It appears the psychosis on global warming or criminate change is wide spread and total, infecting many that should know better. Even after decades of history on climate change has shown that there is no man made climate change, but the progressive socialists democrats and fascist environmentalists still demand year after year more money to save us all.
Worse yet, the polls all show by a huge margin there is no support by the general public for spending more money on this insanity that has been proven a scam to steal tax dollar by the billions that line the pockets of only a select few. The theft is world wide.
Despite Steady Temperatures, Policymakers Plow Forward with Climate Change Agenda

While pundits continue to talk about the dangers of global warming, the globe actually hasn't seen warming since 1998, says Institute for Energy Research CEO Robert Bradley. Despite increases in carbon dioxide emissions, Bradley notes that the world has not seen the explosion in extreme weather events, famine or loss of ice forecast by warming activists. In fact, he cites research from scientist Roy Spencer who analyzed 90 different climate models and found that 95 percent of climate simulations have overestimated warming since 1979.
Despite this reality, Bradley says lawmakers and government actors are doubling down on global warming policies:
When it comes to global warming, policymakers are out of touch with reality, as well as out of touch with everyday voters -- Bradley notes that just 3 percent of voters identified climate change as the United States' biggest concern in a recent Reuters poll.
Despite this reality, Bradley says lawmakers and government actors are doubling down on global warming policies:
- The United Nations is working on a global agreement to combat warming by limiting greenhouse gas emissions.
- The United States and China recently entered into an agreement that could require U.S. carbon emissions to fall by 28 percent below 2005 levels.
- The EPA is plowing forward with its Clean Power Plan rules to limit carbon emissions from coal-fired power plants. Research firm Energy Ventures Analysis says the plan would increase customers' household energy costs by 35 percent between 2012 and 2020.
- President Obama has refused to approve the Keystone XL pipeline out of concerns about the environment, despite a State Department report concluding the pipeline will have no impact on emissions.
- Senators Sheldon Whitehouse (D-N.H.) and Brian Schatz (D-HI) have introduced a $2 trillion tax bill that would tax carbon emissions at $42 per ton.
When it comes to global warming, policymakers are out of touch with reality, as well as out of touch with everyday voters -- Bradley notes that just 3 percent of voters identified climate change as the United States' biggest concern in a recent Reuters poll.
