The
first four words are very important. “Climate Change is happening.”
You bet it is. The climate of planet Earth has been constantly changing
for 4.5 billion years. Earth has been frozen into a sort of ice ball at
least four times in its history (the Ice Ages) and has been as
warm or warmer than it is today at least three times (Interglacial
Periods) during its history. Smaller changes such as the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age occur more often and still smaller swings in climate occur almost constantly.
Climate
scientists, the media, environmentalists, bureaucrats and politicians
have all been thinking about climate in a wrong way for a couple of
decades now. They seem to have been thinking that there is a “normal” climate and it was what the climate as it existed on the day mankind burned fossil fuel for the first time. They have been positioning the climate debate to tell us that it is our responsibility to return the climate to exactly as it was then. ...........
The bottom line is that our climate is changing but not very much and no climate change crisis seems to be occurring. ................
The steady rise in CO2 is well documented. Think about that: the
pause in temperature increases is rolling on despite the continuing
steady increase in the level of CO2 in the air. So the basic theory
that man is causing climate change by burning fossil fuels has failed to verify. Scientifically it is just plain dead."
