Should the United States conduct a full, independent, expert scientific investigation into models and studies that say we face serious risks of man-made climate change and extreme weather disasters?
As incredible as it may seem, US government climate science has never been subjected to any such examination.
Instead, it has been conducted by government agencies and assorted climate, environmental, history, psychology and other “experts” paid by the same government agencies – to the tune of literally billions of dollars per year.
Moreover, all that time, effort, and money have been spent on studies that claim carbon dioxide and other “greenhouse gases” are causing unprecedented climate and weather cataclysms, requiring the immediate and total elimination of fossil fuels that supply 82% of all US energy.
Virtually none of it has been spent on studies of the powerful natural forces that have driven global warming and cooling, other climate changes and innumerable extreme weather events throughout Earth and human history.
Replacing all that energy – under the Green New Deal we hear so much about lately, or some similar schemes – would cost this country up to $93 trillion by 2030! That’s $65,000 per family per year!
Even worse, those same agencies and government contractors have actively prevented any independent review of their work.
They have intimidated, silenced and vilified anyone who attempted to question or examine their data, computer models, assumptions, algorithms, and conclusions.

They are adamantly opposed to any such review now. So are some 97% of all Democrats, environmentalists, and “mainstream” news media.
You have to wonder: If their work is as solid, above-board and honest as they claim – wouldn’t they be delighted to defend it in public, and prove their detractors wrong?
Since they so totally opposed to any independent review – what are they trying to hide?
President Trump’s proposed investigation would be conducted by a brand new Presidential Committee on Climate Science (PCCS), led by physicist and presidential advisor Dr. Will Happer.
It would be carried out by climate scientists and experts who did not participate in the original (alarmist) studies.
A decision about launching the PCCS will be made very soon. Support for the PCCS is urgently needed.
Many who oppose the PCCS claim human responsibility for climate change and extreme weather has already been resolved scientifically. That is simply not so.
A genuine scientific assessment has four necessary components. It must be comprehensive, objective, transparent and empirical.
There has never been a truly scientific assessment of global warming claims, anywhere on the planet.
In fact, even repeatedly referenced reports by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have faced no such review – and would fail at least three of those four criteria!
That is primarily because the IPCC computer models and claims of climate disasters are supported by virtually no real-world evidence.
PCCS opponents also say President Trump is acting irrationally on global warming. In reality, he is taking a far more scientific position than his critics are.
Skepticism is the primary pillar of Real Science. So being labeled a “skeptic” is high praise to real scientists.
If it’s Real Science, questions, skepticism, and constant reexamination are essential. Consensus is out.
If it’s a consensus – and questions and skepticism are prohibited – it’s not Real Science. PCCS opponents are telling us we have to accept their “consensus science” without question.
That means eliminating the fossil fuels that make our factories, healthcare, jobs, heating, lighting, food, internet and living standards possible. And put the federal government in control of all future energy and personal choices.
Certainly, the “science” that supposedly supports those demands should be examined carefully and scientifically before we rush to judgment on 82% of our energy. PCCS opponents don’t think so. They want a rush to judgment.
The bottom line is very simple. President Trump should be applauded for proposing the PCCS, and for being open-minded enough to reconsider global warming claims – before he or we accept them as gospel.
Americans need to support him against the very vocal (and self-interested) people and organizations that oppose the PCCS.
We need to take immediate action to support President Trump on this vitally important initiative.
Use the above link. Send him a quick note. Real, evidence-based climate science demands that we have this PCCS review. So does the future of our country and our children.

Politically, the science of global warming/climate change was settled years ago. Now they are hard at work forcing their solution. In places like the UK, France, and to a lesser extent California there has been significant progress on this forced solution. To have real science undermine this progress simply can’t be tolerated. That is why the PCCS is so strongly opposed.
We often hear that time is running out on climate change. That is actually true. As the years pass the climate will make it more and more obvious that we are not on the path to disastrous warming. The data already exists showing that extreme weather events have not become more frequent. That is why the activists are in such a hurry. It isn’t earth that is running out of time, it is the climate change movement.
A hundred physicists signed a letter disputing Einstein’s theory of relativity. Consider how long it would have taken that science to recover if it operated on the basis of consensus.
Hundreds of $Billions wasted on the global warming fear industry without using the scientific method yet 75,000 illegals per month break into the USA , drain its resources and the politicians can’t carve out a fraction of a percent of the budget to protect the countries people or sovereignty ?
What is the difference between this and an armed invasion of the USA ?
Well they don’t have weapons do they . No because they don’t need them
in order to rob , rape , pillage and mass murder through drug deaths .
The biggest military in the world by a mile and the southern border is
not even a speed bump ? Clearly this is planned is it not ? A population replacement strategy , a slave market by any other name , a guaranteed vote buying machine . Why not eliminate the border , let everyone in and then just take over the other countries as their economies implode ?
Unquestionably, an independent scientific investigation should be conducted about regional and global climate. Perhaps this study can make more obvious the vital fact that it is the oceans, not the atmosphere, which drive climate. A good scientist will come up with an idea, put the idea to an array of tests to determine if it is valid and eventually declare that it is a “theory” since establishing a fact in science is the art of hubris. Once the theory is established, that scientist will go to all available means to try to falsify it, meaning look for ways in which it might be proven wrong. None of these principles of the scientific method have been employed in today’s version of climate science.
