Proof That Climate Action Works

Flagstaff joins 9,000 other cities to join global climate change coalition | News | azdailysun.com

Two weeks ago, Flagstaff, Arizona joined the fight against global warming. They were immediately rewarded with the largest one day snowfall on record, and rescued Minneapolis from global warming at the same time.

Interesting Prescott Snow History

Toto went hiking in Prescott, Arizona with an old friend last November.

This is what her place looked like yesterday, after 28 inches of snow.

That was nowhere near the record of 60 inches set in 1967.

20 Dec 1967, Page 1 – Arizona Republic at Newspapers.com

Toto’s friend tells me that her next door neighbor was there for the 1967 storm, and that it was a man-made disaster. The city had sold their snow plows earlier in the year, because they never used them. Apparently, lack of snow is a thing of the past in Arizona.

Hiding The Decline In Extreme Weather

Thirty years ago, the UN said we only had until the year 2000 to save ourselves from global warming.

Mercury News: Search Results

But after decades of fear mongering about global warming, five years ago the global warming pause forced climate alarmists in a new direction.

Global warming pause ‘central’ to IPCC climate report – BBC News

Alarmists quit talking about warming, and started talking about “climate change” “climate disruption” and “extreme weather.” Now every weather disaster is shown over and over again on television, and emotionally linked to rising greenhouse gas concentrations – just as Pavlov conditioned dogs to drool when they heard a bell ring.

The brainwashing has been very successful. The Washington Post says the world will end in the year 2o31, unless we give up our cars, fuel supply, freedom, money, democracy and meat. Note that this is a 31 year reprieve from the UN’s 1989 forecast.

Ocasio-Cortez says the world will end in 12 years. She is absolutely right. – The Washington Post

And the New York Times says it is time to panic.

NYT Opinion on Twitter: “Panic might seem counterproductive,

This sort of insanity used to be the banter of isolated cults, but has gone fully mainstream among progressive circles.

Without any perspective of history, many young people have no way to filter climate propaganda. How would Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez know any better?  She is a child who has heard nothing but propaganda for her entire short life.

The only way to know if climate is getting more extreme is to compare current weather with past weather. Claims are being made that heatwaves are increasing, along with fires, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, sea level rise, earthquakes and just about every other imaginable complaint of the human condition.

This is nothing new – every generation imagines they live in the most extreme climate ever, and have experts and statistics to prove it.

IMAGINARY CHANGES OF CLIMATE.

(Pall Mall Gazette.)

a plentiful crop of speculation from weather prophets and projectors, and half-instructed meteorologists, and all the philosophic tribe of Laputa in general, to whom the periodical press now affords such fatal facilities.

every season is sure to be “extraordinary,” almost every month one of the driest or wettest, or windiest, coldest or hottest, ever known. Much observation, which ought to correct a tendency to exaggerate, seems in some minds to have rather a tendency to increase it.

– Brisbane Courier, January 10 1871

So are hurricanes actually becoming worse? Of the ten deadliest Pacific cyclones, nine occurred with CO2 below 350 PPM. Two of the ten deadliest occurred in 1881. The third deadliest occurred in 1780, and killed 100,000 people.

Template:Deadliest typhoons – Wikipedia

The deadliest Atlantic hurricane also occurred in 1780. Of the ten deadliest Atlantic hurricanes, nine occurred with CO2 below 350 PPM, and three occurred during the Revolutionary War.

List of Atlantic hurricane records – Wikipedia

The deadliest cyclone of all occurred in 1970, and killed half a million people.

1970 Bhola cyclone – Wikipedia

Imagery like this from Florida is shown over and over again on television, and linked to rising carbon dioxide concentrations.

But how many young people know about the 1900 Galveston hurricane, which killed 10,000 people and destroyed the city?

Or the 1926 hurricane, which destroyed Miami?

Or the 1815 New England Hurricane?

It is safe bet that school children aren’t being taught about this, but are instead being exposed to  Nobel laureate Al Gore’s sci-fi flick. Ten years ago, Gore released a book with the satellite imagery below, showing lots of hurricanes including one off the east coast of the United States which was circulating the wrong direction (clockwise) for the Northern Hemisphere. This sort of  junk science and fakery is what school children have been taught as science.

Not finding any, Gore airbrushes in hurricanes for his new book | Watts Up With That?

The United States has the best long term hurricane records of any place on Earth, and shows a long term decline in hurricane strikes – down 25% since the 19th century.  The peak year was 1886, when the US was hit by seven hurricanes.  Four of them hit Texas, and three hit Florida that year.

Major hurricanes peaked in the US during the 1940s, and recent years have been the quietest on record.

Three years ago, the Washington Post was terrified by the record lack of hurricanes.

There is no evidence hurricanes are getting worse, but what about tornadoes? Last year was the first year with no EF4 or EF5 hurricanes in the US.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on Twitter: 2018 will be the first year with no violent tornadoes

Compare this with 1925, when a single tornado leveled dozens of cities and killed a huge number of people in at least three states.

US tornado deaths peaked during the 1920s, and have been declining ever since.

Over the last 70 years, the number of F3-F5 tornadoes has declined.

There is no indication tornadoes are getting worse, but what about heatwaves?  The United States is the only large area in the world with enough long term daily data to determine heat wave trends. Most of the world has little or no data.

Index of /pub/data/ghcn/daily/figures/

Every indication is that the US climate is becoming less extreme.  Before data tampering by NOAA, maximum temperatures are becoming less extreme.

Minimum temperatures are also becoming less extreme.

The average daily temperature range is becoming less extreme.

The percentage of stations reaching 90F (32C) sometime during the year is becoming smaller.

The percent of hot days is becoming smaller.

The percent of cold nights is becoming smaller.

The first hot day is coming later.

 

The last hot day is coming earlier.

The number of all time record maximum and minimum temperatures being set in the US has been at a record low in recent years.

Spreadsheet

Every indicator shows that US temperatures are becoming less extreme, with less extreme heat and less extreme cold.

What about drought?  Eight years ago during a severe Texas drought, the state’s leading climate experts announced that Texas would be hot and dry for the rest of the century, and they ridiculed Governor Rick Perry for pointing out the obvious – the rains would return.

“we’ll be fine. As my dad says, it’ll rain. It always does.”

– Texas Governor Rick Perry  Summer, 2011

This is how climate alarmists predictably reacted to Governor Perry’s statement.

With No End in Sight for Texas Drought, ABC News Explains: “Every Farmer in the World Will Be Affected by Climate Change” – ThinkProgress

“The weather of the 21st century will be very much like the hot and dry weather of 2011. Giving extra credibility to this forecast is the fact that the weather extremes that we are presently experiencing were predicted in the first edition in 1995.”

– Texas leading climate experts  2011

Texas is vulnerable to warming climate – Houston Chronicle

But Rick Perry was correct, and the academic experts were wrong.  Since 2011, Texas has been having some of their wettest years on record.  The rains did return, and the climate academics once again demonstrated that they are a combination of ambulance chasers and snake oil salesmen. Drought is always followed by wet periods.

Forest fire burn acreage is down 90% since CO2 was below 280 PPM. What about sea level rise rates? The National Climate Assessment claims that sea level rise rates suddenly doubled, when they switched methodology from tide gauges to satellites in 1992.

No serious scientist would make an apples to oranges comparison like that, but these are climate scientists – not real scientists.  I wrote up the incredible fraud behind this junk science here.

Tide gauges show no change in the rate of sea level rise over the past century. If there was an increase in the rate of sea level rise, it would be visible as an upwards curvature in the graphs below.

I could spend weeks writing up the historical evidence indicating a decline in extreme weather, but that would not be the most efficient use of time.  Instead, let’s look at a a few of the worst disasters during a period of time when the weather was really extreme – 1925-1938.

As I mentioned earlier, the deadliest tornado in US history struck in 1925.

19 Mar 1925, Page 1 – Palladium-Item at Newspapers.com

The following year, Miami was destroyed by a hurricane.

The next year, 1927, was described by the Red Cross as “the worst year in their history.”

The worst floods in US history occurred in 1927. The Mississippi River was flooded for more than six months, forcing hundreds of thousands of people to abandon their homes permanently. Vermont’s worst flood on record occurred in November, 1927. The Red Cross listed 111 disasters – including 29 tornadoes, 24 floods, 9 hurricanes and 23 fires.

Seventy percent of Louisville was underwater.

Then came the 1938 New England Hurricane, which missed narrowly missed Manhattan and was the most damaging storm on record in New England.

The weather was far more extreme from 1925 to 1938 than anything Americans have experienced recently, but very few people still have memories of that.  Imagine the hysteria if we had  a period of extreme weather like that now!

There is no indication that the climate is becoming more extreme, but lots of evidence that it is becoming less extreme.  What is becoming more extreme is the misinformation, propaganda and lies from academics, journalists and politicians.  President Eisenhower warned about this in his 1961 farewell speech.

The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present — and is gravely to be regarded.

Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.

– President Eisenhower   January 17, 1961

The Malicious Intent Behind Climate Alarmism

The most important argument against climate alarmism centers around the proposed solutions.

“Solar is only during the day, solar only works best in places where it’s warm.

There’s no battery technology that’s even close to allowing us to take all of our energy from renewables and be able to use battery storage in order to deal not only with the 24-hour cycle but also with long periods of time where it’s cloudy and you don’t have sun or you don’t have wind

Power is about reliability. We need to get something that works reliably.”

– Bill Gates

Financial Times

We live in a society which is completely dependent on fossil fuels and/or nuclear energy. Our heat, water, power, transportation, manufacturing, food production and distribution systems; communication, medical, financial and every other critical system depend on an “always on” supply of energy.

As an example, at the turn of the last century, there was tremendous fear that the Y2K bug would make computers non-functional and collapse society.  An intermittent computer network due to a lack of reliable energy would have the same effect. Medical and financial services would be non-functional.

Most Americans have never gone without essential commodities, and take them for granted.  And many, like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, seem to have no understanding of the catastrophic consequences of running short of energy. People of her generation have never had to do without food, warmth, light or communications. They can’t function if they don’t have a strong phone signal, and have no concept of what a shortage of food, transportation or energy would be like.

The US has been experiencing record cold this winter.  What would the people of Illinois have done without continuously available heat, light and communications during the record cold snap of -38 degrees two weeks ago?  I flew over the Midwest on January 6, 2018 during a similar cold snap. The air was dead calm and wind turbines were useless.  People were completely dependent on fossil fuels and nuclear energy for their survival.

The reason winter is cold, is because of a lack of solar energy.  The sun is low in the sky, days are short, and it is cloudy much of the time.  Yet climate alarmists want people to be dependent on solar energy for their survival.  They imagine that there is some storage technology which can store huge amounts of energy for long periods of time when the sun isn’t shining or the wind isn’t blowing. But as Bill Gates pointed out, that technology doesn’t exist.

I have degrees in science and engineering, and have worked for most of the last 45 years as both. The job of scientists is to come up with ideas. By contrast, the primary job of engineers is to make things that work. If a bridge or a microprocessor, doesn’t work – very bad things will happen. Bad engineering is fatal to humans, companies and civilizations.

We need to have engineers making the technology decisions, not academic scientists and politicians – who have never had to deliver anything which works, and don’t have any understanding or experience with the processes required to make things work. Most academics and politicians have no clue what is going on behind the scenes of a technologically functional society.

An analogy would be climate forecasters vs weather forecasters. If a climate forecaster is wrong, few people remember or care in 30 years.  But if a weather forecaster is wrong, everyone knows and there are immediate consequences.

If the people of New York City (who elected Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez) believe that we don’t need fossil fuels, why don’t they prove it to the world by eliminating fossil fuels usage in their own city?  They can end skepticism of their plan by eliminating gasoline, jet fuel and natural gas sales in their city. They should ban all electricity usage from sources other than solar, wind and nuclear. They should ban sale of all products manufactured or transported using fossil fuels.

Why didn’t Michael Bloomberg do this while he was mayor? The reason is simple – it is impossible. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s New Green Deal is impossible, and people in countries like China and India understand that.  That is why they are building more than 1,000 new coal fired power plants.

The US could disappear off the face of the Earth, and it would have minimal impact on atmospheric CO2 levels.  China produces more than twice as much CO2 as the US, and under the deal they made with President Obama, they will continue to increase their CO2 emissions until the year 2030.

FACT SHEET: U.S.-China Joint Announcement on Climate Change and Clean Energy Cooperation | whitehouse.gov

US emissions have been declining for a decade due to fracking, while Chinese emissions increased rapidly.

Climate Goals Pledged by China and the U.S. – The New York Times

The UN has been making the same claim that we only have twelve years to save the planet from global warming, for the past 30 years.

A senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000.

U.N. Predicts Disaster if Global Warming Not Checked

The claim is nonsense, the proposed solutions are unworkable, the US has minimal control over the level of atmospheric CO2, and the only viable conclusion is that the powerful people behind the scenes of the New Green Deal have extremely malicious intent. They refuse to allow any debate, censor all skepticism, and run academics out who resist climate alarmism.

We need to have a robust discussion about our energy future centered around engineers – not decisions based on hysteria by politicians and academics who don’t know the first thing about climate or energy.  The American people need to be educated, not fed propaganda and have their information sources censored. Our survival depends on an adequate supply of energy, not mindless hysteria and fear over an essential trace gas. Without carbon dioxide, life itself can not exist.

Without a reliable supply of energy, modern civilization can’t exist.

The Five Top Arguments Against Climate Alarmism

Scott Adams asked me to put together the five best arguments against climate alarmism. This involves a huge amount of information, and fortunately Scott gave me more than six minutes to do it.

I have been summarizing the arguments in a series of blog posts over the past couple of weeks.  The details are primarily in the links provided below.

1. Climate alarmism is based mainly around fear of extreme weather. This concept is deeply rooted in human nature, and has its roots in ancient stories of giant floods, famines and plagues – caused (of course) by man’s sins. Climate alarmists are tapping into that primal fear, and pushing the same idea of extreme weather and floods caused  by mankind’s carbon sins.

The reality is that there is no legitimate evidence extreme weather is increasing or sea level rise is accelerating. The fears are baseless.

Details in the link below :

Hiding The Decline In Extreme Weather | The Deplorable Climate Science Blog

2. Climate alarmism is much like the story of the Emperor’s New Clothes. People may not see any evidence of catastrophic climate change or sea level rise, but their opinion is irrelevant because 97% of scientists believe we are doomed due to global warming. Only a small handful of people whom the press and politicians quote over and over again are allowed to state an opinion, and they are claimed to represent 97% of the world’s millions of scientists.

Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because you’re being had.

– Michael Crichton

Obama’s claims are baseless, yet politicians want to prosecute climate heretics.

LetterPresidentAG.pdf

There has never been any survey done of actual scientists which showed anything remotely like Obama’s claims. Obama made his claim in 2013, but a survey of professional members of the American Meteorological Society made that year, showed that only 52% of their members believed global warming is primarily man-made – much less dangerous. (I am not aware of any broad survey of scientists where they were even asked if the one part per ten thousand increase in CO2 over the past century is dangerous.)  No group in the AMS survey came close to 97%, and among professional forecasters – less than half believed global warming is primarily man-made.

http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/pdf/10.1175/BAMS-D-13-00091.1

What little consensus there is, is based around intimidation of academics and censorship, as I detail in this video.

3.  Academics have been making apocalyptic predictions for decades.  All have failed miserably, yet they keep repeating the same misinformation over and over again.  Had their forecasts been correct, we wouldn’t be here now to have this discussion.

Fifty Years Of Failed Apocalyptic Forecasts

4. Climate alarmism is completely dependent on graphs and useless climate models generated by a small handful of people.  The graphs are generated through scientifically corrupt processes of data tampering and hiding data.

A large amount of detail is provided in the blog posts below.

61% Fake Data 
Overwhelming Evidence Of Collusion
Extreme Fraud In The National Climate Assessment
Extreme Wildfire Fraud In The National Climate Assessment
Doubling The Hockey Stick Fraud
Fraud In The National Climate Assessment (Part 1)
Fraud In The National Climate Assessment (Part 2) 

And climate models have shown zero skill, when compared against reliable tropospheric temperatures.

Failed Climate Models | The Deplorable Climate Science Blog

5.  The most important argument against climate alarmism is that the proposed solutions are unworkable, dangerous and useless. They were made without consulting engineers, and have zero chance of success.  A robust discussion about our energy future is needed, but that discussion is censored in favor of propaganda.

The Malicious Intent Behind Climate Alarmism

We need to have a serious discussion about our energy future, but news agencies like the New York Times and the LA Times have an openly stated policy of censoring anyone with a dissenting opinion.  This is dangerous, un-American and threatens our survival.  Climate change is not an imminent threat, but the proposed solutions are.

If there was an actual climate crisis, it would be obvious.  Alarmists wouldn’t have to hide and tamper with data.

So What Would Global Cooling Look Like?

It is snowing in Malibu, Las Vegas and just outside Phoenix – and climate alarmists are predictably blaming the cold on global warming.  That implies global cooling would be characterized by heat.

Fifty Years Of Failed Apocalyptic Forecasts

“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”

– H. L. Mencken

Academics have been forecasting doom for my entire life.  Needless to say, it hasn’t happened, as we are still here.

A few days after we landed on the moon 50 years ago, Stanford professor Paul Ehrlich forecast that we would disappear in a cloud of blue steam within 20 years. Ehrich is John Holdren’s close associate, and Holdren was Obama’s science advisor.
