ALARM: Two decades ago, the United Nations came up with several models that all predicted that by 2015, the Earth would have warmed by at least a degree Fahrenheit.
REALITY: In that time period, there has been virtually no warming at all. This has not deterred alarmists; they are oh-so-confident that the warming will pick up again REALLY SOON!
ALARM: A guide on the Pennsylvania EPA website says the planet’s oil reserves will likely be all used up by 2015.
REALITY: Because of technological innovations, the amount of our oil reserves is now double what it was two decades ago.
ALARM: A 2012 report by the Polar Ocean Physics Group at the University of Cambridge predicted that arctic sea ice would be completely gone before 2020 and possibly as early as 2015.
REALITY: The ice reached its lowest point in 2014, when it covered about 1.7 million square miles — an area nearly half the size of the United States. Since then, it has increased.
ALARM: In the 1980s, Dr. John Holdren predicted that carbon dioxide induced climate change “could kill as many as a billion people before the year 2020.” Holdren, who currently serves as the White House Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, said he does not view that statement as having been a “prediction” or “forecast” per se. Plus, you know, he’s got five more years left, so we NEEEEEEED to follow through on “the sensible measures in the President’s Climate Action Plan,” by which he means regulate our industries into oblivion.
REALITY: It’s tough to know how these people actually feel about the fact that there has been no climate catastrophe to kill off a billion people. They say they don’t want anything that bad to happen (so we need to regulate Regulate REGULATE), but they also say that the human species is a plague on the planet and we need to reduce Reduce REDUCE our population drastically (so YES PLEASE to enthusiastic support for voluntary and forced birth control, abortion, euthanasia, assisted suicide, and denial of health care for humans who are defective, sick, old, expensive or just a nuisance to the Powers That Be).
