WARREN HARDING'S CLIMATE HOROSCOPE

ASTROLOGERS TAKE ON  PENDULUM DOWSERS

 IN A KNOCK DOWN-DRAG OUT  TAG TEAM DEBATE AT Judith CURRY'S  CLIMATE, ETC:

On September 3rd  Climate Etc. fan William Fabrizio posted a 103 year old newspaper clipping headlined

Evoking this explanation from climate skeptic Burl Henry:

"Your article had me wondering WHY it occurred. 

It turns out that it was due to the confluence of several factors that always cause temperatures to rise:

One: There was  a 42 month interval between VEI4 volcanic eruptions...

Two: There was an American business recession between Jan 1920 and May 1921, and temperatures always rise during a recession due to fewer SO2 aerosol emissions, because of idled foundries, factories, etc…

Nothing mysterious about the warming, just temporarily rising temperatures because of decreased atmospheric SO2 aerosol pollution... But the millions of deaths are a foretaste of where we are now heading, due to the”Net Zero” idiocy!"

Nonsense! responded Climate Etc, contributor C.R. Sant ( aka Melitamegalithic). He blames the1921 meltdown on the same forces that provoked the baleful supernova of 1604, and has let Lenin and President Harding off the hook for the body count by running his astrological climate model:

"Checking the year 1921 on astro software indicated that year as one of deadly inferior planet conjunctions  

(Kepler Trigon).

‘Inferior’ is the worst. "

For a reality check, Sant turned to the work of Nobel Laureate Maurice Allais, who abandoned economics to challenge Einstein's view of gravitation, and reported he had observed a precession of the plane of oscillation of a Foucault pendulum during the total solar eclipse of June 30, 1954. Though Allais work has defied reproduction, it's good enough for Sant, who  concludes that the 1921 heat wave arose from 

Maurice Allais seeing  something
 no one else could 

"Gravity vector change (see Allais effect) due to planetary close approaches (noted in similar in the past two years), besides seismic effects, affects air density which give rise to short term abnormal air/vapour changes – thermal hot spots-."

  

Mr. Sant is the author of several fine self-published books proposing that the deviation of  the orientation of megalithic temples  from the canonical signs of the zodiac is best explained by the undetected tectonic rotation of  Sicily & Malta  by some tens of degrees in the Dark Ages.

 

 

FOSSIL CARBON : THE FUTURE ISN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE

Significance

A wide array of scientific disciplines and industries use radiocarbon analyses; for example, it is used in dating of archaeological specimens and in forensic identification of human and wildlife tissues, including traded ivory. Over the next century, fossil fuel emissions will produce a large amount of CO₂ with no ¹⁴C because fossil fuels have lost all ¹⁴C over millions of years of radioactive decay. Atmospheric CO₂, and therefore newly produced organic material, will appear as though it has “aged,” or lost ¹⁴C by decay. 

By 2050, fresh organic material could have the same ¹⁴C/C ratio as samples from 1050, and thus be indistinguishable by radiocarbon dating. 

Some current applications for ¹⁴C may cease to be viable, and other applications will be strongly affected

FANTASTIC CLIMATOLOGY

Long before climate denial became a thing , the woods were full of furry - minded creatures making loud noises about the way the past ought to be.

Some insisted the pyramids of Egypt ,were built by extraterrestrials, others that the Maya pyramids were raised  by Jesus Christ during his North American sabbatical, and a substantial Minnesota contingent set to work doing the Lord's work by engraving mock runic inscriptions testifying to Lake Superior's discovery by Viking copper traders.

It goes on today,  but its first century was chronicled by Peabody Museum Director Steve Williams in this  cautionary book.  

Nothing in it remains unrivaled by its lineal internet descendent,

ANIMAL SACRIFICES SOAR IN TRUMP'S SWAMPY BACK YARD

"In a little over a month… nine wounded animals or carcasses have been discovered in the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge including a trio of piglets with their ears and tails cut off , a baby rat tied up in a bag,  a decapitated chicken and a dead dog with its neck snapped… alongside statuettes of Hindu deities and a trio of prayer flags...

The US Supreme Court upheld the right to animal sacrifice on religious grounds in a 1993 ruling. "

NO SCORE AND SEVEN YEARS AGO

When General Gage and his Redcoat army landed to take over Boston in the aftermath of the Tea Party, John Adams did not greet him with a platter of macaroons and corn dodgers to declare:

"I, for  one,  welcome  our  new alien overlords." 

Nor did the nation's Founders convene in 1787 to proclaim:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form diverse Efforts to change social Norms and establish Opportunities and Strategies to promote Behavior Change  ...

Yet that's what Obama's  Presidential Science Advisor John Holdren articulated in 2016 in an oration worthy of Brave New World or Coneheads , delivered  to an auditorium full of young Federal  bureaucrats looking  for  new turf to conquer, and citizens to rule:

"As  President  Obama  noted in his Executive Order 13707, behavioral  science  insights  can  support  a  wide  range of national priorities including ... accelerating the transition to a low carbon economy. 

That Executive Order, 13707, directs Federal agencies to apply behavioral science insights to their policies and programs, and it institutionalizes  the Social and Behavioral Science Team...The adminstration is releasing new guidance to agencies that supports continued implementation of

The Behavioral Science Insights Executive Order. 

John's performance begot two National Academy of Sciences reports:

The  "new guidance"  of  Executive  Order  13707  still applies  to every department of government, and requires  the Department of Defense to report back to the White House Social and Behavioral  Sciences Team at regular intervals, as to how the armed forces are being remodeled in accord with the executive guidance of an order that remains one signed by the Commander In Chief.

No advocates of  The Precautionary Principle at  the  National Academies -- and  there  are  many ,  have  so far stepped forward to ask if it applies to the warning given the 1787 Constitutional  Convention  by Yale  Professor Roger Sherman ,of the Committee of Five that drafted the Declaration of Independence: 

 “If the Executive can model the army, he    may set up an absolute government.” 

A fear  General Washington astutely echoed in his 1796 farewell address, when he  warned  the nation to:

avoid the necessity of those overgrown... establishments  which, under any form of government,  are inauspicious to liberty.

HAVEN'T WE SEEN THAT MUSTACHE BEFORE ?

The Heritage Foundation 2025 PROJECT has embraced the CO2 Coalition's NEW climate COLORING BOOK, THE WORK OF DR. WILL HAPPER & GREGORY WRIGHTSTONE

The white mustachE belongs to Wrightstone, 

FRACKING ARTISTE AND  Fishy avatar of the Coalitions's efforts to educate grades K through 6 in the facts of climate life IN AN ALTERNATIVE UNIVERSE WHERE bananas grow in greenhouses, worms are insects, ALBERT EINSTEIN STICKS HIS TONGUE OUT, and  ONLY fossil fuels CAN SAVE us from CO2 starvation

While this PRODUCTION has won applause from the American Petroleum Institute and The Federalist Society,  some scientists born after the War of 1812 have expressed reservations about Happer & Wrightstone's pitch

NEXT ON FOX NEWS,THE SCANDAL OF PHLOGISTON DENIAL

       13 Years before asking in

"How Long Can The IPCC Deny Thousands Of Publications Disputing CO2’s Influence?" 

James Delingpole told Royal Society President Sir Paul Nurse 

“It is not my job to sit down and read peer-reviewed papers because I simply haven’t got the time" 

That presumably includes the vastly larger literature confirming CO2 warming since Queen Victoria's science advisor Sir William Tyndall  demonstrated it experimentally five generations ago, and which has since generated a peer-reviewed consensus  even a committed  ignoramus  like Dellers  can  understand:

Untroubled by his lack of reading, Delingpole went on to assure Daily Telegraph  readers:

“…the Warmist faith so fervently held and promulgated by the Met Office is exactly the same faith so passionately, unswervingly followed by ( Prime Minister) David Cameron, Chris Huhne, Greg Barker, the Coalition’s energy spokesman in the Lords Lord Marland, and all but five members of the last parliament. 

And also by the BBC, (King Charles), almost every national newspaper, the European Union, the Royal Society, the New York Times, CNBC, the Obama administration, the Australian and New Zealand governments, your children’s schools, our major universities, our minor universities, the University of East Anglia, your local council”¦ Truly there just aren’t enough bullets!”
