Climate change means that things are changing. The only time you don't have climate change is when nothing changes.
I can't believe how stupid I've been all these years. I feel so ashamed.
No one talks about Global Warming anymore. That is so early 21st Century. Now it is all about Global Climate Change.™
The problem with the Global Cooling and Global Warming scams is that eventually even the most low information rubes had to realize that all of the predictions ever made were wrong.
The world is getting colder. In 20 years we are going to have another ice age. Only it didn’t happen.
The world is getting warmer. In 20 years the polar ice caps will melt and the seas will rise. Only it didn’t happen.
That is why Global Climate Change™ is so much better. Global Climate Change™ is the scam that can never be proven wrong.
Is it warmer than usual today? It is caused by Global Climate Change.™
Is it colder than usual today? It is caused by Global Climate Change.™
Is it wetter than usual today? It is caused by Global Climate Change.™
Is it dryer than usual today? It is caused by Global Climate Change.™
Is it windier, less windy, cloudier, less cloudy? It doesn’t matter! There will always be weather. Now, whenever there is bad weather, no matter what the weather happens to be, it is caused by Global Climate Change.™
Notice how the environmental whackos on the left rarely talk about real water and air pollution anymore and instead focus entirely on CO2?
The leftists have always called for more socialist/marxist government control as the cure for pollution (and everything else). Pollution, don’t you see, is caused by capitalism.
Then the iron curtain fell and it became irrefutable that the worst polluters in the history of the world were the former communist countries, most of which had become large toxic waste dumps. People generally don’t pollute property that they own. People have no such restraint about polluting property that belongs to someone else. Pollution, the world could see, is caused by socialism.
So now the entire focus is CO2, because the United States, having the world’s largest economy, naturally produces the most CO2 per capita. Never mind that CO2 is a trace gas that is necessary for the survival of life on Earth.
This time socialism will work!
