Maxeiner’s Satirical Piece On The Absurdity of Climate Science

Some of us of course ask how is it that some people can be brought to the point of believing such absurdity? A new standard of public-dumbing-down has unquestionably been reached.

Indeed Maxeiner makes us realize that one has to be quite gullible on a variety of issues to believe the State can regulate climate. It’s official:

"The State is now responsible for our weather”.

Cancun Climate Protesters Throw Feces, Destroy Property

Global-warming protesters in Cancun for the United Nations COP16 climate summit poured human feces in the streets, threw eggs at police, attacked American fast-food establishments, and generally went on a rampage demanding “action” and “climate justice,” among other things.

Mexican riot police were out in force, some of them driving military trucks with machine guns attached. But unlike the summit in Copenhagen last year — where police were lambasted in the press for beating and caging out-of-control climate marauders — so far there have not been reports of impropriety or police misconduct. Estimates for the larger demonstrations in Cancun put the figure at around 1,500, however — much smaller than the crowds at the COP15.

We all believed for twenty years that it was due to global warming – as Hansen predicted.

But then something happened. The climate swang back the other direction (like it always does.) This was not a CO2 driven monotonic trend, but rather a cycle.

Most people accepted the fact that they were wrong and moved on. Others just started manipulating the data in hopes that they could control the climate by lying to themselves and everyone else. An adult might label that sort of behaviour – “insanity.”

It May Be Record Cold Over Much Of The Planet For The Past Two Winters, But It Is The Hottest Year Ever | Real Science

When people have been living a lie for too long, they start to believe that they are correct and the gods are wrong.

They just need to make their lie a little larger and extend it a little longer, and eventually it will become the truth.

Philip Stott: Dr Pangloss Alive And Well At Cancún

This is even more the case when we note the extraordinary decline of global-warming coverage and interest throughout the British media since Copenhagen. Until this last Friday, one would have hardly known that Cancún was a two-week conference, and, even now, after it has limply concluded, the coverage is so slim as to merit comment.

For example, as far as I can judge, in the main 'Sunday Times', the conference does not achieve a single mention, while the climate-change obsessed 'Observer' manages only half-an-inside page and a short, mealy-mouthed editorial partly worthy of Dr Pangloss himself.

The reality is surely dawning, if too slowly, that, to paraphrase Voltaire's famous 1767 letter to Fredrick the Great, King of Prussia: "Global warming is the most ridiculous, the most absurd and cost-raising farce that ever infected the world."
