Well, if they do not produce a scary report the reason for their existence goes away. Who wants to eliminate their own job? Consider the perks the UN IPCC workers get. Free transportation to endless conferences in all corners of the warming world. The job is like a permanent vacation. Who pays for their food while on these junkets? Do they worry about the ‘carbon footprint’ they leave upon the planet as they galavant around?
‘Risks of irreversible damage’ will keep the gravy train rolling to the next exotic spot. ‘Everything is within the bounds of natural variability’ is not a verdict that will encourage governments to continue their substantial financial support of the crusade.
The focus must be on natural disasters and rising temperatures. Document and publicise. Look what happens as CO2 goes up. As if these kinds of bad weather events only started when humans began emitting lots of CO2 into the air from the burning of fossil fuels. The UN IPCC knows the truth. They just can’t afford to admit it. But the word is getting out as skeptics continue to document and publicise the data contrary to the disaster movie that the script writers at the IPCC are developing. I prefer reality. The news is so much better.
The climate cycles. The IPCC wants to implement controls on carbon emissions before the climate turns cooler and the public catches on to the ruse. There is nothing out of the ordinary going on with our climate. It warms. It cools. Extreme weather goes through periods of greater frequency and quieter periods like we are currently experiencing. Ho hum. No sign of doomsday. Of course, the real occurrences of drought, floods, tornadoes, wildfires and hurricanes are devastating to the people who are affected by them and the fact that there are more of us with more stuff that can be affected by such disasters may make it seem as if these events are more virulent than in the past. But the data say differently. All of these events are less frequent than in the past despite the unabated rise in human CO2 emissions. We are not their cause nor are we their master. Mother Nature is still in control.
But the truth cannot be the message of the IPCC. It must blame humans for any and all the bad things that happen in the world. Connect everything to climate change. Turn CO2 into a magic gas with the ability to spread disease, create climate refugees, cause an oceanic uprising to flood low lying areas, destroy crops and cause famine. If it is bad CO2 did it. This is a black magic message of doom. Keep the focus on the damage the climate can do. Focus on the present to make it seem more frequent. Never dwell on the past. There is nothing in the world that can contradict the power of CO2 to do harm. Nothing can falsify the view of the IPCC. And therefore their view is not one based in science. It resembles a religious view where God explains everything. God did it. CO2 has replaced God in the worldview of the IPCC. The have moved from science to the occult. From reality to mysticism. They do not question their belief. It is taken for granted. Challengers are met with name calling, shouting, guilt mongering, anything to undermine their desire to speak out. Challengers cannot be tolerated. This is not a discussion. This is an imposition. It is a sermon not a debate.
Mother Nature has the only opinion that counts because she is NEVER wrong.
