It's a long, cold winter for climate hysteria
Are you questioning every kilowatt hour you use? Are you buying compact fluorescent mercury light bulbs, thinking you are a good global citizen? Are you wracking your brain to figure out how you can save the planet from yourself? Are you wondering why it’s so cold outside when they told us we are frying the planet with our cars and cow emissions?
Clever corporate moguls and sly politicians have manufactured a premise to make you think you are the problem. Madison Avenue, Wall Street and all levels of government have figured out a way to capitalize on the mass hysteria they created. The Obama campaign, for example, was backed by individuals, corporations and investment banks expecting to rake in billions from carbon offset trading and regulations.
Most of us in the developed world, who have heating and cooling systems in our homes and workplaces, try to keep our environments at a temperature that enhances our productivity. If it’s too cold, people tend to become uncomfortable and wrap up in bundles of clothing that impede their mobility. If it’s too hot, people are drenched in sweat and suffer from lethargy. Keeping these temperatures reliable for our living and work environments requires burning fossil fuels. Fossil fuel burning has created the most productive civilization in the history of the earth.
As yet, solar and wind energies take more energy to create than they produce. They are inefficient and cost much more than the market will bear.
For over a century, people have published dire warnings about global warming or the onset of another ice age. The difference this time around is that powerful and wealthy players have discovered a way to soak the public on their doomsday premise, using our tax dollars to indoctrinate our children in school.
The catastrophe we face is not climate-related, but from redistribution of wealth from our pockets to the pockets of the doomsday industry.
Meanwhile, it looks like we’re headed toward the coldest winter we’ve seen in 100 years.
Baby, it’s cold outside. You might want to do some more research (www.theartofweather.com) and reconsider your alleged sins against the planet. Heating your home, driving your car and using incandescent light bulbs are not among them.
