About Climate Science 1

Among other unethical undertakings the Biden Administration is going all out with their false claims of the looming and totally unfounded travesty we are facing from global warming/climate change. What they are doing is not based on actual science. It is instead based on their left wing politics. They are singularly focused on human causes and totally disregard natural causes that have been the drivers of climate change throughout history. In order to get their way they need to instill fear in the human population to legitimize their theft of funding needed to accomplish their Green New Deal which is a vital ingredient in their role in aiding globalists implementation of their new world order/global reset initiative. Hence, their unfounded claim that human activity is the cause of climate change. They need funding for their devious purposes. In other words they subvert the scientific process by pre-determining that humans are the cause. That is the worst possible abuse of science. This item lays out facts that support that charge.  By reading the below items the truth of their lies should become patently obvious.

Everyone knows that former President Obama signed on to the notion that by not attending to the so called "settled" climate science charge that humans are destroying the planet and disaster looms if something is not done soon. Now President Biden has doubled down on the issue and has gone even further than Obama. Here is what a scientist who worked in Obama's administration recently had to say. Quote: "Former President Barack Obama’s undersecretary for the Department of Energy, Steven Koonin, said that science does not support the “hysteria” of the Biden administration’s stance on the global “climate crisis.” “What I realized, is that, although you hear people talking about ‘we’re going to believe in the science, the science is settled, we’ve got an existential crisis,'” Koonin told Fox News on Thursday. “When you actually read the science, it doesn’t support that kind of hysteria at all.” 
      The physicist and New York University professor was responding to President Joe Biden’s speech Thursday morning on the first day of the virtual Leaders Summit on Climate. During his speech, Biden said that scientists have noted that the current decade will be crucial to address the climate crisis and he wants to listen to the science. Koonin explained that the assessment reports from the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the United States’ National Climate Assessment actually don’t support drastic changes to stop climate change, as Biden asserted. Although temperatures are rising globally and have risen by about 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit in the last century, Koonin said that humans have made advances like expanding food sources and accessing electricity. “Eventually we will probably need to do something about this, but the scope and scale of what the Biden administration proposed for the U.S., I think is just not there in the data. It’s not there in the science,” he said. “I prefer to see us take a much more measured and thoughtful approach to doing this.” He even said that what Biden's plan includes will probably not work as advertised. He added this: "Koonin argued that these lofty goals may not be attainable. The ambition to have a high percent of weather-dependent renewables on the electrical grid is something I would question,” he said. “The wind doesn’t blow all the time, the sun doesn’t shine all the time. And you’ve got to have backup systems for when that happens.” Koonin advised exploring geoengineering options or creating a better understanding of how to pull carbon dioxide out of the air."     Ex-Obama Admin Scientist Slams Biden's 'Climate Crisis' Narrative: Data 'Doesn't Support That Kind of Hysteria' (westernjournal.com)


Here's more. Quote: "Democrats and their media lapdogs are rabidly hyping the bogus narrative that climate change is an imminent “existential threat” to mankind as part of a cynical move to promote left-wing agendas. That’s the takeaway from a Fox News interview with physicist Steven Koonin, who offered scientific support to those who believe grifting climate alarmists are flippantly weaponizing this sham talking point to enrich and empower themselves. “It’s a fiction of the media and the politicians who like to promote that notion,” Koonin said on Fox Nation’s “Tucker Carlson Today.” Lest anyone dismiss Koonin as “right-wing,” it bears pointing that he was undersecretary for science in former President Barack Obama’s Department of Energy. The theoretical physicist and engineering professor is currently the director of the Center for Urban Science and Progress at New York University. Despite the nonstop environmental fearmongering from Democrats and the left-wing media, he said “human influences” are not responsible for natural disasters such as hurricanes and intermittent heatwaves, which are just as common today as they were in 1900. “The warmest temperatures have not gone up in the last 60 years,” Koonin said. Koonin scoffed at Biden administration officials such as Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and jet-setting climate czar John Kerry, saying they mindlessly parrot the term “existential threat” when discussing the climate even though they don’t understand what they’re talking about. “I don’t think the science says what … Secretary Pete thinks it says,” he said. “In fact, I can guarantee you he’s never read the science.” Koonin continued: “Fact, I can guarantee you that Sen. [Bernie] Sanders, President [Joe] Biden, Ambassador Kerry, [Energy] Secretary [Jennifer] Granholm have never read the science — because you need to be a scientist in order to do that. And in fact, when you read it, there’s very little in terms of extreme weather that has changed over the last many decades.”  There is more... so read the entire link.    Physicist to Tucker Carlson: Climate Change Is 'Fiction of the Media,' Not an 'Existential Threat' (westernjournal.com

Yet more cogent analysis. Quote: "Democrats want to hand climate science over to the mob. The House of Representatives had an opportunity this week to take meaningful steps toward combating climate change. But instead of proposing bipartisan reforms that would enable new clean energy technologies to flourish, Democrats opted to politicize science and add costly new regulatory hurdles that would do nothing to reduce global emissions.  Inside the new 900-page Clean Economy Jobs and Innovation Act is a proposal to adopt a new "community-based science" model that allows for “voluntary public participation in the scientific process.” This means that instead of allowing scientists to have the final say in conducting experiments, collecting data, interpreting results, and developing new technologies, the so-called “party of science” would let everyone have a say. They call it the “democratization of science” — and if you’re against it, you’re probably against democracy, too. In another attempt to politicize science, the Clean Economy Jobs and Innovation Act proposes establishing a new 26-person Environmental Justice Advisory Council to ensure the “fair treatment” of different groups based on race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. They would accomplish this by taking the already cumbersome National Environmental Policy Act review process, which is used to approve new energy and infrastructure projects, and require these projects to undergo an "environmental justice" review. This review would need the consultation and meaningful participation of different groups, likely leading to long and costly litigation. Instead of accomplishing net-zero carbon emissions, this proposal would result in net-zero job growth. And instead of more justice, the Environmental Justice Advisory Council would result in fewer clean energy options for underserved communities. Democrats claim to have the moral high ground when talking about their lofty goals of decarbonizing our economy in the next decade. But by prioritizing complex regulations and woke mandates over innovation and markets, they curtail the causes they claim to support."  And, "Instead of furthering an agenda that’s designed to appease far-Left activist mobs, Democrats should work across the aisle with their Republican colleagues who are offering serious, science-based solutions for a clean energy future. So, don’t believe the false narrative that Republicans aren’t doing anything to reduce global emissions. Considering the anti-science framework of the Clean Economy Jobs and Innovation Act, it’s quite the opposite. Republicans are serious, and it’s time Democrats are, too."    Democrats want to hand climate science over to the mob (msn.com)  

No responsible person denies the very real fact that climate change occurs. The question is whether or not any changes are, in fact, because of Human Activity. History proves that climate change has occurred over and over again without any human cause. Yet the fear mongers pushing the current narrative assigns the entire cause to human activity. Most sane scientists not caught up in the "human cause only" web cast by the UN's IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) offer much credible evidence that man has little if any real impact on climate change. But, left wing advocates want nothing to do with natural causes or documented history. They have an agenda and intend to stick with it. Things like the sampling that follows are dismissed since they do not involve human activity.  Climate Change 101: The Evidence Humans Aren’t Destroying the Climate | The Freedom Pub (heartland.org) ;  The climate is changing, but not just because of humans.
