Climate crisis hysteria has been dismissed by a coalition of 1,609 international scientists and experts who signed a declaration issued by a global climate watchdog..“There is no climate emergency,” stated the World Climate Declaration recently released by the Global Climate Intelligence Group (CLINTEL)..“Therefore, there is no cause for panic and alarm.”.CLINTEL is an independent foundation that studies climate change policy and determines when “facts turn into assumptions and predictions.”. No climate emergency book cover .Global warming alarmists blame environmental damage on CO2 emissions..But the coalition that includes 122 Canadian signatories and two Nobel laureates — US physicists John Clauser and Ivan Giaever — stressed in the “urgent” message that CO2 is good for the planet that has warmed “significantly less” than predicted..“CO2 is not a pollutant. It is essential to all life on Earth … It is also profitable for agriculture, increasing the yields of crops worldwide.... We strongly oppose the harmful and unrealistic net-zero CO2 policy proposed for 2050. If better approaches emerge, and they certainly will, we have ample time to reflect and re-adapt. The aim of global policy should be ‘prosperity for all’ by providing reliable and affordable energy at all times.”.The coalition questioned the ‘science’ the alleged climate emergency is based on. Climate models aren’t “remotely plausible as policy tools” and “blow up the effect of greenhouse gases such as CO2,” while ignoring the reality that “enriching the atmosphere with CO2 is beneficial.”.“There is no statistical evidence that global warming is intensifying hurricanes, floods, droughts and suchlike natural disasters, or making them more frequent. However, there is ample evidence that CO2-mitigation measures are as damaging as they are costly,” they said..Well, doesn’t that contradict the relentless howls from political doomsayers who spend billions of taxpayer dollars to ‘combat’ global warming. Never mind that annoying little Swede who started lecturing the world at age 15. Even worse, many paid attention to her..“I don't think anybody can deny the impact of the climate crisis anymore. Just look around. Historic floods. I mean, historic floods. More intense droughts, extreme heat, significant wildfires have caused significant damage.” – US President Joe Biden.“Climate action can’t wait … Since 2015, Canada has been a committed partner in the fight against climate change, and as we move to a net-zero future, we will continue to do our part to cut pollution and build a cleaner future for everyone. Together, we will beat this crisis while creating a green economy and new middle-class jobs for Canadians.” — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau..“How dare you!” — Climate alarmist prop Greta Thunberg..“Climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific,” states the declaration. “Scientists should openly address uncertainties and exaggerations in their predictions of global warming, while politicians should dispassionately count the real costs as well as the imagined benefits of their policy measures.”.Climate discussions have “degenerated” into beliefs not based on sound science, said the coalition.. Greta ThunbergGreta Thunberg, "that annoying little Swede who started lecturing the world at age 15." (Linda Slobodian.) .“In particular, scientists should emphasize that their modeling output is not the result of magic: computer models are human made. What comes out is fully dependent on what theoreticians and programmers have put in: hypotheses, assumptions, relationships, parameterizations, stability constraints, etc.”.“To believe the outcome of a climate model is to believe what the model makers have put in. This is precisely the problem of today’s climate discussion to which climate models are central. Climate science has degenerated into a discussion based on beliefs, not on sound self-critical science.”.“We should free ourselves from the naïve belief in immature climate models. In future, climate research must give significantly more emphasis to empirical science.”.Meanwhile, the planet has always had “cold and warm phases.”.“The Little Ice Age ended as recently as 1850. Therefore, it is no surprise that we now are experiencing a period of warming.”.However, the warming is “far slower than predicted” by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. “Our advice to the European leaders is they should strive for a significantly better understanding of the climate system, while politics should focus on minimizing potential climate damage by prioritizing adaptation strategies based on proven and affordable technologies.”.The Trudeau government’s 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan aims to reach an emissions reduction target of 40% below 2005 levels by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050..Wouldn’t it be a shame if the coalition is right, and Canadians are forced to endure enormous expense and hardship — and fear that the world is going to burn up any time now — when there really is not a climate emergency at all..This is what the Western Standard is up againstThe Trudeau government is funding lies and propaganda by directly subsidizing the mainstream media. They do this to entrench the powerful Eastern, woke and corrupt interests that dominate the political, social and economic institutions in Canada.
