Do you believe in "Global Warming?" Or "Climate Change." Or "Climate Chaos." Or whatever they're choosing to call it these days?
Whether you do or not likely depends upon your age. And to an extent where you live. And also your political leanings. And whether or not you're religious, also. And most importantly, how much common sense you possess.
Common sense, I might add here, is in dangerously short supply...
If you do believe in "that," you're likely young. As in school age. That's because your teachers brainwashed you into believing that if you drive an SUV, or eat a steak, or use plastic straws, or fly in a jet, you're causing the Earth to warm up. Like, reeeely warm! And that's because your teachers' teachers brainwashed them. You see, this scam has been lurking around for decades, just waiting for the right moment to burst forth from its dank, dark hiding place into a huge, nonsensical tirade.
Sort of like that scary little bug-like creature in "Alien."
And if you live in a crowded, urban environment we know from surveys that you're more likely to buy into this crap. And also if you're a Democrat. They'll believe anything. Some of them even watch infamous tax cheat and rabid racist and bigot and homophobe "Reverend Al" on one of those opinion outfits that masquerades as a news channel. That tells you all you need to know about some Democrats, I'd say.
But hey, they're all wrong. There is no Global Warming. Oh, the Earth is going through a climactic adjustment where we're up a degree or so, a change from down a degree or so a few years back, but that's just normal. No need to freak out. The climate warms up at bit, and cools off a bit. Over the years. Over the centuries. Over the millennia. It's to be expected. You're not going to be dead in 12 years, as these dumbass weenies are telling us, unless you die from some other reason.
And I'd like to add right about here that looking to a Greta Thurnburg, famed Swedish 16-year old activist and self-identified-climatologist, and also Asberger's Syndrome sufferer, and ADHD and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder sufferer as well, and in my opinion child abuse victim, who said to the U.N. the other day, "You're bringing us all to mass extinction," for your scientific information, is quite a bit less than wise.
But hey, that's just me.
And if you're one of those who parrot that old "97% of climate scientists all agree!" crap, just remember that 97% of climate scientists all work for the Federal Government. They work for colleges, and universities, and think tanks, and NASA, and NOAA, and they receive monetary Federal grants they no doubt wish to continue. Telling us there's no climate problem would likely lead to their paychecks grinding to a screeching halt. The Government doesn't usually fund non-problems. Just check in with the Weather Channel or your local TV reporter if you'd like the truth about our climate.
Anyway, Those so-called "experts" have predicted we'll all be dead in 12 years if we don't stop doing everything that an industrialized society does. You know, like flying in planes, and driving in cars, and eating cheeseburgers. But I say the "experts" are all wrong. And they're all a bunch of clowns, too.
And if you doubt me, I'd suggest we take a look back at the predictions all the "experts" have made over the past 50 years or so to see just how expert they really were. And so, brought to you by The Chuckmeister's exhaustive research, here we go...
- 1967: A dire famine was forecast to occur by 1975 (no famine).
- 1968: Overpopulation will spread worldwide (it didn't).
- 1969: Everyone will disappear in a cloud of blue steam by 1989 (we're still here).
- 1970: A new Ice Age will appear by the year 2000 (it didn't).
- 1970: America will be subject to water rationing by 1974 and food rationing by 1980 (ummm, nope).
- 1970: Nitrogen buildup will make all land uninhabitable (no nitrogen).
- 1970: Decaying pollution will kill all the fish (fishing is still quite good, thank you).
- 1970: Killer bees will kill us all (we're still alive)!
- 1970: Urban citizens will have to wear gas masks by 1985 (no gas masks).
- 1971: A new Ice Age will be coming by 2020 or 2030 (or 2040 or 2050 or 2060?).
- 1972: A new Ice Age will appear by 2070 (or 2080, maybe?).
- 1974: Space satellites show a new Ice Age is coming fast (not that fast, apparently)!
- 1974: Is another Ice Age is upon us (another dumb prediction)?
- 1974: Ozone depletion will be a "great peril to life (or, not)."
- 1975: April 28th, Newsweek Cover: "Our Cooling Planet" (I guess that's why everyone dropped their subscriptions).
- 1976: Scientific consensus is that the planet is cooling, famines are now imminent (there's that "scientific consensus," again).
- 1977: Department of Energy said oil production would peak by the 1990's (it was wrong).
- 1980: D. of E. updates its prediction and now says oil production will peak by 2000 (wrong again).
- 1980: Acid rain will kill all life in our lakes (lakes are still doing just fine).
- 1978: No end in sight to 30-year cooling trend (I guess some think we found the end).
- 1988: Temperatures in D.C. will hit record highs (or record lows, whichever).
- 1988: Maldive Islands will be underwater by 2018 (news to the Maldivians).
- 1989: Rising sea levels will obliterate nations if nothing is done by 2000 (we've still got a lot of nations).
- 1989: New York City's Westside Highway will be underwater by 2019 (it's not).
- 1996: Oil production will peak by 2020 (wrong).
- 2000: Children won't know what snow is by the year 2010 (does this prognosticator do drugs?).
- 2002: Total famine in 10 years if we don't stop eating meat, fish and dairy (how about what's left?).
- 2002: Oil production will peak by 2010 (wrong again).
- 2004: Britain will be Siberia by 2024 (we still have a couple of years to find out, but the Brits don't seem too concerned).
- 2005: Manhattan Island will be underwater by 2015 (what's this obsession with drowning Manhattan?).
- 2006: We will experience "super hurricanes (I guess Katrina must have scared this person).
- 2008: The Arctic will be ice-free by 2018 (it's not).
- 2008: Climate genius Al Gore predicts an ice-free Arctic by 2013 (he was wrong, again).
- 2009: Climate genius Prince Charles told us we had 96 months to save the world (he was wrong, too).
- 2009: U.K.'s Prime Minister said we had 50 days to "save the planet from catastrophe." (50 days? Not 49 or 51?).
- 2009: Climate genius Al Gore moved his prediction of an ice-free Arctic out 'til 2014 (he was STILL wrong).
- 2013: Atlantic Magazine: The Arctic will be ice-free by 2015 (I always look to opinion magazines for my weather forecasts).
- 2014: Only 500 days before "climate chaos! (sorry, I must have missed it)"
And, of course, I have to add the fact that our ex-Prez and famed Global Warming-believer Obama just purchased an expansive Martha's Vineyard $15.7 Million Dollar mansion, on the water. I'm pretty sure he's not expecting the rise of the sea level anytime soon, making him also a raging hypocrite).
And to paraphrase ex-V.P. Albert Gore, "The Earth's got a fevah' and only a huuuuuge new tax can fix it!"
Sorry experts, sorry scientific consensus, you were all wrong. And sorry also to all the bozos running for POTUS 2020, and all the blow-dried talking heads on the Telly, and all the climate alarmists who are fundraising off their pitiful cries for action, and all the Hollywood celebs who have nothing better to command their time but lecturing us, you were wrong. And ARE wrong!
And sorry, too, to a poor, misguided teenager who's been fed a steady diet of alarmism, and quite possibly an unhealthy dose of child abuse, and feels the need to share her fears with the world.
So stop all the "sky is falling" crap and get real; we're not going to die from "climate change" in 12 years, or 20 years, or 50 years. It's nothing but a "sky is falling scam designed to scare those easily swayed into opening their wallets and paying a huge new tax. And those who are so publicly concerned about nations polluting our skies would do well to address their concerns to China and India, the two countries most responsible for greenhouse gas emissions.
But they won't. They know that would do no good. So they continue to try and hipppppmotize the teaming masses into joining their illicit crusade. But for those of you who think for yourselves, keep on doing your part to use less natural resources, and don't litter. And hope that this mass hysteria, promulgated by your friendly Democrat Party and all those pesky "experts," passes real soon...
You're welcome...
