The Climate Scare Narrative Continues To Collapse
American Thinker ^ | 14 Feb, 2023 | I & I Editorial Board

Posted on 02/14/2023 5:37:28 AM PST by MtnClimber

Hot, cold, wet, dry, sunny, clear, snow, no snow – it doesn’t matter, it’s caused by global warming, the climate alarmists tell us over and again. Their desperation is palpable, the cords that keep them tethered to reality fraying more than ever, their charade coming apart.

For more than 30 years, the crisis peddlers have carried the narrative that man’s carbon dioxide emissions are creating an existential threat. They’ve cajoled, bullied, lied, deceived, screeched and burned an immense volume of fossil fuels to get their hard-left agenda codified and executive ordered, and they have some successes to refer to. But their efforts have been, and always will be, useless.

Despite their insistence, facts tell a story that’s quite different.

First, we are now in the 101st month of a warming pause.

“​​There has been no trend in the UAH global mean lower-troposphere temperature anomalies since September 2014: eight years, five months and counting,” reports Christopher Monckton on Anthony Watts’ website, where he helpfully also posts a chart of University of Alabama-Hunstville data to show us what he means.

Going back further, to the date when the satellite measurements – the most trustworthy data we have – began, the temperature record shows only a mild warming of 0.134 degrees Celsius per decade. Hardly anything to be concerned about.

By the way, atmospheric carbon dioxide levels since 1980 have grown from 339 parts per million to 415 PPM in 2021, a 20% increase, according to federal data. Seems the global temperature rise can’t keep pace with CO2 growth.

Also countering the narrative is the true story of sea levels. We’ve been told that man-made global warming will turn coastal cities into underwater attractions as the overheating planet melts ice and snow. But the oceans are not rising. They are stable.

I guess they know when to stop selling. Climate change was sold, now to capitalize on it!

Not a good example; that rock is one that was picked out in much later years because it looked rather like it fit the bill, and that is well-known in these parts. There are other really good illustrations, though, I bet.

“The Climate Scare Narrative Continues To Collapse”

The collapse is seen only in a few obscure publications and websites. The narrative has become DOGMA and is presented and accepted as an indisputable fact in mainstream media. Rarely do I see or hear a dissenting voice. From a practical standpoint the truth has been buried.

Doesn’t matter. The sea has generally been rising since the last glacial maximum. There were no smoke stacks and tailpipes to cause it. The sea level will rise and fall. Climates ALWAYS change.

The climate scare is not collapsing as it has been firmly embedded into many weak minds as an absolute fact. I have relatives in Kalifornia that actually believe water can rise higher on one beach than another due to glow-bull warming. These are Arnie Schwarzenegger grade Republicans that spew rabid leftist propaganda about Trump and the whole country.

So no, the climate change is not going away with most Kalifornians and other leftist states actually believing it.

The Climate Scare Narrative Continues To Collapse

The climate scare is collapsing only with those who are well informed and rational, and that number is getting smaller with each passing year.

Unfortunately, most of the world's governments and large corporations are fully on board with the scam and are aggressively pushing their agenda harder than ever before.

At some point in the not so distant future, Americans will be shivering in the cold darkness and eating bugs, yet many will continue to support the system that made this nightmare possible.

Exactly, it has not collapsed and won’t collapse any place that matters. In Europe they have “warming centers” where people go in shifts to sleep in a building that is a comfortable temperature. They do this because the climate Nazis have driven fuel prices up so high people can’t keep their homes warm.

Actually there’s a place in Europe where the gas is cheap, houses and apartments are warm.

It’s called Russia.

Not to worry.

They will just rebrand it and try again. They have been doing such for a century. They are not about to stop, especially not as long as they can get grants from all levels of government and corporations.

They are a perpetual blight on humanity.

It won’t collapse until it is no longer needed as an excuse to control our lives.

Climate alarmism is a cult religion and the man caused Climate change as a result of fossil fuels is a unquestionable dogma. Even insane rants like Al Gore’s boiling seas or how dare you taunts by an autistic teen Greta Thunberg are accepted without questioning. The science is settled mantra and the climate change Inquisition suppressing any serious scientific questioning of the dogma keeps the hysteria going.

Perhaps when these green policies bring widespread blackouts and empty shelves at the grocery store people will recognize their folly.

Really? In case you haven't noticed, they're spending billions and billions and billions of taxpayer dollars on the "problem" and their friends are being well compensated for supporting this nonsense.

Yep, it even shows up in the comics and Jeopardy questions. Every story you I read in the newspaper that has anything to do with weather, climate, energy, earthquake etc., always has a line about how extreme conditions caused by climate change is making it worse.

And those people are immune to facts. You could show them reams of studies disproving climate change and they wouldn’t believe you. And we have at least two generations coming up that have been taught this crap their whole lives. It is gospel to them.
