The political benefit of terrifying children.

Eco-emotional child abuse.

TOM ED

It appears that Greenpeace has done some research and discovered that three quarters of children under the age of 12 suffer from eco-anxiety. High-fives all round then in an office that is probably empty due to them working from home in bed to ‘save’ the planet. You can imagine the delight as employees celebrate, breathing as calmly as possible to reduce their CO₂ emissions, that they have mobilised children in their charade to destroy our standard of living at greater speed than global warming might.

Terrified children can drive global policy with an effectiveness politicians lie awake at night dreaming about. How proud the globalists must be to find their propaganda disseminated so effectively. However, the greatest failure of adulthood is failing to protect childhood. Projecting your hysterical reaction into children after watching the BBC report that global boiling will make kettles redundant by 2050 is not something to be celebrating. As we saw with Covid, that evidently posed children no risk, the failure of adults to cushion children from things they have no need to fear is a seemingly modern phenomenon; negligence in protecting kids now something to celebrate.

Of course, adults lie to children. Father Christmas is real until the kids notice he uses the same wrapping paper as his parents (true story). And parents don’t rush in to tell their offspring that the rent might not be paid this month, they tell them all is OK, while their own hearts beat with anxiety. You’ve seen the war films, with the mother enveloping her child, her hands over its ears, as the bombs fall. The slow reveal of truth is part of growing up, or at least it used to be. Now it’s fair game to scare the children witless in matters they have no control over. And we wonder why anxiety is soaring.

The research from Greenpeace also suggests that 82% of teachers would find lesson plans and reserves to support children with their worries useful. The idea of Greenpeace being responsible for alleviating the anxiety they have caused makes as much sense as putting the Prodigy in charge of fire safety. As with Covid, what teachers might find useful is an actual backbone, with which to counter the ‘settled science’ with the fact that most predictions are based on modelling which is the least reliable scientific methodology, and might actually be complete bollocks. In the meantime please just enjoy your childhood. Teachers frothing at the mouth in anger at manmade CO₂ causing sea levels raising faster than you can climb trees might make them feel important, but it’s rather damaging to impressionable minds. One presumes that the Greenpeace-approved propaganda, sorry, I mean lesson plans, will fail to inform classes that global CO₂ parts in the atmosphere are at a historical low, and that without it all plants, and hence life, on planet earth would die out. Human beings are a temperate species; they thrive in warmth rather than cold.

Lesson plans would greatly benefit from sharing the Royal Society finding that CO₂ rising ahead of planetary temperature cannot be scientifically supported. Instead, it’s the same relentless and unchallenged propaganda that leads to miserable looking pensioners campaigning against the Rosebank and Jackdaw North Sea oil fields. These are people who really should know better, having spent a lifetime witnessing inept politicians screwing up everything they touch, sometimes even their own bacon sandwich. They are currently cheering the dissolution of the UK as a fully functioning country in the name of removing 1% of global emissions of CO₂ that account for 0.04% of the earth’s atmosphere also contributed to by natural sources of atmospheric carbon dioxide, such as ocean outgassing, decomposing vegetation and other biomass, venting volcanoes and natural wildfires

The modern concept of ‘privilege’ is designed to make one guilty for family success, but there’s something palpably misinformed about these blank-looking just stop oil pensioners protesting against cheaper energy for their less well-off neighbours in their oil-based raincoats and looking like they’d prefer to be at home highlighting murder mysteries in the Radio Times. As with the children, it’s clear they have not read peer-reviewed literature challenging the reigning climate change narrative, such as humans having had no detectable impact on hurricanes over the past century. Anyone protesting against oil should be immediately stripped of any oil-based belongings, including their smart phones, medication, anoraks and glasses. At least vegans have the integrity to not wear leather shoes.

The campaigners who brought the case against Rosebank and Jackdaw celebrated “a historic win”, which is an interesting way to describe plunging the UK into even less energy security, depending upon unreliable ‘renewables’ and imported fossil fuel via LNG shipments with varying prices that increases domestic and industrial energy bills. Meanwhile, the US is granting new oil drilling licences and China finds its economy booming off the back of cheap power. Miliband claimed in Westminster last year that his green energy ambitions demonstrate how the UK “is back in the business of climate leadership – resetting at home and reconnecting abroad.” It’s the sort of statement that vaguely captured the pub crowd, but once taken home and dissected reveals itself as meaningless guff. It does however illustrate the sate of his own Net Zero brain.

In 2024 China burnt more than 300m tonnes of extra coal. That is equivalent to an extra 800m tonnes of carbon. This is double the 400m tonnes of CO₂ that Britain has stripped from its energy system at the cost of the highest global energy bills, energy insecurity and the dismantling of its steel, oil and gas production, and major industries that can no longer afford the bills and be profitable, since 1990. Recent articles on China’s increased coal use to fuel their industrial growth can be summarised with: They’re using so much coal that the UK could go ultimate Net Zero by pulling its plug and disappear beneath the waves of the North sea and still have zero impact upon global CO₂ emissions.

What children should really be terrified of is why the UK is relying upon wind technology that was replaced by the industrial steam age due to its unreliability, and is head butting itself into economic unconsciousness – with redundancies and compromised energy security – in the hope that the rest of the world will think it’s a good example to follow.
