OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
When are these asshats going to move back into mud huts? That would cut down on emissions. These fascists jet around in business class on our dime. Then tell the proles to take the bus. Totalitarian history repeating itself here.
Corrected headline.
IPCC is controlled by idiots.
“...the United Nations reports today.”
Don’t need to read any further.
Just sayin’
This is so cute. Ipcc thinks they are still relevant. Talk about a boy who cried wolf. :-D

Double FK the IPCC AND the entire UN!
Hey, IPPC, tell it to China.
Clean air allows more sunlight to get through, leading to global warming. If you want to cool the earth, we need more cloud cover or more pollution.
Innovation comes from science not legislation. If cleaner energy is the goal why do our super brilliant master’s simply not invent something rather than spend decades trying to destroy advanced nations?
Great idea, except the current state of “green technologies” makes the idea of any significant shift to these systems not just impractical and economically disastrous, they are physically impossible. I’m an engineer by temperament, training, and long experience. That means I have a pragmatic streak and a bent for numbers. The numbers just don’t work out. Green energy is a great idea, I’m 100% behind it - when it is ready. It is not ready yet.
Part of being a science communicator is hoping a natural disaster kills as many members of the audience as possible, as soon as possible, with as much media exposure as possible. As a communicator myself, I’d like nothing better than for thousands of middle-class white people to die in an extreme weather event—preferably one with global warming’s fingerprints on it—live on cable news. Tomorrow.
This person is seriously insane.
OMG! paychecks are at stake!!!!!
Think about all the useless eater EPA drones who will be out of a job without this incessant global warming propaganda. This drum beat designed to brainwash people. Millions of other Govt workers could lose their paychecks, Dittos for alleged climate scientists in universities sucking on the Federal Guvmint teat
There actually is only type of energy that would meet their goals. It would also likely garner support from a broad spectrum of society because it would actually lower energy costs for everybody.
It’s only problem is that the previous iterations of the power plants using this technology were a flawed design given a de facto monopoly by the US government. Compounded by high profile failures of the flawed design prompting widespread public fear. All completely predictable, but a few bribes from lobbyists for GE and Westinghouse papered that over and to this day, we have no coherent energy policy as a result.
The technology is nuclear, of course. Clean, zero carbon, affordable and safe. Using thorium molten salt reactors, they can be fail proof and even convert previously ‘unusable’ nuclear waste into fuel.
You will know the IPCC and their ilk are serious about carbon when they go all in for nuclear. Until then, it is safe to assume that all they want to do is tax industrialized nations so they can skim their personal fortunes off the top.
Laz recommends ‘massive shift’ of money from the IPCC to avoid serial lying.
