Ah! We have great leaders who are
going to fight ‘climatechange’. Really? The fact that climates, in the plural,
have been changing ever since the Planet Earth was born, seems not to have been
noted by the readers of the Guardian.
Climate is always changing – that is
what it does, and has done for millions of years. How do these opponents of
climatechange want to proceed? Get real! They wish to control Greenhouse Gases! Well, that is a laugh for a start. 99% of the atmosphere
is composed of Nitrogen and Oxygen. Only 1% of the atmosphere is composed of
Greenhouse Gases. And what is the predominate Greenhouse Gas? I will tell you, in case you do not know, or in case you
have forgotten. 95% is Water Vapour! Do you hear cries that we should stop
Water Vapour in its tracks, that we should secrete it underground, that we
should not ‘emit’ water vapour? No, nowhere do we hear that Water Vapour
should be somehow curbed. Why! Even those who live in the cloud cuckoo land,
that is the chosen zone of The Guardian environmentalists, do not cry out
against Water Vapour. Why is that? Surely clouds and humidity have a direct
effect upon the temperatures here on this blessed planet?

So then, is there a cry to stop
methane in its tracks? Is there a campaign to banish methane from our soils? Of
course some wily Professors visit the frozen wastes, the permafrost, and
suggest that the Global Warming that is not taking place will release methane
in huge quantities. Anything for a good story in the Press and an increased
government grant!
No, no, no. The fight against
‘climatechange’, indeed the whole charge against changes in climate, is
concentrated upon one small trace gas, Carbon Dioxide. The only weapon at the
disposal of the ignoramuses, who govern us, is to cut emissions of Carbon
Dioxide. Wow!
So let us get some facts straight.
400 parts per million translates into 0.04 % of the atmosphere. According to
the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Great Nature produces 97.1% of
that amount! That leaves just 2.9% of the 0.04 % is produced apparently by
humans. Ah! My warmist friends nod sagely, it is that 2.9% of the 0.04% that
tips the balance! What utter poppycock!
Besides which we now know that the
Greenhouse Gases cool the Earth, as proposed by NASA.
Global
warming debunked: NASA report verifies carbon dioxide actually cools atmosphere
(NaturalNews) Practically everything
you have been told by the mainstream scientific community and the media about
the alleged detriments of greenhouse gases, and particularly carbon dioxide,
appears to be false, according to new data compiled by NASA’s Langley Research
Center. As it turns out, all those atmospheric greenhouse gases that Al Gore
and all the other global warming hoaxers have long claimed are overheating and
destroying our planet are actually cooling it, based on the latest evidence.
As reported by Principia
Scientific International (PSI), Martin Mlynczak and his colleagues over at
NASA tracked infrared emissions from the earth’s upper atmosphere during and
following a recent solar storm that took place between March 8-10. What they
found was that the vast majority of energy released from the sun during this
immense coronal mass ejection (CME) was reflected back up into space rather
than deposited into earth’s lower atmosphere.
The result was an overall cooling
effect that completely contradicts claims made by NASA’s own climatology
division that greenhouse gases are a cause of global warming. As illustrated by
data collected using Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission
Radiometry (SABER), both carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitric oxide (NO), which
are abundant in the earth’s upper atmosphere, greenhouse gases reflect heating
energy rather than absorb it.
“Carbon dioxide and nitric oxide are
natural thermostats,” says James Russell from Hampton University, who
was one of the lead investigators for the groundbreaking SABER study. “When the
upper atmosphere (or ‘thermosphere’) heats up, these molecules try as hard as
they can to shed that heat back into space.”
So the desperate champions who are out to fight against ‘climatechange’ are
actually attempting to cut 0.00116% of the atmosphere. Does that not want to
make you laugh? Or simply weep in desperation? How is it possible that grown
men and women could be such wallies?
It reminds me of a great friend who
wished to embrace Islam. He was told that he had to be circumcised. But, he
protested, I am already circumcised. What else do they want to cut off?
The sheer idiocy of cutting
emissions of Carbon Dioxide has to be seen to be believed. Everybody with a
minimum knowledge of Biology knows that green plants love Carbon Dioxide and
could do with 1,000 parts per million, both to aid growth and to provide the
Oxygen which we humans and all the
animal kingdom have need of.
To fight against ‘climatechange’ is
to fight against Great Nature, effectively to declare that man in his ignorance
is greater than Almighty God. But, of course, those who want to fight the
forces of Nature don’t believe, don’t accept, the possibility of intelligence
higher than their own.
There is this blind
urge to demonise fossil
fuels, which are the main providers of
power for electricity, which distinguishes the modern world from the Middle Ages. The Luddites wish to put the clock back, and most of them
don’t even know what Carbon Dioxide is, in any case. Just imagine if they
succeeded, just imagine if we had to rely on the wind and the sun, all our
computers would go down, all our trains would not run, all our aeroplanes would
not fly and none of us would get paid our salaries or our pensions. Without
fossil fuels we would take a gigantic step backwards into the Dark Ages. Is
that what we really want?
