The increase in the atmospheric trace gas of CO2 has so far failed to deliver the catastrophic consequences predicted by the alarmists like Al Gore. The headlines about "the end of snow" are now an embarrassment after a winter of abundant frozen precipitation. At least a decade ago, the fraudsters relabeled their purported peril "climate change," allowing any unusual weather to be blamed on mankind's use of fossil fuels.
Now another rebranding is being proposed. Michael Walsh noticed, at PJ Media:
The Left, in the form of the think thank RAND, has gone full Luddite:
Since the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, society has organized efforts to limit the magnitude of climate change around the concept of stabilization – that is, accepting some climate change but holding it within acceptable bounds. This report offers an initial exploration of the concept of climate restoration – that is, approaches that seek to return atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases to preindustrial levels within one to two generations. Using a simple integrated assessment model, the analysis examines climate restoration through the lens of risk management under conditions of deep uncertainty, exploring the technology, economic, and policy conditions under which it might be possible to achieve various climate restoration goals and the conditions under which society might be better off with (rather than without) a climate restoration goal. This report also explores near-term actions that might help manage the risks of climate restoration.
"Luddite" is a good term, for it connotes opposition to the Industrial Revolution, which was (and remains in its "Information Age" version) dependent on the combustion of carbon-based fuels for electrical generation and transportation. The longing for some imagined paradise of living in harmony with nature is even more pervasive in modern history.

How about “climate idiocy”?
Maybe if we change the name again, we might get one or two more people to believe us!
And we are for Constitutional Rights Restoration.
I was listening to an old Art Bell show on this subject.
The year: 2005.
Art asked his “global warming” “expert” what the effects would be in the next five to ten years.
The answer:
“Florida would have so many hurricanes it would be uninhabitable—no-one will live there any more”.
“The Eastern seaboard coastal areas will be flooded and most beach-front property will have to be abandoned”.
Hilariously _wrong_.
Since those predictions were made real-estate prices in the areas have sky-rocketed.
Rebranding this “global warming” garbage just makes it a bigger pile of garbage.
It's a mass suicidal psychosis.
STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES...
The genius that invented the product that makes my company very successful was complaining about the weather.
Freepers, This happens EVERY year without fail. We get snow in April every year and all the libtards start with this, *I dont remember such bad weather etc etc.*
So I told the 80 year old genius, *ITS CALLED SPRING*
Stupid is as stupid does.
I hate these people!!

What I didn't understand when I read 1984 was where Big Brother and his henchmen got their support, i.e. who kept them in power. Now I know. Half of America supports Big Brother. America's children--and much of its older population--have been thoroughly indoctrinated. They apparently see 1984 as a blueprint for utopia.
[[The increase in the atmospheric trace gas of CO2]]
Yep- the atmosphere’s Trace Gas CO2 is all the way up to 0.00136%
Filks, there is no thick blanket surrounding the globe trapping heat
[[the more they are losing.]]
Actually they are winning- We’re all paying much much more for practically everything because of draconian Carbon requirements that cripple businesses and force them to raise prices- The major price increase3s started under the obama administration after he passed regulations
It is mostly OBoCare what we are paying for.
We need to invite all activists to become crispy critters.
Oh Im sure thats in the fine print of the climate restoration plan.
When it is an agenda and not natural science, you can change the name of the “issue” to meet that agenda as often as you want.
Will the Climate Restoration” cult finally define what normal climate is considered to be?
What if I like it just the way it is?
