A letter sent from: The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley
1 January 2010
His Excellency Mr. Kevin Rudd,
Prime Minister, Commonwealth of Australia.
Prime Minister,
Climate change: proposed personal briefing
Your speech on 6 November 2009 to the Lowy Institute, in which you publicly expressed some concern at my approach to the climate question, has prompted several leading Australian citizens to invite me come on tour to explain myself in a series of lectures in Australia later this month. I am writing to offer personal briefings on why “global warming” is a non-problem to you and other party leaders during my visit. For convenience, I am copying this letter to them, and to the Press.
Your speech mentioned my remarks about the proposal for world “government” in the early drafts of what had been intended as a binding Copenhagen Treaty. These proposals were not, as you suggested, a “conspiracy theory” from the “far right” with “zero basis in evidence”. Your staff will find them in paragraphs 36-38 of the main text of Annex 1 to the 15 September draft of the Treaty. The word “government” appears twice at paragraph 38. After much adverse publicity in democratic countries, including Australia, the proposals were reluctantly dropped before Copenhagen.
You say I am one of “those who argue that any multilateral action is by definition evil”. On the contrary: my first question is whether any action at all is required, to which – as I shall demonstrate – the objective economic and scientific answer is No. Even if multilateral action were required, which it is not, national governments in the West are by tradition democratically elected. Therefore, a fortiori, transnational or global governments should also be made and unmade by voters at the ballot-box. The climate ought not to be used as a shoddy pretext for international bureaucratic-centralist dictatorship. We committed Europeans have had more than enough of that already with the unelected but all-powerful Kommissars of the hated EU, who make nine-tenths of our laws by decree (revealingly, they call them “Directives” or “Commission Regulations”). The Kommissars (that is the official German word for them) inflict their dictates upon us regardless of what the elected European or any other democratic Parliament says or wishes. Do we want a worldwide EU? No.
You say I am one of “those who argue that climate change does not represent a global market failure”. Yet it is only recently that opinion sufficient to constitute a market signal became apparent in the documents of the IPCC, which is, however, a political rather than a scientific entity. There has scarcely been time for a “market failure”. Besides, corporations are falling over themselves to cash in on the giant financial fraud against the little guy that carbon taxation and trading have already become in the goody-two-shoes EU – and will become in Australia if you get your way.
You say I was one of “those who argue that somehow the market will magically solve the problem”. In fact I have never argued that, though in general the market is better at solving problems than the habitual but repeatedly-failed dirigisme of the etatistes predominant in the classe politique today.
The questions I address are a) whether there is a climate problem at all; and b) even if there is one, and even if per impossibile it is of the hilariously-overblown magnitude imagined by the IPCC, whether waiting and adapting as and if necessary is more cost-effective than attempting to mitigate the supposed problem by trying to reduce the carbon dioxide our industries and enterprises emit.
Let us pretend, solum ad argumentum, that a given proportionate increase in CO2 concentration causes the maximum warming imagined by the IPCC. The IPCC’s bureaucrats are careful not to derive a function that will convert changes in CO2 concentration directly to equilibrium changes in temperature. I shall do it for them.
We derive the necessary implicit function from the IPCC’s statement to the effect that equilibrium surface warming ΔT at CO2 doubling will be (3.26 ± ln 2) C°. Since the IPCC, in compliance with Beer’s Law, defines the radiative forcing effect of CO2 as logarithmic rather than linear, our implicit function can be derived at once. The coefficient is the predicted warming at CO2 doubling divided by the logarithm of 2, and the term (C/C0) is the proportionate increase in CO2 concentration. Thus,
ΔT = (4.7 ± 1) ln(C/C0) | Celsius degrees
We are looking at the IPCC’s maximum imagined warming rate, so we simply write –
ΔT = 5.7 ln(C/C0) | Celsius degrees
Armed with this function telling us the maximum equilibrium warming that the IPCC predicts from any given change in CO2 concentration, we can now determine, robustly, the maximum equilibrium warming that is likely to be forestalled by any proposed cut in the current upward path of CO2 emissions. Let me demonstrate.
By the end of this month, according to the Copenhagen Accord, all parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change are due to report what cuts in emissions they will make by 2020. Broadly speaking, the Annex 1 parties, who will account for about half of global emissions over the period, will commit to reducing current emissions by 30% by 2020, or 15% on average in the decade between now and 2020.
Thus, if and only if every Annex 1 party to the Copenhagen Accord complies with its obligations to the full, today’s emissions will be reduced by around half of that 15%, namely 7.5%, compared with business as usual. If the trend of the past decade continues, with business as usual we shall add 2 ppmv/year, or 20 ppmv over the decade, to atmospheric CO2 concentration. Now, 7.5% of 20 ppmv is 1.5 ppmv.
We determine the warming forestalled over the coming decade by comparing the business-as-usual warming that would occur between now and 2020 if we made no cuts in CO2 emissions with the lesser warming that would follow full compliance with the Copenhagen Accord. Where today’s CO2 concentration is 388 ppmv –
Business as usual: ΔT = 5.7 ln(408.0/388) = 0.29 C°
– Copenhagen Accord: ΔT = 5.7 ln(406.5/388) = 0.27 C°
= “Global warming” forestalled, 2010-2020: 0.02 C°
One-fiftieth of a Celsius degree of warming forestalled is all that complete, global compliance with the Copenhagen Accord for an entire decade would achieve. Yet the cost of achieving this result – an outcome so small that our instruments would not be able to measure it – would run into trillions of dollars. Do your Treasury models demonstrate that this calculation is in any way erroneous? If they do, junk them.
You say “formal global and national economic modelling” shows “that the costs of inaction are greater than the costs of acting”. You ask for my “equivalent evidence basis to Treasury modelling published by the Government of the industry and employment impacts of climate change”. I respond that the rigorous calculation that I have described, which your officials may verify for themselves, shows that whatever costs may be imagined to flow from anthropogenic “global warming” will scarcely be mitigated at all, even by trillions of dollars of expenditure over the coming decade.
Every economic analysis except that of the now-discredited Lord Stern, with its near-zero discount rate and its absurdly inflated warming rates, comes to the same ineluctable conclusion: adaptation to climate change, in whatever direction, as and if necessary, is orders of magnitude more cost-effective than attempts at mitigation. In a long career in policy analysis in and out of government, I have never seen so cost-ineffective a proposed waste of taxpayers’ money as the trillions which today’s scientifically-illiterate governments propose to spend on attempting – with all the plausibility of King Canute – to stop the tide from coming in.
Remember that I have done this calculation on the basis that everyone who should comply with the Copenhagen Accord actually does comply. Precedent does not look promising. The Kyoto Protocol, the Copenhagen Accord’s predecessor, has been in operation for more than a decade, and it was supposed to reduce global CO2 emissions by 2012. So far, after billions spent on global implementation of Kyoto, global CO2 emissions have risen compared with when Kyoto was first signed.
Remember too that we have assumed the maximum warming that the CO2 imagines might occur in response to a given proportionate increase in CO2 concentration. Yet even the IPCC’s central estimate of CO2’s warming effect, according to an increasing number of serious papers in the peer-reviewed literature, is a five-fold exaggeration. If those papers are right, after a further decade of incomplete compliance and billions squandered, warming forestalled may prove to be just a thousandth of a degree.
Now ask yourself this. Are you, personally, and your advisers, personally, and your administration’s officials, personally, willing to make the heroically pointless sacrifices that you so insouciantly demand of others in the name of Saving The Planet For Future Generations? I beg leave to think not. At Flag 1 I have attached what I have reason to believe is a generally accurate list of the names and titles of the delegation that you led to Copenhagen to bring back the non-result whose paltriness, pointlessness and futility we have now rigorously demonstrated. There are 114 names on the list. One hundred and fourteen. Enough to fill a mid-sized passenger jet. Half a dozen were all that was really necessary – and perhaps one from each State in Australia. If you and your officials are not willing to tighten your belts when a tempting foreign junket at taxpayers’ expense is in prospect, why, pray, should the taxpayers tighten theirs?
You say that climate-change “deniers” – nasty word, that, and you should really have known better than to use it – are “small in number but too dangerous to be ignored”, and “well resourced”. In fact, governments, taxpayer-funded organizations, taxpayer-funded teachers, and taxpayer-funded environmental groups have spent something like 50,000 times as much on “global warming” propaganda as their opponents have spent on debunking this new and cruel superstition. And that is before we take account of the relentless prejudice of the majority of the mainstream news media.
How, then, it is that we, the supposed minority who will not admit that the emperor of “global warming” is adequately clad, are somehow prevailing? How is it that we are convincing more and more of the population not to place any more trust in the “global warming” theory? The answer is that the “global warming” theory is not true, and no amount of bluster or braggadocio, ranting or rodomontade will make it true.
You say that our aim, in daring to oppose the transient fashion for apocalypticism, is “to erode just enough of the political will that action becomes impossible”. No. Our aim is simply to ensure that the truth is widely enough understood to prevent the squandering of precious resources on addressing the non-problem of anthropogenic “global warming”. The correct policy response to a non-problem is to have the courage to do nothing. No interventionist likes to do nothing. Nevertheless, the do-nothing option, scientifically and economically speaking, is the right option.
You say that I and others like me base our thinking on the notion that “the cost of not acting is nothing”. Well, after a decade and a half with no statistically-significant “global warming”, and after three decades in which the mean warming rate has been well below the ever-falling predictions of the UN’s climate panel, that notion has certainly not been disproven in reality.
However, the question I address is not that but this. Is the cost of taking action many times greater than the cost of not acting? The answer to this question is Yes.
Millions are already dying of starvation in the world’s poorest nations because world food prices have doubled in two years. That abrupt, vicious doubling was caused by a sharp drop in world food production, caused in turn by suddenly taking millions of acres of land out of growing food for people who need it, so as to grow biofuels for clunkers that don’t. The scientifically-illiterate, economically-innumerate policies that you advocate – however fashionable you may conceive them to be – are killing people by the million.
You say my logic “belongs in a casino, not a science lab”. Yet it is you who are gambling with poor people’s lives, and it is you – or, rather, they – who are losing: and losing not merely their substance but their very existence. The biofuel scam is born of the idiotic notion – a notion you uncritically espouse – that increasing by less than 1/2000 this century the proportion of the Earth’s atmosphere occupied by CO2 may prove catastrophic. At a time when so many of the world’s people are already short of food, the UN’s right-to-food rapporteur, Herr Ziegler, has roundly and rightly condemned the biofuel scam as nothing less than “a crime against humanity”.
The scale of the slaughter is monstrous, with food riots (largely unreported in the Western news media, and certainly not mentioned by you in your recent speech) in a dozen regions of the Third World over the past two years. Yet this cruel, unheeded slaughter is founded upon a lie: the claim by the IPCC that it is 90% certain that most of the “global warming” since 1950 is manmade. This claim – based not on science but on a show of hands among political representatives, with China wanting a lower figure and other nations wanting a higher figure – is demonstrably, self-servingly false. Peer-reviewed analyses of changes in cloud cover over recent decades – changes almost entirely unconnected with changes in CO2 concentration – show that it was this largely-natural reduction in cloud cover from 1983-2001 and a consequent increase in the amount of short-wave and UV solar radiation reaching the Earth that accounted for five times as much warming as CO2 could have caused.
Nor is the IPCC’s great lie the only lie. If you will allow me to brief you and your advisers, I will show you lie after lie after lie after lie in the official documents of the IPCC and in the speeches of its current chairman, who has made himself a multi-millionaire as a “global warming” profiteer.
However, if you will not make the time to hear me for half an hour before you commit your working people to the futile indignity of excessive taxation and pointless over-regulation without the slightest scientific or economic justification, and to outright confiscation of their farmland without compensation on the fatuous pretext that the land is a “carbon sink”, then I hope that you will at least nominate one of the scientists on your staff to address the two central issues that I have raised in this letter: namely, the egregious cost-ineffectiveness of attempting to mitigate “global warming” by emissions reduction, and the measured fact, well demonstrated in the scientific literature, that a largely-natural change in cloud cover in recent decades caused five times as much “global warming” as CO2. It is also a measured fact that, while those of the UN’s computer models that can be forced with an increase in sea-surface temperatures all predict a consequent fall in the flux of outgoing radiation at top of atmosphere, in observed reality there is an increase. In short, the radiation that is supposed to be trapped here in the troposphere to cause “global warming” is measured as escaping to space much as usual, so that it cannot be causing more than around one-fifth of the warming the IPCC predicts.
My list of the Copenhagen junketers from Australia’s governing class is attached. All those taxpayer dollars squandered, just to forestall 0.02 C° of “global warming” in ten years. Yet, in the past decade and a half, there has been no “global warming” at all. Can you not see that it would be kinder to your working people to wait another decade and see whether global temperatures even begin to respond as the IPCC has predicted? What is the worst that can happen if you wait? Just 0.02 C° of global warming that would not otherwise have occurred. It’s a no-brainer.
Yours faithfully,
VISCOUNT MONCKTON OF BRENCHLEY

Like most politicians worldwide, Australian politicians like Rudd will not debate Lord Monckton because they CANNOT debate him. Clearly, they would lose any debate with him because Lord Monckton has the facts and people such has Rudd have ideology and fantasy, both of which are unsupportable. So they don’t even try to support their positions. But a question. For Aussies. How the hell did you ever select a dud like Rudd as your leader? Was he the best available? But Aussies shouldn’t feel too bad. Here in Canada, Canadians elected a communist as Prime Minister – Trudeau – bosom buddy of Fidel Castro. (When Trudeau kicked off Castro came to his funeral!) And then to add insult to injury Canadians elected another arrogant dud as PM – Jean Chretien. Nice thing about the US system is that they have recall – and impeachment. Politicians like Rudd can be summarily removed from office before they can do serious damage to a nation.
Dear Russ,
You don’t mention the traitor Harper. Odd. He is a rabid Zionist and your nuts are David Beckham in Canada.
There is no recall in Australia. The only way to dismiss an elected government is the prerogative power of the Crown as may be exercised by the Governor General. This happened in 1975. The Whitlam Govt was sacked by GG John Kerr. An election returned Malcolm Fraser of the Liberal Party. Fraser these days speaks like a voice from the past for smaller Govt and human rights.
On an ancestral, anecdotal, cross cultural note, there is a Glasgow phrase “I will give you the severe Malky” This is rhyming slang for a razor slash. Malcolm Fraser=Razor.
I have heard that Lord Christopher has agreed to a speaking tour in Australia in the immediate future.
What a perfect opportunity for the MSM to call Rudd out. See Piers Ackerman in today’s Sydney Telegraph. It is already on the go. LCM would relish the opportunity to demolish that steaming,oozing, supurrating Krudd who leads this once good nation, and is determined to stab its people in the back. 152 useless Govt personnel sent with Krudd to Copenhagen. How much did that cost? How big was their Carbon Footprint?
The man cannot be ignorant of the consequences of his stance. Its just that he’s a snivelling, sychophantic servant of the powers the be. A whore to forces in direct conflict with the interests of the Australian people and based on scientific fraud, An Andy Pandy Puppet who just does what the string pullers command and has no memory of where he has been before.
He is in truth a nobody. But his speeches on the issue of AGW will have him roasted and hanged in public for the traitor he is. We hate liars.
So lets do them in.

C’mon Krudd,
VISIT OF CHRISTOPHER MONCKTON
He’s here. Your nemesis awaits at your doorstep. Are you going to cower in Kirribbilli House while the big bad wolf blows your door down with a refreshing breeze of truth?
How about a skiing trip to the Himalayan glaciers while the heat is on in Australia? Remember Australia? The country that was conned into setting you on the world stage where you posture and pander, pose and proselytise. You will go down in history as the parasitic ponce who preyed on the people of this proud nation with the pretence that they must pay for being alive on this planet.
Come out and fight you nematode! And bring your 150 advisers. Maybe they can tell you how your settled science became scuttled science. Not one of them is worth the pay they suck out of the taxpayer under the ultimate threat of Government violence.
Facts have a funny way of biting the arse off liars, and yours, Mate, has been Gored off. You’ll need a big nappy to stop the blood during your photo ops tomorrow. How dare you show your face.
John Doris
Dear PM ,AKA KRudd
This is Australia day. The day above all others when we celebrate our loyalty to the Lucky Country.
But you are about to sell the soul of this country to international corporations and bankers under the pretext of the need to address a fictional disaster scenario. Global warming.
The swine flu scam is now over. How much did you spend on wasted, untested doses of useless and dangerous vaccine?
How much of it is now to be wasted, shelf life expired? Publish the figures. Publish the advice. Identify its authors.
Will you sack the public servants who gave you wrong advice, who duped you, you poor ignorant, sucked in Prime Minister of Australia.
Or will you invoke the “precautionary principle”? Did you not notice the WHO reduction of the term “Pandemic” to nothing.
Do you not understand that WHO is a slave to BigPharma, and, therefore so are you.
But we the people don’t buy it. So why should we pay for your conspiracy with corporate gougers to rip off our tax dollars to buy useless dangerous crap which is now just going to waste.
Or are you just a badly advised dupe? As our leader aren’t you supposed to be the best of the best, along with your 152 advisers at Copenhagen?
Turning to Climate. Is it not your job to find and speak the truth?
Do you not have a constituency among Australian Farmers? Or are you part of the multinational “Haves and have mores”
Your plans punish the people in order to excuse the polluters. This is a stealth tax. Deny that in public please. You cannot make that admission without conceding you are a fool or a fraud. The world faces food shortages and your policies reduce Australian food production. Has it not occurred to you that to increase food production in Australia would help our exports and help feed the world.?
We have land, and land management ingenuity, in abundance. Peter Spencer makes the point that you gapingly fail to understand,
FOOD COMES FIRST
If you want biofuels grow hemp. Industrial hemp. Grow algae which are infesting our waterways anyway. That grows in a tank. Do not divert human food to feed cars.
Rudd I cannot conclude that you are stupid, so can you convince me you are not a major criminal?

I have to say, if Mr Rudd didn’t read the treaty for himself to find the theme of “governance” for himself, I can’t see him taking the time to read Moncktons’ reply!!! I would love to see him actually attend one of these lectures, or better still, debate it in a public forum, ha! Kevin would have as much chance as those poor Greenpeace lemmings the viscount schooled in Copenhagen….
Either Kevin is unaware of how close he is to selling our country out to the malevolent elite agenda, or he is manipulated, or worse, in on it….
All three scenarios make him unfit to be the leader of our country….
On top of that, I don’t believe that Tony Abbott would understand how he narrowly prevented our country from letting what is for now called the UN wedge its foot in the doorstep of our system of policy and governance…forever.
At the time I was intrigued why Turnbull was essentially licking Labours’ arse on this issue…so I looked into his history. One thing that stood out for me was his Goldman Sachs career…major player in this umbrella agenda of which climate change is just the hook handle, the bit that sticks out underneath. Is/was Turnbull in on this Orwellian manipulation as well? Was what Tony Abbott did to defeat the ETS a fluke of opposition?, or is he going to push the same agenda, just from a more palatable angle?
Political parties are two wings of the same bird, the flight plan stays the same.
Why is it all of a sudden, our fault, that global warming is occurring? Is it really what we eat, drink, shit, drive in, breath?
I mean, this sort of stuff ( changes in the environment), has happened on several ocassions, well before cars and man were even on this planet to leave a, “carbon footprint”.
Think about it people. Hot periods and Ice ages happened before. Do your research. Don’t fall for the ole Mia Culpa routine. If its not religion making you feel terrible about yourself, its your fucking government and eat shit money grubbing pricks riding the “Go Green!” gravy train.
Remember, everything you need to know you learned in kindergarten. Like extreme hot periods (when the dinosaurs roamed the earth) and Ice ages ( when mammals like the mammoth ruled).
