A number of years ago, I sent an article to my youngest brother in Iowa about dire predictions for corn and bean crops in our home state because of supposedly hotter weather in the coming years. He wrote back to say that he did not put much stock in such predictions and clued me into the forecasts by Climate Change | Armstrong Economics on climate cycles.
Since then, I have thought more critically when I hear the common refrain, “It must be climate change,” after an adverse weather event.
Martin Armstrong asserts that climate change is a fraud:
Perhaps we are now at the tipping point, and they cannot keep saying that the extremely cold winter is also caused by CO2 and global warming. The collapse of the gulf stream has nothing to do with CO2. This may result in a major confrontation that these people have been seriously wrong and what they are doing to the economy in trying to shut down fossil fuels at this point in time could result in tens of millions of deaths if the gulf stream collapses.
Why Climate Change is a Fraud | Armstrong Economics
What is absolutely astonishing, is that this entire global warming propaganda that they then changed it to climate change because it was not just getting warmer – but colder. The entire premise is that the climate is changing all because of the Industrial Revolution and CO2 they REFUSE to address the fact that there are natural cycles to weather since the Earth was born. This is the cover from January 31, 1977, They were calling it a mini Ice Age. The year 1977 was the coldest even in NYC. Interestingly, this followed the 8.6-year cycle and 51.6 years from 1977 will take us to 2029 which is the major target in climate determined by our computer as we will see.
Climate Change – The Big Fraud but Why? | Armstrong Economics
Looking back over the past 50+ years, I realize the number of predicted climate disasters that have not come true:
SUMMARY
Modern doomsayers have been predicting climate and environmental disaster since the 1960s. They continue to do so today.
None of the apocalyptic predictions with due dates as of today have come true.
What follows is a collection of notably wild predictions from notable people in government and science.
More than merely spotlighting the failed predictions, this collection shows that the makers of failed apocalyptic predictions often are individuals holding respected positions in government and science.
While such predictions have been and continue to be enthusiastically reported by a media eager for sensational headlines, the failures are typically not revisited.
I have learned to be wary of climate alarmism, since this alarmism may be devastating for true preparedness:
Truth be known, the entire climate crisis agenda is based on computer models that can’t possibly be trusted as a basis for establishing draconian energy policies, and which consistently predict planetary warming that is two to three times greater than actually recorded by satellites, weather balloons and surface temperature monitors.
As a matter of fact, NONE of the dire apocalyptic doomsayer predictions have come true, including claims that extreme U.S. weather conditions would become either more severe or frequent.
We are experiencing disastrous economic and social consequences of needless climate-alarm-based energy policies premised upon precautionary "worst case" climate model projections that even leading scientific contributors to the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) now admit are running far too hot.

No matter how far the predictions are off, the sycophants in the media will continue predicting the talking points that the science is settled and continue their support for the destruction of industries that produce reasonably priced and reliable energy.
In other words, the hype, hysteria, and spectacularly wrong apocalyptic predictions will continue, promoted by virtue signaling “environmental grievance hustlers” like AOC, who says we have “only 12 years left to stop the worst impacts of climate change.”
Tony Heller asserts that alarmist talk about the coming apocalypse harms the debate:
Tony Heller, a geologist who lives in Cheyenne, is among a growing number of scientists who say that the idea climate change will bring about the apocalypse is not only unsupported by science, it’s harmful to the debate.

John Hayward shows how the endgame for the elite is not about saving the planet:
There is far more to Biden and the other ‘elite’s’ plan with electric vehicles than saving the planet … in fact, we’re pretty sure the ‘planet’ has very little to do with any of this push to make us all reliant on green energy that is in no way adequate for our energy needs.
John Hayward put together an exceptional (as usual) thread on what they’re really up to:
Stephen Moore advocates saying no to world climate reparations:
I’ve made the case in previous columns that the climate change movement is mostly a climate change hustle. Let’s be real. None of this is about changing the temperature of the Earth. Even the most naive environmental activist can’t really believe that building windmills and driving Teslas is going to cool the planet.
This is all about money. Hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars of government handouts.
That was never more blatantly transparent than at this year’s sham COP 27 climate conference in Egypt, which was attended by more than 20,000 delegates and activists from more than 100 countries. The only agreement that the delegates could reach was a hollow “commitment” from the rich Western nations — by that they mean the United States — to give “reparation” money to the poor nations of the world.
If you’ve never heard of this loony concept before, the theory is that America owes the rest of the world money for burning fossil fuels over the last hundred or so years.
