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.

Mother Nature Doesn’t Care How Much CO2 is in the Air


In the first half (1979-1998))of the satellite record(UAH) ending in 2018 CO2 went up by .28 ppm and the temperature rose by .6C. In the second half ot the record ending in December 2018 CO2 went up by 42 ppm but the temperature remained flat.

Is that what you would expect to see if CO2 was the controlling climate factor?

In Canada in the spring of 2019 floods flooded parts of Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick. The climate authorities blame climate change and point to these events as the cost of not fighting climate change(reducing our CO2 emissions). The scientific literature says otherwise.





But you won’t hear that from the Canadian climate authorities or their lackeys ($595 million slush fund) in the MSM who are pushing an agenda of more government control over the lives of its citizens in the long slow march toward a socialist authoritarian state so desired by the totalitarians among us.

In Southeast Asia cyclone Fani was deadly.  But are cyclones(hurricanes in N. America) getting worse due to the human emissions of CO2?





Will you find that reassurance in the MSM?

One of India's strongest cyclones was the one that affected Andhra Pradesh in 1977. With the lowest pressure of about 919 mbar, the cyclone claimed the lives of as many as 50,000 people. The 1999 Orissa (now Odisha) super-cyclone claimed the lives of over 15,000 people. Winds reached the speed of 260 kmph.Dec 13, 2016”


CO2 concentration was much lower in our atmosphere in 1977. Cyclones don’t care how much CO2 is in the air.

Extreme weather events cannot be blamed on the human emission of CO2.

Weather is variable and so is the climate. Our atmosphere is not overheated. History tells us that all changes modern humans have experienced have been within the bounds of natural variability.



Despite the weather disasters experienced by humans over the ages there is no climate crisis caused by the human emission of carbon dioxide.

CO2 is a friend with benefits.


Let the MSM emphasise that.

The Rapidly Populating Continent of  Antarctica


How soon is soon?


So how are we doing with those predictions?

Here are the populations of the seven continents as of 2018.

No humans live in Antarctica permanently. However, about 1,000 to 5,000 people live through the year at the science stations in Antarctica. Only plants and animals that can live in cold live there. The animals include penguins, seals, nematodes, tardigrades and mites.”

Perhaps the planet is not warming as fast as the ‘experts’ have thought?

If there are to be 3.5 million people permanently living in Antarctica by 2040 there are only 3.5 million to go.

I may be dead by 2040 but it is my suspicion that there will still be 3.,5 million to go by the time 2040 rolls around.

Hope I am around to say I told you so.

The future will look back upon our leaders as delusional nutbars motivated(blinded) by agenda with minds closed to reality while others who knew and spoke the truth were ignored because arrogance is deaf.


Carbon Taxes



Early detection and warnings save lives.

Cold kills more people than heat does.


Carbon taxes raise the price of the energy required to heat homes. Those on a limited budget will be affected to a greater extent.

For the USA as a whole, human mortality due to cold weather is more than sixteen times larger than that due to warm weather. And so it is that perhaps we should all pray for a little more global warming...

Canada’s carbon tax will cause more poor people to die prematurely and unnecessarily.


"The Earth has cancer and the cancer is Man." ~ Club of Rome

"...the resultant ideal sustainable population is hence more than 500 million people but less than one billion." ~ Club of Rome

"A reasonable estimate for an industrialized world society at the present North American material standard of living would be 1 billion. At the more frugal European standard of living, 2 to 3 billion would be possible." ~  UN Commission on Global Biodiversity Assessment

Is premature death the goal?

Friends of Science Society’s recent report “Just the Facts on Carbon Tax” thoroughly demolishes arguments for a carbon tax. A blog post by Ottawa energy policy consultant, Robert Lyman, entitled: “Debunking Ecofiscal’s ‘Myths on Carbon Pricing” is one of the top viewed posts.
