It’s worse than that. It is driven as well by money. Billions of dollars go into “research” on GW, and scientists like the finer things in life just like the rest of us.

In todays academy, behavior is controlled by grant money, and if you want some, you have to mention “global warming” or “climate change “ in any article you produce, if you want to see funding for the next one.

And here the man made climate change BS is everything to the Rats and their MSM allies. Power, control, unlimited funding and a weapon to use against the opposition. They have used it to poison the minds of a generation. Even our cars are crippled and cost twice what they have in order to meet preposterous CAFE standards. No the climate BS is very much alive.

The #FakeScience of GlobalWarming and ClimateChange is degrading all disciplines of science. You can see one discipline of science after another following the same pattern of chasing the government dollar and falling in line with the socialist order.

You could easily replace the word reason in my tagline with the word science. The socialists are systematically destroying intellect in all of its forms.

I don't think I'll touch that one with a ten-foot pole!        :-)

I was thinking more along the lines that cows drinking beer like that would produce a significantly greater amount of that "cow flatulence" that AOC was so concerned about, and, via those increased bovine emissions, would offset the loss of hot air emanating from the climate kooks.

I was at a “scientific” meeting not long ago where the keynote speaker said that we needed to do more to scare people into taking climate change seriously. His suggestion? Tell people that climate change will kill the Internet. So no more Google searches, email or streaming movies.

Yes, he was being totally serious.

“I was at a “scientific” meeting not long ago”

You weren’t in Italy were you?

Sorry, I couldn’t resist.

No, it was in the US. Sadly.

I’m not naming the keynote speaker. However, he was a very highly distinguished and well regarded individual, albeit maybe past his prime. In that context, it was sad to see him co-opted by this madness.

He was hanging his hat on the PG&E power cutoffs due to the CA wildfires. No power = No Internet (duh). Of course, he naively attributed the wildfires as an effect of Global Warming.

I could have tried to argue, but it was a large audience and almost everyone else was nodding their heads in agreement with this drivel. Sad.

Great “Scoldilocks’’ Thunberg put the nail in coffin for these idiots. They didn’t count on people not wanting to yelled at by some snarling, pugnacious 16 year old Swedish brat.

Time is on our side.

Each time ‘scientists’ have to create an excuse why the oceans are NOT raising - we have a win. Every time their prognostications DON’T come true, we have a win.

Eventually people will tune them out.

Just like they’ve done with all the other hysterical liberal “chicken little” BS over the years - from peak oil, to the population bomb - to ozone hole spreading - to rivers and lakes killed off by acid rain, to global freeing, to depletion of natural resources, to silent spring, to to to... the list goes on and on...
