This is useful; we have seen in recent times that the UN has moved from the idea of global warming to “global boiling,” capitalising on the fear produced by heatwaves in the northern hemisphere, such heatwaves not being new by any means.
However, Professor Jim Skea, the newly elected head of the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the key organisation pushing this climate doomsday stuff has said, that a 1.5 C rise in global temperatures relative to the pre-industrialised era did not pose an existential threat to humanity: “Climate change activists consistently warning of a doomsday in the near future are harming efforts to tackle the current situation … If you constantly communicate the message that we are all doomed to extinction, then that paralyses people and prevents them from taking the necessary steps to get a grip on climate change.” This flies in the face of present ideologies. One wonders if he was given the memos before taking up the post, and if he will be put back into line quick smart? Still, a quote we can use to great effect.
