'C3' the Skeptic	Blame it all on CO2	George Carlin on the 'Greens'

 

April 5, 2020 Versus June 15, 2020: Comparing U.S. State Covid-19 Death Rates

(click on to enlarge)

As the chart suggests, there are a large number of states that dealt with the Covid pandemic in a manner that caused excessive deaths.

Once the coronavirus pandemic has finally passed, a federal commission should be established to investigate those state government politicians and health bureaucrats that completely failed their citizens during this crisis. The total ineptness shown by some state officials should be identified, named and shamed. 

At a minimum, one would hope that the constituents of the states that became needless Covid killing grounds should vote responsible politicians and their associated party out of office.

This is doubly true since many of the same states and politicians allowed their major cities to be looted and burned-out during the recent BLM riots.

Notes: The death data plotted on adjacent chart is from the Covid Tracking Project and state population figures used to calculate the deaths per 100K is from Wikipedia. Why April 5 date? Out of convenience - that was the very first date that 'C3' had calculated the death/100k figure for all states, plus D.C.

Remember When Climate Experts & MSM Were Fear-Mongering About The Amazon Being Destroyed By Droughts Caused By CO2? Never Mind

(click on to enlarge)

Back around 2005-2010, the climate change experts and the mainstream media were going on and on about the Amazon devastation due to droughts.

The implication was that the droughts were due to human caused climate change, and the droughts, in turn, would cause more climate change that would then cause the droughts to worsen - a prospective positive feedback loop prediction that did not bode good tidings for humans.

But skeptics around the world challenged these conclusions for obvious reasons.

Major regional droughts have always happened and they were not driven by human CO2 emission activity in the form of fossil fuel consumption. Plus, surprise, droughts have this habit of ending, which are then followed by periods of plentiful rain.

The 2005 and 2010 Amazon droughts were no different.

As it turns out, the skeptics were right again and the climate experts; and the expert/MSM coalition were again victims of their own failed prediction hubris.

In a recent peer-reviewed study, nine scientists reconstructed the precipitation totals for the eastern equatorial Amazon basin of Brazil.

The adjacent chart depicts their findings. Simply stated, there are periods of excess rainfall and there are subsequent periods of drought over the 230-year period. The dramatic precipitation fluctuations are part of the natural cycle and those droughts taking place in the 21st century are part of this natural pattern.

From a review of the study:

"Examination of the precipitation record reveals, in the words of the authors, that it is "dominated by interannual and subdecadal variability, not unlike the instrumental precipitation totals for the eastern Amazon study area." Focusing on such variability captured in the reconstruction, Granato-Souza et al. note the existence of two extended wet episodes, a mid-twentieth century period from 1942-1956 and an earlier late nineteenth century period between 1882 and 1903, and one exceptional extended dry episode that occurred during the years 1864 and 1881.....A longer-term perspective of the moisture regime clearly indicates there is no compelling support for that contention given that both wet and dry periods of greater duration and magnitude have naturally occurred throughout the record despite atmospheric CO2 concentrations being much lower than they are today."

Peer-Reviewed Study: Repeat Coral Bleaching Just Happens, No Humans or CO2 Needed

(click on image to enlarge)

A warm water coral reef provides the latest evidence that coral bleaching events occur with some regularity, and that there is always a reef recovery, no matter how severe the bleaching.

A team of 15 researchers analyzed extracted coral reef cores from the equatorial Pacific's Jarvis Island.

The evidence they gathered indicates bleaching events were even taking place early in the 20th century, and that there appears to be a periodic 5-year repeat of the coral bleaching. 

Per a review of the peer-reviewed study:

"In contemplating the above findings, Barkley et al. say that their historical bleaching reconstruction "reveals a coral reef community that has bleached frequently, and at times catastrophically, yet appears to have maintained a healthy state over time."..."Barkley et al. note that "the record implies that the Jarvis coral community has bleached with varying degrees of severity every five years, on average"....while...."it was ranked among the healthiest of all ocean ecosystems, notwithstanding it has experienced repeated episodes of moderate to severe bleaching every five years."

"According to the authors, recurring bleaching events were also identified prior to the six decades of time focused on in their study (1960-2016). As noted, Barkley et al. report that "two cores extend back to the turn of the 20th century, and the earliest stress bands appear in these cores in 1912, indicating that bleaching occurred on Jarvis over 100 years ago."

"And, it suggests rising atmospheric CO2 and rising ocean temperatures over the course of the past century have had no measurable impact on either the frequency or severity of El Niño warming events."

COVID-19 Deaths/100K By State: The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

(click on to enlarge)

The Bad: At least as of May 5, 2020, the following states have proven to be rather inept in their containment of the lethal novel coronavirus: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Louisiana, District of Columbia, Michigan, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Illinois, Delaware, and Indiana.

These will be known as the 'Dirty 13' states.

The Ugly: Plus, a number of the above states have revealed themselves to be smitten with authoritarian dictatorial powers that is leading to unnecessary incitement of the populace.

Coronavirus health policy mismanagement and Venezuela-style totalitarianism is not a real good combination look for any state in America. 

The Good: It should be noted that those states that never enacted stay-at-home orders have some very envious results with lower than expected per capita deaths. Our supposed "experts" essentially predicted that the opposite would happen.

And those states that have already let their stay-at-home polices expire, either in late April or early May, have relatively good results when compared to the per capita deaths experienced in the 'Dirty 13' states.

Colorado is the only state with a Democrat governor that has decided to let its stay-at-home order expire. At 14.8 deaths per 100K, it is the closest to the 'Dirty 13.'

But that 14.8 translates into a living statistic of 99,985.2 per 100K. Thus, anyone currently living in that state has a hypothetical 99.985% chance of not subcumming to the CoronaCCPvirus.

In order for America's economy to survive and for getting people back to their prior quality of life standard, any state with a per capita death rate less than 20.0/100K ought to seriously consider ending their stay-at-home policy and get on with a 99.985% or better chance of life.

 

Note: May 5, 2020 deaths for each state were from this source.

Evidence Emerging That U.S. Blue State Liberal Ineptness Has Led To Excess Coronavirus Deaths

Below is the full list of U.S. states, and a large sample of European countries and territories, ranked by the number of coronavirus deaths per 100 thousand. The dataset for this table was pulled from www.worldometer.com, including the populations to calculate the deaths per 100k. (Data as of mid-afternoon April 23.)

As can be seen, quite a few U.S. states have achieved a low death count ranking, with many doing a better job than European counterparts.

At the bottom of the table, those countries and states that achieved a worse ranking than the overall position of the U.S. are highlighted in green and blue colors.

Note that every single U.S. state (and D.C.) at the bottom (highlighted in blue) are states with Democrat governors with major metropolitan centers controlled by Democrat mayors. As this evidence would suggest, inept polices by Democrat politicians have serious consequences for quality of life, especially during emergency periods.

When examining the U.S data more closely, there are 38 states that have less than 10 deaths per 100k (as of April 23, 2020). The average for those 38 states comes in at 3.7 deaths per 100k, which is quite respectable compared to many of the larger European countries.

Although these rankings will change over the next few weeks, one can already ascertain an appropriate strategy for dealing with the next pandemic, at least for the U.S.

All those states that have a ranking over '10' for the 2020 coronavirus would be put in a lock-down, including a travel quarantine when the pandemic occurs. There would need to be a strict adherence to Federal pandemic policies and plans by these states so that they do not endanger the lives of those who live in other states. The lock-down and quarantine would be implemented as soon as the CDC identifies a pandemic situation.

By following such a pandemic policy, states with good governance would better be able to avoid, for example, the sad situation that Indiana has found itself in due to bordering two terribly mismanaged Democrat controlled states, Michigan and Illinois. Due to its unfortunate geographical position, Indiana is the only Republican controlled state to exceed the 10 deaths per 100k mark.

Is The Established Pattern of Weekly Deaths For Flu & Pneumonia Since 2013 Changing Due to Coronavirus?

Are U.S. weekly total deaths increasing due to coronavirus? The answer is that they are doing the opposite since the peak of the flu season, which may surprise a lot of people

Weekly U.S. flu deaths are also showing a decline after this season's flu peak

And weekly pneumonia deaths were also on the decline from the flu peak. But in the very last week on the chart they jumped significantly.

One reason for this outcome may be the result of coronavirus infection deaths also being coded with associated pneumonia. Or actual COVID-19 deaths being inaccurately labeled as pneumonia deaths. 

These mortality statistics are heavily revised each week by the CDC as more complete information is submitted to CDC by the states.

The adjacent chart is a plot of this dataset from the U.S. CDC. Click on chart to enlarge.

(The very latest week of statistics was not included in the chart since it included a datapoint of only 27,500 total deaths for the week - that would be a record extreme low since 2013.)

CoronaCCPVirus: The Mainstream Media & Democrat Claim That It's All Trump's Fault

Do the facts regarding the COVID-19 virus support the claim that Trump is responsible for excess virus infections and deaths in the U.S.?

Not in the least.

The claims are a mere combination of political lies and self-serving propaganda, per the empirical evidence, as of the morning of April 19, 2020 from Worldometer.com.

Using the coronavirus and population data from that site, the adjacent table was constructed to identify the documented death and case characteristics for the 15 well established Western European countries versus the U.S.

While each individual country is much smaller than the U.S., the total of the 15 countries is similar in population size to that of America.

When the aggregate of European deaths and cases are compared to the U.S. totals, it is readily apparent that the overall results lean slightly in Trump's favor.

And that result is also seen in the per capita comparisons.

If Trump is to be held to perfect 20/20 hindsight by his critics, then that hindsight should be applied in a relative manner regarding the performance of the Western European country core.

As with every major issue that has confronted the nation over 3+ years, the never-ending obsession and hatred of Trump, by both Democrat and press elites, has completely derailed any chance of a rational and constructive collaboration on COVID-19 solutions.

Americans are suffering terribly at this time. History will show that the Democrats and the MSM truly have become enemies to the public interest and well being. Enemies to the point of taking the side of the lone perpetrator of the world's coronavirus outbreak, against the U.S.

Self-Inflicted Harm By Coronavirus Stupidity: From Computer Models To The Idiocracy of "Elites"

(click on to enlarge)

As this blog has pointed out multiple times, over the last 10+ years, computer simulation models are essentially worthless for policymaker decision making.

Mountains of evidence exist that models can't predict squat, which is a simple concept that seems not to be grasped by way too many policymakers and about 100% of the MSM press.

Model prediction failure is true, whether the issue is climate change or the COVID-19 pandemic or other policy issue.

Why then are computer simulation models used?

Their effectiveness lies not in prediction success but rather as convincing propaganda by scientists and media in order to induce fear and irrational hysteria.

And there is no doubt the past four weeks of the 'CoronaHysteria' has established, yet again, that computer models are proven to be terrible tools for predictions but great for propaganda purposes.

Adding to the misery of bad modeling output is the successful promulgation of the propaganda by the country's self-anointed elites, thus insuring stressful mayhem for the public coupled with vast unintended consequences.

Such as closing down an entire nation's economy that produces massive, record setting unemployment numbers and psychological wreckage in just a few short weeks.

And unfortunately, the elites' blind faith in "consensus" expertise leads to all sorts of proclamations and statements that are, more often than not, proven to be wrong, divisive, and exceptionally stupid to say in a group larger than two, let alone on a widely disseminated public forum that cable news provides.

One recent example of this level of elite stupidity is the following nugget of wisdom that MSNBC "journalist," Andrea Mitchell, seems to be pushing:

MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell and the Washington Post's Philip Rucker decided on Monday to place the blame for the current pandemic on President Trump and conservative red states "...that there were a number of people in red states early on who didn't heed the warnings to socially distance because they believed the President's false comments." 

Per the above chart, it is obvious that the red-state 'rubes' are not spreading the coronaCCPvirus to the blue states - that is an alternate reality fantasy. Instead, it is the direct opposite: the liberal/progressive states are the epicenter of disease and spreading it to the rest of the country. (New Yorkers fleeing to Florida, Puerto Rico and other locales comes to mind.)

For some, this empirical evidence suggests that the worst 9 states and the District of Columbia should be strictly quarantined, including the red-state of Louisiana that so foolishly allowed their famous and popular New Orleans Mardi Gras festival to proceed during the month of February. (Possibly the good red citizens of Louisiana should be forgiven since accountability rests with the Democrat idiocracy there - the state's governor and the mayor of New Orleans).

Maybe the key to blockading the coronavirus progression across the country is the total train/plane/car/bus travel curtailment for these virus-laden states - not the economically damaging state/local social distancing business closures.

And what about the effectiveness of those now infamous social distancing polices?

Well, the table below reveals the dates of key social distancing policies (ie, stay at home orders, school closings, non-essential business closings) enacted by each state in the best 10 and worst 10. One does not have to be a rocket scientist to realize that the date enactment of strict isolation policies is not well correlated with death outcomes per 100k population of the states.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Let it be said though, one significant advantage that red states have, besides their greater well of common sense, is the benefit of natural social distancing. Living farther apart is rewarded during a pandemic - no authoritarian social distancing policies required.

 

Note: Red states are those likely to vote Trump2020. Blues states are those likely to vote Biden2020. Michigan is considered by many to be a 'swing' state and thus gets the purple color. Dataset for the deaths/100k calculations comes from this site. Implementation (or not) dates of social distancing policies for each state can be found at this site. Computer simulations/models are a valuable tool for researchers investigating the impact of different policy scenario assumptions. Output from computer models is not evidence since it represents speculation based on assumptions. Computer modeling is not science. It is sophisticated crystal-balling utilized for business, for games of chance, for elections, and other endeavors, including science.

Study: The Surprising Decline of Severe Weather Hail Events During Period of Modern Global Warming

(click on to enlarge)

It is a sacrosanct belief of end-of-world cultists that the global warming since the onset of the large growth in consumer/industrial CO2 emissions would bring in its wake devastating and extreme severe-weather events.

But that has not been the case as a new peer-reviewed study discovered.

Researchers investigated the frequency of severe thunderstorms and hail events to determine if the significant regional warming across the Tibetan Plateau (TP) area had generated more such events.

From a review of the study...."despite considerable warming over the period 1960-2012, Zou et al. determined that there has been a statistically significant decline of 3.1 storms days per decade across the TP. Hail days, on the other hand, showed a slight increasing trend of 5.8% per decade from 1955-1980, but thereafter declined by a much larger 18.3% per decade over the period 1980-2012.....Consequently, they conclude that their results "imply that global warming is likely to cause a decrease in the conditions required for severe thunderstorm and hail formation in the TP over the next century.""

For those who keep abreast of climate empirical science, this is not a one-off study. The scientific literature overflows with studies refuting the doomer-alarmist predictions that an increased frequency and intensity of severe climate change weather events would develop - after 30+ years, it has simply not happened.

While this list is not comprehensive in any way, shape or form, it is indicative of the existing severe weather research available that refutes the spurious claims.

The Climate Emergency 'Tipping Point': Does The Empirical Science Verify or Reject The Doomsday Fears?

(click on to enlarge)

Fortunately for those who believe in empirical science, the facts are indisputable. The earth is not at risk of rapid global warming that would set off a soon-to-be 'climate emergency or 'climate crisis' tipping point.

We live in an era where cult-like beliefs have caused a great number of people to accept what resembles a prophecy about the world ending within 12 years, from a global warming 'tipping point' for the climate.

This fear-mongering myth takes the form that humanity is causing - due to fossil fuel emissions - a rapid acceleration of global temperatures that will wreak havoc and destruction as the tipping point is reached.

But is there actual empirical evidence that this doomer prophecy is playing out with a soon-to-be ending to civilization?

The included chart is a plot of the IPCC's gold-standard empirical global temperature data representing how fast/slow global temperatures are moving - it's a climate warming speedometer, so to speak.

A breakdown of the chart:

A.) There are 5 per century warming/cooling trends plotted for different time spans, for each month since the 1850s.

B.) The most volatile of the 5 is the one-year (12-mth) acceleration/deceleration trend in blue; the least volatile is the twenty-year (240-mth) cyan trend.

C.) The 12-mth speedometer of global warming reveals three definitive periods that approximated or exceeded a warming rate of 60°C per century, each prior to the 1950s - and none after. (see red squares)

D.) The 12-mth also has the most extreme per century cooling rates (-60°C) indicated by the blue squares - those two occasions were before the 1980s.

E.) Regarding the fairly consistent 240-mth (twenty year) moving temperature trend, the vertical cyan dashed lines mark three specific December months - December 1927, 1945 and 2019. The two former pre-1950 earlier periods have a per century warming rate that exceeded the December 2019 20-year warming rate.

The point of this chart?

It demonstrably proves, using the IPCC's own gold-standard of global warming data, that the speed of warming has not rapidly increased, and better yet for humanity, exhibits nothing to indicate that a climate emergency tipping point will soon occur, if ever.

It demonstrably provides evidence that warming and cooling trends are in constant up/down flux since the record of historical observed temperatures commenced.

Yes, the shorter time periods, especially the 1-year per century trend, exhibits an extreme, even scary volatility that reaches some very alarming per century warming rates but that's been the case forever regardless of greenhouse gases. And in all cases of extreme warming trend rates, the temperature trends eventually return to lower rates that even include global cooling trends.

Importantly, these warming trend patterns have taken place during both relative stable CO2 emissions and rapidly increasing CO2 greenhouse emissions since 1950, with the recent concomitant sharp rise in atmospheric CO2 levels, as the table below indicates.

This is good news for the world's masses since it's quite evident that the very foundation of the climate doomsday prophecy has no factual or evidentiary basis. The world, as we know it, will be very much the same twelve years from now unless Earth is impacted by an asteroid or a massive meteorite.

Note: Excel was used to calculate trends and plot chart from the HadCRUT 4.6 land/sea monthly temperature dataset for the month ending December 2019. Excel used to calculate CO2 related percentage changes from the 2019 BP Energy Statistical Review (CO2 emissions XLSX tab) and NOAA's atmospheric CO2 level data.

The Debunking Never Ends: "Expert" Computer Climate Models Fail In Arctic, Study Finds

(click on to enlarge)

In the real world, climate model simulations have been self-debunking over recent decades due to the constant prediction failures.

And the latest embarrassing example of model prediction failure is very relevant to the doomsday Arctic meltdown myth that the anti-science 'climate emergency' cult pushes.

A new peer-reviewed study by a group of researchers set out to determine the accuracy of top-tier climate model predictions of Arctic warming rates versus the actual Arctic warming rate. Their research involved the output of the same 36 climate models used for the UN's IPCC work.

This chart is a snapshot of their work, which visually portrays the computer climate model simulations over a 138-year period, from 1880 to 2017, and how they consistently overestimate how fast the Arctic is warming since around 1950.

Per the study's findings: "...the model-estimated rate of secular warming (the solid red line) increased quite sharply across the 138-year period, rising from a value of around 0 °C per decade at the beginning of the record to a value of 0.35 °C per decade at the end. Observations, in contrast, started off with a higher warming rate than that of the models (a rate of 0.13 °C per decade; the solid black line), but dipped below the rate of warming predicted by the models around the middle of the record, thereafter experiencing a lower rate of warming relative to the models through the end of the record. By the end of the record, the model-predicted secular rate of warming was 67% higher than that determined from observations (0.21 °C). Thus, the figure shows an increasing disparity between modelled and observed warming rates that starts around the middle of the record and grows to 0.14 °C per decade by the mid-2010s."

"Huang et al. state the obvious, that "anthropogenically induced secular warming has been overestimated by the CMIP5 GCMs during the most recent warming period, and the overestimation is aggravated with time." What is more, given the error bars shown on the figure, in the very near future the observed warming rate will likely soon fall outside the significance levels of the ensemble model mean, removing any remaining credibility left in the model projections of future Arctic warming."

Based on the well documented abundance of failures of even the most sophisticated climate models, it should now be considered criminal malfeasance or malpractice that any politician or bureaucrat utilizes said models for setting policies. While doomsday climate-crisis cultists propagandize using the untenable and unreliable model projections, those that represent the public should be employing more sober analysis and commonsense for policy development and implementation, if any.

A terse synopsis: Climate models can't predict squat.

For One of Life's Little Amazon Frustrations - Order Package Not Delivered

The virtue-signaling corporate juggernaut that is Amazon sometimes acts in a very anti-consumer manner.

For example, trying to request that a missing Amazon order package be re-shipped since it was never delivered, contrary to what Amazon reports, is made rather difficult by the giant online retailer. Especially since they no longer provide a url link on their web site to address the non-delivery issue when Amazon reports the package as being delivered.

Instead, try the below method to get that replacement package sent, per this web page.

What to Do When Your Amazon Order Shows as Delivered but is Actually Missing

UPDATE AS OF NOVEMBER 2019! As of November 2019 here is what you have to do if your order shows as delivered but never arrived: Call Amazon at 888-280-4331 You will be asked to let Amazon verify your account by having Amazon text the number they have associated with your account (while you are on the phone) and once you have verified it, the automated system will guide you through some options, one of which is “about an order”, followed by “are you calling about an item?” Answer ‘yes’ to this, and then the system asks you about the item, and gives you the option to say that it never arrived. At this point the system will offer you a refund or a replacement.

You can also try using the Amazon Customer Service Chatbot if you prefer not to use the phone, although we have not tested it recently.

Another Doomsday Myth Busted: Sea Coral Not Harmed By Warming & Acidification, Per New Study

The doomsday climate change alarmists keep having their science-denying chops busted and it has happened again.

A new study on the climate change impact on sea coral habitat is very inconvenient for the cult of anti-empirical science deniers.

For way too long, these deniers have completely ignored the actual science being conducted to determine if the combination of global warming and seawater 'acidification' from fossil fuel emissions would lead to the harm and devastation of sea coral.

The new study again confirms what the science deniers simply do not want to hear. Red Sea corals are robust enough to adapt to changing climate conditions in their environment.

From the review of the new peer-reviewed study by Bellworthy, J., Menoud, M., Krueger, T., Meibim, A. and Fine, M. 2019.

"In a recent study on the combined effects of so-called ocean acidification and warming on corals, Bellworthy et al. (2019) exposed mature colonies of the [Red Sea] reef-building coral Stylophora pistillata to extreme seawater conditions of pH 0.4 units lower and temperatures 5°C warmer than they are today....."Notably, they add that under the experimental conditions "S. pistillata planulae were resistant in terms of their settlement, physiology and survival, even when parents were exposed to severe ocean acidification and warming during the gamete maturation, fertilization and brooding period"....."And because that resistance was evident to even the most extreme predictions of future ocean acidification and warming (Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5), it would appear a solid bet that these corals will be around for centuries to come."

The Simple & Sad Truth About Computer Climate Models: They Can't Predict Squat

This NASA climate model chart certainly confirms why expert computer climate simulations are held in such contempt and ridiculed; and also why they should not be utilized for policy work performed by politicians and bureaucrats.

The failure of climate models at what they were originally intended to accomplish has forced the major climate research agencies into a constant state of both "upgrading" their wildly expensive climate models and "correcting" past actual temperature measurements.

This particular model was instrumental in starting the egregious and shrill propaganda war against economic growth and prosperity way back in 1988. It's creation has led to the point where today teenage doomsday cult personalities are provided top-level platforms to fear-rant - by those who should know better - to rail against the bountiful wonders of modern civilization.

This NASA model has had a long history being wrong, and when correct at specific periods, it's due more to blind luck of the natural temporary El Niño global warming phenomenon, which is not sustainable over lengthy time spans.

The model chart presents three simulated global temperature scenarios that portray the end result of growing greenhouse gas emissions, with the focus on fossil fuel CO2 emissions. The scenarios developed by NASA include:

Scenario 'A': The business-as-usual (BAU) scenario that represented total emissions growing without any constraints.

Scenario 'B': Representing the reduction of total emissions by moderate amounts.

Scenario 'C': Representing a scenario that had global emissions being maintained in the future at year 2000 levels.

As the observed NASA and HadCRUT global temperature plots on the chart reveal, the observed temperatures are not anywhere close to NASA's BAU scenario 'A'. Yet, as can be seen below, it's continued to be business-as-usual for a very long time, at least since the 1988 introduction of this model to the public.

 

Sources: 2019 BP Energy Statistical Review & NOAA CO2 ppm levels

This December 2019 article lays out the essentials of past greenhouse gas growth and the continuing growth of CO2, which shows no signs of a permanent global curtailment.

In summary, this NASA/GISS model was never an effective tool for climate change prediction, let alone establishing a realistic national or global policymaker climate strategy. And over the decades since 1988, all the later generations of climate models have been no better as they also way over estimate the warming impact of greenhouse emissions.

30+ Years After Claiming That CO2 Was The 'Control Knob' For Planetary Temperatures It's Still M.I.A.

Over the last three decades, advocates of climate change alarmism have claimed that the trace greenhouse gas CO2 is the rapid global warming control knob that humans can use to tweak the world's climate, thus allowing for a deceleration of the supposed "harmful" warming.

But after some 30+ years, the empirical evidence for that claim still remains missing in action (M.I.A.).

The adjacent chart of lower atmosphere temperature trend plots and atmospheric CO2's constant growth completely refutes the concept that warming rates (acceleration/deceleration) can be controlled by a magical bureaucrat's CO2 knob.

As it is blindingly obvious, atmospheric temperatures rates are constantly changing, going from a state of acceleration, to a deceleration state, and then back to acceleration, without any regard to CO2 levels.

Without any regard to CO2 levels?

The pale yellow boxes near the bottom of the chart the relationship between atmospheric CO2 levels and the various plotted per century temperature trends. Those correlations barely climb out of the basement, with two even exhibiting a negative correlation.

The hypothesis that CO2 is currently a strong influencer on the world's warming is essentially factless.

Clearly, whether it's a reduction in human emissions or using technology to remove CO2 from the atmosphere, there will be no changing the natural planetary phenomenon of the constant change in temperature warming and cooling rates.

Simply stated, there is no 'control knob' for humans to utilize to slow or speed up global warming.

Once the public comes to realize the fake CO2 doomsday science being pushed by the establishment does not offer a solution, the sooner we can move to adaption strategies for coping with any negative outcomes from a warmer world (and also take advantage of the massive benefits from global warming).

Note: Excel was used to average the monthly global temperatures from the UAH and RSS satellite datasets; Excel was used to calculate the per century trends in the plots; Excel was used to plot the atmospheric CO2 levels from this dataset; Excel used to chart all data and to calculate the moving per century slope trends.

Climate Emergency Due To Global Warming Doomsday? Not So Fast, Greta

(click to enlarge)

As numerous 'C3' articles on past warming has pointed out, our modern global warming is not so "unprecedented" as the scientifically illiterate alarmist doomers claim - here's looking at you, Greta Thunberg, know-nothing Hollywood celebrities, and mainstream mocking bird "journalists."

As this chart indicates, in the very distant past, temperatures were indeed at times warmer or match what we are currently experiencing.

Per the peer-reviewed study, across a span of 2,500 years researchers were able to reconstruct the bottom waters of a fjord.

The findings:

"Asteman et al. first note that "the reconstructed temperature range (2.7-7.8 °C) is within the present-day annual variability, documented from instrumental temperature measurements in the fjord's deepest basin since 1890." Next, they point out that "the Gulmar Fjord winter bottom water temperature record shows both centennial and multidecadal variability and has a striking resemblance to climate periods historically known in northern Europe over the last 2500 years." Those periods include the Roman Warm Period (RWP), Dark Ages Cold Period (DACP), Medieval Warm Period (MWP), Little Ice Age (LIA) and Current Warm Period (CWP).

According to Asteman et al., temperatures during the RWP (prior to ~ AD 450) were approximately 2.5 °C higher than the 1961-1999 mean, encompassing a temperature range of 5.4-7.9 °C. During the DACP (~ AD 450-850), temperatures were more variable but stayed in the range of 4-8 °C. The MWP, which the authors say occurred around AD 850-1350, coincided with a grand solar maximum with water temperatures ranging between 5.4 and 7.6 °C. Thereafter, temperatures cooled once again during the LIA, with bottom water temperature averaging 2-3 °C lower than the instrumental 1961-1999 temperature mean and hovering between a range of 2.9 to 6.6 °C.Finally, at the end of the record, temperatures warmed up again. However, Asteman et al. report that the contemporary warming of the 20th century "does not stand out in the 2500-year perspective and is of the same magnitude as the Roman Warm Period and the Medieval Climate Anomaly."

Of course, all that past warming was due to normal climatic oscillations and fluctuations within various cycles. This past warming had nothing to do with CO2 and other emitted greenhouse gases.

And just as occurred in the past, it is highly likely that a major portion of the warming since the Little Ice Age is also natural.

Debunking The CO2 Climate Doomsday Scenario With Empirical Evidence

(click to enlarge)

Empirical evidence is the bane of all climate change 'doomers' since it contradicts what they've been told as being true.

In a nutshell, the doomer contention is that a civilization doomsday will happen within the next 12 years because of climate change.

The principal foundation of their alarmist catastrophic scenarios is the never tested, never proven hypothesis that human CO2 emissions will cause incredible, tipping point global warming, thus leaving planet Earth uninhabitable.

However, fortunately for the world and its inhabitants, there is absolutely zero empirical evidence supporting the claimed soon-to-be "doomsday" from growing CO2 emissions.

The adjacent chart plots 3 evidence lines of significant importance. 

The black line with white dots is a plot of total CO2 emissions for the prior 12 years. The very first white dot represents total 12-year emissions ending in 1958. The next white dot represents the cumulative emissions for the 12 years ending 1959, and so on. The last dot represents total emissions for the 12 years ending 2018.

The gray dotted line with the black squares is the plot of atmospheric CO2 changes over 12 months. For example, the first black square on the left represents the total change in atmospheric CO2 levels from November 30, 1958 through November 1959. Each progressive black square represents the 12-month change for the given period ending in November until the last square is reached for the 12-month period ending November 2019.

And the pale orange line with red circles is the plot of HadCrut global temperature changes over the preceding 12 months, all periods (red circles) ending in November.

From a visual interpretation of the chart, there appears to be a cause and effect relationship between past human CO2 emissions and the subsequent change in levels of atmospheric CO2. The r² for said relationship is +0.49, which suggests there is statistical evidence that at least a portion of the higher atmospheric CO2 levels is due to the many years of human fossil fuel emissions.

In contrast, it is visually obvious that there is no cause and effect relationship between past cumulative CO2 emissions and subsequent global temperature changes. In fact, the r² of +0.002 indicates that past CO2 changes have essentially zero influence on global temperature changes.

(click to enlarge)

This second chart shows the trend lines of the plotted datasets from the prior chart.

The trend line for temperature change is essentially flat, while the trend lines for both CO2 emission tonnes and atmospheric CO2 levels are significantly upward sloping.

Conclusion: It would be reasonable to assume from the available evidence that as human CO2 emissions increase, the atmospheric CO2 levels will likely follow suit.

But the empirical evidence for the claim that growing CO2 emissions will cause huge warming changes is non-existent, even after decades of gigantic output of human CO2 emissions.

The doomers' fear that increasing human CO2 emissions will result in rapid changes in global warming and thus a climate doomsday is not only unlikely, it is scientifically illiterate without any empirical merit.

Additional global temperature charts.

Note: Each of the 3 dataset plots contain 61 datapoints since the first full year (1959) of CO2 data collection from the Mauna Loa, Hawaii measurement station. Excel was used to calculate all 12-month changes and to calculation moving 12-year total of CO2 emissions; Excel also used for charts of datapoints and their respective linear trends and r². Source of HadCrut 4.6 global temperature anomalies; source of CO2 atmospheric CO2 levels (ppm); source of CO2 emissions in metric tonnes. And the relationship between the 12-month temperature changes and the the 12-month changes in atmospheric CO2 levels (ppm) has a r² of +0.01 - might as well be zero. Those stubborn facts can be so hurtful...for doomers and alarmists.

Doomsday: Climate Change Disruption & Emergency Predictions - Unmitigated Total Failures Documented

Over the last 11 years, 'C3' has written multiple posts regarding the never-ending stream of failed climate predictions.

And we are especially fond of sharing with readers the debunking of doomsday-type predictions that fail miserably due to their being non-reality based.

Four of the more recent videos debunking "doomsday" and "existential threat" predictions can be seen below.

The people embracing the doomsday nonsense are often those gullible enough to elevate their 'green' feelings to a religion status that requires exhibiting their devotion in a pagan-like manner, as the video below on the left indicates.

The most vulnerable to the false prophets of green disaster cultism are the many young persons who do not yet possess the critical thinking faculties to see through the doomsday sham. But one father offers a likely very effective technique to deprogram a teenage child involved in this mentally abusive cult (see the video below on the right).

CO2's Continental Impact On Extreme Temperatures Over Last Decade

(click on image to enlarge)

Amazingly, the impact has been zilch on each continent's and hemisphere's hottest and coldest temperature extremes.

Based on the doomsday hysteria, one would expect every continent to be reaching an unprecedented, new extreme hot temperature record every single year.

But alas, per the empirical records through the end of 2019, there has been no individual continental 'hottest' temperature record surpassed since 1982 - maybe matched since then, but not surpassed.

Way back in 1982, the continent of Antarctica set a new hottest record temperature of +67.2°F.

And the world's 1913 single hottest temperature ever of 134.0°F has yet to be broken or even matched.

As far as the 'coldest' temperature record, the last time a new record was set took place during 1983, again on the continent of Antarctica. That 1983 coldest low reached a -128.6°F.

So, after another decade of hysterical screaming by doomsday alarmists about "unprecedented" warming, the experts confirm - using empirical evidence - that the world is not "burning up" due to the hundreds of billions of tonnes of 'evil' fossil fuel CO2 emissions released into the atmosphere. Nor has all that CO2 caused even lower extremes of cold temperatures.

It's another case of those stubborn facts debunking the very fake narrative of a climate change doomsday existential threat.

Note: Global temperature extremes by geological continent can be located here and here. (The WMO lists both Israel and Greenland as part of Europe, which is purely a political decision, not based on the actual geology of continents. Geologically, Greenland is part of the North American continent and Israel sits on the western portion of the Asian continent.)

'Greens' Fake Climate-Porn Disasters: Last Refuge For Lying Democrats & The Government Bureaucrats?

Recent days have again provided ample evidence of government officials and politicians lying to the public, whether it be the released 'Afghan Papers'; the deranged Democrats' fact-less, no-crime Trump impeachment fraud; or another failed climate-porn UN Climate Conference that just concluded in Madrid. 

The incessant lying by the establishment elites and their bureaucrat cronies has not been without massive blowback by the voting public, though.

Last week's absolute massive and stunning UK conservative landslide electoral vote over the elitist left and socialists was a direct refutation of the policies of the wealthy and powerful overlords that the masses are objecting to.

But no matter the how many times the establishment elites hugely lose in elections across the world, today's Democrats seem unable to learn one of the lessons why the public keeps spanking them: STOP LYING!

This video simply demonstrates that Democrats running for 2020 election are still going to lie to the public by using climate-porn fearmongering. They are peddling fake future disasters in order to fool the public.

Democrats continue to use this tactic to not only enrich their wealthy white privileged donors who invest in green energy scams; but to justify progressives' demand for greater taxes for spending programs; to make energy more costly for the lower and middle class; and to enable greater government bureaucrat control over the populace with more regulations. 

All the terrible policies that voters do not want - and Democrats won't talk about - are masked by this anti-scientific climate doomsday propaganda that they glibly spread.

'Greta & The Doomers': 2019 UN's Climate "Emergency" Conclave Reminded About Hurricane Reality

'Greta and her UN climate change alarmist friends are currently attending the UN's Madrid Climate conference, which seems to be experiencing some unplanned difficulties.

As in past years, this conclave's purpose is to frighten mainstream journalists with stories of pending doom caused by fossil fuel CO2 emissions. Of course, they always state that doom is 'just around the corner.' 

After decades of these disaster prognostications never coming true, one would think journalists would finally learn that they are being played.

Not yet it would appear (one is always reminded of the maxim that journalists are not the sharpest blades in the drawer).

Recently we had another example of the failed doomerism religion, and it comes with the end of the 2019 hurricane season, which the UN, Greta, and journalists do not want the public to be aware of.

As this article lays out, the doomer-cult scary predictions of increased frequency and increased intensity of hurricanes simply has not happened. And the adjacent charts reveal the indisputable empirical evidence, much to the angst of Greta and friends.

The Fake News About Rapid Global Warming In The U.S.

The world's gold-standard USCRN climate station measurement system has now recorded 3 straight years of declining temperatures, based on 12-month averages ending in November.

And the 12-month period ending November 2019 is actually below (-0.06°F) the very first 12-month period ending November 2006 (+1.03°F).

Conclusion: "Global" warming appears to be on hiatus in the U.S., again.

It's not just the FBI that exhibited extraordinary difficulties with the truth, but maybe more importantly for the American public, an entire class of mainstream press journalists, reporters, pundits and other "experts" either gladly lied to protect the anti-Trump narrative, and/or were badly duped due to their amazing combination of stupidity, laziness, and gullibility.

12/01/19 - 12/07/19: The Past Week In News You Would like To Forget

Every week CNN and MSNBC vie for being the most lunatic "journalism" outlet that way too many people watch.

Based on how these two cable outlets report their latest conspiracies the news, it is no wonder that left/liberal/progressive Democrats are so wildly ignorant or misinformed.

If the government were ever to shut down either one of these garbage dumps of misinformation, it would have a very positive impact on the American public - a whole a lot better than the internet shutdown of Alex Jones' InfoWars.

Let's be frank, the scary levels of their viewership's intolerance, rage, incivility, hate, and violence that CNN and MSNBC purposefully produce in their respective audiences is a societal cancer that has metastasized over the first three years of the Trump administration. 

Then again, maybe their respective audiences are already suffering from intolerance, rage, incivility, hate, and violence - who's to say for sure.

Although the 1st amendment protects the freaking awfulness of the CNN/MSNBC duo, the free market of viewers is having their own say - thank goodness. (images source)

It's Not Just NASA & NOAA Climate Science: FBI Misleads The Public & Courts By Omitting Key Evidence and/or Embellishing Fake Information

Government funded science (and climate change science) is awash in falsehoods that are constantly being propagandized to the detriment of the public. There is even a weekly publication that exposes the latest fake science that has mislead and misinformed.

Unfortunately, this growing fakery is being found across just about every governmental institution. The result has severely damaged the credibility and trustworthiness of all, whether implicated or not.

The latest example is the expose of the cornucopia of FBI's actions/errors that mislead the all-important FISA court, as documented by the DOJ IG Horowitz.

Below, WSJ journalist Kimberley Strassel lays out the damning information in an epic Twitter thread regarding the FBI's 'Russia, Russia, Russia' investigative corruption.

The source for all these tweets can be found here.

At this point in time, why anyone would trust any of the mainstream establishment institutions beggars belief.

As skeptics have exposed in the climate science arena, institutional claims cannot be trusted, which necessitates their being checked at least in a triple fashion, if not more.

And as anti-Trump debacle is proving, our skepticism should extend to all claiming authority and/or moral superiority. Lesson learned: they're all incessant, remorseless liars.

Note: The DOJ was unable to establish the FBI motive for significantly misleading the FISA court, yet. There was no smoking gun email, text message or voice recording that the IG discovered in the course of his investigation. On the overhand, the DOJ's Durham investigation of potential criminal activities will likely be better positioned to find such motivation since Durham has both subpoena and grand jury powers that the IG lacked.

Doomers Debunked: Evidence Grows That Global Warming Is Not So "Global"

Climate doomers claim that the entire globe is being roasted by the ever increasing blanket of human CO2 emissions in the atmosphere.

Yet there are large regions and areas of the world that somehow have escaped this warming oven deathtrap, and are even doing the contrary, cooling.

This is happening despite the CAGW hypothesis determinations that the mainstream press, Hollywood celebrities and left-of-center politicians fully hype without any regard to climate reality and empirical evidence.

In fact, the latest empirical evidence indicates that multiple nations in the northern hemisphere - the supposed regional canary in the CAGW mine - have not warmed over the last 20+ years. 

The adjacent chart reveals that only 2 of 6 climate stations in Finland have experienced warming during the month of October since 1994. If CO2 induced global warming is indeed as powerful and all encompassing as doomers claim, then the near-Arctic climate reality of Finland is impossible.

And unfortunately for the climate change alarmists, Finland is no exception. This article plots a total of 3 other higher latitude nations in the northern hemisphere that reveal the same climate reality: more cooling than warming.

Out of total of 30 climate stations stretched across Ireland, Sweden, Norway (and Finland), only one third (33.3%) exhibited a significant global warming trend. The remaining climate station measurement records show either a stable or cooling trend.

Think about it: If 66% of the climate stations have no impactful warming over the last 2 decades, why would alarmists state categorically the opposite?

And adding to the climate reality misery of doomers being factually wrong, there is the continuing growth of northern hemisphere snowfall extent that debunks the alarmist predictions that snow would disappear (remember the doomer scientist claim that "snowfalls are a thing of the past"?).

This Rutgers University fall season snow extent chart for the northern hemisphere states the obvious: climate doomers are liars, seemingly intent on creating false public fears.

Additional regional and modern temperature charts.

2019: Was It An Unprecedented Doomsday Summer In Europe?

No, it was not. And another alarmist doomsday claim bites the dust.

As with everything in climate change, nothing is unprecedented. The warm and dry Europe summers over the last two years are no exception.

Per this article, scientists examined evidence using dendroclimatology techniques and concluded that the Medieval Warming Period produced similar high temperatures and droughts in northern Germany some 1,000 years ago. And the result was most definitely not a climate doomsday event

As it happens, the High Middle Ages took place 1,000 years ago during this time of a milder and warmer climate. The better climate was key to producing a more robust civilization with impressive population gains, coupled with greater agriculture opportunity and capabilities that helped stimulate economic markets and trade. 

Of course, nothing lasts forever in nature, and as the climate made its move into the cooling period known as the Little Ice Age, the great societal gains of the Climate Optimum either stagnated or were vastly decreased across a wide swath of Europe.

These same scientists also investigated the doomsday claim that Germany's wonderful forests would be devastated by today's warming and drier conditions.

Their findings contradicted the alarmist claims.

"The authors prove once again that our forests are growing much faster today than in the past, because agriculture (also traffic & industry) provides them with a lot of fixed nitrogen (ammonium salts). The modestly increased CO2 content of today’s air also allows the trees to open the stomata of the leaves for a shorter period of time, thus limiting water losses. In other words, our industrial civilization is considerably HELPING the forest by supplying it with building materials and even water indirectly."

This Is Your Brain On CO2: Study Reveals Impact of Higher CO2 Levels On Mental Function Is Nada

Does a high level of CO₂ harm or decrease your mental performance? Nope.

A 2019 study by researchers conclude that the brain's critical levels of cognition and decision making are not impaired when the human body is subjected to much higher levels of CO2 than found in Earth's atmosphere.

  "It is well-established that rising levels of atmospheric CO2 pose no direct threat to human health...the ten U.S. researchers tested the mental acuity of 22 "astronaut-like" male and female subjects to four different CO2 concentrations (600, 1200, 2500 and 5000 ppm), subjecting them to standardized decision making and cognition tests...According to the authors, "there were no clear dose-response patterns for performance on either [the] Strategic Management Simulation or Cognition" evaluations...Consequently, when considering the full range of CO2 values examined, they conclude that "performance across tests did not differ between baseline (600 ppm) and the higher concentrations.""

Paging Pierre Delecto: Climate Change Doomsday For Pacific Islands Called Off

Timing is everything in the political world, and especially when you are already a failed U.S. Senator with an approval rating of 18%. What does one do in such circumstances?

Of course, if one finds himself in such an unenviable position, one forms a stop climate change doomsday 'Mod Squad' in the U.S. Senate that is fashioned to curry the favor of 'The Squad' socialist crazies -i.e. AOC and others.

Surprise! That's just what the infamous GOP's Mitt 'Pierre Delecto' Romney has done.

Unfortunately for Romney, real scientists keep releasing more scientific research and empirical evidence that refutes the climate change doomsday scenarios that Pierre and his 'tax & spend' senatorial comrades believe in.

Case in point is the recent debunking of the alarmist propaganda disaster scenario where Pacific islands will be submerged by rising sea.

Here is a review of multiple peer-reviewed island studies that provide the doomsday shredding analyses. 

This is not a one-off. The scientific literature is filled with studies debunking all the doomsday scenarios; and the new research keeps growing in this realm, much to the chagrin and bad timing of many a political has-been.

p.s. If you're thinking of giving money to the GOP's senate campaign organization, don't. Give to individual candidates but not to an organization that condones the likes of Pierre Delecto.

What Do 11,000 Scientists Have To Say About Fake News?

Well, probably not a lot, since these 11,000+ "scientists" signed onto a fake science editorial. It was essentially a press release letter-to-the-editor type of article that could have been written by any climate doomsday acolyte, such as Al Gore or Greta Thurnberg.

The MSM presented the press release as a "study" but there was no peer-reviewed science or empirical evidence presented in the journal.

And the signatories of this letter simply went to a web site and seemingly just had to click a button to register their approval of the letter. No vetting of the signatories whatsoever.

Rebel News TV has a great video describing the non-scientific article and the Canadian mainstream media reaction to it. During the analysis, the Rebel TV commentator starts a 13-minute review of some of the 400 Canadian scientists who put their signature on the dotted line for all to see.

Do ya think these Canadian "scientists" possess a portfolio of sophisticated research and expertise in climate science? Watch and see for yourself.

Kinda cool that an occupational-therapist can "sign" a press release and immediately become a scientist.

Fake news and science in one jumbo package that the mainstream press heartily swallowed and gleefully regurgitated.

Full video on YouTube.

The Result: Provoking The Twitter Bear Over Censorship

After 10 years of being on Twitter, I finally submitted a tweet that Twitter refused to publish.

Is Twitter censorship even being applied to an account that has a minuscule following?

Earlier, I had read articles about the Facebook and Twitter censorship in regards to the fake Ukranian "whistleblower" Eric Ciaramella. 

Being the proverbial skeptic, decided to test the claim on Twitter censorship by submitting a rather mundane tweet that included the adjacent image via a Bit.ly link. 

Attempted to submit the tweet multiple times with no luck. Apparently, Twitter would not allow the posting that included a screen capture having the text 'Eric Ciaramella' in the image.

Then Twitter would not accept any tweet I tried submitting.

I then opened up a different browser and was able to sign into Twitter. But I was still unable to post a new tweet.

At least Twitter censorship seems to be a real thing when it comes to protecting the Democrats' narrative.

For those bloggers seeking a censorship-free alternative to Twitter, sign up for Gab.com account. For any blog post that you submit to your Twitter account, you can do the same by using Gab's Dissenter extension or use Gab's new privacy browser.

The Facts: Government Subsidies = Higher Prices For 'Green' Renewable Energy

Today's lesson: When government is involved, consumers always pay more for less.

Why would this be a surprise to consumers regarding energy? There are multiple examples in the past where government intervention and subsidies have made costs soar - think health care and higher education for example.

"In 2013, a German economist predicted that the economic value of solar would drop by a whopping 50% when it became just 15% of electricity and that the value of wind would decline 40% once it rose to 30% of electricity.

Six years later, the evidence that solar and wind are increasing electricity prices in the real world, often without reducing emissions, is piling up.

In 2017, The Los Angeles Times reported that California’s electricity prices had risen sharply, and hinted it might have to do with the deployment of renewables.

In 2018, I reported that renewables had contributed to electricity prices rising 50% in Germany and five times more in California than in the rest of the US despite generating just 17% of the state’s electricity.

And in April, a research institute at the University of Chicago led by a former Obama administration economist found solar and wind were making electricity significantly more expensive across the United States.

The cost to consumers of renewables has been staggeringly high."

10/6/19 - 10/12/19: The Past Week In News You Would like To Forget

Well, no surprises this past week, other than the good news from Democrat Rep. Ocasio-Cortez announcing that she will not be birthing any bloodline lame brains.

As one has come to expect, this past week the Democrats and their press public relation advocates continued to attack Americans, America, Republicans, conservatives, libertarians, and every institution that doesn't agree with them.

And the kangaroo, illegitimate, informal House impeachment inquiry has become so embarrassing that the Dems have now decided to hold secret meetings that are closed to the public and press.

The sham will continue until all good Americans simply boycott every TV network and cable news channel, which would starve the Democrat perps of their audience.

Alas, one should not hold their breath waiting for that to happen. (image source)

The Never Ending Renewable Green Energy Fiasco Continues

How do you identify a really stupid person? 

Simple. If they advocate for or support "green" renewable energy over natural gas or nuclear power generation, you then know stuck-on-stupid is what you are dealing with.

Recent articles continue to document the renewable green energy fiasco that politicians and bureaucrats have implemented, much to the detriment of ordinary people.

Due to solar and wind inherent inefficiencies and lack of being reliable 24/7/365 sources of power, they are very expensive despite the claims of 'free.'

For example, this recent article about Germany, whose leaders decided that a major percentage of energy should be sourced from "affordable" green energy. Instead, they now have some of the highest electricity prices in the world, all due to stupid politicians believing the ludicrous claims regarding "cheap" solar and wind.

As this chart reveals, countries with the highest commitment to solar and wind have the highest electricity prices - definitely not good for residential living or commercial/industrial activities. 

And much to the chagrin of the establishment elites, polls keep revealing that consumers are not willing to pay the higher costs associated with renewable energy solutions to battle "climate change." Even the gung-ho Brits are unwilling to pay the costs.

Now combine the pain of higher electricity costs that customers are feeling in their wallets with the massive tax subsidies necessary to keep the renewable energy prices from absolutely sky rocketing, and it becomes crystal clear that "green" energy initiatives are not economically sustainable.

And when the government subsidies are withdrawn, the solar/wind investments collapse. 

Then there is the increasingly significant issue of green energy unreliability that consumers are now experiencing.

Finally, does an aggressive national commitment to wind/solar and other renewables come close to producing the wonderful claims from green energy advocates?

In a word, NOPE.

Back to the beginning of this article: Stupid is as stupid does, which in the case of green energy proponents is fairly obvious.

9/29/19 - 10/5/19: The Past Week In News You Would like To Forget

It's the same old, same old this week in the headlines.

Yes, the press, the Democrats, the Hollywood celebrities, the progressives, and the liberals continue their journey towards full mental and emotional self-destruction. 

Their craziness, combined with their devoted dedication to hatred and intolerance of those who disagree with them, is unprecedented and likely doing immense damage to the remaining fabric of political unity in this country.

As we say, read, weep, and laugh about this week's crazies. (image source)

Another Study Demolishes The Simpleton Belief That CO2 Influences The Climate

Let's be brutally honest: the gullible and very stupid have been brainwashed to believe the propaganda that human CO2 emissions have a significant climate change impact resulting in severe weather events.

As this chart from a peer-reviewed research journal indicates, since ancient times, the climate has been in a constant state of change causing extremely low and high weather events, regardless of the atmospheric CO2 levels.

This group of researchers analyzed an almost 5 century record of streamflow volumes in the Southern Tibetan Plateau. Streamflow volume is driven by precipitation and weather extremes in either direction would be identified with this type of analysis.

Their findings?

"As seen there, perhaps the most striking feature of the record is the short eight year decline in streamflow from the highest value (487.1 m3 s-1) in 1871 to the lowest value (205.4 m3 s-1) of the nearly five-century-long record, which sharp transition was a completely natural occurrence and could not have been due to CO2 (because the vast bulk of the modern CO2 rise has occurred over the past six decades). Aside from the above-mentioned event, the record displays considerable variability at multiple time scales, yet there is no obvious trend or indication that there is anything unusual, unnatural or unprecedented in recent years of the streamflow record that would indicate rising atmospheric CO2 is having an effect....Further analyses indicate these periodicities are likely natural in origin; they correspond well with and are likely significantly driven by ENSO, the Asian summer monsoon, and other large-scale climate circulation features."

Additional examples of research indicating little, if any, climate change attributes related to CO2 levels.

More Proof That Predicted Catastrophic Modern "Global Warming" Does Not Exist

With all due respect to the profession of mainstream journalism, there is no such thing as rapid, catastrophic "global warming."

In fact, there are vast land and sea areas that are not warming, which seriously counters publicized statements that the world is suffering from a "global" climate condition. And claims of rapid, catastrophic "global" warming are simply fictional derivatives of imagination.

For example, the Southern Hemisphere's and tropical-latitude oceans currently have sea temperature anomaly measurements that are essentially the same as those found during the during the period of 1997-1999, some 20+ years ago. 

And a critical example of a large land mass without significant warming is the contiguous land mass of the lower 48 U.S. states.

The above chart (click on to enlarge) is a plot of average U.S temperature anomalies and one does not need to be a climate scientist to discern from the plot that the fear-mongering about rapid, dangerous, and catastrophic warming is empirical nonsense.

Putting some flesh on the empirical science bones, the chart is plotted from the datasets produced by the world's only state-of-the-art climate/weather USCRN measurement system with 140 station sites all across the contiguous U.S.

Notice that since the USCRN sites went online in January 2005, over the last 14+ years the average U.S. temperature has had periods of both cooling and warming.

And when comparing the latest August 2019 12-month average (green circle) and the 8-month average (yellow star) with their respective beginning averages in 2005, it's clear that the current averages are lower.

Also, as the chart's 6th degree fitted trend line (black) indicates, the most recent warming has turned towards a cooling direction.

Based on these facts, it can be fairly surmised that the climate doomsday cult prediction of a global warming inferno is without empirical evidence, and it can justly be called anti-scientific as well. With a little greater specificity, the claim that human CO2 emissions has produced a global "tipping point" with runaway warming is demonstrably false.

For the record, including 2005, there has been 441 gigatonnes of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere through 2018, which represents an overall increase of 25%.

But where's the predicted rapid and dangerous "global" warming from all these emissions? Not in the U.S. Not in the immense waters of the Southern Hemisphere. And amazingly, not in a lot of other places: Ireland, China, Greenland, England, Finland, North Atlantic, Sweden, France, Central Europe, Japan, and other various countries. 

In summary, apparently for politicians, celebrities, "journalists" and teenagers, science and empirical evidence are no longer to be taken seriously. Thus fossil fuels and their resulting emissions have become convenient scapegoats, nothing more. And wildly speculative climate change predictions are, unfortunately, tipping point catnip for the hysterical and feeble-minded.

Note: As occurs everywhere, in the U.S. during that 2005-2019 time span there were quite a few hot months; but the same can be said about cold months. When all is said and done, the hot period spans are canceled out by the cooler spans, which is what the 'average' natural climate cycle does. There has been regional warming and regional cooling as the the various regional climates continue to change; and climate expert predictions have failed to account for the non-consistent attributes of climate change.
