A Duck!

The need to bash America will lead the climate change movement to conclude that we are in a period of global cooling and that America is failing to do our part to institute big, expensive government solutions to what the global coolers will say is a dire problem.

As I've mentioned long ago, I feel free to comment on global warming--or whatever the current term of art is--because so many people and countries like to bash America about our failure to sign on to big, expensive government solutions to what the global warmers say is a dire problem. So it is kind of a foreign affairs issue. That, and the warmists really annoy me.

Recall we've had flat global temperatures for the last 15 years, or so, despite Holy scriptures models that say our temperature should have gone up in that time. That's inconvenient.

But maybe we really are heading for a new ice age and it can be argued that mankind is actually holding off the frozen Hell that is coming.

And then we have the fact that fits the new narrative of science that will develop that America is at fault for the problem:

Over the past six years, the United States has reduced its carbon emissions more than any other nation in the world.

Efforts to curb so-called man-made climate change had little or nothing to do with it. Government mandated “green” energy didn’t cause the reductions. Neither did environmentalist pressure. And the U.S. did not go along with the Kyoto Protocol to radically cut CO2 emissions. Instead, the drop came about through market forces and technological advances, according to a report from the International Energy Agency.

You can see the dilemma. America is evil for failing to sign Kyoto or do anything the smart science says we must do. Yet we are achieving what the smart science guys (and gals) say we should achieve. Will results or process matter more?

Oh what will the warmists decide? That America is good for achieving something or that America is evil for failing to sign international agreements to do something big that costs gobs of money?

America looks evil! But she does have a wart. So, logically, she's a witch! America is evil!

Yes indeed, America was turning the planet into a raging inferno. Well, we got better. Thankfully, there will always be people wise in the ways of science.
