Senator Wirth also said:
Believe it or not, we called the Weather Bureau and found out what historically was the hottest day of the summer. Well, it was June 6 or June 9 or whatever it was, so we scheduled the hearing that day, and bingo: It was the hottest day on record in Washington, or close to it. It was stiflingly hot that summer. At the same time you had this drought all across the country, so the linkage between the Hansen hearing and the drought became very intense.
You can see that from the start the climate change hoax was not about facts, but manipulating perception to believe a fantasy.
You were saying?
Hansen’s dire claims that day more than 30 years ago have not happened and it’s the same with long-time Cult asset Al Gore who became the global sales-pitcher for the Big Lie and has made a fortune from being so (Fig 262 ). Gore said in 2006: We have ten years to save the planet (big-time wrong); the Arctic will be ice-free by 2014 (big-time wrong); the Gulf Stream will slow down (it’s been speeding up); polar bears are in danger of becoming extinct (big-time wrong); sea levels will rise by 20 feet in the near future (big-time wrong). Read some of my other books and you’ll see the background to Gore who has a personal carbon footprint the size of Godzilla. He was a vice-president to Bill Clinton and you don’t get that job if you have any inclination whatsoever to tell the truth. The Cult controls the Nobel Peace Prize, which is why so many Cult-asset war-mongers and mass killers have been recipients, and it also dictates Oscar winners whenever that would promote the agenda. Gore, you will not be shocked to know, was handed both awards for lying about climate change and frightening the life out of whole generations of children and the young. Prince Charles said in 2009 that we had twelve years to save the world from irretrievable climate and ecosystem collapse (big-time wrong) and with extraordinary idiocy he claimed that climate change was the ‘root cause’ of the Syrian conflict which was actually triggered by terrorists funded and armed by the United States and Gulf State allies like Saudi Arabia. Here are some other climate and environmental catastrophe warnings that turned out to be utter crap around the period that the annual Earth Day was established in 1970 :
Harvard biologist George Wald:
‘Civilization will end within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind.’
American biologist Paul Ehrlich:
‘The death rate will increase until at least 100-200 million people per year will be starving to death during the next ten years.’
Peter Gunter, a North Texas State University professor:
‘Demographers agree almost unanimously see 97 percent of climate scientists agree on the following grim timetable: by 1975 widespread famines will begin in India; these will spread by 1990 to include all of India, Pakistan, China and the Near East, Africa. By the year 2000, or conceivably sooner, South and Central America will exist under famine conditions … By the year 2000, thirty years from now, the entire world, with the exception of Western Europe, North America, and Australia, will be in famine.’
Then there was the climate temperature prediction in 1970 from ecologist Kenneth Watt:
‘The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.’
The threat to human existence went from an ice age to runaway super-heating in the blink of an eye. How could that happen? They just changed the propaganda. The lies are constant and apparently without end.
Make-it-up mythology
We hear claims about the ‘hottest day ever recorded’ and even when you factor out manipulated data the key word is recorded . Many times this will be deleted in headlines to read ‘hottest day ever’. Some background before I make my point. The planet has been hotter for much of its life than it is today and there was the Medieval Warm Period that began around 1,000 years ago which eclipsed current temperatures when there were no factories or 4 x 4s or indeed any carbon producing vehicles at all (Fig 263 ). The warm period was also a time of abundance compared with cold periods. Grapes were grown for wine in the far north of England and even Scotland. There was, in short, no climate catastrophe. Temperatures began to cool and previous abundance disappeared in what is called the Little Ice Age between the 16th and 19th centuries (some say it started earlier). It was so cold in this period they held ice fairs on the River Thames in London which froze over every year. Some Christmas cards still depict the scenes (Fig 264 ). It was highly significant that during the Little Ice Age fantastic explosions of energy on the Sun known as sunspots, which indicate solar activity, all but disappeared. This is known as the sunspot ‘Maunder Minimum’ after the man who conducted the research studies (Fig 265 ). You don’t think there could be a connection between Sun activity and Earth temperature do you? There can’t be, surely, or the Climate Cult would mention the Sun sometimes instead of being utterly obsessed with carbon dioxide. Maybe they think it’s just a coincidence that when the Sun comes out it gets warmer; or perhaps they think that when solar energy projected at the Earth increases this couldn’t possibly affect our temperature (Fig 266 ). They are experts after all. Scientists at CERN recorded an extremely close correlation between Earth temperature and the penetration of cosmic rays into our atmosphere. Records of ‘the hottest day/year since records began’ started mostly as we were still coming out of the Little Ice Age and of course temperatures are going to be warmer now. What use is a comparison between an extremely cold period and one after that period ended? It’s a pointless comparison unless you are trying to mislead which they are. Why would the trough-snout scientists of the Climate Cult seek in leaked emails and documents to delete from the record the existence of the Medieval Warm Period and make it appear that today’s temperatures are ‘unprecedented’ and caused by the industrial era? To mislead, of course, and people mislead to hide the fact that they’re lying. Here are some other climate propaganda myths:
• The migrant crisis is caused by climate change lowering crop yields that force people to relocate in search of food: This has been alleged to explain why so many are heading out of Central America to the United States border and supports the Cult migration agenda which I have described. In fact, crop yields in Honduras, Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama, Ecuador, etc., have been consistently increasing.
• Climate change will empty the North American Great Lakes: This is shown to be without substance by all-time recorded high water levels and no downward trend over 100 years. These high volumes were reported with the question: ‘Why are water levels on the Great Lakes fluctuating so widely?’ How about through misrepresentation of the trend?
• Climate change will mean ever-greater extremes of weather such as tornadoes and hurricanes: Strong tornadoes and devastating landfall hurricanes have been steady in number or in decline in recent decades according to peer-reviewed scientific literature that says the same about droughts, floods, and other extreme weather events. The worldwide death rate caused by weather events has dropped more than 98 percent since the 1920s.
• Polar bears are heading for extinction as climate change makes their ice habitat disappear: Polar Bears became the poster children of the Climate Cult as a symbol for a terrifying future. Polar bear specialists like Dr Susan Crockford, former adjunct professor at the University of Victoria in Canada and a forensic zoologist, demolishes the official narrative in her book, The Polar Bear Catastrophe That Never Happened . Indeed she destroys the polar bear hoax so well that she lost her role at the university in what she described as ‘an academic hanging without a trial, conducted behind closed doors’. This is what happens when you challenge Climate Cult orthodoxy.
Figure 267:You can always bet on the BBC’s David Attenborough parroting (appropriately) the official narrative.
Crockford shows how polar bears are flourishing and communities are either stable or increasing. Polar bears in part of the Barents Sea increased by 42 percent between 2004 and 2015; in Baffin Bay where bears were predicted to decline by 25 percent they increased by 36 percent; and in Kane Basin they more than doubled. The global average had risen to more than 30,000 bears which Crockford says is ‘far and away the highest estimate in more than 50 years’. Crockford exposes the BBC’s climate change propagandist David Attenborough for misleading the public on polar bears and much else in an Internet video Attenborough’s Arctic Betrayal (Fig 267 ). Greta Thunberg said she became an activist on climate change after watching reports of polar bear decline that isn’t happening. The same BBC of course gave her a TV programme (program) to promote her propaganda.
• Images show belching chimneys pouring out ‘dangerous’ carbon dioxide: CO2 is invisible to the human eye and what they are showing you is pollution and not CO2 which is the gas of life and without it there would be no plants and so no humans or animals (Fig 268 ). They show you pictures of pollution to make you believe that carbon dioxide is a pollutant. Most of the ‘journalists’ who do this don’t know the difference themselves in yet another exercise in the blind leading the blind.
Protecting make-it-up mythology
How could a hoax based on so many lies become accepted fact in the minds of so many – especially the young – and drive much of government policy? The hoax has been possible by control of information to indoctrinate a belief system underscored by the fear that ‘we’re all going to die’. I’ve said that once you implant the orthodoxy of ‘everyone knows that’ the rest follows largely unaided. Older people are more sceptical of the climate claims because they’ve not had a lifetime of climate propaganda in the schools and universities. The young have and it’s clear why many children and young people believe the lie pedalled through all Cult institutions of government, ‘education’, and crucially the media. Unless people seek out information beyond the Mainstream Everything they live in a one-track world. Without alternative sources of information the population is only being told what the Cult wants them to think. Pictures of distressed polar bears have been explained as the consequences of ‘global warming’ when the cause of their distress and emaciated state were later revealed to have had other origins unrelated to climate. Show a bear in trouble and say it is climate change and most people believe that to be true when it fits the narrative they have already been suckered to believe in. I read an excellent book by American meteorologist and weather forecaster, Joe Bastardi, a vehement and outspoken exposer of the climate lie. He describes in The Climate Chronicles how he has studied weather patterns going way back to show that weather now being blamed on human-caused climate change has happened in a recurring sequence long before the industrial era. The difference is that before the climate hysteria the same weather was just weather. Today it’s always caused by global warming (which became ‘climate change’ when temperatures stopped rising and then the ‘climate crisis’ as the scare was ramped up). It’s so easy to be scammed if people don’t check the facts. We have a hurricane – it’s global warming!; tornado – it’s global warming!; drought – it’s global warming!. It’s hot – it’s global warming! It’s cold – it’s global warming! Bastardi calls them Climate ambulance chasers. He says: ‘What happened before naturally is happening again, as is to be expected given the cyclical nature of the climate due to the design of the planet.’ Bastardi presents many examples of these cycles now blamed on human activity and this is one relating to droughts in the United States:
… Major US dry periods are a product of a cooling tropical Pacific. In the decades such as the 1950s through the 1970s, when the tropical Pacific is cooler overall, the US is drier than normal in much of the nation.
It is exactly the opposite in the years the Pacific warms, which, by the way correlates nicely to an increase in global temperatures until the atmosphere adjusts to the warming tropical ocean and temperatures level off. But the idea that global warming causes droughts here in the US is the opposite of the facts! It’s when the Pacific starts to cool and global temperatures start to drop that we see it dry out.
Bastardi’s book is highly recommended as is The Politically Incorrect Guide to Climate Change by Republican insider Marc Morano who charts the blatant political manipulation behind the climate hoax. A good website for hoax-challenging information is the Global Warming Policy Foundation at thegwpf.com . We should not forget that all the projections upon projections about climate Armageddon don’t come from observing the climate. They result from putting data and assumptions into computer models and believing what they tell you is going to happen. The fact that they have been wrong by shocking margins so many times might have given them a clue by now that this doesn’t work due to a simple cause and effect: If you factor in shit the computer will process that shit to produce ‘predictions’ that are nothing more than a feedback loop of shit-in and shit-out. Assume something with your input and you’ll get the answer you want, but rarely the truth. There are so many variables and influences that affect climate that long-term predictions are a mug’s game anyway. Follow the cycles that have happened before if you want to predict the climate. There’s another angle to this that we should be constantly vigilant about. Technology to manipulate weather is now highly-advanced and there would not be international treaties agreeing not to manipulate weather if it was not technologically possible to do that. See Everything You Need To Know for detailed background about how extremes of weather can be made to happen and we can expect the Cult to continue to strike in this way around the world to convince people climate disaster is at hand.
The gas of life
The Cult takes facts and inverts them to become the very opposite of the truth before selling the inversion as ‘conventional wisdom’. This way the public perception of reality becomes the opposite of actual reality. We are told we face ‘catastrophe’ when if what the Climate Cult demands are followed through we will have a real, not imagined, human catastrophe in economics, food production and energy supplies (this was written before the ‘virus’ lockdowns which have had the same effect). Global society would be devastated by plans to be ‘carbon neutral’ by 2025 to 2030 or 2050. There can, however, be no better or more blatant example of inversion than carbon dioxide (CO2) itself. This is the gas of life without which we really would all be dead and yet CO2 has been thoroughly demonised (Fig 269 ). If it was human it could sue for libel. You’ll find interviews at Davidicke.com with professors at Princeton University emphasising both the central role played by carbon dioxide in human life and that far from having too much in the atmosphere we don’t have enough . This will be amazing to people who have bought the carbon-is-a-pollutant narrative and it reveals the scale of inversion that we are dealing with. William Happer, Professor of Physics at Princeton University and long-time government advisor on climate, is one scientist who says the planet has a CO2 deficiency and needs more for optimal plant growth and food production. Such views have made him a big hate figure for the Climate Cult as the truth always does. He says that most of the warming in the last 100 years happened as we emerged from the Little Ice Age and was over by 1940. Happer points out that in a peak year for warming in 1988 there was a ‘monster El Nino’ which is a natural and cyclical warming of the Pacific that affects global weather patterns and temperature and has nothing to do with ‘climate change’. He says the nature of the CO2 effect can be likened to painting a wall with red paint. Once two or three coats have been applied it doesn’t matter how much more paint you add the wall will not get much redder. He explains that almost all the effect of the rise in CO2 has already occurred and the amount in the atmosphere would now have to double for even a single degree increase in temperature:
I know a lot about CO2 compared with most climate scientists … there’s an interesting thing about CO2 which is unique to CO2 – it’s not true, for example, of water vapour, methane. This is that if you get one degree of warming from doubling CO2, so going from say 400 parts per million for simplicity to 800 … then to get another degree of warming you have to double 800, you have to go to 1,600. So it gets harder and harder to warm. Technically they call that the logarithmic dependence of temperature rise on CO2 concentration.
Happer said that this fact was realised early in the climate hysteria and to overcome such a demolition of the orthodoxy we had advocates of the hoax inventing theories about ‘feedback loops’ amplifying the CO2 effect. These are the doom-laden predictions that you constantly hear parroted by climate activists including Greta Thunberg. Happer said he laughs when he hears about ‘carbon pollution’ given that people, plants and animals are made of carbon and without it there would be no life. He said that an increase in CO2 in the atmosphere would make plants more drought resistant because when plants open holes in their leaves to absorb CO2 they leak water and the holes have to be open for longer to take in enough carbon dioxide amid what he calls a ‘CO2 famine’. Happer emphasised that CO2 increases since industrialisation have had a ‘huge effect’ on plants and increased their growth: ‘When people talk about the social cost of carbon it’s absurd. The social cost is negative of CO2.’ He said climate computer models don’t look at the world as it is, but at other computer models . How much funding would the modellers get, by the way, if their predictions did not support the Climate Cult hypothesis? Imperial College in London which has produced many of the ridiculous ‘climate change’ models was also responsible for the computer models warning of insane numbers of ‘Covid-19’ deaths in the UK, United States and other countries which led to the lockdowns that have destroyed the lives of billions. Needless to say the insane ‘projections’ did not materialise, but provided the excuse for global house arrest.
Too much CO2? We don’t have enough
The central importance of CO2 was a theme developed by Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore in a presentation to the Global Warming Policy Foundation. Scientist Moore left Greenpeace in 1986 and has criticised the green movement for scare tactics and disinformation with particular emphasis on climate change. He makes the point that other scientists have made about how dangerous it is to have low levels of CO2. Plants start to die at 150 parts per million and Moore says that even when CO2 fell to 180 ppm 18,000 years ago plants began to starve. This only turned around when the temperature went up for reasons I will shortly explain. Calling for a reduction in carbon dioxide is the plant equivalent of humans demanding a reduction in oxygen – CO2 is, in effect, plant oxygen. Today Moore says CO2 stands at around 400 ppm and plant life is still ‘relatively starved of nutrition’ with the optimum levels for plant growth five times higher at 2,000 ppm and in some periods of the Earth’s history the ratio has reached 4,000 ppm. These facts explain why since CO2 levels began to rise with industrialisation the Earth is getting greener as CO2 has risen from 280 ppm in an 1880 measurement in Hawaii to 413 ppm in 2019. The Climate Cult that claims to be ‘saving the planet’ wants to reverse that process! Why do they think people pump extra carbon dioxide into greenhouses?? The Climate Cult contends amid its mass-hysteria that we face extinction when the gas of life is at way below optimum planet-growth levels and 500 million years ago there was 17 times more CO2 in the atmosphere than we have today. Patrick Moore said levels have been falling for hundreds of millions of years as it was absorbed from the atmosphere and locked away by many and various sources. Over the last 150 million years CO2 levels in Earth’s atmosphere had reduced by 90 percent . By the time humans began releasing carbon dioxide through fossil fuels Moore said we were at ‘38 seconds to midnight’ in terms of threats to plant life (thus all life) through plummeting levels of CO2. Not only aren’t humans causing extinction they are preventing it. ‘Release of CO2 has turned around the constant fall’, Moore said, and in this sense ‘Humans are the Earth’s salvation’. Moore also noted that only half the CO2 emitted by fossil fuels ends up in the atmosphere. You read these facts about the fundamental importance of CO2 and then hear as I did an interview with ‘carbon footprint expert’ Mike Berners-Lee, a professor at the Institute for Social Futures at the UK’s Lancaster University, and brother of Tim Berners-Lee who is credited with inventing the World Wide Web. The interview was on the London-based TalkRadio in which Mike Berners-Lee told an unchallenging host how emails add to carbon emissions and that ‘a low-carbon world is better than a high-carbon world’. Breathes deeply, shakes head, moves on. Some other information in Patrick Moore’s speech that the Climate Cult should know: The Earth has been in a major cooling period since the maximum of 50 million years ago when it was as much as 16 degrees warmer. Today’s poles were ice free and covered in forests. The ancestors of today’s species came through that temperature period fine, but a two percent rise is now supposed to threaten mass extinction! Even in our current interglacial period we are experiencing one of the coldest climates in the Earth’s history. The Medieval Warm Period (long before fossil fuels) was still cooler than temperatures in the last 10,000 years, Moore said.
Temperature doesn’t follow CO2 – it’s the other way round
