… our demise occurs!
Here’s an argument against the validity of climate catastrophe, straight out of the “too good to be true” basket. It goes something like this:
“After several centuries of humanity’s meandering technological development, the odds are remote that, at precisely the time of our demise, we developed computer hardware and models sophisticated enough to predict our imminent demise.”
Computers are now sophisticated enough to model our demise but not so sophisticated that they know more than we do. The likelihood of our demise actually being imminent is vanishingly small because:
- We don’t know how the climate works.
- There’s been no warming since 1995, despite a 20% increase in CO2.
- The atmosphere (since 2001) and the ocean (since 2004) have been cooling.
- Models fail hindcasts, thus inspiring no confidence in their forecasts.
- The IPCC, from whom the government takes its advice, is utterly discredited.
- There’s been no alteration in natural rates of sea-level change.
- We don’t know how the climate works.
But don’t believe me – ask any climate scientist (warmist or sceptic) and they’ll tell you we don’t know how the climate works.
