Suppport for Climate Alarmism Falling

Timothy Birdnow

As the Ruling Class tightens the screws to the Western World's economy the public is growing increasingly restive. Belief in manmade climate change is waning even as our betters tell us it's "settled science".

Climate Scepticism on the Rise Throughout the World

FTA:

Perhaps the most surprising statistic from the Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago (EPIC) survey is that 70% of Americans are unwilling to spend more than $2.50 a week to combat climate change. Nearly four in 10 Americans said they were unwilling to pay a couple of dimes. Despite decades of relentless green doomsday agitprop designed to corral populations into living under a collectivist Net Zero-ordered society, it appears that the vast majority of Americans are unwilling to pay even the chump change in their back pockets to stop the climate changing.

Surveys such as EPIC and IPSOS speak to the fundamental flaw in the ‘settled’ science surrounding the suggestion that humans burning fossil fuel are causing the climate to breakdown. The hypothesis is unproven – not a single science paper provides conclusive proof. Natural causes and the proposition that carbon dioxide becomes ‘saturated’ beyond certain atmospheric levels are more convincing explanations for scientific observations. Fears that mainstream climate science is heavily corrupted by faulty data, pseudoscientifi c modelling and outright political cherry-picking are becoming more widespread.

Interestingly, the recent overall fall in support for human-caused climate change in the U.S. is due to Democrats and Independents.

The IPSOS survey found that levels of climate scepticism were similar in all age categories. As with EPIC, it found that political leanings were decisive. In the seven countries where political input was sought, 28% of supporters of the Left turned out to be climate sceptics, compared with 50% on the Right.

Acording to the FIRES report, written by a number of British academics, Net Zero means just 60% of current levels of food cooking, heating and energy by 2050. Within less than 30 years there will be no beef and lamb, and all flying and shipping will have to stop. Road use will be restricted to 60% of today’s levels. There will be no cement, and the only steel available will be recycled. Norman Fenton, the recently retired Professor of Risk Information Management at Queen Mary University of London, noted that these conclusions are consistent with UN/WEF Agenda 21, the UN ‘World at 2050’ agenda and the WEF Great Reset. The latter, noted Fenton, incorporates ‘Build Back Better’ in which you’ll "own nothing and be happy”, and eat bugs instead of meat.

Another senior academic, the nuclear physicist Dr. Wallace Manheimer, recently warned that Net Zero would lead to the end of modern civilisation. The new green infrastructure will fail, cost trillions, trash large portions of the environment, and be entirely unnecessary. Manheimer noted that before fossil fuel became widely used, energy was provided by people and animals. Because so little energy was produced, "civilisation was a thin veneer atop a vast mountain of human squalour and misery, a veneer maintained by such institutions as slavery, colonialism and tyranny”.

Tim adds:

Basically what we have witnessed is a generation long War of the Worlds scare. Like the people running for the hills when Orson Wells aired his radio version of a Martian invasion, we've had people running for cover from literally hot air. It's all fake and phoney and designed to take power from the People and consolidate it into a few governments and corporations and NGO's.

It's worked, by and large. The assumption now is it's real and we base policy on it.

This whole Ukrainian war, for instance, wouldn't be happen ing had Joe Biden not killed off the American oil industry; it made Russian oil so profitable that Putin could afford to invade the Ukraine and keep fighting. Had Biden taken steps to increase supply the demand would have dropped and Putin would have been defunded. There are real world consequences for this, and lives are being lost.

The fact is this was always about the Great Reset. The intention was to hamstring Western economies so the Third World could catch up and there would be economic parity between all peoples. That's fair, isn't it?  Make everyone poor so the poor can be equal!

And by limiting wealth it must be carefully doled out by unbiased parties, namely, governments. It's the way to have a bloodless socialist revolution.

And in the process the world's population will shrink, one of the fondest wishes of the Malthusian Left, which has always been about getting rid of the "dirt people" and creating a pastoral paradise with just a few of the upper crust.

Everything the upper class Left has ever wanted is mixed into the Climate Change bag. Getting things like the Paris Accords in place was the equivalent of Christmas to them.

But now the public is starting to realize the Boy was crying wolf all along.

Is it too late to stop them? I fear it just may be. They won't let this go without a nasty fight. And they own the means to disseminate information, which is why they can stifle the opposition. The Climategate e-mails should have told us the dirty tricks they were willing to play. And the fact NOAA and NASA regularly fudge data.

Sadly, it's taken this long for a sizable segment of the population to figure it out. It required pain in the pocketbook.

But, like all revolutions, once done they are very hard to undo. Counter-revolutions are tough. And that is what we must have now.
