CLIMATE CHANGE IS NOW OFFICIALLY DEAD

By Bob Walsh

 

The social and economic impact of climate change.


What is often called the "Climate Change Hoax" is, too many people, a religion.  Lee Zeldin, the head of the Trump EPA, has pretty well killed off (at least officially) the Obama era climate policy that said we were all going to die if we didn't make radical changes in how we live our lives RIGHT THIS MINUTE or else we would all be swimming in salt water all the way up to Denver alongside the corpses of polar bears.  Strange, but it never happened.  The computer models are bullshit.  When people try to go backwards with them using known information and known results they turn out to be useless.  The government of the United States is now acknowledging the truth.

The Endangerment Finding, generated in 2009 under the Clean Air Act, was used to justify hundreds of billions of dollars in regulations, including the idiotic EV mandates.  This change will cause the largest deregulation in history.

It should be noted that the 2006 California Global Warming Solutions Act set up a target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by not later than 2020.  We actually did it in 2016.  The "change or die" wack jobs want to keep moving the goal posts.

A lot of the people pimping the climate change hoax are well meaning idiots.  Many are (IMHO) simply reincarnations of old-line commies who want to destroy our economic system and are very happy to use whatever mechanism presents itself to achieve that goal.

Cutting back on the spewing of bad things into the air is a laudable goal.  Destroying out economy is not.  As long as China and India continue to ignore such things there will be issues but we have gone a long way in the right direction.  We don't have to freeze in the dark eating locally sources roots and berries because the transport system is dead and the power grid is dead in order to achieve our goals.  
 
EDITOR'S NOTE: You can call the world's leading scientists "well meaning idiots," but climate change is for real and not a hoax. You don't have to be a scientist ... just look at the disappearing glaciers.
 
Killing the Obama climate change policies is a good thing, but it does not mean "climate change is now officially dead."
