Climate change ''fear'' is propaganda.


TWO correspondents on Friday October 16 referred on to "a climate warming catastrophe" and claimed the evidence is overwhelming that climate change is happening and is man made.

The phrase "climate change" is a tautology tautology

In logic, a statement that cannot be denied without inconsistency. Thus, “All bachelors are either male or not male” is held to assert, with regard to anything whatsoever that is a bachelor, that it is male or it is not male.
 since change is what defines climate; if it didn't change there would be no climate to talk about.

The facts are that we had a period of warm weather from the mid-1970s as a result of sun spot activity. This activity ceased about 10 years ago and the global temperature is now falling, with colder winters in many parts of the world and less summer ice melt at the poles.

It is significant that proponents of man made global warming global warming, the gradual increase of the temperature of the earth's lower atmosphere as a result of the increase in greenhouse gases since the Industrial Revolution.  have stopped referring to carbon dioxide carbon dioxide, chemical compound, CO2, a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that is about one and one-half times as dense as air under ordinary conditions of temperature and pressure. , which is a gas essential to all life one earth and now use the word "carbon", which has more sinister overtones.

The propaganda of climate change is on a par with the propaganda of the European Union European Union (EU), name given since the ratification (Nov., 1993) of the Treaty of European Union, or Maastricht Treaty, to the

European Community
. As Vaclav Klaus, the president of the Czech Republic Czech Republic, Czech Česká Republika (2005 est. pop. 10,241,000), republic, 29,677 sq mi (78,864 sq km), central Europe. It is bordered by Slovakia on the east, Austria on the south, Germany on the west, and Poland on the north.  and the last leader yet to sign up to the Lisbon Treaty, has said: "Global warming is a false myth and every serious person and scientist says so."
