"There is no cause

for panic and alarm.

We strongly oppose the harmful

and unrealistic net-zero CO² policy

proposed for 2050..."

 

Legal Insurrection readers may recall that relatively early on in the Covid 'pandemic' cycle, leading infectious disease experts created the Great Barrington Declaration.

The formal declaration stressed that lockdowns were destructive and "focused protection" of vulnerable individuals was the way to properly address the highly infectious, novel virus.

Over 4000 scientists, including a good number of epidemiologists and infectious disease specialists, signed the document.

It turns out these scientists were correct.

The effects of lockdown may now be killing more people than are dying of Covid, official statistics suggest.

 

Figures for excess deaths from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) show that around 1,000 more people than usual are currently dying each week from conditions other than the virus.

 

The Telegraph understands that the Department of Health has ordered an investigation into the figures amid concern that the deaths are linked to delays to and deferment of treatment for conditions such as cancer, diabetes and heart disease.

Perhaps it is time to consider if the World Climate Declaration, which has been signed by 1,200 climate scientists and related professionals, may be something to seriously consider, promote, and act on.

In the document, these scientists affirm that there is "no climate emergency."

The political fiction that humans cause most or all climate change and the claim that the science behind this notion is 'settled', has been dealt a savage blow by the publication of a 'World Climate Declaration (WCD)' signed by over 1,100 scientists and professionals.

 

There is no climate emergency, say the authors, who are drawn from across the world and led by the Norwegian physics Nobel Prize laureate Professor Ivar Giaever.

 

Climate science is said to have degenerated into a discussion based on beliefs, not on sound self-critical science.

 

The scale of the opposition to modern day 'settled' climate science is remarkable, given how difficult it is in academia to raise grants for any climate research that departs from the political orthodoxy.

 

(A full list of the signatories is available here.)

 

Another lead author of the declaration, Professor Richard Lindzen, has called the current climate narrative "absurd", but acknowledged that trillions of dollars and the relentless propaganda from grant-dependent academics and agenda-driven journalists currently says it is not absurd.

Particular ire in the WCD is reserved for climate models.

To believe in the outcome of a climate model is to believe what the model makers have put in.

 

Climate models are now central to today's climate discussion and the scientists see this as a problem.

"We should free ourselves from the naïve belief in immature climate models," says the WCD.

 

"In future, climate research must give significantly more emphasis to empirical science."

The declaration is being promoted by the CLINTEL Group, which plans to give "solicited and unsolicited" advice on climate change and energy transition to governments and companies worldwide.

I am thinking that most of the advice they will give will be unsolicited. Here is hoping that policy makers, teachers, and everyone else listen to the group's many points:

• Natural causes contribute to climate changes.

• Warming has been slower than predicted.

• Climate policy is being based on inadequate models.

• Carbon dioxide is plant food, and the basis for life on Earth.

• Global warming has not increased natural disasters.

Perhaps the last point the CLINTEL Group makes is the most critical: 

Climate policy must respect scientific and economic realities.

 

There is no climate emergency.

 

Therefore, there is no cause for panic and alarm. 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.

 

In a prosperous society men and women are well educated, birthrates are low and people care about their environment.

If "Green New Deal" polices are allowed to continue, they will be even more destructive on this nation and the world than the Covid policies have been.
