Welcome to the petrol prices warmenists demanded


Welcome to the petrol prices warmenists demanded | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog
Time the left side of the brain knew what the right side was thinking. First, the green “solutions” to global warming truly do involve pain. Second, despite this pain we’re feeling already, emissions continue to soar, meaning this is barely the entree, and prices must rise far more still. Third, given this, it makes sense to weigh the cost of “solutions” to global warming with their benefits, to see whether it wouldn’t just be cheaper, after all, to do not much.

And maybe voters will finally have an incentive to check the assumptions of the global warming alarmists. Isn’t it true that the planet hasn’t warmed since 1998? Isn’t it true that the latest predictions are that it might not warm for another decade or two at least? If so, how much faith can we put in the models upon which the warming alarmists relied to predict rapid warming and to demand a painful tax on carbon?
