In Davos, Facts Trump Climate Fears

trump at davos wefThe US President Donald Trump was the clear winner at the World Economic Forum at Davos, despite the best efforts of climate doomsayers.

The theme for the World Economic Forum in Davos this week is “Stakeholders for a Cohesive and Sustainable World.”

It’s a noble aim but one that’s looking increasingly unlikely.

“Davos Man” — the pejorative shorthand for the rich liberal elite who catch up in the Swiss Alps each year — is still in control of the agenda of the world’s most elite conference.

The vague nouns beloved of Davos men and women — inclusion, resilience, climate ­action, sustainability — peppered the program, which is in full swing this week with more than 3000 delegates in attendance.

But their political power is slipping away, starkly illustrated when the conference’s two highly unlikely protagonists — Donald Trump and Swedish teen activist Greta Thunberg — were anything but cohesive on Wednesday.

Trump, the face of resurgent populist politics throughout the West and a conventional approach to business and economic growth, clashed with Thunberg, who shot to stardom as the frustrated face of “climate action” — a sort of Joan of Arc who demands an immediate end to fossil fuel use.

German economist Klaus Schwab founded the World Economic Forum in 1971. A not-for-profit foundation, its mission is to “improve the state of the world by engaging business, political, academic and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas.”

No event attracts such a prestigious flock of political and business leaders. Apart from the US President, this year’s talkfest saw Prince Charles, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, and Alphabet chief executive Sundar Pichai rub shoulders.

And perhaps no other event emits such worthy, if banal, remarks.

“We are totally committed as leaders to driving change. It’s a race without a finish line, but we will make incremental gains as we go forward,” US businessman Peter Grauer told a rapt audience. …snip…

For Trump, this year’s conference was a platform to rub his success in the noses of the world’s elite, who had largely written him off when he was running for the White House in 2016, then derided his early years as President — and now face his likely re-election before the next Davos meeting in January next year.

“The American dream is back, bigger, better and stronger than ever before … and no one is benefiting more than America’s middle-class,” Trump told the forum.

It’s a claim, however galling for the audience, that is becoming harder to refute. Wage growth in the US has picked up under his presidency, rising back above 3 percent and bringing to an end a period of real income stagnation more than a decade long.

The US, with a freshly-inked deal with China, appears to be winning the trade war. The stock market, Trump’s preferred measure of success, has continued to achieve new records. And the US economy is wallowing in the longest economic expansion in its history.

Trump was sending a message not only to the world but also to his Democratic foes.

“We will never let radical socialists destroy our economy, wreck our country or eradicate our liberty,” Trump said, in a none too veiled swipe at calls to stamp out fossil fuel use or impose taxes to curb carbon dioxide.

“Fear and doubt is not a good thought process because this is a time for tremendous hope and joy and optimism,” he said, calling on delegates to “reject the perennial prophets of doom and their predictions of the apocalypse”.

Trump struck the wrong, upbeat tone at a conference convened on the premise of an urgent need for action to save the planet, reveling in the US’s new-found position as the world’s No 1 producer of oil and natural gas.

    Climate alarmists base their opinions on assumptions that have no basis, to which they cling as if they were the only salvation table that would free humanity from a catastrophe. Those assumptions of his make difficult, make the understanding of the weather impossible, do not lead to any part that is not lost in ridiculous nonsense that what it seems is a slap of bad taste. Instead, Trump exhibits sensible opinions, characterized by prudence that admits no doubts, and that takes into account the contributions of climate science based on credible, long-standing research. His opinions do not put man between a rock and a hard place, not before a frightful future, full of disasters, but before a promising future, full of successes, of prosperity; and, besides, they contribute to man the possibility of assuming a realistic, at all fictitious, position about the climate. It is necessary to leave aside alarmism, fatalism, the catastrophism without a certain foundation. We cannot travel along the path that wants us to believe, what is crazy, that we are capable of combating climate change, that we are to blame for climate change and that we must banish CO2 from the planet. That’s absurd. Enough, let’s be rational. Let us adhere to President Donald Trump’s proposals on climate change, without fear, without hesitation; but now, because the stubbornness in defending ideas out of all common sense about the weather, is what will lead us to the real disaster.

      The climate alarmists do have a basis for their assumptions but these are fraudulent. Unfortunately much of the fraud has been done at tax payer expense. NOAA has adjusted the historical data to make the time period before 1950 appear colder and that after 1950 warmer. More recently weather stations in rural areas and at higher altitudes have been eliminated so the remaining stations will report a higher average temperature. This provides a basis for their claim that four out of the last five years have been the warmest this century. The climate model RCP8.5 is perhaps the widest used as the basis for the climate hysteria. It is the most extreme of the models predicting a 5 degree C increase in temperature. Not even the knowledgeable climate activists believe this will come true. However, this model is perhaps the most used to support the prophecies of doom. People appointed by Obama used RCP8.5 to create the National Climate Assessment. There is plenty of fraud to act as the basis of the climate hysteria.

      Good on President Trump for taking the head shot at the real enemy : Socialism. Climate Change is the socialist Trojan Horse, a fabrication.
