AT LAST…... A major media outlet has actually presented the OTHER SIDE of Man-Made Global Warming. Here, from the BBC, is the scientific case against anthropogenic warming, and the abundant and convincing evidence that we are experiencing an upswing in the age-old cycle driven by our nearest star, the sun.
Are you surprised to learn that the entire hysteria was apparently set in motion by…..(drum-roll, please) Margaret Thatcher?! I thought so.
The real moral outrage ought to come toward the end of the show, when the real-world costs of the hypocritically self-serving and one-sided application of “the precautionary principle” are laid bare…...and we find out that the major costs of “doing something” about global warming will fall on the poorest people on earth; people who can’t afford “carbon offsets”, and who will be denied electricity, running water, sewage service, and other modern conveniences we take for granted, and who will have to put up with high infant mortality and lower average lifespans….basically so that rich westerners can feel good about themselves.
Since the program was produced and broadcast, one of the experts who appears has claimed that he was misquoted and it was made to appear that he takes the exact opposite of what he actually believes. I have not read the details, if they are available, but no one else has repudiated either what they said, nor the overall message of the film…...
I’m sorry about the inconvenient format—but I can no longer find the complete version on YouTube.
