The idea that carbon dioxide (CO2) drives global warming or “climate change” now enjoys unquestioned authority and near universal approval. As burgeoning public policy, nationally and in some states, it is seeping into what once were private matters of choice (e.g., light bulbs, kitchen cooktops). Many scientists, primarily physicists, consider the belief pure supposition, however, and colossally off track. John Stuart Mill observed in chapter six of his System of Logic, on ratiocination or logical thinking, that a doctrine may endure because inferences from it lead to ostensibly sound conclusions -- while belief in the doctrine’s truth may exist only by excluding evidence it is false.

Comments:

More solid indicators that the political/social dogma of CO2 being harmful, and a cause of global warming is totally baloney.\
Actually, CO2 is a very beneficial gas, required for all green plant growth, and COOLS the planet.

It reminds me think of Lysenko in the early Soviet Union. Science was replaced with political science and millions starved … mostly Ukrainians.

CO2 control is population control. It's what the WEF wants. It's what our Bureaucrats want. It's a farce.

"Greenhouse gases" is a scary focus group statement. I've been in many greenhouses. The only "gas" in there in oxygen, converted fron Co2 by plants.

The actual hard scientists are being careful not to say things that will look stupid if this is all untrue. If they believed it they would be pushing and shoving to have their names out front and that is absolutely not what they are doing. Go ask someone with a hard science Ph.D. and tell them you will be publishing their remarks with name attached. see what happens. What won't happen is they puff out their chests and say it is all true and their contribution to this conclusion has been vital.

Warming due to CO2 is a passing fad. When eliminating it from civilization does not stop climate change, the next target will be an even stronger greenhouse gas: Water Vapor. We will need trillions of bitcoin bucks to eliminate humidity, clouds, rain/snow and oceans in order to save our environment and keep our ‘betters’ in tyrannical control.

Consider 140 million years ago. Compared to today’s 390 ppm the proportion was2800 ppm. Plant ecology was booming. Dinosaurs were thriving. Why? A simple secret. The capacity of each CO2 molecule to affect warming is exponentially and inversely proportional to its percentage in the atmosphere. At 2800 ppm CO2 molecules were so individually weak that the overall effect was similar to what it is now. They will NEVER tell you this. But, please, go investigate for yourselves.

It is either consensus or it is science. It cannot be both. Unless someone is irretrievably stupid. Or unless someone paid a panel of democrats to say it was.

What do you think of when you hear “placebo-controlled clinical trial?” Most people familiar with the term will understand it to be the standard way many drugs are tested in order to determine efficacy and safety before they are licensed and marketed to the general public. It’s usually understood to involve a pharmacologically inactive or inert pill with no active ingredient producing no medical effect as part of a control group used to draw a comparison between it and the experimental drug under inspection. But if you thought that this is what is used to test the safety of vaccines, you’d be wrong.

China is a problem. It’s an immediate problem for Taiwan, but it’s also a long-term problem for America, given that it’s our greatest geopolitical enemy (no matter what Democrats say about Russia! Russia! Russia!). However, Ben Shapiro has put together an excellent short video detailing the structural problems that bedevil China and that put it both at risk of implosion and explosion. Over the years, I’ve written often about China, both the threat it poses and the weaknesses it has. I’ve covered its demographic problems, the way it’s overreached itself with its belt-and-road policies, its shaky internal economy, and its showy but surprisingly weak military.

NYC fire officials probe if e-bike battery

A 93-year-old New York City woman died, and another was rescued, when fire and smoke filled a building. Firefighters said one focus of the investigation is on an e-bike battery that might have exploded into flames. If so, it would add to the mounting number of deaths city officials blame on malfunctioning e-bike batteries. With some 65,000 e-bikes zipping through its streets, New York City is the epicenter of battery-related fires. There have been more than 100 such blazes so far this year, resulting in at least 14 deaths, already more than double the six fatalities last year.

Okay, so let me get this straight regarding the “quirks” of electric vehicles. If you’re fleeing a natural disaster, like a hurricane for instance, the nature of the design might impede efficient and safe evacuation; or they might simply explode, because exposure to salt water can link the positive and negative battery terminals, causing a short circuit. Well, if they’re just sitting there too I guess, there’s still a heightened risk of spontaneous explosion with a long-burning, extra-hot, inextinguishable fire. They don’t really work in “cold” weather, and now, according to new data, “excessive heat can greatly diminish electric vehicle range” too?

The hard left actually believes it reflects the opinions of all Democrats and indeed all liberals. This is simply not true. The hard left is in conflict with the majority of Americans, left, right or center. Does Mayor Adams of NYC agree with the border policy of the present administration? Does anyone living in the areas distressed by their policies? The hard left is a tiny minority, yet it yields amazing power, in the media, government, the courts, business, bureaucracies, and politics. These self-proclaimed "elites" (hard left) are largely in control of what we see and hear. Yes, they even call themselves "elite."

One of the things characterizing the Biden administration is incoherence. Biden is frequently completely unintelligible, mumbling sounds to himself and his audience. Kamala offers wordy, banal phrases that fail to hide that her premise, conclusion, and argument are all identical. And Karine Jean-Pierre, despite having her eyes glued to her notes most of the time, is the Sergeant Schultz of press secretaries, for she knows nothing most of the time. It’s hardly surprising, therefore, to learn that the Biden White House has purged over 30% of the people allowed press passes…none of whom belong to the major MSM outlets.

New Hampshire Secretary of State David Scanlan (R) is consulting with the state attorney general to determine if the U.S. Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment empowers him to keep former President Donald Trump off the 2024 presidential ballot. As secretary of state, Scanlan oversees New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation presidential primary that will take place at the beginning of 2024. However, Scanlan has caught wind of scholars’ recent arguments that the Fourteenth Amendment’s Disqualification Clause prohibits Trump from being on the presidential ballot. As ABC7 Chicago detailed:

Throughout my time campaigning for public office, over the course of several Republican Party primaries I ran against an incumbent, as an incumbent, and for an open seat. The last GOP primary I contested was for our party’s nomination for Michigan’s 11th Congressional District in 2002. Fortunately, I was successful in every one of these primaries and, later, in the ensuing general elections. What helped make these latter general election victories possible was the grace and magnanimity of my defeated GOP primary rivals, each of whom supported my campaigns against Democrat opponents.

Dr George Koob, America's alcohol czar, said that evidence had increasingly indicated no amount of alcohol was good for human health. Yet every year, studies hint that when consumed in moderation, there may be mild benefits to drinking alcohol.

Raleigh, NC— North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper vetoed a sweeping Republican elections bill Thursday that would end a grace period for voting by mail and make new allowances for partisan poll observers. In a video message, the Democratic governor accused legislative Republicans of using their slim veto-proof majorities to execute “an all-out assault on the right to vote,” which he said has nothing to do with election security and everything to do with their party keeping and gaining power. The bill would make voting more difficult for young and nonwhite voters who are are more likely to vote absentee and less likely to elect Republicans, he said.
