CHAPTER ELEVEN – I’M FROM THE EPA AND I’M HERE TO HELP
BUREAUCRATIC SCIENCE: When government controls scientific method bad things happen. It is the role of scientists to challenge any hypothesis. They do this by using the scientific method of disproving the hypothesis (falsifiability). Scientists must be skeptics otherwise they are not practicing science. When bureaucratic scientists only work to prove a hypothesis they are not practicing science, they are advancing a political agenda. The modern bureaucratic process of science is now not even trying to search for the truth, it’s instead hunting for an impact factor, for attention, for headlines, and inevitably, for funding.
PSEUDOSCIENCE: Faulty or fraudulent scientific data and analysis used to advance special interests and hidden agendas. This includes beliefs, theories, or practices that have been or are considered scientific, but have no basis in scientific fact. This could mean they were disproved scientifically, can’t be tested or lack evidence to support them.
EMPIRICAL SCIENCE: Scientific method requires that the scientist test a theory based on observed or predicted facts. Skepticism rather than faith is required. A simple definition of science is the ability to predict. If your prediction is wrong your science is wrong. How good is the climate “science” produced by bureaucratic computer models? The answer is, a complete failure. When computer model predictions fail, the theory fails.
SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS: The notion that scientists can’t be bought or intimidated.
ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE: The politically correct term for eco-fascism.
ECO-FASCISM: A totalitarian government that requires individuals to sacrifice their interests to the well-being and glory of the ‘land’. Violation of property rights, crony corporatism, population control, creation of vast wilderness zones, energy control and elimination of fossil fuels are distinguishing features of environmental fascism. The method is one of bureaucratic force and coercion typical of our Environmental Protection Agency and Bureau of Land Management, with propaganda and indoctrination provided by complicit media, academic and political activist institutions.
STONE AGE GREEN LIVING: Thousands of years ago cavemen drank pure water, got plenty of exercise, breathed pollution free air and ate a free range organic diet. They were dead by 35.
GREEN POWER: Three centuries ago, the world ran on green power. Wood was used for heating and cooking; charcoal for smelting and smithing; wind or water power for pumps, mills, and ships; and whale oil for lamps. People and soldiers walked or rode horses, and millions of horses and oxen pulled ploughs, wagons, coaches, and artillery.
HORSE MANURE: The greatest environmental health hazard at the beginning of the 20th century. Airborne pulverized manure, a far worse pollutant than automobile exhaust, carried several deadly pathogens along with the stench.
INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE: One of the most important contributors to environmental quality and health in both city and farm, eliminating most horse manure, reducing farming acreage and also eliminating vast amounts of methane from animal flatulence – a gas with far more greenhouse potency than carbon dioxide.
OIL COMPANY PROFITS: At the gas tank integrated oil companies make about 7 cents per gallon. Meanwhile, the government extracts more than 48 cents, on average, per gallon. That’s right, Uncle Sam takes nearly seven times more out of drivers’ wallets via taxation than “Big Oil.”
CLIMATE CRISIS INDUSTRY: Corporate-government cronyism, a major force for progressive statism. As an economic driver, insurance companies value it at $1.5 trillion including a $27 billion per year consulting industry that handles ‘reputation management’ to link any and all crises to climate change. Climate crisis industry can survive only by relying on the coercive powers of government. Follow the money.
CLIMATE FINANCE: Financing channeled by national, regional and international entities for climate change mitigation and adaptation projects and programs. $100 billion a year is pledged by developed nations for ‘climate related matters’ at the expense of improved public health, education and economic development. This effectively means telling the world’s worst-off people suffering from fuel poverty, tuberculosis, malaria or malnutrition, that what they really need isn’t medicine, mosquito nets, micronutrients, control of pestilence or affordable energy, but a solar panel.
BIG GREEN or GANG GREEN: Well-funded non-profit environmental organizations partnering with corporations to finance the climate change industry by way of political contributions to the Democratic Party.
CLIMATE STATISM: Excessive power and representation of environmentalists and bureaucrats in our government creating a clear and present danger of energy and economic restrictions imposed in the name of controlling Earth’s perpetually fickle climate. Those restrictions perpetuate poverty, disease and death and make it difficult to respond and adapt to future changes.
