From article Obama and the false prophets of climate alarmism. Christopher Tremoglie. November 11, 2021
For a
media that allegedly hates lying former presidents, there sure seems to be a
deafening silence when former President Barack Obama does it.
Speaking
before the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, Scotland, Obama blamed the Trump administration for
"active hostility toward climate science," NBC News reported .
In
doing so, Obama also peddled the same, tired, climate change cultist rhetoric
that many leftists embrace despite their bearing no relation to science.
…
“You’ve
been bombarded with warnings about what the future will look like if you don’t
address climate change,” Obama said.
“And,
meanwhile, you’ve grown up watching many of the adults who are in a position to
do something about it either acting like the problem doesn’t exist or refusing
to make the hard decisions needed to do something about it.”
But what if the “warnings” are hype and not based
on any sort of scientific consensus?
…
In 2019, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
famously declared the world had 12 years to fix carbon emissions or we would
cross a point of no return.
This
was just the latest doomsday prediction by a climate change cult desperate to
make people take their issue seriously.
Yet,
in March 2019, the Associated Press accurately reported that there is no
"scientific consensus" on such a claim.
…
Then,
later in the year AOC walked back the
warning and criticized people for taking her literally and seriously.
“This
is a technique of the GOP, to take dry humor + sarcasm literally and ‘fact
check’ it,” AOC tweeted.
“Like
the ‘world ending in 12 years’ thing, you’d have to have the social
intelligence of a sea sponge to think it’s literal.”
Dry
humor, huh?
If
Obama wants to know why people are skeptical of climate change, he should ask
AOC.
…
In
1970, one of the first “we’re all going to die because of pollution” warnings
occurred when Harvard biologist, George Wald, warned, “Civilization will end
within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken.”
Fifty
years later, we are still here.
If Obama wants to blame why people are
skeptical of climate change claims, he should start with the original alarmist,
George Wald.
…
In
2008, former Vice President Al Gore, while speaking in Germany, stated “the
entire North polar ice cap may well be completely gone in 5 years.”
Yet,
here we are in 2021, and it is not even close to coming true.
Despite
some ice loss last decade that garnered the attention of scientists around the
world, Arctic sea ice is currently
growing faster than ever before on record.
…
If
Obama wants to blame the Trump administration for climate change skepticism, he
should probably start with the inaccuracies of environmentalist fanatics.
The
cultist, alarmist, climate change lies have continued for decades.
James Hansen lectured Congress in 1989,
proclaiming Manhattan's West Side Highway would be underwater by 2019.
…
Some
scientists predicted around the same time that the Maldives would be underwater
by 2018.
Obviously,
that didn't happen.
It is
not close to happening now.
Today, you can't even afford real estate in
the Maldives — that's how worried people are who actually have something at
stake in that nation's 1,200 islands, not one of which went underwater
in the last 35.
But
the idea of whole nations being washed away — in the late 1980s, they used to
claim this was going to happen to Egypt as well, a claim you never see anymore
— captures the imagination, so they keep repeating it.
…
Glacier National Park once had signs posted
throughout stating there would not be any glaciers by 2020.
They had to remove the signs when those
claims turned out to be hilariously incorrect.
…
Obama
and other climate change cultists have been persistently wrong in nearly every
warning they have given about the ramifications of climate change.
Their
false prophecies are legion, and they go back at least half a century.
Yet people still pump out these doomsday
predictions and accompany them with sloganeering such as, “Trust the science.”
Well,
the science is wrong, and so is everyone saying these things.
…
Human
activity may be affecting world temperatures, but that doesn't validate
whatever claims and warnings activists and politicians make about the future.
Many
of them are completely baseless.
Even scientists are not always above making
extremely unscientific predictions.
Obama
has proven to be a false prophet when it comes to climate change.
Then
again, so, too, has nearly everyone who made predictions.
It is
time to start acknowledging these lies and vigorously pushing back against
them.

Just joking.

“Climate experts
believe the next ice age is on its way. Recent evidence shows it could come
sooner than anyone expected. According to some climatologists within a lifetime
we might be living in the next ice age.”

The
current period of natural, cyclical rising temperatures is magic and a dream
for negative misery-aspiring Democrats and socialists.
We
and They see and know zat dem anti-economy grow, penury-equality-aspiring
misery-wuving (we’re united victims) socialists have been disappointed by the
past repeated failures of socialism to take hold and wrest freedom, prosperity,
and happy from the U.S. and drive us All down and back to miserable Old.
Global
warming has been seized upon and is being turned into an effective tool for
reaching their now-within-reach goal of miserable global socialism.
