Climate Protection Hypocrites in Voluntary Roles – They Only Save the Climate When Ordered from AboveOnline, you'll find many people who tirelessly flood social media in support of the prevailing narrative. Now that COVID is considered passé and the Ukraine conflict no longer offers virtue-signaling mileage, global warming, climate, and climate change have become their latest obsession. 
They post media reports about record temperatures and weather events attributed to climate change. One month is warmer than the next, every year hotter than the last. Today is warmer than yesterday, and tomorrow will be even warmer than today. These reports typically refer to very short time periods to underline a sense of drama. We often read that it was the hottest year, month, or day since the beginning of weather records. But what about before that? How warm was it during the Roman Climate Optimum, the Medieval Warm Period, or when the Sahara turned into a desert? That was quite a while ago—and it must have been hot back then, without any human interference, without industrialization. So what caused it back then? It couldn't have been human-generated CO2. I suspect it was solar activity. But that's just my personal, unscientific assumption—or "conspiracy talk," as some would call it. Is it possible that the climate is in a state of constant change and that humanity doesn’t have as much influence as we're told day after day? To the die-hard defenders of the narrative, that doesn’t matter. If the propaganda departments declare that humans are to blame, then so be it. Period! End of story! And that position is defended to the hilt. Anyone who says otherwise is stupid, a climate or science denier, an enemy to be fought. I’m such an enemy—meaning, someone who questions things, who looks at what one side says, what the other side says, or even what the same people say at different times. Just so I can form my own opinion. And occasionally, I ask questions directly. Recently, a report surfaced saying the targeted 1.5°C warming limit has already been exceeded. On tagesschau.de, it was even a breaking news item. As early as July 21, 2021, mdr.de reported that the 1.5°C threshold had already been reached. Okay, back then it was COVID time, so climate wasn’t a priority. Now the Burgenland district has also launched a heat protection information page. So I asked these volunteer defenders of the narrative what consequences they draw from the fact that this important milestone has already been exceeded. The answers varied. Some claimed to be vegan and were planning to buy an electric car. On the other hand, there were also narrative followers who wouldn’t give up their vacation flights. Some reacted sulky, defiant, or annoyed and made it clear they wouldn’t change a thing. One answer was that it’s up to the politicians—and if no rules come from above, they won’t do anything on their own initiative. But since the climate targets haven’t been met, I asked again what additional personal efforts the “voluntary workers of the propaganda departments” are making to counteract global warming. After all, they seem terrified of all the dreadful things supposedly on the horizon—the things the narrative-defenders themselves try to stir fear about. The things “science” predicts. The same “science” that claimed specific actions would help reach the climate goals. The exact same “science” that now appears to have been wrong. The “science” that in 1974 predicted a coming ice age. My question to the believers in the narrative that climate change is man-made went unanswered. Apparently, they’re not willing to make any additional efforts on their own to combat global warming. Without laws, without orders from above, without government-imposed restrictions, they do nothing themselves. But if they’re really that afraid of climate change, why don’t these narrative supporters take action and voluntarily restrict themselves, just so they can say later: “We did everything we could!” Somehow, it all reeks of hypocrisy. Being the "bad guy" I sometimes am, I noted some time ago—when these same COVID-disciples seamlessly morphed into climate-disciples—that there’s no vaccine for climate change. And if you really believe in man-made climate change, then you have to do more than just wear a mask, keep your distance, go to the vaccination center, or stay home. The only true consequence would be an immediate reduction of your own CO2 emissions, or carbon footprint, to zero. But the self-declared climate protectors don’t seem too keen on that. One even said the personal impact on the climate is far too small. In that case, maybe stop clogging the internet with temperature record news, right? How great is the danger of death by heat in our region?In general, it’s up to each person to decide how much fear they want to live in. Personally, I consider the risk of dying from heat in our region to be extremely low. At least that’s what I gather from doing a quick online search. There’s a Wikipedia page with a list of cities sorted by average annual temperature. Topping the list is Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, with an average annual temperature of 30°C. The peak temperatures there must be significantly higher. Other top entries include vacation hotspots like Dubai and Singapore at 27°C. People spend serious money to fly—with CO2-spewing planes—to these places, where death by heat should be imminent. Totally irrational, right?! Khartoum has over 2.6 million residents. I don’t know about others, but it seems to me that human life is entirely possible there. As it is in many other cities on that list. Leipzig, the nearest major city to us, has an average annual temperature of 8.4°C. Are we in danger here in our region, in Germany?The volunteer narrative champions would probably answer that with a loud and clear yes. After all, German Health Minister Lauterbach recently presented a new heat protection plan. He surely didn’t do that for no reason, right? Personally, I’d say hospitals and care homes should simply be equipped with air conditioning. That way, rooms stay cool and pleasant. Probably almost every apartment in Malaysia has air conditioning. But that would be far too easy, right? I’m probably being too pragmatic again. That would mean elderly people in hospitals and care facilities are completely out of danger. Do we want that? Can we want that? Would our government want that? Then there’d be no more fear left to spread. Surely, that can’t be the goal, right? The word “air conditioning” doesn’t even appear in Lauterbach’s heat protection explanations. Instead, every facility is supposed to appoint someone responsible for heat protection and create a heat protection plan. That’s supposed to save us all. If it gets too warm, just go to the person in charge of heat protection and you'll cool right off. It’s that easy. ;-) Author: AI-Translation - Michael Thurm | vor dem 01.07.2024 |
