GREEN BUSINESS VIEWS

It has just come out that the Climate Summit is defending against even more phony evidence about global warming.  Even those who agree with the concerns for global warming are getting tired of all the artificial and misleading information.  We now hear that the prediction about the melting away of the Himalayan glacial by 2035 was unreliable information.  Of course, it makes for great drama and photo ops when this was the crisis backdrop for the attendees of the summit.  Now, they are trying to handle the latest bombshell of false evidence.  Environmentalism is in danger of persistent exaggeration and a credibility gap going forward.

This penchant for environmental hype hurts the environmental cause since it has been roundly asserted that the “scientific community” has already laid the foundations for this urgent global meetings.  Time and time again, the information is misleading, incorrect, and purposely contrived to support the claims of global warming.

Of course, we cannot forget the leaked emails out of England that told the story of suppressed information contrary to global warming.  Fewer were told that the climate change models had the reference data tied to models that were not properly protected from manipulation.  Few people understand that the climate change data was anything more than recordation of the actual temperatures.  If scientists tweak the software, the results were more to their liking.  More lies tossed like gum balls to the public.

Like any good Nixon-style cover up of the facts, the conspiracy was worse than facing the truth.  When the emails leaked out, the whole climate change community went into overdrive trying to minimize the truth that was leaking out of their highly protected community.

But, why bother to lie or contrive information to turn a matter of concern into a voracious crisis?  Is it that those who succeed in driving a crisis mentality get more of what they want?  The sad story of Haiti perhaps illustrates my point.  Haiti has been a desperately poor nation for a century.  The world has helped Haiti through humanitarian aid, but never to the extent that it did after the horrible earthquakes that struck this island country.  Crisis raises the priority of the cause and pushes people to take emergency action.  Urgency doesn’t mean that the best solutions are installed.  Haiti will still be a poor nation after the relief efforts unless we think our way through the process of international assistance.

The message to those who make the claims for environmentalism and global warming is “Stop lying to the public even though you think the reason for the lies is noble.”  The truth is what we all want, and there are enough crisis issues around to consume our attention anyway.  With unemployment at true numbers of 17%, we have a crisis.  The national debt is a nightmare that is mostly ignored by a spend-crazed congress.  The flight of jobs from America caused by taxation and regulations is being ignored while taxes on the population are going up.

Good people were disturbed at the private jet-flying elitist who attend the Climate Summit ignored their carbon footprint, made no secret of the opulent luxury of the attendees, and yet had the audacity to lecture the rest of us on our abuses of the resources of the world.  Global warming is going to suffer the ignominious fate of Martha Coakley because people are tired of the lies and elitism of those in charge of the cause.

The truth is coming out, and global warming is obvious.  It is also obvious that far too many wrap themselves in an environmental flag to advance their own private and political agendas.  They enlarge their wealth and power at the expense of the private citizen because they have hijacked the environmental cause at our expense.  The next failure of these big, fat, Green liars will be the Cap and Trade bill.  Why?  Because people are totally fed up with the Barney Franks of the world who still believe that people will buy their bald-face lies and the sold-out news media will not call them on their favorite sport of deception.

The public voted against the lies of Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, and Frank were exposed when an unknown man in a pickup truck truth told the truth.  Shocking the world, the people turned a solid blue state with a Kennedy legacy over to the truth-telling Scott Brown.  Regardless of party implications, the fact was that the truth stood against an army of lies and won.  We need less of the present political grandstanding and a lot more real people who still believe that the truth will set them free.  The environment is not a politician football, and politics is not a reliable friend of the environment.
