The climate change narrative is clearly just another attempt by authoritarian ideologues to gain political control through baseless fear. We know global climate changes. Earth has been in a warming trend for thousands of years absent burning of fossil fuels, one of a great many such cycles in Earth's history. Since humans started burning fossil fuels atmospheric CO2 has only increased by about 140 ppm, or 1.4 parts in 10,000; a trace amount. Furthermore Earth's climate can change very rapidly absent human activity. At the location of Seattle's Space Needle a sheet of ice 5 times the landmark's height blanketed the site just 17,000 years ago, an eyeblink in Earth's history. The climate subsequently changed so dramatically and rapidly that the location was free of permanent ice a mere 800 years later (research the Vashon Stade). Marginal melting of contemporary glaciers due to natural climate change over the last 100 years comes as no surprise.

We must not let a self serving budding global tyranny commit this fraud. Education, and our intellects, must be employed to counter manipulative deceptions such as the climate narrative.

Interesting, I only woke up the the climate scam because of covid. My background is in biology so it was pretty obvious, but I noticed exactly the same tactics between the two.

Climate change will rectify it self when all chickens are registered with the proper authorities. WHO was that again???

Unfortunately, the climate crisis cult is probably too entrenched now for things to change much by public pressure. Most governments and corporations have been completely captured by the eco-scam perpetrated by the elites intent on world domination. The climate narrative is just part of their plan for global control and wealth transfers. Civil unrest will follow when citizens realise what is happening (CBDCs, 15 minute cities, food shortages etc) Interesting and worrying times, for young people in particular.

I dearly hope the strident tones of your epistles make an impression.

The jury should most definitely still be out on 'climate change'. It's not my specialist subject but even I can see that such factors as solar irradiance and vulcanism haven't been considered properly or at all. The work of Zharkova and her colleagues on solar activity strongly suggests planetary cooling over the next few decades. Time will tell. Hold on to your fur hats, folks!

I fully expect that if the planetary temperature does indeed drop then it will be put down to the tireless efforts of our brave, prescient political leaders.

Also would they be doing this if concerned about rising sea levels and co2 ?

I think the intention is to destroy western nations to create a more equitable world which is also much easier to control. Media repeatedly now calling on western nations to pay poor nations for causing the climate crisis. Blaming citizens for their lifestyles when it is the elites and large corporations who have made trillions off of cheap energy.

No need to worry about fuel shortages with climate catastrophism. We'll have plenty of fuel burning down the Parliament, Capital building, homes of MP's and legislators. Also their Euros and Dollar bills. Should be a nice bonfire of the vanities.

If your home isn't 'green' enough, suitably insulated and all other things to save energy, they are proposing after inspection that you retrofit to bring up to standard. If you don't or can't due to costs, they will down grade it, make it impossible to get mortgage on too. I'm probably correct that huge noncompliance fines could be imposed giving you no option but to walk away with nothing.

'Fraid the global warming fraud was abundantly self evident from the mid 1990's as an ideological Trojan horse. In 1999 when Mann et al. published their falsified polemic, the hockey schtick the IPCC really took off, seguing from falsified global warming to unfalsifiable climate change™, an imperative move given the inconvenient 17 year "pause" among many other things. Since then, the criminals in various official bureaucratic met entities around the world have been fiddling the data shamelesly to fit the narrative. Climate Change™ is defined and predicated upon the consequences of ANY direct/indirect anthropogenic influence on atmospheric composition and/or land usage. The definition furnishes infinite justification to meddle infinitely with the lives of people (if we allow it). Reductio ad absurdum ~ Zeroing climate change™ ~ would require the expunging of humanity altogether, clearly the mutual goal of a clutch of deranged Gaia zealots and Malthusian maniacs.

USA are trying local state legislation disruption tactics. I think we in UK need to do similar. Do these fools, useful idiots etc not realise that once tjey have served their purpose they are dispensable? "Laudable green city bollox". They are committing suicide.

With regard to rationing, our good friend John Dee showed that 2020 lockdowns had absolutely no impact on atmospheric CO2 measured at the Mauna Loe observatory in Hawaii.

The Everything Crisis

THE ANATOMY OF A SUPER-BUST

Introduction

Even the most cursory glance at economic and financial history will reveal a litany of bubbles and booms, crashes and crises. We’ve seen numerous instances of speculative manias, real estate bubbles, market collapses and banking crises. Even the dot-com bubble of 1995-2000 wasn’t really ‘a first’, since there’s at least one previous instance – the Railway Mania of the 1840s – of the public being blinded to reality by the glittering allure of the latest vogue in technology.

You’d be wrong, though, if you concluded that “there’s nothing new under the Sun” about what we’re experiencing now. The coming crunch – for which the best shorthand term might be ‘the everything crisis’ – sets new precedents in at least two ways.

First, it’s unusual for all of the various forms of financial crises to happen at the same time. Even the global financial crisis (GFC) of 2008-09 wasn’t an ‘everything crisis’. Now, though, it’s quite possible that we’re experiencing the start of a combined stock, property, banking, financial, economic and technological crisis, with ‘everything happening at once’.

Second, all previous crises have occurred at times when secular (non-cyclical) economic growth remained feasible. This enabled us to ‘grow out of’ these crises, much as youngsters ‘grow out of’ childhood ailments.

No such possibility now exists.

Our world is now being led by the obtuse. Mrs. Gump had it right: "Stupid is as Stupid does."

Loved your very well researched letter. I wish it would help.

This is a good summation of so much that is wrong these days. It needs to be sent to every MP in this country (UK). With UK local elections coming up in May, it's impossible to know how to vote when it comes to Net Zero policies - it seems to me that they're all in it together when it comes to anything to do with all of this. I despair sometimes...
