Man-made climate change a scientific hoax

It is absolutely correct to say that human activity has a miniscule effect on climate. Anthropogenic Climate Change is a colossal hoax.

In fact, it is the biggest scientific fraud that has ever occurred.

There is no need for new scientific investigation. Existing facts and simple math prove the case.

1. The “greenhouse effect” in the atmosphere enables all life on earth – animal and vegetable.

2. There IS consensus among climage scientists that at least 95 per cent of the greenhouse effect is caused by the water vapour in the atmosphere – clouds, fogs, mists, etc. One study found it was 97 per cent, but let’s stay with 95 per cent.

3. The remaining five per cent is caused by four dry gases – carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and fluorocarbons. Carbon dioxide is the most important, constituting about 80 per cent of the dry gases’ contribution to the greenhouse effect, this four per cent of the total.

4. Ninety-five per cent of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere comes from natural causes – mainly the oceans, but also volcanoes (remember the Iceland volcano? In four days, it spewed as much nastiness, including CO2, into the atmosphere as all the cars, trains, plane, power plants and factories did in five years!), rotting vegetation and animal exhalations.

5. The remaining five per cent of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere comes from humans burning fossil fuels.

6. Simply do the math – five per cent of four per cent equals 0.2 per cent, a fifth of one per cent of the atmosphere comes from humans burning fossil fuels.

Furthermore, carbon dioxide is a nutrient – it stimulates plant growth.

Incredibly, our university students have become so brain-dirtied that they won’t even entertain a presentation of the facts. I sent the Trent University Conservative club a copy of my presentation and it was opened, resealed and “returned to sender.”

Perhaps understandable from the Liberal Socialist Democrat socialist clubs, but Conservatives! Charles Coon Hastings
