Climate change presumes that humans, an insignificant force in nature owned by time measured in mere decades, can remake and control what the eternal Creator made when he flung the atoms into the void and made something from nothing.
As usual, the frenzied state-run mainstream media is busy trying to scare the pants off everyone.
It’s summer in North America, which has the most volatile weather on Earth, lest we forget. Late July has found the US with a large heat dome over much of the middle of the country and flooding in Vermont and the Hudson Valley caused by heavy rains.
But the real story for the Pravda-like national media is that these events are simply props to gin up ever more public political hysteria over the “official” culprit – climate change. And, as each story suggests by inference, if not blatantly, if only we would turn everything over to the government, we could be saved! No more sweltering summer days, no more heavy rains on the hard granite and limestone racing down the valleys flooding out low-lying towns. There would be perfect temperatures and soft showers.
Normal people used to recognize by experience that we have mild summers every so often. But mostly, summers are hot. Occasionally the summers are hotter than blazes and seem to be at war with autumn. Same with winter. Every now and then, we have mild winters. Mostly we have cold winters, though. Every so often, we have bone-chilling, freezing-your-eyelids-closed winters – Arctic blasts and such.
We used to call this phenomenon weather. Now the never-ending propaganda machine and the gravy train of graft and corruption fed by trillions of tax dollars demands we use the state-approved but idiotic description, Climate Change.
Well, that’s not precisely accurate. During the 1970s, they called it global cooling or something like that. An Ice Age was coming at any rate, according to the experts. When it became apparent that the weather was just being the weather, they had to change it to global warming. But that label didn’t fit because, over time, it didn’t seem the world was warming. That pesky weather again. Anyway, the really smart people decided they would change the label to something that captured any possibility. Hence, climate change.
Some of us were scratching our heads at the labeling change because it seemed pretty obvious to us that the weather always changed, and therefore weather patterns – the climate – were always in a state of flux and change. And when you look at the long view of historical weather patterns, that’s just what you find – continual change. But I digress.
Now, we’re on the horns of the greatest scam – a flat-out con job – in recorded history. A lot of really bad and evil people in the ruling classes are fixing to strip the Western industrialized world (the Chinese and Indians aren’t stupid enough to buy into the insanity) of trillions of dollars of wealth. Your wealth. An added bonus is that these modern-day criminals, looters, and hard-core authoritarians will also take your lifestyle.
You’re merely a commodity; the sooner they can create a feudal digital world order, the better. ‘You will own nothing (no home, no car, no nothing) and be happy,’ as Klause Schwab of the World Economic Forum says with beaming pride. (He inherited the impulse. His daddy was a prominent industrialist in Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich, in cahoots with the regime and enjoying slave labor in his plants that supplied the war effort.)
Two types of distinct people are involved in the Green scam. One group is mere thieves and bandits posing as politician types, corporate bigwigs, and way too many scientists hooked on the cash. The others are crazed greenies who are full-fledged lunatics.
To the former, this is about money. An unending flow of easy government money is thrown at every cockamamie scheme or idea they can think up. Much, if not all, of the money is loosely scrutinized and largely unaccountable. Wealth, to them, is a scorecard of life and the ultimate instrument of power. Nothing else matters. They want it all.
The latter are true believers in their radicalism. They want total and absolute control of the human population. The “dictatorship of the proletariat” and all of that rot are buried deep in the darkness of their souls. In their own words, they want to depopulate the Earth and sequester populations in small units (the “15-minute” city plan) and outposts with strict control of housing, size, children, mobility, food, and fuel. If you don’t believe it, just listen to them. Or consider their latest push to outlaw your gas stoves, air conditioners, and water heaters, for heaven’s sake! They are also actively trying to shut down growing and raising food by shutting down wide swaths of farming and ranching industries worldwide. They are stone-cold crazy.
Listen to the warped and twisted John Kerry, former Senator, Secretary of State, and nearly the president in 2004. The so-called Climate Czar for the enfeebled and stunningly corrupt appointed president in the White House, Mr. Kerry, was at the World Economic Forum in Davos early this year talking to the would-be masters of the universe, and said, “They [the participants] were part of a ‘select group of human beings’ brought together by an ‘extra-terrestrial’ force to save the planet.”
You can’t make this stuff up.
And in case you had any delusions about how they would save us, Mr. Kerry continued, “As to how to get there [keeping warming under 1.5 degrees Celsius] the lesson I’ve learned in the last years and I learned it as secretary [of State] and I’ve learned it since, reinforced in spades, is: money, money, money, money, money, money, money. And I’m sorry to say that.”
The radicals are the bottom-feeders of humanity who always want to take away something produced by someone else that they could never produce or create themselves. Their twisted minds and fetid souls demand the lubrication of controlling others – to act and live only in a prescribed manner they approve of. Kinda like a global HOA on steroids.
Your humble chronicler of the times, along with many others, has written about the Green scam for decades. I’ve frequently dived into history to show how dynamic and fluid the weather patterns have always been. That there is no such thing as “normal” weather. I’ve written about how droughts, floods, ice ages, heat cycles, volcanic eruptions, the Earth’s axis, the oceans, and the Sun work in unfathomably complex ways. And how the history of mankind is itself written by those events. Seas that were once here are gone or retreated. Lakes now exist where none did, and others disappeared. The great oceans have ebbed and flowed both much higher and much lower. Ice once there has retreated. Elsewhere it grows. Sea lanes now open were once closed, and visa versa. A whole continent now under miles of ice was once verdant. Once green deserts are burning sand. A bridge of ice and islands between two continents slipped into the roiling ocean.
Nothing is permanent. It’s been much hotter and much colder. The dreaded Co2 labeled now as so horrible has been many times higher and even lower. Record low temperatures occurred when CO2 levels were at a record high of about 7,000 ppm compared to today’s CO2 of 415 ppm. They were highest approximately 60 million years ago when CO2 levels were low. Today it’s near that low, not high. Go figure.
But in the end, the current battle over the climate continues the Ancient battle between the hubris and arrogance of men versus the Creation of the Creator.
Climate change presumes that humans, an insignificant force in nature owned by time measured in mere decades, can remake and control what the eternal Creator made when he flung the atoms into the void and made something from nothing. He didn’t need the advice of climate experts then, and I’m very sure he doesn’t need this crowd’s advice now.

Mr Giere writings on climate change should be required reading.
The ignorami of the left had to abandon global cooling and global warming because they couldn’t decide which it was. If we have another Tambora size eruption, it will be global cooling. If the sun decides to get frisky, it will be global warming. Meanwhile, India just closed off rice exports and the Netherlands is trying to destroy their farms.
You are easily swayed.
no I’m not
“ixing to strip the Western industrialized world (the Chinese and Indians aren’t stupid enough to buy into the insanity) of trillions of dollars of wealth.” $500 billion in new private investment was the most recent number I saw.
Repeat after me: Industrial Revolution. I think God looks down, just shakes His head , and says “ok……..go ahead…….be stupid with what I gave you
You think you matter asshole? Right…
yep, I do. I try to make the world a little better every day…………asshole
That was directed to your friend whose comment got deleted, not you Martin. But you are an asshole.
gfy
Please stop trying. You are making it worse.
