Earlier this week, I began writing another piece on the continued effort to convince us that we, and the carbon dioxide we emit, are the cause of global warming and ultimately the weather disasters around the world.
A full page in the Jan. 24, 2016 USA Today devoted to how weather made news world-wide in 2015 was the impetus. I saw it as another liberal snow job to promote the reduction of carbon emissions, which “they” would have us believe causes extremes in weather – hurricanes, cyclones, record heat, floods and drought.
As I began to draft this piece critical of the USA Today scare tactic, an article in the Jan 25, 2016 Wall Street Journal, “The Climate Snow Job,” came to my attention. “The notion that world-wide weather is becoming more extreme is just that,” wrote Patrick J. Michaels, a climatologist and Director of the Center for the Study of Science at the Cato Institute. Click here, to read his interesting column.
I stored this piece in “Drafts” while I concentrated on more topical news – Iran, ISIS, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

This morning, however, I was spurred to return to the subject of climate change and the snow job being foisted upon us. Jerry Votendahl, a letter writer to the editor of The Arizona Republic, penned his opinion of an editorial cartoon by Steve Benson it published in which he belittled deniers of human-caused climate change. Benson used the recent massive snow storm in the east to take a swipe at those who don’t buy the snow job.
Votendahl pointed out, as I have previously, supporters of human-caused carbon dioxide emissions cannot explain the climate change experienced before the combustible engine was invented.
While this post was a week in drafting, I cannot emphasize enough that you not allow yourself to buy into the human-caused global warming myth.
“Climate change is the most consequential, urgent sweeping collection of challenges we face.” – Hillary Clinton
Really, Hillary, Really?
