Thirty-Two Climate Change Predictions Proven False

Wall Street Journal:
Climate Change Alarmism Is ‘a Real Mental Disorder’

Climate
alarmists’ overwrought accounts of hot summer weather are “fueling mental
derangements,” writes the Wall Street Journal’s Allysia Finley in
a searing op-ed Monday.
It is
not the weather itself, but the hyperbolic way it is reported that spreads
panic, Finley insists, since in the past
“heat waves were treated as a normal part of summer,” whereas now they are
treated as harbingers of an impending climate apocalypse.
Knowingly
or not, mainstream media have been complicit in spreading “climate
hypochondria,” she writes, which simply does not match the reality of what is
happening to the weather and the threats this may or may not pose.
“It
isn’t difficult to notice that today’s snowflakes consider hot weather
aberrant, similar to how they perceive normal feelings such as anxiety or
sadness,” Finley asserts. “But there’s nothing normal about climate anxiety,
despite the left’s claims to the contrary.”
Daily
data back up Finley’s contentions. On Sunday, The Messenger reported that given the
summer’s extreme heat, “we may not live to see climate’s ‘new normal.’” The
article goes on to make the scientifically untenable claim that “thousands of
deaths” from excessive July heat “can be attributed to human emissions of greenhouse
gases.”
The
article also repeats warnings of a climate “tipping point” beyond which
humanity is doomed, a proposal that further stokes the climate hysteria
underscored by Finley.
During a
local telecast, Florida meteorologist Steve MacLaughlin uttered a similar
threat, assuring viewers he fears we “have reached a point we cannot return
from.”
“This is
the first time that I’ve been overly concerned that we have reached a point we
cannot return from,” MacLaughlin said in a weather report for NBC6 South
Florida.
“In 25
years of broadcasting, I’ve never uttered these words on TV before,” the
five-time Emmy-winning reporter wrote on Twitter. “I try to stay positive. I
report on not just the problem, but the solution. I try to not be alarmist. But
with corals, sirens should be blaring.”
Meanwhile,
on Monday the Washington Post declared that the world
is “boiling,” echoing breathless predictions from U.N. Secretary General
António Guterres, who stated last Thursday that “the era of global boiling has
arrived.”
The
once-sober Associated Press joined in the melee,
reporting Monday that as climate change produces hotter and longer heat waves,
air conditioning “is now a matter of survival.”
Most
people can read these reports and take them with a grain of salt, mentally
toning down the obvious hyperbole and exercising critical thinking to form an
objective opinion of the situation. They may consider, for instance, that many
more people die each year from cold weather than from heat, or that globally
fewer and fewer people die every year from weather-related events.
The
problem, Finley suggests, is for those who are swept along by the alarmism,
allowing themselves to be overwhelmed by irrational fear from prophecies of a
rapidly imploding world.
“Climate hypochondriacs deserve to be treated with compassion, much like anyone who suffers from mental illness,” she concludes. “They shouldn’t, however, expect everyone else to enable their neuroses.”

Climate Change Fascists in Australia tell children to send malware propaganda to their own grandparents !
By Jo Nova
Malware to save the planet eh?
The Australian Youth Climate Coalition
(AYCC) is asking supporters to send deceptive links out to friends and family
that look like a cookie recipe but embed software cookies instead on the
victim’s computer. The digital cookies then pushes green climate videos into
their feeds, (as if the ABC news wasn’t loaded enough).
Look out for any links to oneminutecookie.com.
The AYCC gets about $3m in donations,
and even visits schools, teaching children how to cheat and lie to save the
planet, or something like that. What are good family relationships built on
after all, if not deception? What is science if it is not propaganda?
These are all good questions to raise
with the children in your life and the schools in your area. Don’t wait
for an email to arrive, thank the AYCC for providing the opportunity to start
the conversation now.
If the believers are so caring,
ethical and moral why are they teaching children it’s OK to deceive family
members? Is this the kind of “fair and just” world we want to live in?
Call up schools and the local P&C
and ask if they are aware the AYCC — which runs programs in schools — teaches children to
fool parents and grandparents and use malware. Are these the kind of
family values that belong in our schools? Will the local school guarantee that
they will not allow this group to manipulate children?
The Australian exposed their crooked game this
week, and traffic to
oneminutecookies.com has fallen to zero. So presumably the link trap will change.
(The campaign has been put on hold).
Reporter Joseph Lam spoke to cyber
security experts at Check Point Research:
The company’s tech evangelist Ashwin
Ram, one of Australia’s top 100 Innovators, said the technique was not common
but was something he imagined cyber criminals would use as part of
phishing campaigns.
Mr Ram said cookies were used to
“enhance the user experience”, but in the case of AYCC campaign, “it looks like
the goal here was to lure sceptics of climate change to oneminutecookie.com”.
He adds: “While the site looks innocent, a victim’s browser will store cookies
that will affect their browsing experience by displaying content to support a
particular narrative.”
If the evidence for climate change is
so overwhelming, why don’t they use that to win friends and influence people
instead of phishing tricks that criminals might use?
The best lesson children can learn
today is that fascists and communists have always taught children to lie. It’s
a means to an end . Read the confessions of a Red Guard —
“I have led a life haunted by guilt”. Raised fists might not be the symbol that lifts you.
