Climate Change: no, we shouldn’t trust the science<\/a>
\n“The science” we were supposed to trust was always a lie.<\/p>\n

Do you remember Global Warming? It was going to melt the polar ice caps, all the glaciers, and pretty much everything other than mountainous parts of Colorado and the Grand Tetons of Wyoming would be underwater in, oh, ten years or so, until ten years had passed and then it would be another ten years, and this time they meant it! The election of Barack Obama was the moment the planet healed and the rise of the seas stopped, except no healing was necessary and the seas weren\u2019t rising.<\/p>\n

Then some annoying, actually replicable, science with data and everything came along that proved global warming and the \u201cscience\u201d backing it was falsified, so our existential, certain\u2014in ten years or so\u2014doom became \u201cClimate Change.\u201d Of course, the climate changes all the time and always has, and there was that nasty Medieval Warm Period where there was no man-made pollution that was as warm or warmer than now, but what are you anyway, a science denier?!<\/p>\n

Oh, we had warnings. Al Gore\u2019s\u00a0An Inconvenient Truth<\/em>\u00a0among them, but like every other bit of climate hysteria, those predictions of imminent\u2014in ten years\u2014doom didn\u2019t happen, though they made Gore and others multimillionaires. And right up until the second term of Donald Trump\u2014how could anyone not understand that Kamala Harris was an Obama-like savior (cackle, cackle)?\u2014our climate-caused doom was certain\u2026in ten years or so, and then\u00a0just like that, it wasn\u2019t:\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

And now, it seems\u00a0they are admitting it was BS all along.<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s nice when something you knew was a fraud all along turns out to be a fraud, but it\u2019s even nicer when the people perpetrating the fraud admit it was a fraud all along.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has just published the next generation of climate scenarios,\u201d science policy analyst Roger Pielke Jr wrote late last week, and in what he called \u201cbig news,\u201d the new framework \u201celiminated the most extreme scenarios that have dominated climate research over much of the past several decades.\u201d<\/p>\n

So the oceans aren\u2019t about to boil off or freeze over or whatever the current scare story is?
\nExactly<\/a>: \u201cThe IPCC and broader research community has now admitted that the scenarios that have dominated climate research, assessment and policy during the past two cycles of the IPCC assessment process are implausible. They describe impossible futures.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is important because the IPCC\u2019s changes resulted in \u201can update to the Science Based Targets initiative\u2019s rules eliminates the need for steep emission cuts by 2030,\u201d\u00a0Trellis<\/a>\u00a0reported on Friday. In other words, even the people committed to radically reduced carbon emissions now say we don\u2019t need to radically reduce carbon emissions to save the world or whatever.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Interestingly, the IPCC, long ago, quietly admitted that even if climate alarmists got all the trillions they demanded to save the planet, the global temperature might be reduced by about 1\u00b0 centigrade, give or take, by the end of the century. It was always about the money, which is ironic in that if the world was ending in ten years, wouldn\u2019t money be superfluous? After all, only so many people can live on the top of Mt. Everest, and they\u2019d be a bit short of breath.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We continue:<\/p>\n

Without getting too technical \u2014 you can read Pielke\u2019s full report for that, should you feel the need to go shoulder-deep in the weeds \u2014 the upshot is that the previous frameworks lacked \u201cany systematic effort to evaluate plausibility of scenarios.\u201d Now, however, \u201cthe new HIGH scenario is exploratory \u2014 a thought experiment, not a projection.\u201d<\/p>\n

My guess is that the IPCC still includes the non-scientific, scary-sounding \u201cHIGH scenario\u201d because otherwise the money might dry up.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, sure. Climate change is real. Happens all the time\u2014geological time\/millions of years\u2014that is. But \u201cthe science\u201d we were supposed to trust is a lie and always was, ten years into the certain doom future and now. Note the IPCC\u2019s scientific-sounding sort of admission, not that they haven\u2019t been lying for decades\u00a0the better to fleece us. It\u2019s just the noble, honest scientists that they are never bothered to determine whether their predictions of ten-year doom made the slightest sense, scientific or otherwise. Ooops. Our bad.<\/p>\n

And what\u2019s with ten years anyway? By then, when the predictions they knew would fail failed, no one would remember them. The media certainly wasn\u2019t going to bring that up and in the meantime the money would keep flowing.<\/p>\n

But what about Al Gore? Recently speaking to a Hollywood\u2014where else?\u2014audience,\u00a0Gore predicted that in 25 years<\/a>\u00a0(get it?) the Gulf Stream will\u00a0collapse and we\u2019ll all be doomed due to\u2014wait for it\u2014global cooling.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
