The Climate Of Lies Keeps Getting Hotter
by I&I Editorial Board  Aug 16, 2024 
 

The New York Times has recently published a long story warning that the planet’s climate tipping points are frighteningly near. The “great systems in the natural world,” the reporters say, “might be pushing toward collapse” due to man’s use of fossil fuel. [emphasis, links added]

Maybe so. Or the changes we’re seeing in the climate might be entirely natural.


But that won’t sell papers to a readership that suffers from a chronic and intellectually stunting case of confirmation bias.

The Times wants us to worry about the mass death of coral reefs, the abrupt thawing of permafrost, the collapse of Greenland ice, the breakup of West Antarctic ice, a sudden shift in the West African monsoon, loss of the Amazon rainforest and the shutdown of Atlantic currents.
