The weather is not your fault. The climate (weather over time) isn’t either. Yes, the climate is changing. It is changing because it has never not changed. But, no, the “pollutant” CO₂, anthropogenic or otherwise, is not driving this change. The only thing CO₂ is driving is plant growth. The information you are being fed is distorted. The causes for climate change are natural. They are natural variabilities, cycles we do not yet fully understand.
How do we know this? We know this because of the historical records our ancestors have left us. We know this because of the physical evidence Nature has left us from the vast, pre-industrial past. We know this because of the changes in Earth's movements through space. What we are experiencing has all happened before, only it was much more drastic. This is why we don’t need to worry about slowing down or stopping something we have been conditioned to fret about. These changes can’t be stopped and we can’t “save the planet” because the planet doesn’t need saving. We only need to see how we can best adapt to these changes, something humankind has already been doing for countless generations.
But how could this be, you ask? How could the the world have reached a “consensus” that CO₂ is an existential threat when it isn’t? Because “consensus” is a political, not a scientific term and those who benefit from this imaginary doomsday threat have also control public opinion. Certain professions, institutions and industries benefit either directly or indirectly from the CO₂ panic plot and actively manipulate what we see, read and hear.
They do this by exploiting three well-known human weaknesses:
The first one is fear. Fear is easily planted in the minds of the uninformed. Unfortunately, most of us are highly uninformed. Worse, if no real danger is present, the human mind will proactively seek out things to fear until it finds one (thanks, evolutionary process). We are highly receptive to potential danger and apocalyptic climate hysteria satisfies this psychological predisposition.
Our second weakness is our need to conform. Being firmly rooted in strict social hierarchies, humans have a primal need to belong. This need is so great that we would rather defy what our own senses tell us than be banned as a social outcast.
Weakness number three is our anthropocentrism. Humans innately feel they are the center of the universe. They also sense they can somehow control Nature. Neither being true, this odd mindset only leads to hubris, narcissism and harmful decision-making. We lack humility, in other words.
But humility is a good thing. And this book is an exercise in humility. It is a modest attempt to confront today’s presumptuous CO₂ Climate Crisis “consensus” with uncommon common sense. It is a compilation of well-documented facts and unconventional observations that question today’s “climate science” status quo. It will help reveal how a lack of critical thinking, extreme bias, heavy-handed fear mongering, mass indoctrination methods and quasi-religious fervor have trapped us in a straitjacket of Orwellian groupthink.
We need to remind ourselves that only the individual can think. No one can force you to succumb to mass delusion if you choose not to. People who succumb to apocalyptic climate fear are the only ones in danger because popular hysteria is the plague of our age, not CO₂. Defend yourself by changing the way you think. May the skepticism be with you.
