DELINGPOLE: Environmentalists Aren’t Just Wrong. They’re Loathsome And Evil Too

Today is Earth Hour and as usual I shall be lighting a candle – several, actually; plus turning my Rayburn up to eleven; plus turning on all the house lights; plus lighting the patio heaters; plus starting my Landrover and leaving its diesel engine to idle outside in the drive; plus switching on the immersion heater; plus running several hot baths – in tribute to the world’s climate heroes.

I refer, of course, to the tiny, elite fellowship of scientists, economists, politicians, journalists and bloggers who have bravely taken the right side of the climate argument and spoken up for truth, integrity and the scientific method in defiance of the vast and terrifying propaganda behemoth they call the Green Blob.

Well crap. I must have forgotten to put it on my calender. What time is it scheduled for so I can make sure to power up EVERYTHING including turning my Amp up to 12.

Well, I certainly am happy I did not tell my neighbor about my furnace malfunction. Last night the temp inside was 76 degrees so I turned down the thermostat. This morning it was 80 degrees. Yikes.

The emergency furnace man just left, and my only regret is the money I had to spend. Could not care less about global warming, just thankful for natural gas and the carbons that fuel the furnace.

My neighbor tried this last year and broke her toe walking through the house in the dark.

Every environmentalist is a lying totalitarian thug.

People will not fight to their death over what they know to be true, only for what they fear might not be true.

Isn’t that the make and model Archimedes owned when he said “Give me a chain and a hitch on which to place it, and I shall tow the world.”?

If you want to bend their heads, invite them over for an evening by the fireplace and point out that your fireplace logs are actually (stored) solar energy. Man, does that make them fidget.

An old man I knew had one of the huge Ford Excursions with a diesel engine. When he passed away a while back, the family sold it. It would have been fun to fire it up and take it for a joyride today. Go get Krispy Kremes and coffee.....or something useful like that. 😊

The cult of the global warming/ climate change nuts is all about money and control.

Like you, I turn on *everything* for “Earth Hour” — but, I also turn off everything for the hour prior. That makes for an even stronger statement.

The day after every past “Earth Day”, the media reports how much energy was “saved” by all the earnest planet savers. They simply look at local electricity consumption in the hour before the switch-off event, and compare that to the consumption during the magic hour.

Turning everything off earlier lowers the benchmark & thus neutralizes the impact of at least one sanctimonious planet saver. Turning everything on during “Earth Hour” probably neutralizes the impact of two or three ‘planet savers’.
