Earth’s climate is always changing. But despite the warming hysterics’ wild claims, it’s not changing at an alarming rate. Remember, when they cite United Nations reports warning of soaring temperatures and rising sea levels, the projections cover many decades, not just a few years. Of course there was a moment when the climate did change rapidly. It was so long ago, though, none of us can remember it.
Yet it happened. Many centuries before the first oil well was drilled. Almost 1,500 years ago.
The foundation of the global warming obsession on the left is largely based on U.N. predictions

The climate alarmists have been successful at shutting us down by simply labeling us "deniers." You know, climate change deniers, Biden election deniers, insurrection deniers...Their tactics put us in the peculiar position of having to DENY being a DENIER.
Here's a great way to turn the tables on them and give them a taste of their own medicine. Call them HISTORY deniers or FACTUAL deniers and start chanting "536" at every opportunity. Going on the offense for a change might work wonders. It's worth a try.

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary". HL Mencken
"On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron"

Not an intellectual or scientist, but pretty sure there were ‘far fewer’ planes, cars and trucks operating at that time. Today’s Democrat Party and their clueless lemmings embrace every wackadoodle crusade and idea in today’s world. ‘Stupidity’ is a sad thing; ‘Powerful Stupidity’ is dangerous. Many Americans have concluded these people hate America, and are doing their best to weaken and destroy her.

Fear , THE weapon of the left. Masks are a symbol of fear. By the way , windmills are 6th century technology. We can and we have done better , oil, gas, nuclear, but the left is opposed to freedom and security for the people.

Would someone please educate us on what the Earth's temperature should be? Do we acknowledge the four seasons, or, should the temperature remain static?

The essay makes the excellent point that the "climate scientists" are actually fulfilling the roles of witches, sorcerers and magicians of old king's courts.
I tend to think of them a shamen with their bag of colored pebbles, bone fragments and tiny feathers. They dump out their bag onto a skin and "read the bones" to discern whether a virgin must be tossed into the volcano, or a goat sacrificed this year "to appease the gods".
If you ever meet anyone in a social setting who says that they are a "climate scientist", I suggest that the proper response is a long, loud horse laugh. These charlatans need to be laughed at, never, ever respected or taken seriously.

We've been here before. Ask yourselves this. Why is Greenland called that. Because when the Vikings (via Iceland) first reached there in 1100 AD. + , it looked like Ireland looks today.

The leftists are like parrots, they get ahold of a phrase and just squawk about it over, and over. It's about controlling our movement, they don't care about the environment.

Global Warming, aka, Climate Change is the biggest hoax, the biggest money grabber ever. This scam has become a religion, a cult for those stealing billions from the public. Not one of these hypocrites is ever held accountable for the lies and cheating they have done over the years. Not one, not one of their dire predictions has ever come to fruition. NYC is NOT under water, the polar bears are NOT extinct and the coral reefs in Australia are NOT depleted and like the polar bears they are thriving. To all of you climate illiterates out there, think about this. As we speak, Barack Hussein Obama, is building a mansion on OCEAN FRONT property in Hawaii. On top of that, Obama has installed a 2000 gallon GAS TANK to support his lavish lifestyle. This from a hypocrite who forces climate change mandates down your throat while he does the complete opposite. Do you freakin get it yet. Wake up.

The Great Lakes were covered by glaciers 15,000 years ago. We are in an interglacial era.

Sorry for the 2nd post. What should be the earth's temp? The answer is in two factors 1. Earth's mass. 2. It's distance from the Sun. Both of which are constant and not under our control. 1. Determines the gravitational force and therefore atmospheric pressure - 1.0 Atmospheres by definition. 2. determines the solar energy which falls on the surface. All major rocky bodies - Venus, Earth, Mars I.e. planets and the Moon, Triton (Jupiter), Titan ( Saturn) i.e. satellites follow this formula. Check it out. Note that the composition of the atmosphere I.e. percentage of CO2 has no bearing.

The entire planet has been gradually' warming since the last ice age...and has been through at least dozens of similar cycles of glaciation/cooling over hundreds of millions of years before that.
Until the so-called "climate scientists" can demonstrate how their computer models account for such cycles, the models are worthless.

Geez. Where were all of these climate scientists when Ian happened? If you believe their claims, they should be able to predict hurricanes and other natural disasters decades in advance. Why don't they ever do that?

Human activity has no effect on the global climate.
Volcanoes have HUGE effects on global climate, and have done so many times in recorded history.

Geologists still can't tell which volcano(es) caused the event, nor even whether any particular volcano actually erupted -- just that they analyzed some ice cores and found elevated levels of atmospheric sulfites around that many years ago, from which they inferred it was a volcano.
Seems a little facile to me, though. What if some careless person in the wrong place and the wrong time just happened to the wrong door open, and like Mom and Dad always nagged us every winter, to close the door or it'll let all the heat out?

iirc, there was a warming in the middle ages that allowed the brits to grow grapes and make wine.

As Bjorn Lomborg likes to remind us, cold kills far more people than heat does.

# 15 The earth being 4.5 billion years old and still evolving , there is no correct temperature for any and all of the earths various climates. The dems would like you to think that there is , it's the core of their globalwarming/climatechange agenda/scam. People should ask that question whenever a greenie pol speaks.

#14 speaks for me. And it is also about political control - i.e., communism.
