It is no longer global warming because it isn't.

It is climate change because it does.

Men are never so likely to settle a question rightly as when they discuss it freely.

— Thomas B. Macaulay (1800-1859), Essay on Southey's Colloquies

All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

History of Global Warming

Global warming was announced as an environmental problem back in 1988 by James Hansen of GISS. Soon everything under the sun except the sun was blamed on global warming. It got to be like all the cancer scares that used to fill the media on a nightly basis. So much so that people became desensitized to these reports and went about their lives as before reasoning that if they are going to contract cancer by living there is nothing to be done about it. When the globe stopped warming after 1998 the issue became climate change because that was an easier sell until it was pointed out that change is what the climate does, always has, always will. So the seekers of research funding changed the discussion to global climate disruption and tried to sell us on the idea that current disastrous weather events were unprecedented. This 'worked' until Google newspapers and the Australian Trove database were probed for similar events in the past in the same locations at the same time of year. Such events were readily found and the unprecedented argument beat a hasty retreat. Next up is the catch phrase 'sustainable development' which is where the environmental movement has really wanted to be all along. Now they can talk about what they believe to be the real problems facing mankind: overpopulation, resource overuse and leaving the earth in good shape for future generations. To do this will require global government to effect massive wealth redistribution which is their main goal. It is a Pinky and The Brain cartoon played out in real life.

"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill....All these dangers are caused by human intervention....and thus the “real enemy, then, is humanity itself....believe humanity requires a common motivation, namely a common adversary in order to realize world government. It does not matter if this common enemy is “a real one or….one invented for the purpose." ~Club of Rome

Pinky: Gee, Brain, what do you want to do tonight?
Brain: The same thing we do every night, Pinky - try to take over the world!

Game is up. We ain't buyin' it no mo. 

No need for more climate conferences. No need to foil FOI requests. No need to suppress critic's research. Disaster averted. CO2 exonerated.

Happy days are here again!

Why are the alarmists not cheering?
