Investor’s Business Daily asks a very important question:Â If the hurricane experts can’t accurately predict how bad a hurricane season will be for just one year, why should we believe the Church disciples know what the climate will be for the next 10-20 years:
For years, the Greenshirts have told us that emissions of carbon dioxide resulting from man’s addiction to fossil fuel-based energy are turning the planet into a sweltering hothouse. The United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change has projected a temperature increase of 2 to 11.5 degrees Fahrenheit for the 21st century due to the greenhouse effect.
As a result, alarmists say, ice caps will melt, glaciers will thaw and sea levels will rise as much as 20 feet, causing floods and death in low-lying areas. Storms are also predicted to increase in both frequency and intensity.
To prevent this coming Category 5 cataclysm, we’re supposed to shell out trillions of dollars and gladly adopt Spartan lifestyles. Instead of trying, as their grandparents did, to see how many bodies they can squeeze into a telephone booth, today’s college kids are expected to see how many they can get in a Prius.
Yet the fact remains: The local weatherman can’t forecast more than about 10 days out, and neither can the experts tell us how warm, or cool, the planet is going to be in 2100, 2075 or even 2050.
You will be told that that is because climate isn’t weather. I know because I have been given that same line many times. Yet Church members attribute every weather anomaly, every natural disaster, every hot day, to climate change. The Kool-Aid is indeed strong in the Church of Global Warming.
