United
Nations Says It’s All Your Fault

A new
prayer from the United Nations disguised as a four-color .pdf says
that the weather is all your fault.
‘We
now have a better understanding of human-induced climate change,”
chants Michel Jarraud, the Secretary-General of the World
Meteorological Organization,“and climate scientists can
increasingly determine how large scale pressure and temperature
patterns influence the weather.”
They
prayer goes on to tie “extreme” weather in 2013 to
“human-induced” causes.
I
didn’t even know that the weather could read a human-induced
calendar.
Can I
get an “Amen”?
The
material in the report is so good that the WMO dispensed with the
customary laugh track that would normally go underneath it.
Because
let’s get this part straight: Climate scientists couldn’t spell
drought if you spotted them the first five letters. It's so bad they
ought to be issuing a red nose and floppy shoes with the degree.
There
is no scientific evidence, no creditable reports, which tie extreme
weather in 2013 to anything other than the fantasies of liberals.
There’s
speculation and there is hypothesis.
But
science that proves cause and effect?
No.
And
there can’t be.
That’s
because according to the exact science of our world economy, 2013
wasn’t extreme at all.
“The
reinsurance company Munich Re came out with its annual assessment of
natural disasters, and found that 2013 was an unusually quiet year,”
writes Time Magazine. “Catastrophes like floods and storms claimed
more than 20,000 lives around the world, and caused more than $125
billion in damages. While that’s clearly a lot—and the number of
deaths from disasters rose over 2012—both figures are well below
the 106,000 in deaths and $184 billion in losses that were
experienced on average over the past decade.”
Catch
that? 2012 was even less extreme.
If
you’re like me, you’re surprised.
I
didn’t even know Time Magazine was still published.
So,
who are you going to believe: The insurance companies who pay out
claims or the meteorologists at the United Nations whose jobs depend
on the human-created fantasy of climate change...
