Propaganda Alert: Over 200 Health Journals Whine for ‘Urgent Action’ on ‘Climate Crisis’

The liberal media has to find a new way to keep its COVID-19 scare strategy going: Have “health journals” sound the alarm on the “climate crisis.”

The Guardian is leading the charge. It screeched in its story’s headline: “More than 200 health journals call for urgent action on climate crisis.” The journals are reportedly “publishing an editorial calling on leaders to take emergency action on climate change and to protect health.” The editorial demanded action to keep global temperature increases below “1.5C” and “halt the destruction of nature.” Too bad for The Guardian that Hoover Institution Visiting Fellow Bjorn Lomborg already slapped down this talking point in a February interview with Fox Business host Larry Kudlow: “[T]he U.N. Climate Panel tells us that in the 2070s — so, more than 50 years from now — the net impact of global warming will be equivalent to each one of us losing [only] somewhere between 0.2 and 2 percent of our income.”

The editorial, which is being published before the United Nations General Assembly, dismissed Lomborg’s context and belched end-of-times nonsense.

"Life was clearly better when half of North America was under a mile of ice."

I recommend that everyone read a book on natural history. That will show them the dramatic geological and climate changes that occurred before the rise of human civilization. We had continental drift and the rise and fall of mountain ranges, the appearance and disappearance of great lakes, the creation of vast deserts in formerly lush areas, we had ice ages and warm periods, the extinction of many species, yet the alarmists try to panic us about normal coastal erosion or the disappearance of a reef or sand bar.

Great = GRATA. As in Thornberg.

You and I both know it was nothing to do with actual care of the Earth, or fear of the climate changes.

The climates has always, and will always, change.
Humans must adapt to the Earth as it changes, not attempt to control the Earth.

covid lockdown

climate lockdown

what’s the difference?

If you think the nearly 2 year “2 weeks to flatten the curve” lockdowns were bad, wait until the climate lockdowns. They are coming and no one will stop them.

1. Limited driving - even/odd day staggered driving allowed
2. High taxes over a base mile allotment for driving
3. Required centralized administrations of your indoor temperature settings. No lower than 78 in the summer and no higher than 66 in the winter
4. Red meat limits - must present ID and have documented purchase - no more than a certain amount purchased per month.
...and more.

You can laugh. It’s coming. They see what they got away with during COVID. They know they will not be stopped.

For sure, there were a lot fewer drive by shootings, when Chicago was buried under a mile of ice.

You can read the “editorial” at Wattsupwiththat.com. It is truly an unbelievable pile. No science in it whatsoever. There are no words to effectively communicate how blatant a piece of propaganda, launched in “journals” around the world in an orchestrated assault on rationality.

In anticipation of upcoming COP26 in Scotland, this is preliminary bombardment of the territory (us) being assaulted in all out war. Prepare for an unrelenting storm of socialist-inspired combat against freedom, amid hue and cry for suffocating new laws.

As I predicted, they are leaning heavily on the tactic of “climate change” as a “public health emergency.” They will use the draconian controls developed for covid as precedent to do the same thing re: climate change.

Show me the "Climate Crisis" on this chart, doctor. You can read charts can't you?

[9YearLurker]

Because those medical journal editors are so on top of climate change.

Airplanes are the worst offenders since they emit CO2 high into the air, where it lingers.

Transatlantic flying should be banned during the summer months.

CO2 emissions are not equal.

... wait until the climate lockdowns. They are coming and no one will stop them.

Some people might think you're exaggerating. Indulging in hyperbole.
That they would never try anything that crazy.

But here is a video of Justin Trudeau saying that is exactly what the next step is.

[Codeflier]

It’s definitely going to happen. The worst part is I haven’t seen any indications that people will seriously pushback. So I think it is going to actually be much more severe than what I listed here.

[TigersEye]

I think you’re right. Many here will think we are overreacting.

[Sam Gamgee]

And here I thought the number one attribute of a journalist should be skepticism?
