Earth Day

To clearly see that climate alarmism is nothing less than a religion, look no further than the Earth Day manifestation that took place yesterday in London. People dressed up in costumes, banged drum and praised Earth as a deity. Things don't get closer to a good old Catholic carnival than this.

Even my eleven year old son has caught onto the stupidity of it all. "Earth is dying," he says with a wry smile, clearly not believing any of it, despite this now being pushed in schools as #Science. But #Science was also integral in the virus scare that everyone but a tiny minority now realize was a scam, so this trademark is not what it used to be. In fact, anything sold under the #Science brand can be safely dismissed as hyperbole, and this is happening at an accelerating pace.

Climate scepticism is on the rise despite increased efforts to promote climate alarmist policies. People are waking up to the fact that it's all a ploy to tax the public in order to fund inefficient solutions provided by politically connected corporations. Besides, real science doesn't support any of the alarming statements made over the past 30+ years. Readily available graphs and data show this winter to have been one of the most snow rich winters in decades. The Snow Water Equivalent for this winter is two standard deviations above the 1998 to 2011 average. That's a far cry from Al Gore's claim that snow will be a thing of the past.

My favourite webcam at the Hadangervidda plain of Norway shows no lack of snow. There's absolutely nothing alarming going on, and to believe that this will suddenly change over the next couple of years requires religious conviction of the kind manifested yesterday in London.

The climate movement is past its prime, and has now jumped the shark, so to speak. It's all down hill from here. The more effort they put into their fear mongering, the less people will believe it. This too is evidence that 2022 really was a historic turning point. We've entered a new era, and all the institutions built up since 1913, the beginning of the progressive era, will either vanish or be greatly transformed.
