“One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with the environmental policy anymore, with problems such as deforestation or the ozone hole,” said Edenhofer, who co-chaired the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change working group on Mitigation of Climate Change from 2008 to 2015.

“We redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy,” said Edenhofer.

Another Climate Alarmist Admits Real Motive Behind Warming Scare | Stock News & Stock Market Analysis - IBD

I'd have said the jig is up but, really, it's been up for a long time and many of us have known it.
Only the deadenders here and those who still use climate change for the reason described above still cling to the scam and they're not about to give up the power or the dream.
 
Yes its all one big conspiracy and every major scientific society on earth as well as the vast, vast majority of the world's climate scientists are all in on it..... Why they have even convinced the world's alpine glaciers to rapidly melt as well just to fool everyone. ;)

Its just like that big "evolution" conspiracy that all biologists are in on in their attempts to discredit religion.
 
Not this **** again... :doh

Climate change does exist and always has existed. It is monumentally stupid for anyone to suggest we can plateau the climate to some point indefinitely.

What we should be talking about are the "other" motivations for climate policy.

I am not convinced it is all one or the other, or even has to be. Policy is always about control, it makes sense that politicians no matter where from would look at opportunity for climate policy to also be about wealth redistribution purposes. All the climate summits have proved this conclusively.

But even more than that factor of whom picks up the tab is also the ability though policy to apply fault and also who gets a pass. Usually in terms of where a given nation is in the process of an industrial revolution and what their current economic model is.

The arguments for whom ends up paying have become what you think they would be, disputes between bickering politicians all with their own self serving interests not always about climate.

Scam? Perhaps a bit much, but environmental sciences and the subject of climate change is yet another subject lost to political objectives. We are no longer just talking about conditions for climate direction, that was discarded almost the moment politicians knew it could be used for other control reasons.

We screwed this up, almost as early as when the debate was in its infancy.

By "vast majority of the worlds' climate scientists", you mean....

Meh. More like Eugenics. Which was also widely accepted Science, preached by all those who Knew Better.

Your so wrong, buddy.

Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet: Consensus

"Multiple studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals*show that 97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree: Climate-warming trends over the past century are very likely due to human activities. In addition, most of the leading scientific organizations worldwide have issued public statements endorsing this position. The following is a partial list of these organizations, along with links to their published statements and a selection of related resources."
 
Climate Change is not a sham.

I don't think the assertion is that climate change is a sham. You might want to re-read the assertion in the OP. The assertion is that climate change - to whatever degree it's occurring - is used for other ends not associated with science.

But even then, that's still not true.
 
Maybe you can tell me exactly how wealth transfer will alter climate, then.
Until you can prove that scientists are using climate change and global warming research to increase their own personal wealth, maybe.

That's not the issue here. The issue is an agency stating that their purpose is to use climate change to underpin an agenda for wealth redistribution on a global scale.

And I still don't believe that.

I always love this retort.

The fact is that while climate change is real, the social engineers who want to use that reality to funnel wealth from first world nations to third world nations as well as crooks and thieves is also a reality. There's virtually nothing about the "solutions" proposed by climate change politicians that has any positive effect on climate or remediation of the problems. All it does is feed government coffers to confer benefits upon their chosen winners and losers.

The United Nations is on record as supporting proposals such as carbon taxation/trading as a means of wealth redistribution and they are also on record as hoping such a process will lead to the United Nations being in a position of world governance through such wealth control.

Those concerned with the climate are badly served by those in political power who are bastardizing the issue for political/financial gain with no interest in climate remediation.

And where's your evidence for these claims?

You realized you just cited an article and graphic written by a guy who makes his living as a lobbyist for Oil and Gas companies, right?

Just want to point out how bad your argument is when the first thing you cite is from a paid spokesman.
 
And where's your evidence for these claims?

I have no interest in rehashing this again, in this thread - there are other threads here and lots of resources on the internet that can help you out, if you're truly interested in researching and learning about the issue.

This is a different way of saying the same thing - you are conflating impact with primary impact or overwhelming impact, and ignoring confidence levels. Furthermore, "actively publishing" is a way to filter out climate scientists who are less certain, or allow for non-anthropogenic effects.

:shrug: the data is the data. Are those who receive grants to study climate change falsifying their results because they get paid by people who expect them to show anthropogenic global warming?

From the article and links within are these quotes:

"For those who want to believe that maybe Edenhofer just misspoke and doesn’t really mean that, consider that a little more than five years ago he also said that “the next world climate summit in Cancun is actually an economy summit during which the distribution of the world’s resources will be negotiated.”

"At a news conference last week in Brussels, Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of U.N.’s Framework Convention on Climate Change, admitted that the goal of environmental activists is not to save the world from ecological calamity but to destroy capitalism.
“This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the Industrial Revolution,” she said."

They are attempting to do exactly what they claim.

No, it is not conflating the issue when it is said, correctly, that 97% of actively publishing climatologists support AGW. That is indeed a consensus and an overwhelming consensus.

The question of how certain those 97% are in regards to climate change being attributed to humans or what percentage of that 97% attributes the majority of the warming to humans are two separate issues. You are the one who is attempting to read more into the statement of consensus than is necessary by assuming that either the people who make these statements also mean an affirmative to the two separate issues or that people are making the assumption, when reading the statements of consensus, that those two separate issues are one and the same.

The data is the data - 97% of actively publishing climatologists agree that the Earth is warming and that humans are playing a significant role in that warming. The percentage of actively publishing climatologists that attribute more than 50% of the warming to humans is closer to 70%.
 
Climate Change is not a sham.
Well...true. More appropriately its The AGW movement (after all...the claim of 'Climate Change' is just their latest fall back position) and its more a 'scam' than a sham.

"****...we KEEP getting it wrong and it keeps blowing up in our face. Quick...what can we call it that CANT POSSIBLY fail...I know...we'll call it Climate Change and pretend thats what we meant all along. And the beauty of it is...thats the ONE THING that we KNOW we can always rely on...'climate change'."

Nice shirt, man.

You have the direct words from the Co Chair of the IPCC. Do you have anything to actually COUNTER that?
