Italian and foreign scientists are racing against time to save the beautiful city of Venice from sinking into the waters it once ruled. It is estimated that at the rate Venice is sinking, two-thirds of the city praised by poets over the centuries will disappear under water by 1990.

Oxford Economics and Bloomberg say greenhouse gas emissions might wreck the economy.
Climate Change Might Hit Economy Harder and Faster Than Thought – Bloomberg
Last year’s Nobel Prize in Economics was given out for the same idea. William Nordhaus said greenhouse gas emissions would lower corn yields.
William D. Nordhaus – Prize Lecture
Now let’s compare these claims vs. reality, by looking at data from Oxford University’s “Our World in Data” web site. CO2 emissions have gone way up since 1950.

And so have crop yields.

Crop Yields – Our World in Data
The relationship between corn yields and CO2 emissions is very close.
GDP has risen as CO2 emissions have increased.
GDP per capita – Our World in Data
Poverty has plummeted as CO2 has risen.
Nobel Laureate William Nordhaus got everything exactly backwards, just like most of the rest of the population – who have been subject to non-stop brainwashing about CO2 and climate for decades.
The (mis)perceptions about poverty trends Misperception in the UK Despite the clear evidence, many people are not aware of the fact that extreme poverty is declining across the world.
While the share of extremely poor people has fallen faster than ever before in history over the last 30 years, the majority of people in the UK thinks that the opposite has happened, and that poverty has increased.
The extent of ignorance in the UK is particularly bad if we take into account that the shown result corresponds to a population with a university degree. See the Gapminder Ignorance Project for more evidence.
Not only in the UK are many wrongly informed about how poverty is changing globally. Across a large number of countries, the majority of people – 52% – believe that the share of people in extreme poverty is rising.

Greta’s relative who started the global warming scam, Svante Arrhenius, said global warming would make Siberia the greatest farming country on earth.
One of the greatest scientists in the world is Arrhenius of Sweden. He is a chemist and physicist, and has studied this matter. He shows that this proportion of carbon dioxide in the air will make the climate warmer, by acting like the glass roof of a greenhouse. With the carbon dioxide increased from two and one-half to three times, the temperature of the whole world will be raised 3 to 9 degrees centigrade—and Greenland will have a good climate for farming. All the good soil of Canada will be in as temperate a climate as that now enjoyed by Missouri. Corn will be grown in the Peace River Valley. Oranges will be an orchard fruit in Arkansas and Virginia. The suburban residents of Chicago may literally sit under their own fig trees and seuppernong grape arbors. Cotton will be a stable crop in Iowa. Bananas will fringe the shores of the Gulf. Siberia will become the greatest farming country in the world.
Socialists have always targeted children as cannon fodder for propaganda and power.
Global warming is making Venice flood.
Venice ‘on its knees’ after second-worst flood ever recorded
Last year, global warming made Venice canals run dry.
Last time Venice flooded like this was during the global cooling scare in 1966

In 2007, Welsh scientists said Mt Snowdon would be snow free by 2020.
Snowdon will be snow-free in 13 years, scientists warn
This is what Mt. Snowdon looks like today.
The warnings come three months after Scottish scientists warned that their country’s ice-capped peaks would become a thing of the past.

The devastating food shortage that has millions of the world’s poor people in its grip is directly related to what climatologists increasingly suspect is a gradual global cooling process that is causing erratic weather changes from one year to the next.
Early frosts from Texas to the Dakotas. typhoons in India. drought in Siberia, expansion of the desert south of the African Sahara are evidence of unfavorable shifts in the earth’s climate that have been occurring since 1945. U.S. weather experts say.
Weather records show that the annual average temperatures over the Northern Hemisphere rose dramatically from about 1890 through 1945. but have been falling ever since. The total change has averaged about one-half degree centigrade, with the greatest cooling in the all-important wheat – growing regions of North America and Europe. The drop has already shortened the growing season in England by two weeks and caused a dangerous southward shift of monsoon winds in rice – growing regions of Southeast Asia.
