- The Australian Academy of Drama Queens: Science academy flips from 1976 claim of ‘Little Ice Age’ to 2021 claim of ‘abrupt & irreversible’ global warming
Scientists turn political lobbyists:
Will Steffen’s co-authored piece on “climate tipping points”, was headlined, “The growing threat of abrupt and irreversible climate changes must compel political and economic action on emissions.” The Nature paper included political rodomontade like: "In our view, the consideration of tipping points helps to define that we are in a climate emergency and strengthens this year’s chorus of calls for urgent climate action — from schoolchildren to scientists, cities and countries." ...
The ABC interviewer spliced in tape of Hoegh-Guldberg addressing a conference in Saudi Arabia (of all places) and saying, “Let’s now change the world.” ...The Academy – its members are overwhelmingly taxpayer-funded – wants to force Australia’s blue-collars, tradies and non-public servant middle classes into unpalatable and dark-green lifestyle changes. ...
Canadian investigative journalist Donna Laframboise has provided detailed history on Professor Hoegh-Guldberg, under the header, The WWF Activist in Charge at the IPCC (March 30, 2014). "The fact that he has spent his career cashing cheques from Greenpeace and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) was no impediment to him participating in the latest [Fifth] IPCC assessment. The geniuses there decided he wasn’t merely lead-author material, but that he deserved to be placed in charge of a chapter it’s called The Ocean."
- Watch: Morano on Fox and Friends rips efforts to block the sun with geoengineering to stop ‘global warming’
Morano: "This is a redo of the 1970s. Before fossil fuels caused global warming, fossil fuels caused global cooling and the coming ice age in the 1970s! They were worried that our fossil fuel pollution was blocking out the sun creating global dimming and the next ice age and they wanted to put black soot on the artic to melt the ice. They suggested using nuclear energy to melt ice. So they were trying to geoengineer the climate back in the 1970s and here we have come full circle now trying to do it the other way by essentially cooling the planet instead of trying to warm it." ...
They are saying, 'We are being forced to do this risky radical experiment on our planet' and so the implication is if we would only reduce our emissions, 'We need to embrace the Green New Deal. We need to embrace it so we cannot alter and dangerously experiment with our planet.' ...
Some people are terrified to think of Bill Gates as their doctor. But think of Bill Gates controlling Mother Nature. That may be scarier."

"The fact that these Academies have become a servant of supranational political organizations such as IPCC shows how serious the crisis in climate science really is."
- Epidemiologist Knut Wittkowski slams COVID lockdowns, social distancing, dismisses 2nd wave fears – Rips ‘science’ funded to support government policy
Update: YouTube censors epidemiologist Knut Wittkowski for opposing lockdown
"Shutting down schools, driving the economy against the wall – there was no reason for it. The only reason that this nonsense now goes on and on, and people are inventing things like this ‘second wave’, which is going to force us to change society and never live again, is that the politicians are afraid of admitting an error."
How did we get this so wrong? Wittkowski: "Governments did not have an open discussion, including economists, biologists and epidemiologists, to hear different voices. In Britain, it was the voice of one person – Neil Ferguson – who has a history of coming up with projections that are a bit odd. The government did not convene a meeting with people who have different ideas, different projections, to discuss his projection. If it had done that, it could have seen where the fundamental flaw was in the so-called models used by Neil Ferguson. His paper was published eventually, in medRxiv. The assumption was that one per cent of all people who became infected would die. There is no justification anywhere for that."
'Science' funded to support government policyWittkowski: "They have the scientists on their side that depend on government funding. One scientist in Germany just got $500million from the government, because he always says what the government wants to hear. Scientists are in a very strange situation. They now depend on government funding, which is a trend that has developed over the past 40 years. Before that, when you were a professor at a university, you had your salary and you had your freedom. Now, the university gives you a desk and access to the library. And then you have to ask for government money and write grant applications. If you are known to criticise the government, what does that do to your chance of getting funded? It creates a huge conflict of interest." - American Meteorological Society ‘has wandered from mission to one of advocacy’ on climate change

It is based on a highly-partisan selection from the scientific literature, presented as though science were based upon the ancient logical fallacy of argument from 'consensus'

COVID-19 Called a Model for the Climate Agenda in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons in article by Marc Morano
In 2018, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared, "Climate change is the greatest health challenge of the 21st century, and threatens all aspects of the society in which we live." Now COVID-19 has top billing as the existential health threat, but the proposed response is the same, writes Marc Morano in the fall issue of issue of the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons.

‘Focus on your breath’: Psychologists group prepares public on how to read UN climate report: ‘IPCC report is the bearer of alarming news for all on Earth…If we are not feeling some level of fear & grief, we are in denial’
"Climate distress is very difficult, if not impossible, to bear alone...The IPCC report is the bearer of alarming news for all on Earth. How can we best hear and respond to this alarm, caring for ourselves and others while mustering motivation and commitment for desperately needed action? The research of climate psychology tells us that rather than suppress or avoid our distress, we need to welcome it as a healthy response to the climate crisis. If we are not feeling some level of fear and grief, we are in denial. Acknowledging the myriad feelings of distress we have in response to climate breakdown is crucial for sustained action in response. Our feelings show us how much we care about our world, our communities, our lives and our loved ones. This caring is the basis for the action and change our world needs from us all right now.
