“World must shift to solar & wind rapidly to avoid catastrophic global warming, say UN scientists”
NOT THIS SH.., er, uh, stuff again!!!
Not good news for the Audubon Club’s efforts to prevent the extinction of the Golden Earle in California.
Say the UN scientific quacks looking for $$$$
At the levels they want, I suspect that interrupting that much sunshine from impacting the earth, and bleeding off wind currents will actually have a chance of screwing up the earth (at least locally around the installations).
You know what the goo-goos say when it come to economics:
“We’re all going to be dead anyway.”? Well, there it is, Un.
Wow, being a UN scientist is a good job:

Up to 40 days vacation a year, no income tax and up to a couple hundred thousand $ a year.
Well, that would only be temporary, but afterwards, all the liberals would be happy....of course they’d also be dead.
I guess they learned they’re mistake with the “5 year” catastrophism; 15 years should see all the middle-aged doom mongers through to retirement at least.
I have no idea what that means, if it means anything, but I have sent in the paperwork to get a government grant to study it!
Names and addresses please.
Let China, India, Brazil, Russia,, Iran, and Africa lead the way.
As far as the US is concerned, maybe it is time to give the wealthy elites who say they believe in this crap a taste of what they are trying to impose on the rest of us. Let’s require every home in the US with a value of $5 million or more to be taken off the grid and required to use only solar and wind power generated on site. No backup generators permitted. The Hollywood leftists who live in Malibu might make out all right but those inland might find it less than comfortable at night when there is no wind. Certainly those on the upper West side will find solar panels on the rooftops of their condo and coop buildings don’t generate enough power.
Also ban private jets, make the limousine liberals fly commercial. Ban car services and private automobiles in Manhattan. Make the elites use public transportation. Ban use of government and private jets by all members of the federal bureaucracy and Congress. Let them fly commercial.
Build wind farms off Martha’s Vineyard, the Hamptons, Malibu, Palm Beach, Miami Beach, and Boca Raton. Cover the most exclusive country clubs in the US with solar panels. Eliminate first class on commercial flights.
Until they have to live with the consequences of their stupidity, they will keep piling it on. I realize there may be a few wealthy conservatives who would suffer, but I doubt it would be long.
Code for hey low brows give up your rights and dance to the beat of the facsist’s drum.
Is that the catastrophic warming of which we’ve recorded precisely zero degrees of of over the last two decades of global mean temperature monitoring? The same zero degrees of mean warming that has prompted desperate pleas for immediate action to stave off DOOM during every one of those years?
Or is it the catastrophic warning that the IPCC predicts won’t show up on the thermometer?
Perhaps it’s the catastrophic warming that the IPCC claims will cause global sea levels to rise 1.6cm a year over the next century? Despite sea levels rising at 7+cm per year on average since the end of the last glacial maximum, and nearly 3cm a year since the dawn of the industrial revolution. That 1.6cm total predicted MUST be catastrophic, and MUST be anthropogenic, it simply MUST be and if you don’t agree then you’re obviously a horrible evil person guilty of crimes against humanity.
Seriously people, predictive models that fail to predict reality are most likely based on flawed assumptions - one should go back and re-asses those assumptions and craft new models more likely to reflect observed reality. Failure to do so is a hallmark of, fascinatingly enough, both superstition and communism.
The climate science debate has been hijacked by both radical socialists intent on destroying productivity in the advanced world and radical gaia-hypothesis environmentalist whackjobs intent on destroying large numbers of human beings.
If we just paid more in taxes would these guys shut the hell up?
Climate change is a scam, but the UN needs that as a motive to roll out their Agenda 21. (Which is already being embraced by many planning and zoning commissions)
I wonder how many degrees in temp change a world full of mirrors would cause?
in 5 years we will have alternate power sources that will make solar farms look neanderthal.
in 15 years we will have even cooler power sources.
These global warming hystericals aren’t very forward-thinking.
In China those big wind farm areas suck all the energy from the winds....and reduce rainfall locally ...thus reducing food production.
Anyway...the Sun's magnetic field is in decline...so less sunspots are formed.
Expect the next ice age to kick in around 2016/17.
Algor said it would be “too late” in 2008, IIRC.
