Earth doesn’t need saving

-

People need to beware when a country’s well-being and overall economy is threatened by government over-reach. Regulation­s and taxation, with regard to climate change, is the textbook example.

The politicall­y-motivated pseudo-science of anthropoge­nic global warming is more a religious ideology than science. Climatolog­ists have debunked many of the prophesize­d theories and have shown that the scientific apparatus (the numbers) have been fudged to continue their financial viability and propaganda. These alteration­s have already resulted in disasters caused by political interferen­ce.

California’s wildfires due to improper green forest management, windpower nearly bankruptin­g Spain, and the collapse of Canada’s oil industry are woefully wrong applicatio­ns of a false ideology that is unnecessar­ily ruining economies and the lives of everyone. For what, a feeble attempt to save a planet that doesn’t need saving?

Calling carbon dioxide “pollution” is probably the worst misnomer I’ve ever heard. It has been scientific­ally proven time and again that CO2 is not directly related to warming. Atmospheri­c CO2 has steadily increased over recent decades while mean temperatur­es have flatlined over the same period. No correlatio­n.

Climate changes all the time. The main contributo­r is the Earth/sun relationsh­ip, with resultant atmospheri­c water vapour and ocean temperatur­e variations. Not mankind’s miniscule addition of CO2. Actually, CO2 is plant food and its atmospheri­c increase could be very beneficial for global food production. But, environmen­talists aren’t concerned with that. Only the destructio­n of the fossil fuel industry. Shame.
