  1. The failure of all the King’s horses and men to put an end to Covid reminds me of several past and one current long running fiasco. The long running, costly misadventures in Vietnam and Afghanistan wasted blood and treasure, ultimately ended badly for the people we claimed to be protecting. The hyperhysteria about climate change is similar though less dramatic. I urge you to read Bjorn Lomberg’s “False Alarm” in which the Dane uses all of the facts offered by the UN panel on climate change to paint a devastating picture of failure. None of the proposed solutions will work, but there is an intelligent and ultimately lower cost means of living on a planet that’s warmer. I repeat: he accepts all the climate science when it comes to predicting future global temperature, but clearly shows the futility of current plans to lower or reverse carbon emissions.

  2. . . . but clearly shows the futility of current plans to lower or reverse carbon emissions.

    That’s because lowering or reversing atmospheric CO2 is not the goal. The goal is power over the lives of others.
    The parallel beteen the covid pandemic and the global warming scare is that a relatively minor problem is being used as an excuse to transfer wealth and political power from ordinary people to society’s elites.
    At Cop26 a few weeks ago, Obama said:

    “All of us have sacrifices to make. But those of us who live in big, wealthy nations — those of us who helped to precipitate the problem — we have an added burden to make sure we are working with, and helping, and assisting those who are less responsible.”

    Obama lives in a 14,000 square foot multimillion dollar mansion that is three feet above sea level. He flew to Glasgow on a private jet. He will never make any “sacrice” to mitigate global warming.
    Obama knows it is bullshit.
    Act accordingly.

  3. “a relatively minor problem is being used as an excuse to transfer wealth and political power from ordinary people to society’s elites”

    I thought of this while reading about how the “infrastructure” bill will improve internet access in “rural” communities. A local issue gets it’s money sifted through federal and state graft machines, and we will get to wonder why this didn’t get “solved” when we blew all this money.
