Delingpole: And So It Begins, Trump’s Great Climate Purge
Breitbart ^ | 8 May 2017 | James Delingpole

Posted on 05/08/2017 12:44:10 PM PDT by Cheerio

Finally the Trump administration is starting to get serious about taking on the Green Blob.

EPA administrator Scott Pruitt – perhaps stung by criticisms that he was turning into a squish – today reaffirmed, in an interview with CNBC, that he is not a believer in catastrophic man-made global warming.

“I think that measuring with precision human activity on the climate is something very challenging to do and there’s tremendous disagreement about the degree of impact. So no, I would not agree that it’s a primary contributor to the global warming that we see. But we don’t know that yet…”

This new boldness coincides with a purge of warmist scientific advisers at both the EPA and the Interior Department.

EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt has chosen to replace half of the members on one of its key scientific review boards, while Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke is “reviewing the charter and charge” of more than 200 advisory boards, committees, and other entities both within and outside of his department. EPA and Interior officials began informing outside advisers of the move on Friday, and notifications continued over the weekend.

The Brits were warned today that a mini-Ice Age is imminent…as in 3-5 years! It will be interesting to see how the global warming “experts” will explain this turn of fortune.

I never thought it was a good idea to give family an official role, especially when his daughter is a liberal.

Ah, but warned by who? Maybe it was Willie Wonka. Maybe he was referring to hot ice, a scientific breakthrough of his own invention. Hot ice makes hot drinks hotter!

“His research, teaching, and outreach program focuses primarily on sustainable development, and he uses a variety of methods from the behavioral and social sciences to study decision-making about the use of natural resources and the values of ecosystem services.”

What in the world are ‘ecosystem services’?

Experts told Daily Star Online planet Earth is on course for a “Little Age Ice” within the next three years thanks to a cocktail of climate change and low solar activity. Research shows a natural cooling cycle that occurs every 230 years began in 2014 and will send temperatures plummeting even further by 2019.

Scientists are also expecting a “huge reduction” in solar activity for 33 years between 2020 and 2053 that will cause thermometers to crash. Both cycles suggest Earth is entering a global cooling cycle that could have devastating consequences for global economy, human life and society as we know it.

I've been following this for a couple of years. Heinrik Svensmark has done some very interesting research on the effects of a quiet sun and our magnetosphere and the resulting impact of cosmic rays on our atmosphere. Basically we get more clouds, atmospheric compression events that result in huge amounts of precipitation and a cooling of the planet. If he's right we're just entering a new cooling period.

We were warned about the coming Ice Age when I was in junior high over fifty years ago.

Now that is something to worry about

Because sun spots are at a minimum. That and we have one approximately every 1250 years. Last one was in the 1700s. Think Washington crossing the Delaware

If you want to see a global warming believer’s head explode, ask them how will you know when it’s fixed? Answer, never. Just like the tobacco settlements cured cancer or stopped smoking.

ecosystem services

That would be something bureaucratic and basically meaningless, an excuse for sinecures and lots of officious prying.

I like to ask them what we are going to do about the “climate change” that is also occurring on other planets that we are causing due to driving SUV’s.
