Seeing through the 'climate scam'

Dr. Eric Grimsrud (May 5 letter to the editor) bemoans that all do not agree with him that CO2 emissions are dangerous to the planet.

Charles Mackay wrote in his book, “Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds”: “Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.”

Grimsrud should be overjoyed that his herd includes our masquerading U.S. president, the Democratic Party, most evangelical religions, and about half of U.S. voters.

He should be delirious that his herd includes every government website, the 2013 Glacier National Park workshop for high-school teachers, all major media, and most schools and universities.

And he should be beside himself to have the company of FVCC and the University of Montana, which not only push the climate scam on their students but also promote its derivatives of Agenda 21, sustainability and smart growth, all of which truly have no place in academic curricula.

Grimsrud should cheer that the climate Borg has assimilated uncountable students and turned them into mindless, eco-freak parrots, who don’t know what they don’t know about climate.

Fortunately, common-sense people see the climate scam for what it is: a government-promoted, atheistic, false religion created to control your life and take your money. They are the ones who will save America for Grimsrud’s grandchildren.

The eco-freak climate alarm has failed. They never proved their unfounded claims. Their green-energy “solutions” bombed because they increase energy cost, food cost, taxes, and regulation.

People are hungry, people need jobs, and people come before the planet. People need low-cost fuel and electricity, which can only come from carbon or nuclear fuels.

To understand why Grimsrud’s science is wrong, read Steve Goreham’s book “The Mad, Mad, Mad World of Climatism.” It’s easy and has references. Read it to avoid being assimilated into Grimsrud’s climate Borg. Otherwise, resistance is futile.
