Before we condemn a billion people in Asia and a billion people in Africa to abject poverty, we should be reasonably sure such action is absolutely necessary to save the planet. We are far from sure...

"NASA satellite data from the years 2000 through 2011 show the Earth's atmosphere is allowing far more heat to be released into space than alarmist computer models have predicted, reports a new study in the peer-reviewed science journal Remote Sensing. The study indicates far less future global warming will occur than United Nations computer models have predicted, and supports prior studies indicating increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide trap far less heat than alarmists have claimed.
...
In addition to finding that far less heat is being trapped than alarmist computer models have predicted, the NASA satellite data show the atmosphere begins shedding heat into space long before United Nations computer models predicted.
...
In short, the central premise of alarmist global warming theory is that carbon dioxide emissions should be directly and indirectly trapping a certain amount of heat in the earth's atmosphere and preventing it from escaping into space. Real-world measurements, however, show far less heat is being trapped in the earth's atmosphere than the alarmist computer models predict, and far more heat is escaping into space than the alarmist computer models predict.
When objective NASA satellite data, reported in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, show a "huge discrepancy" between alarmist climate models and real-world facts, climate scientists, the media and our elected officials would be wise to take notice. Whether or not they do so will tell us a great deal about how honest the purveyors of global warming alarmism truly are."

Don't think for a second anyone reading the things you put on your site believes you actually care about the welfare of people in Asia or Africa- let alone your own country.
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty obvious as far as your concerns or interests go, what you care about is upholding the ideological tenets of your fairly typical rich privileged white boy or "conservative" identity politics and everything that goes with it: crackpot economic theories, social resentments, class warfare against the poor and making propagandistic claims (or rather regurgitating) about what it is "the other side" says.
This is a good example of what you typically like to do, it is also predictably bouncing around all other discredited right wing writers and propaganda vehicles like Fox. It's especially rich of you to do so during a heat wave in New York that has claimed lives.
While it is true that if the data points to the notion that more heat may be shed into space than thought before, it has no bearing whatsoever on the fact that the earth's climate is in fact changing drastically- Sea levels are rising, desertification and deforestation are happening. There is in fact a concentration of aerosol gases in the atmosphere. All of this is having myriad unpredictable negative economic consequences. Nor does it at all suggest that these changes are not the result of anthropogenic activity. And it especially does nothing to disprove the reality that those who will bear the brunt of pain that will and is resulting are the global poor. It's easy not to think about that though, when your rich.
The suggestion that those saying we should explore alternative paths of economic development that maybe exclude exxon mobil are therefore "condemning billions of people to poverty" is just rank propaganda. Once black smoot covered the skies in England, you think some coal interest wasn't saying back then that anyone who thinks we should switch to gas is therefore "condemning billions to poverty"? they in fact were, as you are now just doing the 21st century version of just that.
If this is a little biting, im not really sorry. I think this type of thinking on the part of the fanatical right wing needs to be stood up to more. The economic effects after 30 years of rightward policy shift in the government have already come home to roost and its just enough.
