The new UN IPCC report on climate change dropped this morning, and guess what? The world is going to boil if we don’t end cheap energy right away.
Bet you didn’t see that coming.
You can expect this message to be turned up to 11 by the media throughout the day. John Kerry will likely issue a strongly worded statement!
Here’s how Barrons magazine reports it this morning:
Climate Report Must Be ‘Death Knell’ For Fossil Fuels: UN Chief
A bombshell climate science report “must sound a death knell” for coal, oil and gas, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said Monday, warning that fossil fuels were destroying the planet.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change concluded that the 1.5C temperature goal of the Paris Agreement would likely be breached around 2030 — a decade earlier than it itself projected just three years ago.
Guterres called the IPCC’s assessment — the most detailed review of climate science ever conducted — “code red for humanity. This report must sound a death knell for coal and fossil fuels, before they destroy our planet,” he said in a statement.
Heh. File this under, “Meanwhile, Back in the Real World.”
I’ll be back with updates later.

You dumb-fucks read the chart. Anthropogenic change is impossible to deny. Climate Change Dispatch is Quackery bullshit. You fucking idiots are getting people killed. You will rot in hell. https://www.ipcc.ch/sr15/chapter/spm/
Another eloquent and science based argument, from a climate expert! We can all go home now.
If you’re so worried about it tell it to the Chinese, Africans and Asians. They don’t believe the Global Warming theory. They are going full speed ahead with coal fired power plants and fossil fuel usage. Nothing the West can do can negate that simple fact.
As for me I want to stay warm in the Winter. So don’t let the door knob hit you on your bottom on the way out.
Hey Exegesisjoe,
Too bad your limited vocabulary prevents from posting any commentary that actually compels a reader to review the facts and maybe learn something on this issue. Meanwhile, I completely deny the climate change campaign and even totally reject it. Go back to school, learn a few things about real science and be willing to believe facts.
Apparently, this credulous fool accepts any image he sees as fact. He should avoid viewing works by Hieronymous Bosch.
We will all die. Just not for any of the reasons they cite.
If I were granted three wishes, I am quite certain that I would use one of them to fulfill a requirement that national leaders and lawmakers learn about Earth history and the basics of planetary climate science. If the knuckleheads who meets at the IPCC meetings and issue their ridiculous statements actually knew what they were talking about, they would know better than to publish these comical essays and crazy claims.
To begin with, it must be known to everybody that the oceans, not the atmosphere, drive the climate. The thermal momentum of the world’s seas is 2300 times greater than that of the gaseous film that surrounds the planet.
What happens to the oceans, causes changes to the atmosphere, not vice versa. Secondly, an awareness of world geologic and climatic history over the past 32 million years would make all to obvious that climate changes frequently and sometimes rapidly and for reasons completely beyond human control. Do not ignore the FACT that we are still in a stage of the Pleistocene Ice Age, currently in an interglacial period where warming prevails between ice advances from the polar regions. This cycle has been going on at 120,000- to 150,000 periods for the past 2.5 million years and it’s probably not finished yet. Any warming we can possibly measure today reflects the natural warming that has been taking place for the past 15,000 years and will almost certainly reverse within the next 5- to 10,000 years.
The IPCC seeks to scare humanity into draconian recoil from modern advances, almost as if in shame, in a useless effort to reverse the course of perceived climate change. The scare tactic is that we must take these measures to prevent or diminish more future climate catastrophes. This is very interesting as I am still waiting to hear one just a single valid climate catastrophe that has happened to date. Citing hurricanes, wild fires, droughts and floods only highlight weather activity as they feature current climate conditions. None of these things indicate any change in climate, especially anything that resulted from human activity.
The only reasons that allow this Climate Crisis campaign to continue is that it yields money, influence and political power to those who advance it in hopes that the ignorant public will believe what they’re told. After so many decades of hearing this noise, many people who know better have become reluctant to speak out against the propaganda for fear that they will be seen as nut jobs, when it fact it is the NUT JOBS who are winning this propaganda battle. We must find a way to put this to rest and save our standards of modern society. The Global Warming nonsense is the idiots’ strongest weapon to squash freedom and intellectual honesty and we’re letting them get away with it.
Hey Exege !
Didn,t we tell your mommy not to turn on your computer without first vetting any sites ? Back to an afternoon of PacMan for you, young man ! May one of those icebergs fall upon you !
GREETINGS FROM NEW ZEALAND…..THIS GENERAL SHOULD BE REDUCED IN THE RANKS FORTHWITH…TO A PRIVATE??!! ? WHAT ARMY DOES HE COMMAND?? IPCC BRIGADE?? THANK YOU..REGARDS TO ALL, TREVOR.
