    How Climate Scenarios Lost Touch With Reality
    Scientists often work with assumptions, and when those assumptions are incorrect, everything built upon them can be flawed. In this story they it appears that the emission models were wrong from the start. It is disheartening and concerning to see the media and politicians treat scientific models as infallible. They rarely make efforts to refine or update these models, yet they continue to scream that the sky is falling. The COVID pandemic demonstrated what can happen when scientific projections used to build models are wrong, and the world is still paying for the consequences of those intentional mistakes. To rebuild trust in science, it is essential for experts to transparently explain how models are developed, acknowledge errors, and quickly update them as new information becomes available. Honesty and transparency are the keys to creating a better and more sustainable future. The environment is important, politics, and university grant money need to be removed from all scientific "models".
    In the true scientific method, you publish your theory and it is interrogated and even criticised through peer review. On climate change, and other subjects, an echo chamber was created around the 'humans causing climate change, i.e. warming, and mainly through carbon'. That was a corruption of the scientific method. Also, the public (and all politicians) were manipulated with scaremongering and brainwashing, and any criticism of the climate change model was suppressed by mainstream media and by funding being witheld. Perhaps we should learn the lesson that people cannot be trusted, return to the true scientific method, and put guardrails around it.

    What has emerged from the climate change mess is that the public will find the evidence that is being suppressed and will educate themselves. The danger is that popularity should not govern whose voice gets heard. There are a lot of people with loud voices and a sizable following who broadcast sensationalism without regard for accuracy. They are popular, perhaps, because people do not trust the scientific community ... with good reason.

    Climate does change on this planet, drastically. Are we building resilient communities that can adapt to warming and cooling? Are we being more careful with the resources we have? Why are we spending so many resources on killing and destruction and creating a billionaire class instead of building better and doing better, sustainably, so that we can adapt to changing climate?

    I have a rule-of-thumb refutation of the 'Climate Religion' - for what this is worth, I know opinions are rather like anuses, we all have one & so forth, blah blah. However it occurs to me that there is a primary logical/intellectual error at work here that characterizes ALL of the Climate arguments which if wielded deftly, if presented in the right context completely destroys this faction's ongoing claims.
    My refutation goes thus:
    1. Is our atmosphere, being a collection of different gasses, all combined to form our biological medium, which happens to allow life to proliferate on this planet, is this in fact designed for humanity's convenience?
    This might appear to be a harmless question, at first reading, but this occurred to me a few years back, I was considering just what the Net Zero 'scientists' were proposing, what the EU climate policies were being based upon.
    Just like the Biblical absolutists, who believe absolutely in the literal words of the Bible, these climate religion people come from this point, that our atmosphere is behaving badly because we have disturbed the 'golden balance', the sacred natural order.
    However, if we embrace the true tenets of the Scientific Method, the logic of our natural philosophy, then our atmosphere is a natural collection of elements, operating in accordance with natural forces, it does not 'obey' any particular law, apart from the wild, natural forces which act upon it, right?
    The Sun drives all of these processes, the Sun is the primary source of ALL energy in our 'Solar System' - our atmosphere observes the rule of the Sun.
    Any talk of 'imbalance' implies there is an ideal balance to begin with: which is demonstratable to be false.
    Ask your next Net Zero acolyte if they believe our atmosphere to be gifted/designed for humanity: this is the essential flaw, & anti-Science position of this religion.
    The vast, incredibly vast in human terms, cycles of climate are not poised to allow human society to flourish, we have glacial, & Inter-glacial periods, the Net Zero, & overall Climate faction is in fact a religion, it has its origins among the ecological activists (I am personally sympathetic with much of this, but that is a different story) - these people are entitled to believe what they wish, but they are NOT entitled to present their ideas as "Science", nor to dictate political/social policy to the rest of us, and that is the entire point.

    It might be the case that you're accessing Avalon via multiple tabs
    That is correct. I keep multiple tabs open because I find it time-consuming to find the page that I want or a post that I made previously. I think you hit the nail on the head.
