Net Zero — The Pursuit Of The Impossible

How can one justify a policy that imposes enormous costs, offers no “climate” benefits and depletes the earth’s mineral resources at rates beyond imagining?

Prodded by the United Nations and numerous radical environmentalist organizations, many industrialized countries have declared that their policy goal is to phase out the use of fossil fuels (oil, natural gas and coal) and to replace them with all-electric energy systems powered by renewable energy. Unfortunately, most people in those countries do not understand the magnitude of the physical, economic and social changes that would be entailed in such a transition. Adding to the immensity of this challenge, many governments have declared that it must be achieved in almost all countries by 2050, just over 27 years from now. This is the so-called decarbonization” or net-zero” goal.

Many prominent experts have attempted to analyze from a macro-economic, or top-down perspective the costs of attaining the net-zero objective. Until recently, however, none had carried out a bottom-up analysis that sought…

’60 Minutes’ Makes Fake News About Humans Ruining Earth

““How many times does a ‘prophet’ have to be wrong before he stops being a prophet?” ~ Julian Simon

PA Pundits - International's avatarPA Pundits International

By Tim Graham ~

Chalk this up as 60 Minutes hosting the worst peddler of false knowledge since Dan Rather left the set.

CBS kicked off 2023 by touting “mass extinction” blather by Paul Ehrlich, the guy who’s been peddling radical and misanthropic eco-garbage since his book The Population Bomb in 1968.

That screed began: “The battle to feed all humanity is over. In the 1970’s the world will undergo famines–hundreds of millions of people are going to starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now.”

This may qualify as the drop-dead dumbest announcement of the Sixties and should have disqualified him from the status of Expert by the end of the 1970s. But the left-wing media never tire of him. They can’t get enough of this ecological self-loathing. The human race is always a pestilence on the planet.

Pelley led off the show with Ehrlich…

Circulating Spike Protein Detected in Post–COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Myocarditis

Excerpt of peer-reviewed conclusion: “Free spike antigen detected in blood of adolescents & young adults who developed post-mRNA vaccine myocarditis, advancing insight into potential underlying cause.”

Originally published4 Jan 2023 https://doi.org/10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.061025 Circulation. 2023;0

Abstract

BACKGROUND:

Cases of adolescents and young adults developing myocarditis after vaccination with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)–targeted mRNA vaccines have been reported globally, but the underlying immunoprofiles of these individuals have not been described in detail.

METHODS:

From January 2021 through February 2022, we prospectively collected blood from 16 patients who were hospitalized at Massachusetts General for Children or Boston Children’s Hospital for myocarditis, presenting with chest pain with elevated cardiac troponin T after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. We performed extensive antibody profiling, including tests for SARS-CoV-2–specific humoral responses and assessment for autoantibodies or antibodies against the human-relevant virome, SARS-CoV-2–specific T-cell analysis, and cytokine and SARS-CoV-2 antigen profiling. Results were compared with those from 45 healthy, asymptomatic, age-matched vaccinated control subjects.

RESULTS:

Extensive antibody profiling and T-cell responses in the individuals who developed postvaccine myocarditis were essentially indistinguishable from those of vaccinated control subjects, despite a modest increase in cytokine production. A notable finding was that markedly elevated levels of full-length spike protein (33.9±22.4 pg/mL), unbound by antibodies, were detected in the plasma of individuals with postvaccine myocarditis, whereas no free spike was detected in asymptomatic vaccinated control subjects (unpaired t test; P<0.0001).

CONCLUSIONS:

Immunoprofiling of vaccinated adolescents and young adults revealed that the mRNA vaccine–induced immune responses did not differ between individuals who developed myocarditis and individuals who did not. However, free spike antigen was detected in the blood of adolescents and young adults who developed post-mRNA vaccine myocarditis, advancing insight into its potential underlying cause.

End wokeness

Never forget the war that was waged against the unvaccinated. Never.

@EndWokeness

Here in this short composite video are these liars:

But it was not only Stanford Professor Paul Ehrlich and his wife Anne, it was also John Holdren, President Obama’s chief science advisor, and many others.

Prince Philip, the late consort to the late Queen Elizabeth of England, said more or less in different versions that he would like to be reincarnated as a deadly virus as a form of revenge against human overpopulation. A mis-educated man whose ideology apparently influenced his children and grandchildren who then became nominal leaders of World Economic Forum, World Wildlife Fund, etc.

De-Population Bomb: reblog

The De-Population Bomb on Uncommon Knowledge

In 1970, Stanford professor Paul Ehrlich published a famous book, The Population Bomb, in which he described a disasterous future for humanity: “The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now.” That prediction turned out to be very wrong, and in this interview American Enterprise Institute scholar Nicholas Eberstadt tells how we are in fact heading toward the opposite problem: not enough people. For decades now, many countries have been unable to sustain a #population replacement birth rate, including in Western Europe, South Korea, Japan, and, most ominously, China. The societal and social impacts of this phenomenon are vast. We discuss those with Eberstadt as well as some strategies to avoid them.

Bud’s comment:

Eberstadt’s commentary dovetails perfectly with Klaus Schwab, WEF, UN, the Pope, King Charles, Bill Gates, Al Gore, etc (i.e., the Great Rest cabal) on open borders immigration and de-population except the cabal is pressing aggressive depopulation, whereas Eberstadt, Musk and others think depopulation is dangerous existentially for societies. Unfortunately, Peter’s questions did not probe the WEF de-population open conspiracy, the elephant in the room. Eberstadt’s analysis ignores the intentional, planned, lack of assimilation of some cultures, obviously Islam, into many countries. Perhaps Eberstadt’s book covers this most important existential point; without explaining that crisis, his entire analysis is dubious, a scatter of facts with no answers. For example, large numbers of Muslim immigrants in many countries are not working, instead becoming dependent (or, continuing to depend) on governments, which contradicts his implied thesis that mass migration is a solution to de-population.

Will you lose your civilization to the islamic invasion or to de-population of your civilized society? The former is a certain strategy.

Correlation Analysis: CO2 Lags Temp! (a reblog)

Posted by: chaamjamal on: September 4, 2019

[HOME PAGE OF THIS SITE]

THIS POST IS A CRITICAL REVIEW OF A RESEARCH PAPER THAT SHOWS THAT THE EARTH’S SURFACE TEMPERATURE IS CORRELATED WITH LAGGED CO2 CONCENTRATION OF THE ATMOSPHERE. THE CITATION AND ABSTRACT OF THE PAPER APPEARS BELOW:  

Humlum, Ole, Kjell Stordahl, and Jan-Erik Solheim. “The phase relation between atmospheric carbon dioxide and global temperature.” Global and Planetary Change 100 (2013): 51-69. 

Abstract: Using data series on atmospheric carbon dioxide and global temperatures we investigate the phase relation (leads/lags) between these for the period January 1980 to December 2011. Ice cores show atmospheric CO2 variations to lag behind atmospheric temperature changes on a century to millennium scale, but modern temperature is expected to lag changes in atmospheric CO2, as the atmospheric temperature increase since about 1975 generally is assumed to be caused by the modern increase in CO2. In our analysis we use eight well-known datasets: 1) globally averaged well-mixed marine boundary layer CO2 data, 2) HadCRUT3 surface air temperature data, 3) GISS surface air temperature data, 4) NCDC surface air temperature data, 5) HadSST2 sea surface data, 6) UAH lower troposphere temperature data series, 7) CDIAC data on release of anthropogene CO2, and 8) GWP data on volcanic eruptions. Annual cycles are present in all datasets except 7) and 8), and to remove the influence of these we analyze 12-month averaged data. We find a high degree of co-variation between all data series except 7) and 8), but with changes in CO2 always lagging changes in temperature. The maximum positive correlation between CO2 and temperature is found for CO2 lagging 11–12 months in relation to global sea surface temperature, 9.5–10 months to global surface air temperature, and about 9 months to global lower troposphere temperature. The correlation between changes in ocean temperatures and atmospheric CO2 is high, but do not explain all observed changes. ► Changes in global atmospheric CO2 are lagging 11–12 months behind changes in global sea surface temperature. ► Changes in global atmospheric CO2 are lagging 9.5–10 months behind changes in global air surface temperature. ► Changes in global atmospheric CO2 are lagging about 9 months behind changes in global lower troposphere temperature. ► Changes in ocean temperatures explain a substantial part of the observed changes in atmospheric CO2 since January 1980. ► Changes in atmospheric CO2 are not tracking changes in human emissions.

FIGURE 2: 12-MONTH LAG DETRENDED CORRELATIONSDET-12MONTH

FIGURE 3: 9-MONTH LAG SOURCE DATA CORRELATIONSSOURCE-9MONTHS

FIGURE 4: 9-MONTH LAG DETRENDED CORRELATIONSDETRENDED-9MONTHS

  1. The correlations claimed by the authors of the paper are tested with UAH satellite data for monthly mean lower troposphere temperatures 1979 to 2018 against Mauna Loa monthly mean CO2 data 1977 to 2018. Twenty four regional temperatures are tested. They are labeled numerically in the charts above as 1 to 24. They are, in sequence from 1 to 24, Global, G land, G ocean, Northern Hemisphere, NH land, NH ocean, Southern Hemisphere, SH land, SH ocean, Tropics, T land, T ocean, Northern Extent, NE land, NE ocean, Southern Extent, SE land, SE ocean, North Polar, NP land, NP ocean, South Polar, SP land, SP ocean. Both 12-month and 9-month lags are tested.
  2. Correlation and detrended correlation between temperature and lagged CO2 are computed and the results are summarized in the charts above. Figure 1 and Figure 3 show correlations between the source data at 12-month and 9-month lags. At both lags we find a large range of correlations from negative values to very high correlations of max-ρ=[0.787,0.811] with medians of median-ρ=[0.695,0.658] for 12-month and 9-month lag respectively. These correlations are statistically significant and appear to support the authors claim of a lagged correlation between atmospheric CO2 and surface temperature indicating that temperature rises first and CO2 follows 9-12 months later and that therefore it is not possible for atmospheric CO2 to be the causal agent of the observed warming.
  3. However, as described in related posts, correlations between two time series where both series have long term trends, can be driven by the trends and not by responsiveness at any finite time scale less than the full span of the data [LINK] . Detrended correlation is used to remove the spurious shared trend effect so that responsiveness of atmospheric CO2 to temperature can be tested. These detrended correlations are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4. The charts show near zero detrended correlations of median-ρ=[0.011,0.009] for 12-month and 9-month lag respectively. Virtually none of the source data correlation survives into the detrended series. This result implies that the correlations seen in the source data are spurious and that the relationship they imply is illusory. Their only information content is that both series have a rising trend. No responsiveness at an annual time scale is found.
  4. CONCLUSION: The lagged correlation between surface temperature and atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration reported by these authors is spurious. Therefore the apparent responsiveness of atmospheric CO2 to surface temperature is illusory. In the absence of such responsiveness it cannot be claimed that the data presented show a reverse relationship between temperature and atmospheric carbon dioxide such that temperature drives carbon dioxide and not the other way around.

  1. DETRENDED CORRELATION ANALYSIS OF TIME SERIES DATA: Correlation between  x and y in time series data derive from responsiveness of y to x at the time scale of interest and also from shared long term trends. These two effects can be separated by detrending both time series as explained by Alex Tolley in the video frame of Figure 3. When the trend effect is removed only the responsiveness of y to x remains. This is why detrended correlation is a better measure of responsiveness than source data correlation as explained very well by Alex Tolley in the video. The full video may be viewed on Youtube [LINK] . That spurious correlations can be found in time series data when detrended analysis is not used is demonstrated with examples at the Tyler Vigen Spurious Correlation website [LINK] . Spurious correlations are common in climate science where many critical relationships that support the fundamentals of anthropogenic global warming (AGW) are found to  be based on spurious correlations.

NOT Sci-fi, the following video is a great interview of Celeste Solum (FEMA Employee) by Mike Adams from Brighteon. Be seated. Celeste tells us that the New World Order and Agenda 21 is set to finalize soon. She describes the WEF/UN globalist plan which is now over 250 layers thick. “The ultimate goal is depopulation.”

In the short video below, former Greenpeace President Dr. Patrick Moore of Canada says the elites have a ‘suicide pact’ to reduce the world’s population. Video excerpt below.
