RE:RE:RE:RE:Great Intro signed by over 31,400 scientists to IPCC Fraud
Sticks and stones. Difference between you and I is I look at the numbers , provide objective proof of the declining growth in investment in renewables in my posts with links with real numbers. Trends change, you just provide opinions, you probably believe the media about climate change as well. You call people stupid, that's a reflection on you, cognitive dissonance.
Trouble is these same folks who push climate change are highly motivated, follow the money, lots of money involved, government subsidies a necessity so gotta bring on board the politicians. Guys like Gore, private jets , multiple homes (one on the water in California) a carbon footprint the size of a Tennesse county. "Climate scientists" who often are not accredited are dependant on grants to prove a given outcome for their political masters. Oh but you should change your lifestyle and abondon fossil fuels, buy solar and buy wind. I live in Ontario , were done with that, there is a shift in Germany, China. Australia who led the charge on wind and solar. Gores first film debunked, full of lies, the ice in the Arctic and Antarctic still with us, fact is the Antartic hit a record maximum in 2014. How do you explain that, when its cold it's climate change , when its warm it's climate change, the media impacts those that don't think for themselves.
The media sway with the wind, have tremendous biases , they are followers, not leaders. All those folks and their projections over the years have managed to convince some in society but that happens, the masses suffer thru this repeatedly. Meanwhile fossil fuel demand grows year in and year out, carbon taxes will do nothing to change that. Eventually when they bite the masses hard enough the folks who push them will be gone. You can count on that.
Trudeau's dad won a majority in 1980 64% of the population voted for the Libs and the NDP that election, never a mention of climate change in that campaign. On Monday 64% of the population voted for the Greens, the NDP and the Libs. The Greens can't even get enough votes to put enough people in parliament to get official party status, that's how much their stance on climate change matters, 3 of 338. Economics matters, dependency on gov't matters, when people get sick of deficits (and they will) , when carbon taxes pinch the economy (and they will) then Trudeau and his policies will be gone , just like his dad and his National Energy Program. One day your loved, next your hated, thats politics.
Sometimes it just takes awhile for the public to clue in on how stupid those policies are. In 1978 Congress passed a law banning nat gas use in new power generation plants (they were afraid we would run out of nat gas for home heating because of the cold decade we had in the 70's and gas supplies were tight) , took about 6 years and they cancelled that law. The subsidies of renewables just another one in a long line of policy issues that ebb and flow.
Didn't take long for Ontario voters to say enough was enough with renewables, double their energy bills and they turfed the Liberals. That policy of investing in renewables in Ontario cancelled practically over night. That's a fact. Australia a few months ago decided enough was enough and voted out the gov't who was pushing wind and solar. Germany is revising down their spending on renewables, China as well. I see Walmart is suing Tesla over fires in their solar panels, shut down one store for a week, stoppped further installations. The only reason they installed them in the first place was gov't subsidies for doing it. Sorta like Cdns paying Loblaws $12m to install more efficient freezers, dumb policy. The left is full of that sorta stuff.
Math and physics matter, economics matter, renewables don't matter much, mostly perception and virtuous signalling by politicians and those that are invested in them financially or spiritually.
