Climate Foolishness Out, Industry In

The Greens will be spewing, but the trend now is to rollback all the net-zero nonsense and get back to making stuff, and using clean, efficient energy derived from coal, natural gas, and nuclear. Add to that hydro and geothermal where possible. 

Something we are not going to able to do is power an industrial economy using solar and wind. That's because the energy from these sources is far too dispersed. These sources of energy are uneconomic.

Get with the programme, industrialise.

The Environmental Protection Agency or EPA's new rule cancels a 2009 "endangerment finding" which says that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare. The Obama-finding is the legal basis for most climate rules under the Clean Air Act covering emissions from cars, power plants and other sources that warm the planet. Court challenges are expected.

The repeal wipes out all greenhouse gas standards for cars and trucks and could open the door to rolling back on rules on power plants and oil and gas sites, according to experts.

Climate Catastrophe

Just playing around, totally unscientific this, but having a look at temperatures on Earth over the last few million years, what is all the panic about?

Below you'll see I've drawn on a graph, two lines, the orange one to my thinking is the ideal temperature for humans on Earth, while the black vertical line indicates 5 million years ago. Since then, we've always been colder, but right now we appear to be in the hottie goodie zone, ideal for plant life and mammals. 

Basically, drill baby drill.

Unscientific Musing/Ideal Temperature Range

Jimmy Dore on Bill Gates

Hehe, Jimmy Dore on Bill Gates climb down.

Maybe we should tax Bill Gates and take all of his money off him, to compensate for all the policies governments have adopted, that he promoted, that have resulted in people's lives being ruined.

Global Emissions

Global emissions continue to rise, and there is nothing that can be done about it. That's because two regions are developing fast and they're not going to give up their futures for everyone else, and nor should they.

Here's a couple of graphs to illustrate, the first being global emissions of carbon dioxide worldwide:

Emissions have steadily increased, becoming steeper exponentially. The only small downticks are when there is a recession, and other exceptional events.

Then, let's look at how these emissions appear when broken down by region:

If we study these regions carefully, we quickly see that China and the rest of Asia (excluding China and India) account for most of the increase. But, I'd suggest not getting too proud of yourselves in Europe or North America as their reductions I suspect are largely due to offshoring, or moving production to Asia and China. 

So, emitters that matter are: China, Asia (excluding China and India), North America, and Europe.

What can be done? Well, consume less would be a start, and when that's done, use civil engineering, soil science and the like to deal with the changes occurring.

Blaming tourists and giving them a guilt trip over their carbon miles is simply a deflection at best, or at worst it is sending consumers in a direction whereby they're fleeced by unscrupulous businesses. Likewise, greenwashing by companies is all PR, nothing more than that. 

Why can nothing be done? Does any sane individual think more than two billion people will change their behaviour when that behaviour is counter to their own progress? Yeah, give it up, stop with the delusions. 

Net Zero Pipe Dream

 Finally a mainstream politician has announced that net zero 2050 is impossible. 

Carbon Hysteria

I found the following article interesting and funny. The person being interviewed thinks a new religion is emerging, based around ecology and saving the planet. It has become heresy to question climate change or its causes, and carbon has become the new evil doer. I talk about this new religion in my book Snob's Guide to New Zealand. 

Here's the interview: https://internationalman.com/articles/doug-casey-on-why-the-carbon-hysteria-is-a-huge-threat-to-your-personal-freedom-and-financial-wellbeing/

Look, this is all about politics and money, but disguised as a religious movement, which is quite clever. There’s no question that Greenism is being promoted as a new religion.

Christianity is a dead duck in Europe, and it’s dying in North America. But people need some type of religion, a replacement for Christianity, to hold on to.

People will be encouraged to treat their taxes as tithes to wash away their sins against Mother Nature—much the way they tithed the church to expunge their sins in the Middle Ages. It’s an exact analogy. They’ll buy “carbon credits” as an analog for building cathedrals and monasteries.

Carbon Passports

How long will it take before you become the carbon they want to reduce?

Their ideal world is digitized, downsized, dehumanized, depopulated and generally feudal in nature. If they succeed in imposing their ideal system on the world, we will see millions starved to death by their war on food and farmers. Thank God the farmers in Europe have awakened to the real purpose of the climate scam, which is to destroy their livelihoods and their ability to feed the world. If these globalist scum succeed, most of us will not live to see 2040. And those who manage to survive in their dehumanized, top-down, control-grid society will be either rich or poor, with very little in between. This is a war on the middle class, on traditional values, on the value of work and the nuclear family.

Embrace Climate Change, Save Lives

Temperatures are rising worldwide. That's a good thing according to Bjørn Lomborg:

 

Exposing the Climate Scam

This woman makes a concise argument and in so doing, destroys the whole argument promoting the Green energy industry:
