‘It is interesting to note that the authority of climate science has come to include moral issues so that these scientists can now assert unequivocally that “climate change is the moral issue of our time”. Presumably, this too is based on modelling, a General Morality Model perhaps. One wonders what values they use for their lying and exaggerating parameters.’ Walter Starck.
Since the Anthropogenic Global Warming Disasterists are rapidly losing scientific traction, it’s very understandable why they’re downshifting. Old saying: The average moralist has less than average intelligence.
It amazes me that we use such fraudsters as Gore, Flannery etc as the moral yardstick.
One seems to spend his time flying to one greenie venue after another all over the world to sprout embecillic AGW nonsense.
The Goracle does likewise in his own plane and owns numerous homes all over the USA and then tells us AGW is a MORAL issue insinuating we should reduce our co2 footprint.
These are the most horrible money hungry hypocritical swines that you could imagine, so why does the media hang on their every word?
Because the MSM needs to sell advertising. Only bad news sells.
