Even though its nonsense, most in the west believe it, so not much can be done. I used to research the subject and was skeptical from 2001-2009, but Climategate made me a disbeliever. Satellite are only used since 1979, because some warming started in the 1970's. That said even they show little warming. Most of the world has poor measurement records, eg India, Africa, Siberia etc etc The ocean is 2/3 of the earth and only in the last 20 years have buoys, each one covering an area the size of California been deployed and even then only spend part of the time on the surface. Old news papers show much warming in the 1930's, very cold in the 1700's etc etc. Follow the money, 100's of billions flow into this area each year. Al Gore has made at least $500million of it. Its really a joke, the science is crap. Science is supposed to be skeptical, but say anything critical and you get deplatformed, defunded, and even fired from the University(they dont want to loose their funding. Very sad, China and India are laughing as the west destroys itself.. sad

It has become ideological with "belief" divided across party lines. What can be done is to vote the left wing nut cases out of office at the earliest opportunity and elect leaders who will develop our oil & gas reserves and use the taxes and royalties to help fix our broken health care system and build attainable housing to ensure there are homes for the growing population of welcome immigrants to Canada.

I think their are more believers and they believe its important and even necessary to adopt the policies. Someone who live in their parents basement, seldom works and receives the carbon check believes windmills and solar is cheaper. They believe that those dirty oil companies are using their big $'s to ensure we stick with oil so they can be rich. With the media all in, and at some level it makes sense, the sun and wind is free, why not use it...

When I was about 8, I drew a picture of a walkie talkie with a microphone, a wire and an antenna, when I showed it to my uncle he was kind enough to say you might need a few more parts, people today would believe an airplane with a solar panel on top would work :(

Im not optimistic about anyone being voted out ..but hope Im wrong :)

"If you can persuade people of absurdities you can make them commit atrocities" could be the slogan of the current liberal govt of Canada, the Democratic party in the US, and mainstream western media practically in its entirety. Thanks for a great article.
