After 15 years of non-stop “We are all going to die”, we didn’t die. So people just lost interest.

“...the United Nations’ traveling climate circus committed itself to the fanatical mission of massive near-term reductions in fossil fuel consumption, codified in unrealistic proposals like the Kyoto Protocol...”

It was bunk from the start and then a laughably biased MSM made matters worse when they overplayed their hand. MSM ‘reporting’ on this is predictable, hackneyed and irrelevant.
‘Journalists’ have lost every pretense of objectivity and are NO LONGER credible. (For MY money-they never were.)

In ‘journalism education’, this whole thing has become the text book example for the evils of bias in reporting. It’s all been an infallible, thorough blueprint for squandering your integrity.

The MSM agreed with the BS ‘science’; outright manufactured proofs; dismissed all contrary views; demonized opposition and finally had no more cards to play.

Always was a scam. Too bad we don’t tech math in public schools because the kids would have realized long ago that “recycling” was a massive money loser and made no practical sense yet it was beaten into their brains.

I’m sorry to admit it’s true. However, my alma mater is one of the apparently rare ones that awards a BS, instead of a BA, in Political Science. I also have a Juris Doctor. So that makes me a doctor and a scientist. Which makes me pretty special, I think.

[[Even a dumb a** knows you can’t reverse or revise climate change and that God not man is the controlling force in the universe.]]

Man is responsible for creating CO2 that amounts to just 0.00136% of the atmosphere- there is no way that pitifully small amount of CO2 can ‘blanket the earth to trap enough heat to cause global warming’- There simply is nowhere near enough CO2- not even close-

That fact alone ‘should be’ enough to convince anyone with a rational mind that man can’t possibly the the source of climate change- yet sadly many many people have fallen for the lies of the left because they haven’t got minds capable of critical thought

To get around the pay wall, open an incognito window and type in www.wsj.com. Scroll down, WAY DOWN and find the article under Commentary.

Excellent tip!!! I notice that on my computer it only works using Chrome's “incognito mode” and not Microsoft's “In Private” mode.

I notice that the piece is making liberal heads spin on leftist forums even though or maybe because it doesn't try to cite the rampant data manipulation and statistical fallacies that that the entire slimy hoax is built upon.

The man-made global warming hoax has the same fundamental problem as the Mueller investigation. Even Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels understood that your big lie had to be based on a nugget of truth, a genuine kernnel from which to build your big lie upon. When people see with their own eyes there is “no there, there”, it is hard to sustain the big lie.

I cant wait until the AGW hoax is done and noone but the most radical leftist environmentalists believes it.

UN Agenda 21 must die. A pox on the UN, the Cub of Rome, and the New World Order. Go to hell.

Be sure to stake it before burning, or it might come back.

Wow, that was short.

So what is the conclusion? People just tire of causes? I think people are generally smart enough to know if a cause is genuine and useful or beneficial.

What about the fourth stage, the reality that sets in when volcanoes in Hawaii and Guatemala undo in one week what liberals spent decades blaming humans for.

And yet globalist sellout GHW “daddy” Bush signed UN Agenda 21 in Brazil. America’s CFR/Goldman Sachs leadersip are into the New World Order up to their necks. The GOP-e has a long term goal of enriching international business interests at the expense of the US middle class worker. They want us all lower middle class “where we belong”.

Looking forward to the next money making, UN-Al Gore promotin’, con job hoax.

Perhaps if we don’t pay the UN taxes, garden gnomes will come alive. Pay them taxes and keep them from getting you. It makes you safe and for the children.

I think that Global Warming, or Climate Change, or whatever, is worth studying. Knowing what the general climate will be in 100 years might be worthwhile. It's usually beneficial to understand the processes of where we live.

But Destroying the global economy because of what might maybe possibly will happen in a century's time? Not worth it. Agree with you, people are fools for suggesting such things.

Unfortunately, we'll never know until we get there. The process has become too politicized for science to win the day.

IMO, my grandchildren will look at this time period and chuckle at the thought that we believed we could control the weather globally by driving a certain kind of car. Not unlike how we chuckle at the thought of snake oil salesmen 100 years ago, or medicinal leeches and bleeding, 200 years ago.

The real question at this point is: what’s the next money-making scam the scientific “establishment” is going to run?

My guess is we will be hearing a lot more about "ocean acidification".
This, of course, from idiots who couldn't give a simple definition of pH.

Environmental issues suffer this decline, because solving such issues involves painful trade-offs that committed climate activists would rather not make.

If the "committed climate activists" ever actually believed in the scam to begin with. I doubt they ever did; this was never more than a ploy to destroy the wealth and prosperity of the United States and to exterminate its independent middle class. If the elites pushing this scam/power play really believed it was a global threat, they wouldn't live as they do.

Their lifestyles prove they never believed it was real.
