is officially over. Yeah, and it’s always been just a scam.
I remember a few years ago wearing a shirt that said, “Together We Can Stop Global Whining.” Some nasty old Karen (psychologist) stopped me and berated me for wearing such a shirt. She was coming to me on a weekend (buttonholed me) for a job, and I was very happy to have a good reason to not ever hire her!
But anyway, the scam has hit the rocks.
It’s nice when something you knew was a fraud all along turns out to be a fraud, but it’s even nicer when the people perpetrating the fraud admit it was a fraud all along.
“The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has just published the next generation of climate scenarios,” science policy analyst Roger Pielke Jr wrote late last week, and in what he called “big news,” the new framework “eliminated the most extreme scenarios that have dominated climate research over much of the past several decades.”
… Without getting too technical — you can read Pielke’s full report for that, should you feel the need to go shoulder-deep in the weeds — the upshot is that the previous frameworks lacked “any systematic effort to evaluate plausibility of scenarios.” Now, however, “the new HIGH scenario is exploratory — a thought experiment, not a projection.” [emphasis added]
The bottom line is that the climate scam is over. Yes, it will take a while for these results to percolate down to the grassroots nut jobs, but well. And fewer children will be indoctrinated by their school-teachers on this.
Pielke added that “users of climate models and model output based on legacy scenarios will now face decisions about if and how they’d like to realign with the latest scientific understandings versus continuing to rely on outdated research.”
OK, so what is the next scare scam? Probably an ice age. But for sure it will be something. Probably, it will take refuge in the idea that there is “climate change” and that can mean the temperatures get higher or lower. So really, no matter what happens it will be “proof” of “climate change.”
It’s not science. It is a rubber sheet that can be stretched to cover whatever cult belief comes to the fore. Trust me, there will be something else. It is a “heads I win, tails you lose” proposition.
