saw a great tweet: "There wouldn't be so many climate skeptics if there weren't so many climate liars" 
[h=3]500 Scientists: “There Is No Climate Emergency”[/h][FONT="]

More than 500 scientists and professionals in related fields sent the Secretary-General of the United Nations an urgent message: “there’s no climate emergency.”
“There is no statistical evidence that global warming is intensifying hurricanes, floods, droughts and suchlike natural disasters, or making them more frequent,” the European Climate Declaration stated. “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 general-circulation models of climate on which international policy is at present founded are unfit for their purpose,” the Declaration states. “Therefore, it is cruel as well as imprudent to advocate the squandering of trillions on the basis of results from such immature models. Current climate policies pointlessly, grievously undermine the economic system, putting lives at risk in countries denied access to affordable, continuous electrical power.”
The scientists invited the Secretary-General of the United Nations to participate in a “constructive” debate early in 2020.
Signees of the declaration include:
Professor Guus Berkhout – The Netherlands
Professor Richard Lindzen – USA
Professor Reynald Du Berger – French Canada
Professor Ingemar Nordin – Sweden
Terry Dunleavy – New Zealand
Jim O’Brien – Rep. of Ireland
Viv Forbes – Australia
Professor Alberto Prestininzi – Italy
Professor Jeffrey Foss – English Canada
Professor Benoît Rittaud – France
Morten Jødal – Norway
Professor Fritz Vahrenholt – Germany
Rob Lemeire – Belgium
The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley – UK

Bullet points from the “European Climate Declaration” are also below.
- There is no climate emergency A global network of 500 scientists and professionals has prepared this urgent message. Climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific. 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.
- Natural as well as anthropogenic factors cause warming. The geological archive reveals that Earth’s climate has varied as long as the planet has existed, with natural cold and warm phases. The Little Ice Age ended as recently as 1850. Therefore, it is no surprise that we now are experiencing a period of warming.
- Warming is far slower than predicted. The world has warmed at less than half the originally-predicted rate, and at less than half the rate to be expected on the basis of net anthropogenic forcing and radiative imbalance. It tells us that we are far from understanding climate change.
- Climate policy relies on inadequate models. Climate models have many shortcomings and are not remotely plausible as policy tools. Moreover, they most likely exaggerate the effect of greenhouse gases such as CO2. In addition, they ignore the fact that enriching the atmosphere with CO2 is beneficial.
- CO2 is plant food, the basis of all life on Earth. CO2 is not a pollutant. It is essential to all life on Earth. Photosynthesis is a blessing. More CO2 is beneficial for nature, greening the Earth: additional CO2 in the air has promoted growth in global plant biomass. It is also good for agriculture, increasing the yields of crop worldwide.
- Global warming has not increased natural disasters. There is no statistical evidence that global warming is intensifying hurricanes, floods, droughts and suchlike natural disasters, or making them more frequent. 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.
- Policy must respect scientific and economic realities. There is no climate emergency. Therefore, there is no cause for panic and alarm. We strongly oppose the harmful and unrealistic net-zero CO2 policy proposed for 2050. If better approaches emerge, and they certainly will, we have ample time to reflect and adapt. The aim of international policy should be to provide reliable and affordable energy at all times, and throughout the world
3 months after the media ran in shock and horror that GREENLAND IS ON FIRE the, ahemm, scientists come clean that they were off by at least 10-12 degrees Fahrenheit.
Ha ha, apparently...and stick with me here...the snow was so dense that the thermometers weren't properly ventilated causing the double digits increase in registered temps. Did I mention science? Holy fuck!!!

[h=1]Why It’s Hard to Take Global Warming Hysteria Seriously[/h]
Count on the New York Times’ opinion pages to promote American decline and ongoing victimhood. In Sunday’s example, a global warming hysteric named Carey Buckley wrings her hands out of a deep sense of “climate crisis grief.”
She has it really bad! She “feels complicit by merely existing.” When Buckley sees a new baby, she doesn’t light up with joy but “flashes to the approximately 15 tons of carbon emissions the average American emits each year.” She hates humanity “for being the species taking all the others down.”
Gosh. One would think that Buckley would become a climate monastic. But no. It’s mostly tepid symbolism. From, “Apocalypse Got You Down?”
Buckley decides her only hope is to learn how to live with herself and the rest of us. She goes into deep research and reaches a life-changing conclusion:
I’m sorry, I can’t take any of this seriously. Climate prophets of doom like Buckley, Thunberg — who is having an excellent adventure any teenager would envy — and the multi-housed Al Gore sure don’t give me any sense that we really face apocalypse. This is not how people act who actually believe collapse is nigh.
Whatever gets you through the night, I guess. But if we ever let the Buckley types take over and cause real decline, we will all experience true climate change grief.

As much as I want to chain myself to an old-growth tree, my job at The Times precludes me from going all in as an activist. So I donate to environmental and humane causes, eat vegan, compost, take public transport, carry around bamboo utensils, post alarming articles on Facebook, buy second hand and stock up on offsets — all decisions I have the luxury to make. And yet none of it has been balm.
Oh, and, she flew to Alaska to go kayaking:
Finally this fall, after a kayaking trip to Alaska prompted by a desire to see glaciers while they still exist — and being greeted by wildfires — I resolved to seek answers.
These people have no sense of irony. Global warming hysteric guru Greta Thunberg is currently cruising back to Europe on a modern catamaran made out of petroleum products and powered by diesel engines.
Buckley decides her only hope is to learn how to live with herself and the rest of us. She goes into deep research and reaches a life-changing conclusion:
Embrace the pain, but don’t stop there…The key is to channel it, through everyday actions or joining wider movements, and also to figure out a way to face it without being controlled by it, because operating out of fear, anger and blame burns us out. That is where the spiritual component comes in — to find a way to move to a place not of tacit acceptance, but of fierce, roaring compassion.
Not just compassion, but “fierce compassion.” Have you noticed that people of this ilk really like the word, “fierce?”
Buckley attends a seminar on how to cope where the facilitator advises being grateful for what each participant has now:
“I’m grateful about being alive in this time because,” I said haltingly to my partner, a man who worked in corporate disaster preparedness, “people are more aware than ever about what we have wrought? Because this is the logical conclusion to what the industrial revolution set in motion?”
“Wow,” the disaster preparedness guy replied.
Yeah, I know what he means.“Wow,” the disaster preparedness guy replied.
I’m sorry, I can’t take any of this seriously. Climate prophets of doom like Buckley, Thunberg — who is having an excellent adventure any teenager would envy — and the multi-housed Al Gore sure don’t give me any sense that we really face apocalypse. This is not how people act who actually believe collapse is nigh.

It’s kind of sad. The more I see of the “climate crisis” movement, the more it seems to be a home for people desperately searching for meaning who feel very guilty because they have it so good.Whatever gets you through the night, I guess. But if we ever let the Buckley types take over and cause real decline, we will all experience true climate change grief.

Lefties tell us about all the cataclysmic climate events that are about to make us fear their God
You're just citing a bunch of deniers
And in Libtardville, I just " debunked" your argument
I'll give them credit, they are a persistent bunch.
Climate change alarmists are pushing for a change in vocabulary to scare people into taking global warming
more seriously, starting with terms like “global meltdown” and “climate collapse.”
Writing for AdAge this week, Aaron Hall argues that in order to get people to “take action” against climate
change, “rebranding” is crucial, since people have gotten too used to the idea that climate is changing and
need to be shocked into the notion that the world as we know it is ending.
Gore must be proud. His minions are still carrying the torch while he keeps making money.

John Kerry Recruits Bill Clinton, Leonardo DiCaprio for New Climate Coalition
Former Secretary of State John Kerry on Saturday announced the launch “World War Zero,” a star-studded coalition of former heads of state and Hollywood figures dedicated to advocating for solutions to climate change.
The forthcoming organization’s website states their chief objective is to mobilize resources to tackle global warming in a way akin to the Western allies in World War II.
The New York Times reports that John Kerry, who served as a senator in Massachusetts from 1985 to 2013, has recruited former Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter and former Republican governors John Kasich and Arnold Schwarzenegger. A-listers such as actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Ashton Kutcher, and rocker Sting are also on board. Over 60 figures are said to have signed up for the coalition.
“We’re going to try to reach millions of people, Americans and people in other parts of the world, in order to mobilize an army of people who are going to demand action now on climate change sufficient to meet the challenge,” Kerry said in an interview with the Times.
Kerry has been an outspoken critic of the Trump administration’s environmental policies, calling them “profoundly dangerous” for the planet, and has repeatedly criticized the president’s removal of the U.S. from the 2016 Paris Agreement.
Future generations will measure us by whether we acted on facts, not just debated or denied them. The verdict will hang on whether we put in place policies that will drive the development and deployment of clean technologies, re-energize our economies, and tackle global climate change,” the Obama-era official wrote in an opinion-editorial for the Times last year. “Every day that goes by that we’re paralyzed by the Luddite in the White House is a day in the future that our grandchildren will suffer.”
Last November, Kerry told The Guardian that “people are going to die” with the U.S. no longer a part of the Paris patch. “My kids and my grandkids are going to face a difficult world because of what Donald Trump has done,” he told the British newspaper.
