Lies the IPCC will tell you
The recent announcement by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the UN body charged with whipping up global hysteria over climate change, that “developing countries” would be exempt from emission cuts is proof that the idea of catastrophic climate change is a total scam that’s much more focused on improving economic conditions in the Third World than on combating climate change. The reasoning behind such a conclusion should be obvious, given that if the earth’s climate truly were on the verge of a total and catastrophic collapse, then no one would really care about whether or not developing countries should be exempted from carbon emissions.Media Muzzles Climate Change Debate - Chris Horner - HUMAN EVENTS
You may never have heard of Dr. James Hansen of NASA, whom the Left bills as the “world’s leading climate scientist.” This status was not achieved by virtue of training (he’s an astronomer), but because he’s the world’s most hysterical scientist on the issue who also happens to have a job with the United States government. As such, he was a useful idiot for the media these past eight years.
Hansen’s obscurity is so great that he only managed to appear in or be the subject of two thousand “news” items during the George W. Bush presidency. As Hansen told hundreds and hundreds of reporters, he was being “muzzled” during that time.
...
As I have chronicled, one side in this debate issues death threats, professional threats, physical attacks, and condemnations of those who refuse to submit as ignorant, corrupt or a drooling old fool. The other side doesn’t. One side insists on telling you what you simply must think; the other simply asks you to think.
Thought, like speech, of course, is “dangerous,” as the chief EPW staffer behind these described efforts was just called by a leading alarmist organ. Thought leads to all sorts of things, like resistance. And resistance could cause the entire, multi-billion dollar global warming industry to crumble, and crumble fast in times such as these.
So, just to be safe, the media finally found that legendary muzzle, and applied it to themselves.
