Dangers of the Global Warming Hoax

Dangers of the Global Warming Hoax

I care greatly about the world we will leave our descendants. Therefore, I am frightened by the widespread belief in a hoax that destroys the promise of science and exists solely to bring about vastly increased social control. One need look no further than the DEIR for our General Plan for proof. Some people go as far as to claim that, in the name of preventing climate change, we are poisoning the entire earth forever through geo engineering. But many are susceptible to this global falsehood because, as a now atheistic society, we have simply adopted a secular version of the apocalyptic vision of our traditional faiths.

CO2 is good. It feeds the plants and deserts are now blooming because we have a bit more. During the Medieval Warming Period, which the hoaxers are trying to hide, Greenland was green, the English grew wine grapes and bountiful harvests were good times for all. Nothing bad happened. But the climate became cold as witnessed by Dickens’s descriptions of the frozen Thames. These are natural cycles that have nothing to do with how many factories or campfires we have. Climate is separate from weather.

Our current drought is weather. But whatever one’s beliefs, we can all be proud of our county’s energy conservation. Kirkwood got rid of diesel power generation and joined the grid. The gravity supply line saves almost $300,000 in PG&E expense. That was accomplished by defeating those of the progressive viewpoint.

That viewpoint is expressed in a quote from D. Norman’s latest post: “Lincoln Mitchell, a human rights adviser to Columbia University, wrote in a blog post for the Huffington Post, ‘climate change was not solely caused by evil polluters, but by a species that, in large part, has for centuries been deeply committed to making, buying and selling things. For much of the time we did those things, nobody thought about long-term environmental impact.’ ”

Once again the environmental assumption that we are an intrusion to the natural world is repeated. I find this belief to be a very empty and lonely spiritual position.  Exchange has been the basis for human interaction since very primitive times. Of course, we would have less “environmental impact” if we lived in caves and wore animal skins. However, our life expectancy would be about 30 years and there would be other inconveniences.
