The "long whimper" of failing climate alarmism

I’ll know the end is near when the Ponzi style big money moves onto the next thing.

Rajendra Pachauri was also the former head of Yale Climate Change Boondoggle funded by Steyer? No?

u may only read about it isolated newspapers, but “carbon” markets are also crashing to earth.
add this one to all the others of late:
4 Mar: Irish Independent: John Mulligan: Revenue moves to have carbon credit trading firm wound up
The Revenue Commissioners is seeking to have Dublin-based carbon credit trading firm Celestial Green Ventures wound up.
The firm, which is headed by chief executive Ciaran Kelly, bills itself as being involved in rainforest preservation in Brazil. By preventing deforestation, it generates “carbon benefits” which can then be sold on the voluntary carbon market to entities that want to reduce or offset their emissions…
The petition is due to be heard on April 4.
Celestial Green Ventures moved to a larger premises in Dublin in 2012 and announced plans at the time to hire 30 staff. The telephone number at the office was not operating yesterday, while efforts to contact the office and Mr Kelly by email were unsuccessful.

17 Feb: UK Mirror: Firms selling worthless carbon credits shut down for “one giant scam”
The 19 companies were put into compulsory liquidation by the High Court after victims were fleeced by ‘boiler room’ cold callers

“McIntyre, who is a one man climate science paper killer will need help to finish off the job of cleaning out the thousands of worthless climate papers in the literature.”
Sounds like a Herculean effort will be needed.

Good post Gary.
Seems it takes a decade for any bureaucracy to be corrected.
Never will they admit error, malice nor incompetence.
Just slide away and hope no one remembers.
Guaranteed pensions at the expense of those so ill served by their “help”.
The CRU emails were indefensible, I was highly amused by those willing to try to justify the behaviour exposed.
Costs of idiotic policies by governments are coming home to the consciousness of our taxpayers..
Naturally its time to pocket the cash and slink off onto the distance.
But will it work?
This tool,the internet, never forgets, many of our fools and bandits went all in on the CAGW scheme.
Such gullibility should always be rewarded.

I’m guessing there have been a flood of climatologists graduate in the last 10 years in response to all of the hoopla. If funding should dry up — or even fail to expand — there’s going to be a lot of beached fish.

“It’s policy based “science” and we have to find a much better Word for that?”
How about post-modern science?
The essence of “post-modern science” is to use the trappings and vocabulary of science in the service of propaganda. Bad propaganda. And dishonest propaganda. Propaganda, per se, is arguing for a side, it is possible to do so honestly, as well as effectively. And then there is the kind of propaganda that gives “propaganda” a bad name.
The category of people who started this mess will regroup. Their purpose remains, draw up the bridges, secure the moat, let none challenge their status (more so than their wealth, but the two are inter-twined). The same motive behind occupancy licensing, and much else throttling opportunity.

Who would have believed that following Copenhagen only a little over six years later the skeptics on WUWT and other major skeptic climate blogs would quite casually and without much rancor or heat but with considerable scorn, be discussing the on going melt down of the entire very selfish, power lusting, grandiose planet and society changing, fascist orientated anthropogenic global warming catastrophe movement?
There are a couple of points to be made here.
Each societal movement / corporation and political movement has a life cycle and the green / CAGW movement is not exempt in any way from the hard facts of the Corporate Lifecycle in the society of today.
A good source to see the stages in a movement / corporation’s life cycle is the “Adizes Corporate Lifecycle”.
http://www.adizes.com/lifecycle/
Run your pointer over each stage shown to get a short outline on the characteristics of that stage in the Adizes Corporate Lifecycle.
The second point is more of a personal observation over the almost 78 years of my life time.
As the creators of societal organisations, businesses, movements, cultural memes and so much more, my generation which helped re-build the world after the catastrophe of WW2 have made the very bad mistake, which all generations make, in that they expect and even demand that the next generation just pick up where we left off and keep right on running and utilising all those creations, all those movements, all those cultural and societal memes, all those family and wider businesses and even corporations which we started and were created by my generation which is now well and truly on its way out and going or just gone.
As a newest and next generation; They don’t and They won’t!
They, the next generation are just like we were.
They will be out there busily creating their own businesses and societal and cultural and political memes and movements that their generation will adhere to in creating the societal dictates that will guide them all their lives.
And they also in turn will be bitterly disappointed like a lot of my generation have been, when the generation following them also fails or refuses to follow in their footsteps and just get to setting about creating the society and the life they hope for and desire and dream about in their future.
The example here could easily be seen in the supposed grossly hyped potential Catastrophe of the Ozone Hole affair later allied and linked closely through the same scientific scammers working in both fields to the following even greater hyped and scammed CAGW cult.
The whole purported and constantly predicted and subsequently aborted man made catastrophe meme which has driven much of western society’s guilt trip for close on three decades, the useful working life of a generation, is now decaying into just another heap of stinking scientific and green activist’s publicly visible depravity.
That older generation of science scammers and green activists that created that great increasingly stinky pile of scientific and cultural dung is coming to the end of its influence and a new generation with hopefully much more pragmatic and humanity considering goals and with different aims is beginning to move in at the lower stratas of business and society with ideas, not so latent memes and themes that will be the cultural engine that will drive the next generation’s restructuring of society along with influences and the memes that will shape that future society.
As always in human affairs;
Everything changes!
Nothing changes!

Erm, RealClimate is alive and well, continuing its focus on quality over quantity, Joe Romm’s last post was a few days ago, the UK Climate Change Act was passed by all but 5 MPs, 100% of professional science academies support the IPCC conclusions, the Paris agreement was, extraordinarily, passed unanimously by all countries, last year was the warmest on record at the surface and the ‘Pause’, last refuge of the scientific scoundrel, is dead.
Whimpering indeed.
