The Daily Plunge

I have to admit, watching the great “Global Warming consensus” retreat has given me a great deal of satisfaction. When it comes to the theory of man-caused Global Warming I have never been a blind ideologue. There are many environmental issues that I think are much more important than this frenzied paranoia about climate change.

Thomas Malthus was wrong about population trends, but he is proof that being an alarmist never grows old. In fact, all the cool people are still afraid of over population.

Many of the issues I’ve had with temperature data over the past 20 years or so has to do with how temperature is measured in the first place. Due to urban heat the temperature in cities is often much warmer than the surrounding countryside. Anthony Watts has covered this issue effectively for years, but his observations have always been shot down with the blood curdling screams of consensus. Or should I say “liberal condescension.” This is groupthink on a massive scale. The world has witnessed people like Al Gore fly around the world and receive standing ovations, Oscars, and a Nobel Peace prize for a fraud.

My guess is there will never be an Oscar given out on a documentary that discusses the great Global Warming swindle. The alarmists on the left will act like none of this ever happened, just like the Population Bomb and Silent Spring. In fact the theory will go on; it will never die. “Scientists” will reinforce the theory and cast aside the fraud. There’s too much money at stake. Climate Change is a billion-dollar research industry. Like William Wallace in Braveheart, researchers will cry, “You may take our lives, but they’ll never take our research dollars!”
