Global warming is nothing to be feared
Only an idiot with a death wish for life on Earth would attempt to accelerate our descent into the next ice age

IN TODAY'S crazy world, politicians are wasting billions of taxpayer dollars force-feeding costly, unreliable green energy in the belief this will somehow change Earth's climate.
Even more incredible, they fear global warmth and seem hell-bent on creating global cooling. They should study climate history. It is snow and ice, cold, dry air and carbon dioxide starvation we need to fear, not a warm, moist, fertile, bountiful atmosphere.
Climate change is natural and unstoppable.
Just 20,000 years ago, Earth was in one of its recurring glacial phases. A thick ice sheet smothered Canada, Alaska, Iceland, Greenland, North Asia and Europe as far south as London.
Then, because of changing cycles in Earth's orbit and tilt, reinforced by changing solar cycles, the sun warmed the frozen lands.
Only an idiot with a death wish for life on Earth would attempt to accelerate our descent into the next ice age.
Luckily, their war on warmth is futile, but their war on carbon energy will prove tragically misguided in the cold times ahead.
