Global Warmers Stealing Our Future : It's All About Control

I don't get it - why all the hand wringing over man made global warming when none exists? Why do many among us insist the global warming will destroy the planet when their proof comes from computer models they themselves admit are flawed?

Why would anyone, that can read or watch television, believe the nonsense of man made global warming when the very institutions that have been at the forefront of the this insanity have been shown, beyond a shadow of a doubt in word and deed and emails, to have lied, from the beginning, about their finding?

What the eco-fascist environmentalists, domestic urban terrorists, want is money and control. And it doesn't take a lot of intelligence to understand why the eco-fascists and the progressive socialist left Democrats are in bed together. Actually, they are one and the same. They both believe that the people are just tools to be used or abused to get what they want. Remember the motto of the progressive liberal is 'by any means necessary'.

Believe, there is no amount of facts that anyone can present to prove them wrong as this isn't about science or truth, this is about power to control outcomes. It's about taking power from the people to decide for themselves what their destinies will be, and transferring it to the elite few who believe they are smarter and better equipped to make decisions. Control and starve the population of energy resources will change how families conduct their personal lives, eventually resulting in a population with no recourse but dependence. 

Tragically it's working as anyone can witness as the majority electing and reelecting the leader of the elite few. Who would have ever believed so many Americans would be so willing to give up freedom for a bowl of soup? 

The Cost of Global Warming Policies

On September 26, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will present the summary of its most recent assessment report, the fifth in 23 years. Although the IPCC is not perfect -- it famously predicted that all Himalayan glaciers would be gone in 2035, when the more likely year is 2350 -- its many experts generally give us the best information on the fractious issue of global warming, says Bjorn Lomborg, an adjunct professor at the Copenhagen Business School and director of the Copenhagen Consensus Center.

Though the IPCC, according to its own principles, is a policy-neutral organization, its head, Rajendra Pachauri, will explicitly feed the frenzy by insisting that "humanity has pushed the world's climate system to the brink," and that we need to complete a "transition away from fossil fuels," maybe with some kind of "price of carbon."

As a result, the likely outcome of the report's release will be more of the same: a welter of scary scenarios, followed by politicians promising huge carbon cuts and expensive policies that have virtually no impact on climate change.
Maybe we should try to alter this scenario. We should accept that there is global warming. But we should also accept that current policies are costly and have little upside.
  • The European Union will pay $250 billion for its current climate policies each and every year for 87 years.
  • For almost $20 trillion, temperatures by the end of the century will be reduced by a negligible 0.05 degrees Celsius.
The current green energy technologies still cost far too much and produce far too little to replace existing energy sources. To insist on buying these expensive non-solutions is to put the cart before the horse. What we need is investment in research and development to reduce green energy's cost and boost its scale. When solar and other green technologies can take over cheaply, we will have addressed global warming -- without the angst.
