With Joe Biden ramping up the greenie ideology, the history of global warming is worth another look.
All you need to know to understand that the conspiracy is false is to see that the Earth had a substantial, lengthy cooling period from 1945 to 1975.
On the first Earth Day in 1970, after 25 years of cooling, people were scared to death about dire forecasts by "experts," without any scientific data supporting their predictions, that billions would soon freeze and die of starvation because of a new ice age. The media participated in scaring the public. The predictions were 100% wrong because a little warming resumed as it always does.
By 1970, there had been around 100 years of exponential growth in oil and coal consumption, the population had risen by several hundred percent, and CO2 content had increased substantially. Cars, trucks, planes, combines, tractors, TVs, air-conditioners, furnaces, and computers had been invented. Most houses now had electricity.
Yet the Earth was cooling so much that billions would die because of cooling despite all these inventions that supposedly cause warming. A child could understand that if a significant period of cooling occurred, oil and humans did not cause warming. But the cultists don't care about facts or science when they are pushing their radical leftist agenda to destroy jobs and America.

7. Define/explain past glaciation and subsequent warming without any input from humans.
What is the warmists’ falsifiable hypothesis?
I remind people all the time about how we barely survived the Ice Age of the 1970’ that was caused by pollution from burning petroleum products. Hell it didn’t really end until the early 1980’s until they decided all that pollution from burning petroleum products was really causing Global Warming. For the next 30 plus years the Global Warming remained FLAT so now we call it Climate Change.
There might be something to this Climate Change thingy, when I left my house in the mountains this Morning it was 35 degrees outside, but by the time I got to my shop near sea level it had warmed up to 48 degrees?
It is false that man can control the cycles of the sun.
I agree 100%.
And even if the politically correct, government manufactured (imo) crisis of global warming is provable by repeatable results of scientific method-based experiments, it remains that the states have never expressly constitutionally given the corrupt, Democratic-stolen federal government the specific power to dictate, regulate, tax and spend in the name of global warming issues.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
This particular episode focuses on Venus, a planet that has always intrigued me because its dense cloud cover makes it such a mystery.
I should’ve guessed; as the episode wore on I learned the surface temperature on Venus is approximately 900°F due to greenhouse gases and global warming.
And guess what? If we don’t do something soon, Earth will become another Venus!
So, rather than an interesting program detailing what we know about our sister planet, I got a lecture on global warming.
Please use the correct name: Global warming theory.
All this nonsense over a theory, so govt can assert control over every facet of our lives
Me, I don’t use “it” at all. 😂
Consider...CO2 exists in our atmosphere as a TRACE had at about 615 parts per MILLION. Most CO2 comes from natural sources. CO2 is essential for life on this planet and is used as food by every green plant from single celled alge to giant redwood trees. Human activity accounts for only a few parts per million of CO2. Does it make any sense that the entire climate of the planet is hinged on a few parts per million of a single trace gas and that other factors like the variations in solar output or the wobble in the tilt of the earth’s axis relative to the sun have no effect on climate?
415 ppm.
