Climate change policy is an attempt to redistribute the world’s wealth. The climate agenda by which the UN aims to meet it’s unreasonable goals would devastate the economies of the industrial nations while doing nothing for the climate.
Rejendra Pachauri, the former head of the UN Panel on Climate Change stated that , ” The UN climate reports are tailored to meet the political needs of governments. And not for those who aren’t believers, We’ll see that there are enormous financial and career incentives to stay on the global warming bandwagon- plus intimidation and drastic disincentives to punish anyone who thinks of hopping off.”
In 2009 the Climate Gate scandal proved that the key data involving man-made climate change was manipulated. From emails that had been leaked to the public from the university of East Anglia’s Climate Research Center unit exposing how scientists that have been promoting the theory of man-made climate change was actually an attempt to obtain results that served their narrative that the planet was heating at a dangerous trend due to higher levels of carbon dioxide. Which involved trying “to lower past temperatures and to ‘adjust’ recent temperatures upwards to show accelerated warming” according to the leaked emails. The emails revealed significant amounts of data showing temperature records deleted.
Two such emails from scientist Phil Jones working with the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC), were released in 2011 via Forbes:
1, ” Any work we have done in the past on the back of research grants we get has to be well hidden.”
2. ” I’ve discussed this with the main funder (US Dept of Energy) in the past and they are happy about not releasing the original station data.
Data complied by Jane Nova at the Science and Policy Institute incites that the US Government spent more than 32.5 billion on climate change between 1989-2009. This doesn’t count for the 79 billion of tax breaks for green energy. Since then the amount that the US spent on climate change has grown enormous, fed by so many rivers of tax dollars it’s hard to tally.
Takeda Kunihiko Vice Chancellor of the Institute of Science and Technology at Chubu University in Japan, has gone on record stating that, ” CO2 emissions make absolutely no difference one way or the other…. Every scientist knows this, but it doesn’t pay to say so.”
There many factors that determine the weather and the climate and taxes are not one of them. It is the sun, volcanoes, the tilt of the earth’s axis, water vapor, methane, clouds, ocean cycles, plate tectonics, albedo, atmospheric dust, circulation, cosmic rays, particulates like carbon soot, forest, and land use and there’s more.
Ecologist Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace, who left the organization in 1986 because they had become too radical, has argued, ” Water is the most important greenhouse gas by far. And it’s at a far higher concentration in the air than carbon dioxide.”
Dr Tim Ball has a 50 year academic career focusing on Historical Climatology. Dr. Ball concluded that there is no empirical evidence of human caused global warming. There are only computer model speculations that humans are causing it, and every forecast made using these models since 1990 has been wrong. With actual temperatures getting further from predictions with every passing year.
John Coleman founder of the Weather Channel said meteorologists with all their sophisticated equipment; when they try to predict just a few weeks into the future their predictions become increasingly inaccurate. Yet the climate change establishment claim that they can predict the temperatures of Earth decades into the future. When actually the warming from 1880 until now is less than 1.5 degrees, very much in keeping up the the gradual warming pattern since the end of the last ice age.
Benjamin Zycher is a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute where he works on energy and environmental policy. He has an article in National Review that states if Washington State were to immediately reduce greenhouse-gas to zero. that 2/1000 a degree would be the global effect in the year 2100. This figure comes from the Environmental Protections Agency’s climate model. And so Inslee’s claim that his proposed tax would “save our children from droughts, floods, fires, and other existential threats” is preposterous.
The Carbon tax is an excellent way to fund political movements, environmental groups and social groups agendas. As a matter of fact one of the proposed uses for carbon tax by the Washington State Legislature is spending it on “social justice’ programs. That would scarcely help those “affected” by climate change. This seems like a give away to favor friends and special interest.
The government can tax to no end, we can give up our transportation, get rid of airplanes, stop raising cattle and everything else that they claim is the human cause for climate change. Sit around eating dandelions, in a cold house and it will still be hot in the summer, chilly in the fall, cold in the winter and rainy in the spring. Very little change.
Just living has an effect on the environment. An average house of four produces 7.5 tons of CO2 a year. The truth is every energy source has an impact on the environment in some way and life is full of necessary trade offs.
The very idea that all of the components that make up the weather and climate can be taxed enough that the scientists can come up with a way to make it normal. It has never been normal; every year is different. For the last 30 years every evening on the local weather news: this month was the hottest, the coldest, the driest, and the wettest on record.
The weather constantly changing is normal!! BELIEVE IT OR NOT.
