What is the fastest way to stop global warming? Easy, Schedule a meeting in one of those places reportedly having record heat, only to encounter a massive snowstorm. This is the same way to stop a drought in California. Announce that the drought is now permanent and irreversible, only to have it rain constantly over the next winter.
This is why the people who want the rest of us to buy this nonsense scheduled their meeting in Dubai, where it is 85 degrees. They hoped no one would notice that if you really are concerned about global warming, you wouldn’t fly all those carbon emitting jet planes to one of the hottest places on the planet. I mean if it is too hot in International Falls, Minnesota, then places like Dubai must be close to uninhabitable. Of course, if you go to Dubai, you see all these high-rise buildings, with air conditioning, powered by gas generators.
The host of the United Nations’ COP28 climate change summit was Sultan Al-Jaber, CEO of United Arab Emirates state oil company, ADNOC. He said the following in November:
“There is no science out there, or no scenario out there, that says that the phase-out of fossil fuel is what’s going to achieve 1.5C.” He also pointed out that phasing out fossil fuels would “take the world back into caves.”
Naturally the usual group of “scientists” described this as “an extraordinary, revealing, worrying and belligerent exchange.” What they didn’t do, because it does not exist, is provide actual scientific studies supporting their positions. There is a big difference between following the science, and following people who pretend to do scientific research. History has shown us that many prominent scientists were very wrong. However, true scientific studies disclosed often inconvenient truths ignored by those who are seldom right, but in their own opinion, never wrong.
In the meantime, at least some of the people traveling to Dubai to bitch about global warming, were stuck in Munich, Germany. Germany did not get the global warming memo. One would think that the decision to change global warming to climate change would be an important clue. But the game of Clue was never intended for the “clueless.”
Here’s a short quiz. “Suppose you are in an electric car caught in a snowstorm? You ran out of electricity. There are no electric tow trucks, so you must wait for a gas-powered tow truck to take you to the nearest charging station. When you get there the line is three miles long and it takes 42 hours to charge your car. Wouldn’t that be fun?”
In the meantime, your car has no heater. And, by the way, when an electric car loses power, sometimes that automatically locks all the doors. So, it can be a challenge to just get out of the car, assuming you had someplace to go.
There are lot of signs that people aren’t buying this anymore. They certainly aren’t buying electric vehicles. Those are great for people who have other cars, powered by gas. They are great for people more interested in saving money on taxes than in saving money. But for mere mortals, who need their cars to go someplace at a reasonable speed for a reasonable cost, not so much. States like California gave huge tax incentives to install solar. But then they realized that people with solar panels weren’t generating enough income for the state from taxes on electricity. So, they started requiring a minimum fee to stay connected to the power grid you no longer need. The reality is that the desire of a liberal government for people to switch to solar power disappears overnight if it conflicts with the insatiable appetite for increased tax revenues.
Solar power is great, and necessary, in California. You must be rich enough to afford solar panels so you can spend enough money to stop giving PG&E half your paycheck each month. But solar power in Michigan, where the sun seldom shines for six to seven months of the year, is not that great. The University of Michigan built a solar house. Check out this 459 sq ft beauty.

Predictably someone on CNN will explain how that snowstorm in Germany was caused by climate change (global warming). They hope that no one will notice that none of those $20 million ocean front homes owned by rich liberals like Obama are building sea walls. They also aren’t building them in Miami or San Francisco or anywhere else. The Maldives, which are supposed be sinking because of rising sea levels, are building enormous ocean front resorts:

If you vacation there, for about $2,000 a night, you might just encounter renowned climate scientists like Greta Tintin Eleonora Ernman Thunberg, taking a break from her “pro-Hamas” demonstrations. (”Rin Tin Tin anyone?” “wolf, wolf”) They will tell you all about climate change (global warming), before rolling over to apply more sunscreen.
But look around you. More and more people are trusting their lying eyes more than the serial liars attempting to lead the Democratic Party and their supporting staff in the MSM. Just consider this. The biggest argument against Donald Trump is that he told the big lie about the 2020 election. The big lie that the election was riddled with systemic fraud. The problem is that each day there is more and more evidence of systemic fraud. The odor of fraud is so overwhelming that even some Democrats have noticed. Imagine attempting to re-elect someone as pathetic as Joe Biden, only to be confronted by millions of people who think Joe was inflicted on us by systemic fraud directed by the Democratic Party and embraced by the naïve liberal socialists masquerading as journalists in the MSM. Fun to watch, but it is Snow Joke.
