According to a new study, people think Yale studies lie. (sample size: self)

According to a new study published by Yale, Americans are willing to pay a carbon tax that would increase their household energy bills by $15 per month, or about 15%, on average. This result is consistent with a survey from last year that also found Americans are willing to pay an average of $15 to $20 per month to combat climate change.

Uhm, no. No one asked me, and my answer would be very simply - what combat climate change how, exactly? The sun is the driving factor in all global climate, so how do you propose we fight the sun?

We already pay for our fuel. We don’t want to pay a tax on what isn’t the damn government’s.

Let me TRANSLATE what this means. It means that most Americans believe that they can maintain their EXACT LIFESTYLE if it costs an additional $15 to $20 per month.

If they were instead asked if they’re willing to live with 82F thermostats in summer, 62F thermostats in winter, and a Yugo instead of their SUV, the support for that would drop to about 12%.

The point being that making life cost $200 more per year, without ANYTHING else being done, as the survey states, is something that most people can live with...particularly if they think they’re somehow saving the world at the same time.

But tell them that their lives must suck in order to change the world, WHICH IS THE CASE (and then still very questionable), and they won’t stand for that, not for a minute!!!

Delingpole: Now 400 Scientific Papers in 2017 Say ‘Global Warming’ Is a Myth

When I reported earlier this year on the 58 scientific papers published in 2017 that say global warming is a myth the greenies’ heads exploded.

Since then, that figure has risen to 400 scientific papers.

Can you imagine the misery and consternation and horror this is going to cause in the corrupt, rancid, rent-seeking world of the Climate Industrial Complex?

I can. It will look something like this.

Just to be clear, so the greenies can’t bleat about being misrepresented, here is what these various papers say:
