The Climate Change Cult: Same Old Scam, New Era Packaging

We are not going to delve into the repetitive details. In my view, people are being deceived, and here's why I believe this is happening. Are you being deceived?

In the grand theater of human folly, few performances have had such longevity as the climate change hysteria. They continue to exploit this issue, using it to frighten the public into giving up their hard-earned money and valued freedoms. The most unfortunate part? It's still effective. Despite a century of doomsday predictions that never materialized—from Al Gore's melting ice caps to endless forecasts of looming disaster—people continue to submit, with open wallets and surrendered rights.

Let’s clarify something: no one I know is denying that climate changes. It has been evolving since the beginning of time, well before humans started fires or drove Model Ts. If you label skeptics as "deniers," it might be because you're influenced by echo chambers shaping your beliefs. Consider my current location on the shores of Lake Michigan. This entire region was once covered by an ice sheet about a mile thick. When it receded, it formed the Great Lakes, long before humans ever burned fossil fuels. If human activity is responsible for climate change, then what caused all that ice to melt before humans existed?

The real story is that these changes are perpetual, uncontrollable, and driven by the ultimate boss: the Sun. It's our planet's sole energy source, dictating the rhythms of warmth and cold. Human activity? Sure, we can exacerbate things—pollute rivers, deforest lands—but we're not the cosmic villains causing apocalyptic shifts. Short of a nuclear holocaust (and even then, Earth would rebound in a few million years, erasing our footprints), we're incapable of "destroying the planet."

That whole "save the planet" mantra? Utter nonsense. Earth isn't some nurturing "Mother Nature" we need to rescue; it's a colossal rock hurtling through space at breakneck speeds, teeming with life like barnacles on a ship. We're just one species in this cosmic terrarium, and if we vanish tomorrow, the planet will thrive without us. We are just not that important or necessary people. The Earth will take care of itself just as it did before we got here. Asteroids, solar flares, or volcanic eruptions could end it all in an instant, but we're obsessing over hypotheticals millennia away. Why?

The Timeless Tactic: Fear as a Tool of Control

Paralleling these natural cycles has been humanity's oldest grift: manipulators exploiting fear to seize power. Enter the classic PRS playbook—Problem, Reaction, Solution. Create a phantom menace, stir panic, then swoop in with "solutions" that enrich the elite while shackling the rest. Back in ancient times, as portrayed in the media, it was sacrificing children to appease volcano/weather gods for a bountiful harvest or no eruptions. Today, it's guilting you into funding trillion-dollar schemes to "fight" climate change—a force no government can tame, no matter the budget.

Think about it: Nearly a hundred years of pearl-clutching prophecies from Gore and his ilk, none of which materialized. Ice-free Arctic summers? Nope. Vanishing Antarctic ice? Actually, there's more ice there now than when Gore cashed in on his scare tactics. What did dematerialize? Billions from your pockets, funneled into green initiatives, carbon taxes, and regulatory overreach that chip away at freedoms. It's a cult, plain and simple. Predictions flop, excuses flow, and the faithful keep the faith, too invested to admit they've been duped.

The scam's anatomy is crystal clear: Problem—the invisible specter of climate doom; Reaction—demonize fossil fuels, rake in donations; Solution—more government control, less liberty for you. All "for your safety," of course. Sound familiar? It's the same rationale tyrants have used throughout history, right before the purges began. Just like that, Mayan priest carving out a child's heart had zero impact on the weather or volcanic eruptions, your tax dollars won't bend the climate to bureaucratic will. But the results? Power consolidated, masses impoverished.

Real Threats vs. Phantom Fears

Why does this ruse persist? Because it distracts from genuine, imminent dangers we should be addressing. We're fretting over models—guesses, really, where inputs dictate outputs—predicting woes ten thousand years out, while ignoring threats that could strike tomorrow. Take the Canary Islands: A massive landslide looming on La Palma could trigger a mega-tsunami, swamping the U.S. East Coast, obliterating cities miles inland. We can see it, measure it—it's tangible.

Or Yellowstone: One supervolcanic eruption, and millions perish instantly, with a nuclear winter potentially triggering mass extinctions. Asteroids? A big one hits, game over. Coronal Mass Ejections from the Sun? A strong burp could strip our atmosphere or fry global grids, hurling us back to the Stone Age. These aren't "maybes"; they're inevitabilities on geologic timescales. Yet, we can't control them any more than the climate. All we can do is adapt—not pour fortunes into futile "prevention."

Certainly, there's also the Moon to consider. It's gradually distancing itself from Earth at a rate of approximately an inch and a half each year. This shift will affect our tides and atmosphere, consequently influencing our climate and the physical forces in play. Ultimately, the Moon will drift away into space, potentially becoming an asteroid or something similar, and Earth will undergo significant changes when that happens. If humans are still around when that starts to be a problem, they are going to have one choice, the same choice we have now, to adapt or perish.

If you're fully aware of a hypothetical scenario thousands of years in the future but unaware of immediate tangible threats, it might be worth reevaluating that perspective because something seems amiss. Consider what other things you might not know, and think about whether that might be the intention—ignorance, in other words. By continuously focusing on one distraction, you might miss everything else. Just saying.

And speaking of man-made messes, the real culprit isn't CO2 in this writer's opinion—it's geoengineering. Those chemtrails crisscrossing the skies? Officials admit to spraying aerosols for "solar management," but deny the harm. Delusion at its finest: It's like staring down a loaded gun, hearing "I'm going to shoot," and insisting it's a joke. These experiments are backfiring catastrophically, claiming lives while we're blamed for "fossil fuel sins." Classic misdirection.

Let's Debunk the Boogeyman: Greenhouse Gases

When we talk about greenhouse gases, it is essential to first understand the composition of our atmosphere. Water vapor, a natural component of the air we breathe, is by far the most abundant greenhouse gas. It plays a crucial role in regulating the Earth's temperature through the greenhouse effect. In fact, water vapor constitutes about 95% of the greenhouse gases present in the atmosphere, vastly overshadowing carbon dioxide (CO2), which accounts for a mere 0.04% of the atmospheric composition. This stark difference highlights the need to reassess the narrative surrounding greenhouse gases and their impact on climate change.

The Role of CO2 in Our Ecosystem

Carbon dioxide is often labeled as a villain in discussions about climate change, but this characterization overlooks its fundamental importance to life on Earth. CO2 is not just a byproduct of human activity; it is, in fact, a vital nutrient for plants. Through the process of photosynthesis, plants absorb CO2 from the atmosphere and convert it into oxygen and glucose. This process serves as the foundation of our food chain, supporting not only plant life but also the animals that depend on plants for sustenance.

Rising CO2 levels can promote plant growth, resulting in stronger crops and higher agricultural yields. For instance, greenhouses frequently use CO2 pumps to increase internal levels specifically to enhance plant growth and health. Why would they intentionally pump a "pollutant" into their cash crops? Doesn't really make much sense, does it? This effect is especially important as the global population grows, leading to a greater demand for food. By creating an environment with elevated CO2 levels, we can potentially boost crop productivity, which is vital for feeding billions of people worldwide.

The Consequences of Lowering CO2 Levels

The demonization of carbon dioxide often leads to misguided policies aimed at reducing its concentration in the atmosphere. However, such measures could have dire consequences. Lowering CO2 levels would not only hinder plant growth but could also lead to a cascade of negative effects throughout the ecosystem. As plants struggle to survive and produce food, herbivores that rely on these plants for nourishment would also face challenges. This, in turn, would impact carnivores that depend on herbivores, creating a ripple effect that could threaten entire food webs.

In a world where food production diminishes due to reduced CO2, the specter of famine looms large. As agricultural output declines, human populations could face severe food shortages, leading to malnutrition and starvation. It raises a critical question: Are we inadvertently steering ourselves toward a future where depopulation becomes a grim reality, all under the guise of environmental protection and "saving the Earth"?

Rethinking Our Approach to Climate Change

Instead of focusing solely on reducing CO2 emissions, which is erroneous from the start, it is vital to adopt a more balanced and nuanced approach to environmental stewardship. This includes recognizing the role of all greenhouse gases, particularly water vapor, and understanding their interactions within the climate system. We must also embrace innovative agricultural practices that maximize the benefits of CO2 while minimizing other environmental impacts.

The discussion surrounding greenhouse gases should focus on understanding and collaboration rather than fear and blame. By encouraging a thorough dialogue about the complexities of our atmosphere and the vital role of CO2, we can strive for sustainable solutions that benefit both our planet and its inhabitants. It's essential to move past simplistic narratives and engage in a more informed and constructive conversation about the future of our environment and the delicate balance of life it sustains. Unfortunately, this isn't happening because we're too caught up in debates about the existence of climate change, repetitive arguments, and echo chambers that overshadow practical common sense.

Breaking Free from the Trap

I have clearly stated in my other writings that I am not opposed to wind, solar, or any form of alternative energy. My concern lies with the approach these politicians are taking. This transition should occur over generations, not just decades. For me, the critical question remains whether these measures are even necessary right now. In my opinion, the answer is a definite NO. We are not at risk of running out of reliable energy soon, and we have alternatives like nuclear and Carbon Capture, which convert natural gas into zero-emission energy without the need to spend trillions on rebuilding our energy infrastructure. So why the intense push based solely on speculation? Better yet. Why are you not asking this question yourself?

Humans aren't climate controllers; we're passengers on a volatile ride. The Sun calls the shots, and our meddling—like geoengineering—only amplifies chaos. We're still in an interglacial warm spell from the last Ice Age, with Earth warming, melting, and refreezing as expected. Storms intensify, temperatures swing—it's all interconnected in our closed ecosystem.

The manipulation? Scientists in lab coats, funded to find "results" that suit agendas, feeding narratives to divide and conquer. Blame fossil fuels to mask elite failures. And now, the "green energy" push: It's the fossil fuel barons' revenge, mirroring how they torpedoed nuclear after Three Mile Island's media-fueled panic. Nuclear and fossil now ally against windmills and solar farms that receive subsidies while failing to deliver. It's all a game, folks—don't play.

Time to wake up: Turn back from the cult. Reclaim your wealth, freedoms, and common sense. Face real threats with adaptation, not fear-mongering. The planet's fine; it's us who need saving—from the scammers.

Something to think about, until next time. ~Ghost
