Even if the timing and duration of global warming are exaggerated, the desire to decrease pollution and smog by renewable energy should still be promoted and encouraged.
Electric Cars burn 31% more energy in the life cycle of Electricity from production to usage than do gas cars ! Zero Emissions is the 'Big Lie'. Wind turbines ? 800 Lbs. of Rare Earth Magnets . . . production in Mongolia releases more radiation than ALL the Nuclear reactors in the USA - Every Day ! Wishful thinking is Good ! Being fooled by propaganda just means you don't do your research.
M. Ragheb in Global Climate Variation, Change and Energy Use, 2019 on pages 16 and 17, he spells out clearly the natural sources of CO2 and man’s contribution. Of the 186 billion tones of CO2 entering the atmosphere annually, 180 billion tones come from nature and 6 billion tones are man’s contribution. My simple math says 6 divided by 186 is 3%. He did not do this calculation in his text. Furthermore, The IPCC in its own research produces a similar finding in a published graph “Global Natural and Anthropogenic Sources and Absorption of Greenhouse Gasses in the 1990’s”, finding, CO2 from natural causes is 793 billion tones, Man-Made sources is 23 billion tones. 23 divided by 793 is 2.9 %. Again, no calculations are presented for summary or review.
Overall I would agree with you. A science-based, apolitical approach is the key. But I fear that with the current environment on both sides, it's an uphill battle.
“Science”? Nope. These are hard-nosed, steely-eyed practitioners of power games. This is an assorted bunch of born gangsters, psychopaths, empire-builders, closeted totalitarians and other predatory individuals who see in the rest of humanity a mere canvass for their self-realization.
Great article......I just completed read Erik Larson book "Isaac's Storm" which is an account of the great Hurricane which destroyed Galveston on September 8, 1900. This storm has been described as the "Deadliest Hurricane in history"and took 8000 lives. Those so called "climate scientists" who use recent significant hurricanes as evidence as to man made climate issues, need to read this book. I suppose that now you have exposed yourself as a "denier or outlier"" you too can expect to be pilloried, shamed and possibly punished by the pseudo climate scientist and their enabling media.
CO2 . . . Nature 97 % . . . . Man 3 % . . . . . The Paris accord 0.6 %
A justifiable disdain for wide-spread pollution that is totally out of control has led to our current, well founded narrative, conducted by Politicians and Environmental Advocates World Wide. Unfortunately, that narrative has been hijacked by ‘Spin Doctors’ and their allies in the Environmental Movement and the Media. Humanity has been hypnotized into believing that CO2 is causing Climate Change. Environmentalists the world over have taken over the socio-political narrative with an easy, unsubstantiated view that CO2 is the New Devil to be defeated
So many things have been blamed on ’Man-Made’ Climate Change that anything, even remotely plausible is gladly accepted as fact by the masses. Warming Oceans, chunks falling off of Antarctica, forest fires, melting Glaciers, extreme storms, drought, even locusts are blamed on Man’s messing with nature by burning fossil fuels and the resultant elevated CO2 . . . All of these things could be Man-Made, if we have heard anything the Evangelical Environmentalists have been telling us for the last 20 years, yes.
When Nature and Science get a voice from History, most if not all of what we are hearing about Climate Change can be seen over and over from the pages of History. All the ‘Climate Change’ we are seeing today has happened before. The Roman Warming Period and The Middle Ages Warming Period are both recorded in writing and from Ice Core sampling. The purveyors of our current Narrative on Climate Change have chosen NOT to view these records as relevant. ‘Everyone knows it’s Man-Made’.
History and Modern Science will have a voice. Naturel cycles on Planet Earth will regain credence for their frequency and their Power to Change the World. Volcanoes on land and below the Oceans will demonstrate Nature’s power to cause Global Cooling and Global Warming and reinstate Nature’s dominant roll in Climate Change. Humans are no more likely to influence Climate Change with CO2, than setting off an Atomic Bomb will alter the Earth’s path as it circles the Sun . . .
The earth will get absorbed by the sun in about 500 million years plus or minus a few. By then Elon Musk's outcrop on Mars will be fully functional and vibrant. The earths cycles are induced by movements in our plate tectonics, which effects the summer solstice and aligns it with the aphelion. Glaciation occurs every 100,000 years , we are probably in the middle of a cycle, but who is counting. Isn't Wikipedia wonderful ;)
From Koonin its all about ozone depletion. As the sun regenerates ozone, hopefully faster than we destroy it, then we should be back to normal concentrations by 2070. I don't think I will be around to see it though. Australia is forecasting an increase of 150 Terawatts of electricity will be required to fully convert. I assume its about 1500 Terawatts or a 1.5 petawatts for the USA maybe about 60 nuclear power stations. Or maybe a boatload of wind turbines.
Does this mean that once Trudeau and Dougie Ford say it’s ok I can use my bbq for a family gathering? Great article. Definitely assists me in the on going debate with teenage grand kids!!

Green car congress 05 September 2018
Unlike conventionally fueled vehicles, electric vehicles experience a loss of energy during “refueling,” with an energy loss of about 16% from the wall power to the battery during charging. https://www.greencarcongress.com/2018/09/20180905fotw.html#:~:text=Unlike%20conventionally%20fueled%20vehicles%2C%20electric,to%20the%20battery%20during%20charging.
31 % is Lost getting Electricity from Power Plant to Electric Motor
let’s Calculate Total Input Factors for Electricity Starting at Production
All Power Plants use a Thermodynamic Cycle - The Efficiencies are about of 35%
Coal, Diesel, Nuclear, Natural Gas and Bio Fuel Combined . . . That is 81% of all Electricity
31 % of that is Heat Loss During Transmission and Charging 35% x 15% = 10.85 %
35 % - 10.85% = 24.15% of What Was Produced Goes to the Wheels of Electric Motor
Gas Powered Vehicles after Burning fuels have 35 % going to the Wheels
10.85% multiplied by 35% = 31 % is Heat loss during Transmission and Charging
Therefore . . . Electric Vehicles burn 31 % more Energy per Kilometer Driven

Dear Noah,

Good. Press, politicians and purchased scientists - classic bandwagon effect.....all climbing aboard cause it's the latest thing....even if it's going nowhere.
