Global Warming A Good Thing : World Prosperity & Individual Freedom

Climate change is a good thing - the world prospers. This is one of the reason why the eco-fascists environmentalists and progressive socialist Democrats are fighting so hard to stop countries and individuals from prosperity. Prosperity kills socialism.

The fact that there is no 'man-made global warming' is of little interest, what is important is making the case for 'man-made warming' so billions of tax dollars can be drained from the national treasury into the pockets of the warmers, and thereby gain power and control over the population with continued reports of disaster if the money stops coming in for more research.

The worst part of all this is a majority of the world population is to slow or stupid to see the lie even in the face of researchers that were shown to have falsified their graphs and findings to make their point.

Remember the 'Hockey Stick' graph that started the whole mess? A lie! Researchers in England changed the figures to match their desired outcomes. Remember the emails between the researchers that were posted for all to see how they could make the facts match their claims so they decided to change the figures to match outcomes?

Remember Dan Rather reporting on George Bush's National Guard service? Case in point - He knew it wasn't true but he believed it 'should be', so he went ahead and reported it as true. He, like all of his colleagues in the main stream press, believe it's the 'seriousness of the charge' that is most important, not the facts that make the headlines and change peoples thinking.

It always worked well in the past to change the story line momentum to meet the progressive socialist Democrat agenda, but the Internet brought new light to progressive tactics of story telling.

And so it has also for the global warmers and the climate changers.

The Benefits of Climate Change

Climate change has done more good than harm so far and is likely to continue doing so for most of this century. This is not a right-wing fantasy; it is the consensus of expert opinion. Yet almost nobody seems to know this, says British scientist and journalist Matt Ridley.

• The chief benefits of global warming include: fewer winter deaths; lower energy costs; better agricultural yields; probably fewer droughts; maybe richer biodiversity.
• It is a little-known fact that winter deaths exceed summer deaths.

There are many likely effects of climate change: positive and negative, economic and ecological, humanitarian and financial. And if you aggregate them all, the overall effect is positive today -- and likely to stay positive until around 2080. That was the conclusion of Professor Richard Tol of Sussex University after he reviewed 14 different studies of the effects of future climate trends.

• Overall, Tol finds that climate change in the past century improved human welfare.
• He calculates the improvement has been 1.4 percent of global economic output, rising to 1.5 percent by 2025.
• For some people, this means the difference between survival and starvation.

The greatest benefit from climate change comes not from temperature change but from carbon dioxide itself. It is not pollution, but the raw material from which plants make carbohydrates and thereafter proteins and fats. As it is an extremely rare trace gas in the air -- less than 0.04 per cent of the air on average -- plants struggle to absorb enough of it.

Even polar bears are thriving so far. It's worth noting that the three years with the lowest polar bear cub survival in the western Hudson Bay (1974, 1984 and 1992) were the years when the sea ice was too thick for ringed seals to appear in good numbers in spring. Bears need broken ice.

Building wind turbines, growing biofuels and substituting wood for coal in power stations -- all policies designed explicitly to fight climate change -- have had negligible effects on carbon dioxide emissions. But they have driven people into fuel poverty, made industries uncompetitive, driven up food prices, accelerated the destruction of forests, killed rare birds of prey, and divided communities.

So we are doing real harm now to impede a change that will produce net benefits for 70 years.
