  • Heartland Institute Research Fellow Linnea Lueken addresses the claims that flooding is getting more frequent and severe because of climate change. The truth is, flooding has always occurred, and most recent examples are more due to infrastructure than heavy rainfall alone.

    Thx Linnea, caught this one hot off the presses. I plugged you to Tony Heller on his Tube site. I'm very regualar on Tony's prolific videos. Willie Soon called him the top guy for debunking the false narrative, with the enthusiasm that only Willie can display! Love all you folks who are deconstructing the deadly narrative, it's a necessary and very good work. Tally Ho!

      Scientists are sceptics. They demand evidence. They go where the evidence leads them. When the evidence changes, they change their minds. Deniers are immune to evidence. Heller routinely ignores, misrepresents, oversimplifies, cherry-picks, and otherwise distorts evidence. He does no actual science.
      Don't get me started on Soon.

    No.. Just for the benefit of all.. if you examine Palaeolithic records of co2 vs temp you’ll note that there was a NO CORRELATION.. Additionally, the Hawaii records of co2 AKA The Keeling graph, was unable to detect any variation in co2 following the Covid lockdowns or the large industrial uptake in 2000 from India and from china.. furthermore, Dansgaurd Oeschger oscillations occurring during the quaternary period showed huge anomalies in temp and co2 wherein temp rose by 5-15 deg in as little as a few decades and this occurred several times over the 700k year records via ice core data.. There seems to be a synchronous duality between co2 effect and ocean gyres which has only become omnipresent since the closure of the typhus sea.. Finally l, beryllium 10 isotope data shows a perfect correlation to the mini ice age and it is now understood that the suns heliosphere is pivotal to the solar system’s ability to deflect GCR (deep space particles travelling at 50k km/sec) as these partial ionise the upper atmosphere and seed cloud formation which in turn blocks sun light and increase our reflection or earths albedo.. This finding was further verified via sun spot records which show a weakening sun.. Currently the earths magnetosphere is weakening and it is not entirely clear as to the reasons why as such we know it’s weakening because we are detecting Aurora lower latitudes, even though the Sun has not been particularly active.. if you are wish to remain attached to 200-year-old scientists under misunderstood concepts, then please do so anyone who believes that CO2 has the ability to do. The heavy lifting of climate change is a clown. I have given you all the facts here, you need now to go and examine these facts for yourselves do not let dark green or deep green as I like to call it try and follow people educate yourself don’t take my word for it

    Blame for increasing property losses from floods in the US should be placed squarely on the National Flood Insurance Program that was cooked up by do-gooder politicians in the 1970s. Without artificially low flood premiums, many of the structures that are flooding today never would have been built in the first place. When your agent quotes you a flood premium of $80,000 a year for your planned $400,000 home, the market is trying to tell you something: "It's too risky to build here."

    Flooding Data: The U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports "low confidence" that climate change is impacting flooding. There is low confidence in the indication that flooding frequency has changed. This suggests it is equally possible that climate change could make flooding less frequent and severe.

    What ultimately happens?
    If the greenhouse effect melts the poles humans move inland and to other places to cold or dry to farm as now many of the deserts are either inland seas or becoming very suitable for agriculture. Unless the poles melt overnight only a few rich people with beach front homes will truly lose out.
    If an ice age occurs.
    This is likely to occur faster than the melting of the poles and will be a far more rapid disaster for agriculture.
    First most of the higher areas will become too cold and dry to farm, winter will last longer and snow fields will move closer to the equator. As many farms in the most prime locations are now under concrete vast areas of viable farming land will be lost with no where to farm famines will quickly become the norm.
    As the oceans fall new land will open up but it won’t be viable for agriculture for many years.
    If the poles melt the previous areas to cold and or dry to farm will almost instantly become viable for agriculture especially with modern farming techniques, on the other hand former sea beds will take many years to become viable.
    So which is worse hot or cold?
    Only an ideology akin to nazism would say cold is better.
