EPA website removes climate science site from public view after two decades
The Washington Post ^ | 4/29/2017 | Chris Mooney and Juliet Eilperin

Posted on 04/29/2017 10:56:45 AM PDT by mdittmar

The Environmental Protection Agency announced Friday evening that its website would be “undergoing changes” to better represent the new direction the agency is taking, triggering the removal of several agency websites containing detailed climate data and scientific information.

One of the websites that appeared to be gone had been cited to challenge statements made by the EPA’s new administrator, Scott Pruitt. Another provided detailed information on the previous administration’s Clean Power Plan, including fact sheets about greenhouse gas emissions on the state and local levels and how different demographic groups were affected by such emissions.

The changes came less than 24 hours before thousands of protesters were set to march in Washington and around the country in support of political action to push back against the Trump administration’s rollbacks of former president Barack Obama’s climate policies.

The Anthropomorphic Pharisees are concerned. The power of the Unholy Inquisition must be maintained or the worship of Man will suffer.

Appeasing the president isn’t a change in policy. It’s just keeping their head down until the flat earthers take charge again.

Man made climate change can not be proven using the scientific method but but it can be proven using the Lysenko Method where the results come first then papers proving it.

With so many people disagreeing on the science and data used to determine man made global warming is occurring at all; I think it’s a good idea to shelve the entire concept until real science can determine it using proven scientific methods and not just wishful thinking and altered data.

Remember; the global warming alarmists have been using this scam since 1922 so it’s nothing new. Climate has always changed and cycled through different hot/cold spells. The sun has the biggest effect on our climate as has been proven with real science. I do believe the one study that showed we humans do have a tiny effect on climate, less than 1% worldwide, but nothing we can do anything about.

If these people who have created a religion around global warming really wanted to do something worthwhile they would work toward lessening the number of humans on the planet using up the finite resources it has. That’s where the real issue is. At the very least try to slow or stop the increase in population worldwide. The very people who should not be having children, the dirt poor in far too many countries, are the ones having 5-10 of them. No wonder they are starving to death. It should be criminal to bring a child into that situation and environment. Time to sterilize swaths of irresponsible parents as harsh as that may sound. We can start here by sterilizing anyone getting welfare for a second child or who has given up a second child for adoption to their mother or aunt so they can collect money from the government until the kid is 18.

Thank you. I never head of Lysenkoism I had to look it up. It’s the manipulation or distortion of the scientific process

said, "they would work toward lessening the number of humans on the planet using up the finite resources it has"

It's not resources that is the way to limit the human population.

It seems to be electricity and the gadgets that goes with it. At the present rate of getting electricity to the third world we should be hitting a population limit of around 9 billion

EPA is pure pseudoscience since its unconstitutional conception. Scientism is a religion and so dogmatic that it is now purely irrational—no Truth (God) allowed anymore since McCarthy days (when Marxists took over all our institutions). People with Truth are demeaned, destroyed, fired, etc. Only people who promote vice/marxism, lies, irrationality are allowed to hold office in these unconstitutional Marxist organizations. It is all to destroy Rule of Law (Higher Laws/Gods) for Rule of Man (Oligarchy which we have now). It is unconstitutional and Marxism (slavery).

EPA is only for control of resources and to force their Narrative for a One World government. All bureaucracies become totally corrupt—and it needs to be eliminated, with the CIA and IRS, etc., etc.,-—all unconstitutional, anyhow. We need local control of most everything—particularly Dept. of Education and zoning “laws”.

We never needed the pseudo-mafia “protection” of a vast bureaucracy, if we have a true Justice —court—system, and only “public virtue” can be promoted in EVERY Just Laws. All “Justices” have to promote the Rule of Law (Constitution) and Justice (virtue only). Now we have evil “judges” who destroy the Constitution and Rule of Law for “feelings” (irrationality)—so chaos will result. Right Reason and Natural Law Theory —both embedded in our Justice system are removed for Marxist irrationality—where Slavery is Freedom and Boys can be Girls and Sodomy (Ba’al Rites) is a Virtue and SCIENCE and TRUTH BE DAMNED (outlawed).

It removes Reason (that which makes us human) from Mankind. (Marxism reduces us to animals to be herded and controlled and culled when needed).

All these redundant “organizations” are only to gain billions of dollars of taxpayer money and pensions, etc. for the friends and family of politicians and people who “think” one way—the Marxist way which is antithetical to the Constitution. It is for power—to force compliance to total slavery, control by the few elites who buy off and control everyone in “power”.

CO2 in atmosphere= 400ppm (400/1,000,000).
Man responsible for .03% = 12ppm (12/1,000,000).
USA responsible for 17% of man made CO2 = 2 ppm (2/1,000,000).

INSIGNIFICANT!

It should be 12 / 400 = 3%. Not .03%
