IPCC Working Group II unleashed while documents leaked

The IPCC and related activist groups should be embracing the Pause. Cast it as a moral reprieve that could end any day now. Profit.

“To my mind it is democracy which is really under threat and it is the IPCC, climate change, and dishonest science which are the symptoms of the underlying struggle for power aimed at bringing an end of democracy as we understand it. There are too many in the EU power-corridors and elsewhere who have stated that the public aren’t capable of making the correct decisions.”

Exactly right Old England. To me, this is one of the most disturbing aspects of the bogus climate alarmist movement. A movement is indeed potentially very dangerous when it refuses to acknowledge the problems with its belief system(s) and maintains a completely closed mind with little or no respect for the dissenting voice and its right to be heard…especially when that voice is one of verifiable facts, science, logic and reasoning. That is the mindset of totalitarianism, and it is characterized by idiocy, incredible arrogance, overblown egos and a failure to respect the lessons of history. It is their way or the highway in their quest for power, money and control.
If Western civilization is to move forward towards a post-fossil fuels era as the Green Left in government, science, academia and the media desire, they are sadly and tragically mistaken if they think if can happen with wind turbines, solar panels, scaremongering climate alarmism, CO2 taxes and cap-and-trade schemes. In my view, history shows us that it is technological change and advancement (along with new ideas) that ushers in new eras in history. And when I mention technology, I am NOT talking about solar panels and wind turbines. Indeed it is only nuclear power that has demonstrated that it is capable of COMPLETELY displacing all of the electrical energy we currently derive from fossil fuels thanks to its incredible density compared with other energy sources. (Go LFTR!). A good understanding of both the benefits of nuclear power and the exaggerated, overblown fear of low-level radiation would go a long way to help the cause of nuclear power today.
The Green Movement’s failure to understand any of this is indeed disturbing and threatening to all the basic principles that Western civilization holds near and dear.

everyone everywhere must act now or else were all gonna die. 2 degrees centigrade is the maximum rise in global average temperature the earth can safely handle, I see, right, and how are we all to control the earth thermostat? exactly? OK everyone in the world must hold their breath five times a day for one minute. That should reduce hot air and CO2 measurably….

Watched the Figueres video- “word salad” indeed, and lot’s of feel-good stroking for the participants.
“Summary for Policy Makers” at bishop hill with changes tracked- prime example of sausage-making.
