I saw one that said there would be peace on Earth virtually overnight...
Depends on where you are.
I’d like to suggest that all these fear mongers just go to hell. It has the heat they’ve been wanting and waiting for, for a long time.
The planet has been in an ice age for the past two million years with periodic inter-glacials. They think man has the power to stop the Earth from going back into the deep freeze once the inter-glacial is over? They’re insane!
So, climate change is good then. No wonder Barry and the gang want to get rid of it.
Good is bad, and bad is good it seems these days.
The mechanics of the climate are far too complex to predict the effects of a gas that is essential to all life on earth that makes up only about 400 parts per million. There is however one influence on the climate that has a cyclic output that can be measured and which has a known influence on the climate. It is that approximately 900,000 mile diameter fire ball 93,000,000 miles away that provides the majority of heating on the surface and atmosphere of our planet.
Strangely, the number of sunspots observed during various stages of the approximately 11 year solar cycle appears to have some predictive value as to coming solar output. The “Maunder Minimum” which occurred between approximately 1645 and 1715 was a time when there were very few sunspots. This appears to have a relationship to the “little ice age” a time of much colder temperatures than today which lasted until approximately 150 years ago.
Unfortunately, sunspot activity has been waning and there are many scientists who expect the climate to cool dramatically within the next 30 years.
The population drop was due to the Mt. Toba super volcanic eruption in 74000 BC. The predicted Yellowstone event might due similar population damage.
In the 1970s book “Lucifer’s Hammer”, the astronauts in orbit are arguing whether we have global warming or global cooling.
One of them says, “We’re probably warming things up by burning all the oil, delaying the next ice age that’s supposed to start - and we’re running out of oil!”
So this hypothesis has been around for a while, as well as posed as an excuse for the global warming pause since 2000.
What Jum Jones did to his people Guyanna makes more sense than what these European leaders are doing to their people. I just can’t wrap my mind around this madness.
