 The Anthropogenic Climate Change Scam


There is important scientific evidence that disagrees with the left leaning promulgation of greenhouse gas caused climate change.

"Climate scientists need there to be a problem in order to get funding" -- Dr Roy Spencer

Dr. Roy Spencer is a principal research scientist for the University of Alabama in Huntsville, as well as the U.S. Science Team Leader for the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR-E) on NASA’s Aqua satellite.  He is known for his work with the satellite-based temperature monitoring for which he and Dr. John Christy received NASA’s Exceptional Scientific Achievement Medal [Wikipedia]. 

Dr. Spencer suggests that global warming is mostly due to natural internal variability, and that the climate system is quite insensitive to humanity’s greenhouse gas emissions.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dr. Wie-Hock “Willie” Soon of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics says the Sun is a primary driver of climate change — and has a far greater impact than changes in CO2.  Further, climate science is corrupted and co-opted by multiple non-scientific forces.  The movement toward renewable energy source, is not a sign of progress, but regression toward the lower energy densities of the pre-industrial age.

For all the focus on carbon dioxide, the most important greenhouse gas in the climate system is water vapor. And carbon dioxide is not a “pollutant,” as the term is conventionally used.

While it was true that the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide had been increasing and had passed 400 parts per million, the dominant effect of water vapor had helped flatten the greenhouse effect, such that the rise of global surface temperatures had slowed significantly.

This debate was always about left-wing ideology, quasi-religious hysteria, and "follow the money" corruption, never about "science" -- James Delingpole, journalist

"Renewable energy can't do the job. Government should switch green subsidies into R&D" -- Bill Gates

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~
Carbon dioxide is trace gas that constitutes only about 0.04 percent of earth's total atmosphere. That's just four 100th's of one percent! Concentration is expressed in parts per million. As of Spring 2015 levels were at 401.5 ppm. CO2 is just one of many atmospheric gases. Common sense dictates that such a tiny amount of gas cannot be having any major impact on temperatures.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 CO2 is vital for plant life. At current levels, plants are on a starvation CO2 diet. Global warming alarmists claim that species will become extinct if the planet warms. In reality warmer weather has increased biodiversity. Yet politicians, the media and alarmists have portrayed CO2 as a pollutant.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Follow the money

Thousands of scientists are being paid handsomely to find a connection between human carbon emissions and the climate. Hardly any have been paid to debunk anthropogenic global warming. Much of the debunking work is left to grass roots volunteers.

 

From 1989 until 2009 the U.S. government spent more than $32.5 billion on climate studies. They additionally spent another $79 billion on climate change related technology research, foreign aid and tax breaks for "green energy."

Grant-seeking scientists and others can get very rich from a career in global warming. If you put global warming in your article or research proposal then you qualify for a lucrative government research grant!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"There doesn’t necessarily need to be a 
conspiracy. It doesn’t require any centrally coordinated deceit or covert instructions to operate. Instead it’s the lack of funding for the alternatives that leaves a vacuum and creates a systemic failure. The force of monopolistic funding works like a ratchet mechanism on science. Results can move in both directions, but the funding means that only results from one side of the equation get traction."

-- Science and Public Policy Institute

 

Again, follow the money.  Since a Global Warming/Climate Change Crisis event is an excellent opportunity for Centralized Government Regulation/Control, those who develop proof and imminence of the event will get a large portion of available Government funding. This leads to a scam of unprecedented scale.
