The Manipulation Continues

Those who are trying to ‘sell’ AGW recognize the need for FEAR. If the populace is not afraid of climate change it will be difficult in democratic countries to garner the support required to effect the changes desired by the champions of AGW. So let’s make it catastrophic and we have CAGW.

Dixy Lee Ray, former liberal Democrat governor of State of Washington, U.S.: "The objective, clearly enunciated by the leaders of UNCED, is to bring about a change in the present system of independent nations. The future is to be World Government with central planning by the United Nations. Fear of environmental crises - whether real or not - is expected to lead to – compliance”

Jim Sibbison, environmental journalist, former public relations official for the Environmental Protection Agency: "We routinely wrote scare stories...Our press reports were more or less true...We were out to whip the public into a frenzy about the environment."

Oh, really.

Emeritus professor Daniel Botkin: "The only way to get our society to truly change is to frighten people with the possibility of a catastrophe."

Manipulate!

Former NASA scientist James Hansen: If all fossil fuels burned, global warming would be 25°C higher

Now that is scary! But his scariest model is running way ahead of Mother Nature so he doesn’t really know what he is talking about. Hakuna Matata. Hansen loves to scare people.

But then wise people from the past were aware of these shenanigans and took the time to warn future generations about these political tricks.

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed — and hence clamorous to be led to safety — by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~H.L. Mencken

And CAGW is another such hobgoblin.

So, in advance of the release of AR5 in September 2013 it is not surprising to see this in the MSM.

ADMISSION!…German Delegation, Politician Concede: ‘Climate Policy Needs Element Of Fear’ In UN IPCC Report

Expect the scariest story that they can muster but remember that is all just bluster.

"The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false face for the urge to rule it." ~H.L. Mencken

Obama & Allies Tell UN to Cover for Lack of Global Warming

Mencken knew what he was talking about. POTUS - afraid of the truth #manofcharacter

Mind-blowing tweet from the Stockholm IPCC negotiations: "A contact group was formed to consider drivers of climate change"

The settled science appears to be not so settled and Mother Nature and her skeptical allies have forced them to own up to it. CO2 does not have the superpowers previously assigned to it? Is there kryptonite in the air sapping its strength?

Perhaps there is a new star in the drama.

New paper finds another amplification mechanism by which the Sun controls climate: Published in Advances in Space Research finds small changes in solar wind speed may affect both the North Atlantic Oscillation [NAO] and the Arctic Oscillation [AO] on both short-term [day-to-day] and long-term [inter-annual] timescales

Gee, the sun as a driver of climate change? Can you hear Gomer?

Well, golllly! Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!

Analysis: ‘Numerous UN IPCC personnel have ties to environmental groups, many of which raise funds by hyping the alleged dangers of climate change’        

Well, golllly! Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!

Der Spiegel Poll: Only 39% of Germans fear global warming — Down from 62% in 2006

People are catching on to the world’s biggest and most expensive political scam. Let the FEAR in you subside.
