repeats the scary stories from government bureaucrat "scientists", who are paid to create scary climate stories, like trained parrot "journalists".  For over 50 years so far.  A very effective (political) propaganda campaign.

Such effective coming climate crisis propaganda that people forget, or don't even realize. they have lived though up to 47 years of global warming, since 1975, that was mild and harmless, completely unlike the 47 years of always wrong predictions of rapid, dangerous global warming.

Such effective coming climate crisis propaganda that people don't realize every prediction of environmental doom since the 1960s was wrong.  100% wrong. Not only the climate predictions.

COMING CLIMATE CHANGE CRISIS PROPAGANDA IS SO EFFECTIVE THAT IT PREVENTS MOST PEOPLE FROM ENJOYING TODAY'S WONDERFUL CLIMATE. 

U.S. HURRICANES MAKING LANDFALL HAVE BEEN IN A DOWNTREND SINCE THE LATE 1800s. 

MAJOR US TORNADOES HAVE BEEN IN A DOWNTREND SINCE THE 1950s. 

US HEAT WAVES, DROUGHTS AND FOREST FIRE ACRES BURNED PEAKED IN THE 1930s. 

THE 1930s STILL HAVE THE MOST US STATE MAXIMUM HEAT RECORDS OF ANY DECADE, BY FAR.
