The end is not nigh: in fact the future’s only just started

Intro by Watchdog

The following article provides a sane perspective on the issue of climate change.

At a time when the climate crisis psyop is struggling in the face of a reality that insists on not complying with its predictions and thus continues to be not as scary as the merchants of dismay would prefer, its engineers are desperately ramping up the fear as best they can.

This is done in essence by scouring the planet for a hurricane or a flood or a record high temperature somewhere or other and then talking them up and making out they are “everywhere”. The media of course falls over itself to help ramp up the terror in its traditional merchant-of-fear role.

This includes simply ignoring phenomena that do not fit the pattern they wish to portray, such as extreme cold areas around the planet, a current lessening overall of floods and hurricanes, the fact that rising CO2 levels FOLLOW rises in temperature, the considerable effects of varying solar activity, the complex and as yet not fully understood interplay of natural cycles and so on and so forth.

It includes too, pretended knowledge or expertise that is belied by the fact that those stridently asserting their understanding can’t actually use their “understanding” to produce accurate predictions. If your knowledge of an area is sound, then you should be able to use that knowledge to make accurate predictions from known factors. The fact that self-proclaimed climate experts have gotten virtually every prediction glaringly wrong tells us that theirs is pretended expertise.

On the matter of “climate change” they  are of course on a safe bet because it does nothing but change. I don’t know who all these alleged “climate change deniers” are because I’ve never met anyone who insists the climate is a stable and unchanging system. In fact, the inference that the climate is changing because we are hitting it with man-made co2 implies that if we did not do that it would not change. Which of course is, well, daft.

It does appear that at this point in history we are fortunate to have benefitted from a mild inter-glacial period in which the climate has been about as benign as it gets.

This may change over time. Indeed, some schools of thought believe we are heading for a cooler period as the Earth goes through one of its imperfectly understood cycles.  At present though, we seem to be in a warming period at least for the time being.

The truth of the matter is that, the relatively benign period notwithstanding, the climate of the planet tends to be challenging if not downright hostile and the key to our flourishing despite its strictures is our ingenuity and team work as a species.

Survival could be said to be a team game and the more capable our teamwork, the better we survive – especially when that teamwork is coupled with ingenuity. Thus those who seek to inhibit that teamwork by engineering conflict are striking deliberately at the long term survival potential of our global human community.

The environment presents enough challenge to provide us all with an interesting game in our effort to prevail over it – and with tremendous rewards when we do prevail. Man only becomes overwhelmed and suffers a severe dip in his survival potential when he is persuaded by the insane among his numbers to select out sectors of his own species as opponents, thus adding to the challenge provided  by the environment and often rendering the combined challenges overwhelming.

Our tendency to abdicate responsibility for our affairs to complete loons and perverts and then defer to them as if they are somehow trustworthy and wise is perhaps our primary collective aberration. Unfortunately, we tend to wind up with the governance – or mis-governance we are willing to tolerate.

Presently we are afflicted with governments that seriously need to buck up their ideas and stop mucking us about, getting in the road of our survival endeavours and so forth. But they are unlikely to buck up their ideas unless there is a demand from the community that they do so. Which means we as a community need to buck up our own ideas fairly sharpish.

We, as the human community of this planet, can either rise to a position of cause over our environment and become the master of its vagaries or become the effect of it. It is a choice between being the conqueror or the conquered, albeit being the conqueror in this instance does not mean smashing everything up and lording it over the smoking ruins. It is the benign conquest that derives from responsible and reasoned husbandry.

It is the application of reason to a chaotic universe so as to bring tolerable order to it. Thus the human spirit, imbued with confidence and hope as opposed to the self abnegation, low morale and dismay sought by those insane who have turned against their own species, can make a garden of the wilderness.

Husbandry is senior to pillage.

We can do it!

The end of the world is not around the corner

Environmental predictions about the End Times have a long and embarrassing history.
