How much fossil fuel has been exhausted over the past twenty years in all the global summits, in all the combined gatherings of the climate change alarmists?
The majority of these alarmists are VIPs, fly by jet (do they jet-pool?), have an entourage, travel in motorcades (or do they Uber/Lyft-pool?), with security personnel. I'll go out on a limb and state these VIPs and their staff stay at some rather high-end hotels or other rented residences and that all of their meals are a feast.
And every single one of them is overloaded with electronics; cell phone, laptop, ThisPadThatPad. Think there's a lot of waste produced by these folks? Think they leave a large carbon footprint? Do they even think about child-labor cobalt-lithium mining? Why should we leave oil in the ground yet scoop out cobalt and lithium? Take a look at who and where has the lithium. Follow the money. Where is the cheapest labor? Who can monopolize on cobalt and lithium mining? If I were A Liberal, I'd say the evil culprit is...Big Tech. But they're exempt from criticism. Why? They're technology.
Again, The Alarmists resort to fifteen-year old
Headline: Fearless girl, 15, stuns world leaders...("Stuns world leaders"? Really? No hyperbole here...they aren't "leaders").
Climate activist Greta Thunberg, from Sweden, had the opportunity to address a global climate change conference this week, where she didn’t mince her words.
She told diplomats and ministers assembled at the COP24 climate talks in Katowice, Poland: ‘You say you love your children above all else, and yet you are stealing their future in front of their very eyes.’I wonder how she traveled from Sweden to Poland? On foot?
Maybe...global warming climate change is caused by the large increase in air travel. The answer, of course, is all-electric airplanes.
Mercury News has an Op/Ed today on the dangerous air quality in Bay area neighborhoods, advocating that much of this problem is solvable by drastic reduction in fossil fuel use:
Part of the solution is to electrify transportation, a technology which is fully available today. Electric drives and fuel cell engines, powered by renewable energy sources, can meet society’s need for mobility and gradually make fossil fuels obsolete.
Again, The Alarmists advise the answer is substituting our addiction to fossil fuels by replacing it with cobalt and lithium? How is this rational?
Almost ten years ago, the rise of sea levels "over-flowing" was debunked. The Telegraph:
... if there is one scientist who knows more about sea levels than anyone else in the world it is the Swedish geologist and physicist Nils-Axel Mörner, formerly chairman of the INQUA International Commission on Sea Level Change. And the uncompromising verdict of Dr Mörner, who for 35 years has been using every known scientific method to study sea levels all over the globe, is that all this talk about the sea rising is nothing but a colossal scare story.
It's not surprising the Alarmists once again trot out the polar bears and their many dilemmas due to global warming climate change. How many times have we seen various images of the poor polar bears "stranded" on ice sheets?
Polar bears can swim. And they don't need wear a life preserver. I hear polar bears love swimming with Liberals. Just love it! They are known to be very friendly and hospitable to humans, especially Global Warming Climate Change Alarmists.
A Quick Look Back
A Quick Look Back
1985: Action Urged to combat Global Climate Shift. The People's Republic of North Korea The NYT:
2016: Al Gore's Global Warming Racket - IBD:Senator Albert Gore Jr., Democrat of Tennessee, said he would introduce legislation to expand and focus scientific efforts on this greenhouse effect.
[.]
Mr. Gore said his bill would call for ''an international year of scientific study of the greenhouse effect and would request that the President take steps to begin this worldwide cooperative investigation.''
Not one of [Gore's] dire predictions he and the rest of the alarmist community made has come to pass. In fact, there is plenty of evidence that they have been running a racket.Let's revisit the 1970 Earth Day predictions - BarbWire:
Yeaaahhhh...that ice age of 2000? We all remember that. I have trouble, though, remembering if it was before or after the end of civilization. Anyone?
- End of civilization in 15-30 years
- 100-200 million deaths to starvation yearly for 10 years
- A new ice age by 2000
Of course climate change is real. Was it colder this morning than this afternoon? Was it warmer yesterday than today? Or cooler?
Peruse at your own waste of time the Science News
Weather patterns change. NASA:
El Niño is not caused by climate change[.]Well, how about tha...oops, hold on. We have a contrary view: El Niños to strengthen because of global warming, will cause 'more extreme weather'. USA MacPaper:
El Niños will be stronger and more frequent in the decades ahead because of global warming, causing “more extreme events” in the United States and around the world, a news study says.Both are true, for no other reason than both fit the
Well...what about Oregon? Will 2019 be the year Oregon gets climate change bill to the finish line?
Blaming
TruthOut.org (Truth? LOL) says Confronting Capitalism is needed to solve the Climate Crisis.
What, pray tell, IS a "Climate Crisis"?
The Alarmists are disappointed in the outcome of the recent climate summit. CBC News:
It looks like the Alarmist Nations still need to figure out that global carbon tax. Gulf Today:
climate change global warming?
In 2017, U.S. carbon emissions decreased by more than 42 million tons...the largest decline in carbon emissions in the world for the 9th time this century[.] Capital Research:
On an unrelated note, according to the Centers for Disease Control, in year 2016, 35,862 people died from falling (page 14). That's a lot of people.The Alarmists are disappointed in the outcome of the recent climate summit. CBC News:
...some green groups and certain countries expressed frustration that more ambitious climate goals were not achieved during intense negotiations that ran into the weekend.Oh...the hoor-rah.
It looks like the Alarmist Nations still need to figure out that global carbon tax. Gulf Today:
One major sticking point was how to create a functioning market in carbon credits. Economists believe that an international trading system could be an effective way to drive down greenhouse gas emissions and raise large amounts of money for measures to curb global warming.Whoa...did they just say
In 2017, U.S. carbon emissions decreased by more than 42 million tons...the largest decline in carbon emissions in the world for the 9th time this century[.] Capital Research:
China, the Paris Protocol’s champion and the world’s most notorious polluter, produced the largest increase of carbon in the atmosphere in 2017. Coupled with India, China’s carbon contributions accounted for nearly half of the total surge in 2017 global carbon emissions.
