Klimahysteriet er ikke et nytt fenomen. Avisene har til alle tider fråtset i alarmismen og sensasjonelle oppslag. Salg av katastrofer og sensasjoner selger. Tidligere var det kanskje mer sporadisk, men når slike nyheter blir koordinert i en samkjørt presse dirigert av IPCC, WEF og Blackrock da får man en propagandistisk effekt uten sidestykke. Folk får inntrykk av at katastrofene faktisk øker, men så viser data at det ikke er tilfelle. Det er frekvensen av omtale av katastrofene som øker og ikke katastrofene.
Klimanettsiden til Tony Heller (Real Climate Science) ble sommeren 2023 angrepet av aktivister og han fikk alle sine bloggposter og 10-tusenvis av bilder, møysommelig innsamlet over mange år, slettet. Aktivistene var faktisk den bedriften som hostet nettsiden hans, og som påsto at de ble fri for diskplass og deretter slettet hans bilder uten at de ga beskjed, fikk hans tillatelse eller tok backup.
Når han klagde til dem fikk han beskjeden: “(you are) very illustrative of why the country so hates right-wing influencers who can’t see beyond their own grift and selfish hypocrisy”
Vi gjengir her en av hans viktigste arbeider som er innsamling av klimahysteriske alarmer, advarsler og forutsigelser som alle har feilet miserabelt. Han har samlet inn over 100 år med slike spådommer.
Failed Apocalyptic Forecasts
“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”
– H. L. Mencken
Academics have been forecasting doom for my entire life. Needless to say, it hasn’t happened, as we are still here.

“Dateline Earth 2040:
As sea levels continue to rise due to the melting of polar ice caps and heat-induced expansion of seawater, the United Nations is reporting an unprecedented world refugee problem. Tens of millions. have been forced to relocate from the globe’s coastal areas. In the cases of some islands, entire populations have had to move. The Maldives off India, the Marshall Islands in the Pacific, and several Caribbean nations are now virtually underwater,
Never in history have refugees of this number been compelled to flee because their land has simply’ disappeared. Bangladesh, a nation of flat plains centered on a vast Della, has seen a full sixth of its landmass submerged. . In Egypt, rising seas have engulfed 15 percent of the arable land, displacing 14 percent of the population. The numbers in Holland are similar.
Sea levels, already five feet higher than they were 50 years ago. in’ the late 1960s, are expected to rise another foot in the coming decade.
Since hurricanes are linked to the temperature of ocean surface, which is rising, parts of the world have lately been devastated by storms of unequaled power. The last 10 years have seen hurricanes, that are 50 percent more severe than any in the previous century. This has caused ruinous flooding in regions from Miami to Galveston to the entire New Jersey shore.
Meanwhile, coastal buildings throughout America’ continue to erode into the rising ocean. Millions of acres of developed seaside land are now awash in rising tides, and are uninhabitable.
A few cities continue to fight back, but the cost is high. The municipal debt crises in Boston and New York deepen as both cities pour billions into constructing sea walls of historic size,
The walls have not, however, been able to stop salt water con- lamination of fresh water re- vs. Congress is now debating prison terms for violation of the nation’s 10-year-old. federal mandatory water conservation laws.
The latest climatology report has found that global temperatures on average were 10 degrees higher this past decade than in the 1980s — a bigger leap than in the previous several million years. Thermometers in the southwest this summer have routinely crested 120 degrees.
There are now palm trees in Philadelphia.
As most scientists now agree, each time global temperatures rise by one degree, climates shift 100.-miles. northward. In middle America, that. has been accompanied by an enormous migration. The population of Canada has increased. a staggering eight times from 20 million-in the 1980s to 160 million today, It is estimated that there are now over 1,000 deserted towns in America’s Midwest.
The Mississippi, which hasn’t been used by commercial barges for several decades because of parched summer temperatures, is now, in parts, able to be crossed by foot.
Both Canada and the Soviet Union, meanwhile, are reporting record grain harvests, once again surpassing American production.
In Washington, the president’s popularity has sunk to an all-time lows but he continues to charge that the severity of the warming phenomenon lies not at his door.
It lies, he insists, at the doors of the administrations of the late 1980s and 1990s, who refused to act with courage and vision.”

I have hundreds more of these predictions on file, but this is enough to get the point across. Climate alarmists, and alarmists in general, are incompetent, dishonest hacks – who change their story every time the wind shifts. And no matter how many times they are wrong, they never lose credibility with the press.
