Happy New Year to you all.
Not holding my breath, though.
The portents for the coming year don’t seem too good. Even the government is pessimistic (and they have a lot to be pessimistic about).
With all the evidence, continually publicised, about the failure of the so-called renewables, we still get letters to the press and articles pushing for more windmills and solar panels, and less coal, oil and gas, and a push for Net Zero. WHY? It is so obvious that it won’t work and will cost us a fortune. Apparently, over 200 EV’s have burst into flames, and Porsche, I think it was, have advised owners of their EVs, not to park them close to their homes or in garages, but governments still push them. All the obvious drawbacks are ignored even though many car manufacturers are in deep trouble over the edict to produce only EVs.
It is like continual building of false assumptions on erronious data and false interpreations. People have spent £billions on super computers to try to simulate the Earth’s climate and have built in a mythical greenhouse effect and find, amasingly, that the result is a continuing rise in temperature. You could have done this on a laptop. It is a simple second order control system were a small input produces a rising output, the rate of which is proportional to the size of the input. Any amount of CO2 in the atmosphere would cause the temperature to rise and continue rising, which would mean that, by now, the Earth should be a molten blob drifting in space.
This is obviously not what is happening in the real world. I have explained in www.independentclimate science.co.uk how the so-called greenhouse effect can be disproved with a simple experiment that anyone can do. But politicians don’t want to know.
As the next ice-age creeps up on us, I wonder if that’ll be blamed on fossil fuels.
In spite of all this, try and have a happy New Year.
