Professor John Schellnhuber, Climate Adviser to the Pope dials up the alarm, not to 11, but to TWELVE. “Planet could warm by 12 degrees, I have all the evidence” “Scientists have to take to the streets to counter denial” “If we want to hold the 1.5 degrees [Celsius; 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit]  line, which is the […]

Budget squeeze time for US climate projects

The great US climate squeeze is getting under way, with political wrangling likely not far behind, as the alleged man-made climate scare gets downgraded.

President Trump’s first budget proposal includes a 31-percent cut to the Environmental Protection Agency as part of an administration effort to slash federal climate change funding. The budget blueprint, released on Thursday, provides $5.7 billion for the EPA, down from $8.3 billion.

The budget “discontinues” $100 million in funding for several climate change programs within the agency, including enforcement for a major Obama-era climate regulation, climate change research and international climate change support.

Trump’s budget slashes funding for industrial waste clean-up through the Superfund program. It also passes along deep cuts to research and development work, the EPA’s Enforcement and Compliance Office and state grant programs, and it eliminates funding for region-specific environmental work for areas like the Great Lakes and the Chesapeake Bay.

In all, the budget “eliminates more than 50 EPA programs, saving an additional $347 million” over current levels, and would end 3,200 of the agency’s 15,000 jobs. Trump’s budget is only a proposal, and Congress is tasked with writing the actual appropriations bills that fund the government.

Lawmakers are likely to take issue with several of his EPA plans and increase spending for the agency above what Trump wants. The Superfund program, for instance, is popular with members, and region-specific cuts will draw objections for members who represent those areas.

The EPA has absorbed a 20-percent cut since 2010, and some key Republican appropriators — even those who oppose the agency’s climate change work — have already raised concerns about the size and breadth of Trump’s proposal.

The administration says the budget “reflects the success of environmental protection efforts, a focus on core legal requirements, the important role of the states in implementing the nation’s environmental laws, and the president’s priority to ease the burden of unnecessary federal regulations that impose significant costs for workers and consumers without justifiable environmental benefits.”

In all, the EPA was one of the federal departments hardest hit by Trump’s budget. But he takes aim at climate change and energy research in other parts of his government.The proposal would eliminate several State Department climate programs, including funding for the Global Climate Change Initiative and American contributions to international climate change accounts.

Stop Climate Cult Establishment!

The so-called “climate science” is based on the output of extremely complex computer climate models that cannot be understood by humans.  Even worse, these models are incorrect, because they contradict well-known principles of mathematics and the information theory.  Other important points:

• Computers are built around silicon chips.
• Silicon (in the form of silicon oxides) is the main component of ordinary stones and rocks.
• The output from the silicon chips is interpreted by so-called “climate scientists” as the prophecy of future climate changes, decades, hundreds, and thousands of years into the future.  The prophesies that were made 20-30 years ago are already proved to be false.
• The so-called “climate scientists” form a closed cast that claims that nobody else can understand their “science,” including famous physicists and mathematicians.  Also, very few of these “climate scientists” have scientific achievements outside of the “climate science” or related environmentalist frauds.  These “climate scientists” and their political/financial sponsors have also persecuted dissenters, and have used the power of governments in this persecution.
• Thus, these “climate scientists” are not scientists and even not ordinary frauds, but the priests or shamans of the climate cult.

The so-called “climate science” is a cult, and has been called a cult by distinguished scientists many times.  This is not a metaphor.  The climate cult is a modern form of the most primitive idolatry, like that practiced thousands of years ago.  Ignorant savages were making stone idols, worshiping them, and making sacrifices.  The climate cult has resurrected this practice, but on the huge scale.  So far, billions of dollars have been spent on the sacrifices to climate cult idols.  Hundreds of billions have been spent to convince or force others to join this cult.

But financial sacrifices are not enough anymore.  The climate cult demands and attempts human sacrifice.  The effort to shut down U.S. energy industries is just one attempt to sacrifice humans on a massive scale.

Obama administration followed the climate cult and attempted to establish it as the state religion.  Trump administration must stop that:

• Immediately remove all materials promoting climate cult from the government websites and other publications.
• Stop supporting climate cult in the government agencies and quasi-governmental institutions.
• Stop funding organization that promote or practice the climate cult, including under the guise of “climate science” or “climate communication.”
• Take all necessary steps against illegal activities of the climate cult within and outside of the government.
