More than 500 scientists and professionals in climate and related fields have sent a “European Climate Declaration” to the Secretary-General of the United Nations asking for a long-overdue, high-level, open debate on climate change.
Just as 16-year-old Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg addressed the U.N. Climate Action Summit in New York accusing world leaders of robbing her of her future, scientists were begging the United Nations to keep hysteria from obscuring facts.
“Climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific,” the declaration states. “Scientists should openly address the uncertainties and exaggerations in their predictions of global warming, while politicians should dispassionately count the real benefits as well as the imagined costs of adaptation to global warming, and the real costs as well as the imagined benefits of mitigation.”
The scientists underscored the importance of not rushing into enormously expensive climate action before fully ascertaining the facts.
“There is no statistical evidence that global warming is intensifying hurricanes, floods, droughts and suchlike natural disasters, or making them more frequent,” they declared. “However, CO2-mitigation measures are as damaging as they are costly. For instance, wind turbines kill birds and bats, and palm-oil plantations destroy the biodiversity of the rainforests.”
The signatories of the declaration also insist that public policy must respect scientific and economic realities and not just reflect the most fashionable frenzy of the day.
“There is no climate emergency. Therefore, there is no cause for panic and alarm,” they note. “We strongly oppose the harmful and unrealistic net-zero CO2 policy proposed for 2050.”

But.... Alarmism is about “good intentions” if you are on the left.
Being wrong has nothing to do with it.
If you warn people about something and you’re on the right, they try to censor you for inducing a panic or conspiracy theory. Afterall, you can’t just “walk into a crowded theater and yell FIRE!”. (even if there is a fire).
The human race appears to be one large scale version of Charlie in the novel Flowers for Algernon. We have past our peak intellect and are now on our way back to being nukel draging moreons.
The mere presence of TRUMP walking through the room stole her thunder!
I love it!
I just read that, at 16 years of age, she is just a sophomore in school.
When I was 16, I was a Senior and graduated at 17.
Good article and we can soon expect these 500+ scientists to be looking for work.
A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots on.
Boots are on.
They’re likely not desperate for Grant Money.
She’ll be enrolled at Harvard soon.
She proves the fact that people will do/say absolutely anything for face-time on national/international media.... ANYTHING!
Her father is an actor....Bet he taught her to put her tongue in her cheek to look angry.
Feelings over facts.
But, but, but...THE SCIENCE IS SETTLED!!!
Too late!
They’ll reply: “Existential Threat! Existential Threat!
It’s all BS to institute global governance and taxation.
bkmk
If the UN became the World Government these scared kids would be conscripted into the UN’s Army to control trouble spots in the World
