Zero Hedge

Very good discussion from some respected scientists on the historical significance of this summer heat. Also discusses the motivations of climate alarmists.

I don’t reproduce entire articles, so theres a lot more in there worth reading. But here’s the last paragraph:

"The weather is changing all the time, and human beings have something to do with it. We're in a warming period—it's warmed up a little bit—but that's been mostly beneficial.”

All of the talk is useless if the policy proposals cannot meaningfully lower the temperature of the earth.

They cannot. Not even close. Discussion should be over.

We will have to adapt as we always have. It’s not likely apocalyptic.

Climate change isn't even in the top 10 of my concerns.

Anybody that says the weather hasn’t been changing at a constant rate over the earth’s existence is a moron.

However, doubting that it’s largely because of man made pollutants is more than reasonable. The majority of climate alarmists are nothing more than individuals protecting their funding and egos.

No different than any other establishment professionals that refuse to entertain new evidence or other hypothesis.

The alarmists are drama queens, they'll survive.

Mine either.

An economic meltdown will kill more people than climate change.

I care more about the destruction of our currency and the changes being proposed or put in place over climate hysteria than any actual changes in the weather

I enjoy reading about the demise of early civilizations and how they had massive droughts and floods and hurricanes and weather events that decimated food sources causing their population to dwindle

Long before industrial revolution and air conditioning and fossil fuel powered cars

Guess we should’ve raised the taxes on those civilizations 1,000 years ago.. that would’ve definitely stopped it then too right. ????

The fact that this is being done outside of the legislative process and is guided largely by unelected entities and people should be the concern of everyone.

What IS apocalyptic is some of the measures the left wants to force us into doing as a means to combat the "climate emergency"

Only the boostered mudbloods still trust government funded science on climate change.

Mr. Christy responded to a question about the messaging of the June and July temperatures:
"Every summer will see exceptionally hot temperatures somewhere. If it bleeds, it leads. A thorough look, however, at the frequency of hottest extremes indicates little relation to the gradual warming of the Earth, at least for the U.S., where we have the best observations to test these claims."

Mr. Ebell was less diplomatic, "[Climate alarmists] want to scare us into adopting expensive, pointless policies."



He said that the Biden administration and climate alarmists aren't "getting what they want" because the general population doesn't support their extreme green energy and climate crisis agenda. Consequently, they turn up the rhetoric.


"You exaggerate the effects of global warming, the scare stories about storms and hot weather, and then you downplay the cost—try to explain it's really not going to cost anything because the government will pay for it," Mr. Ebell said.





These guys are based.

Myron Ebell is not well respected or even a scientist. He is a propogandist with a right wing think tank.
