Commentary by Samuel Strait – February 27, 2023 Looks like it is fair to say with the recent collapse of anything remotely resembling expertise from many of our "Expert" class over the past three years, it is not surprising that more of the Country's citizens will be much more cautious when listening to the "expert pronouncements" going forward. Gone will be the totality of acceptance found so widely in the population during the Covid years when an invisible pathogen wrought havoc on the world's population. Now it is time for the same response to the religion of catastrophic climate change. Just who are the people who repeatedly showered us with hysteria over rising world temperatures that did not happen after repeated claims that the world was on the brink. Years of one deadline after another, all telling us that human activity was threatening the future of the world, and yet it did not happen. Quickly Global warming suddenly be came "Climate Change" when disaster failed to materialize. Yet, the world's climate has remained safely tucked away in the normalcy of regular climate variation, at least for the last 7,000 years or so, what is next? It seems, at least here in California and likely with many other Climate Change zealots, that the diminishing concern over the fading memory of impending climate disaster has galvanized the hysterics to begin proclaiming every normal weather occurrence as epic, never seen before. Hurricanes, a normal event in the Atlantic every year, are now being labeled as epic, historic, and even monumental, as if they were anything different from hundreds of years of storms. Tornadoes, drought, flooding, wild fires, and any other dramatic event that can be swept into the fear mongering voices of "Climate Change" now rule many in the expert class. Can't have a good disaster go to waste when promoting the world is coming to an end from violent storms and rapid heating of the earth's surface by those pesky humans who are engaged in destroying the planet. Yawn! As with Covid, the shrill voices of doom are beginning to be seen as anything but catastrophic, and that should concern those that spout the fraud and are now being viewed as hucksters with political intent to control your lives. If anything that the recent events surrounding the collapse of faith in our medical experts is to judge by, soon other "experts" will shortly suffer the same loss of credibility. Just as the response to Covid-19 failed in so many ways, Climate Change is well down a similar pathway. The Climate Change warriors will continue to shriek "the world is coming to an end" in 2030, 2035, 2050, 2100 until nobody is listening. If someone will now put a cork into the mouth of that idiot in Sacramento, Governor "empty suit" Gavin Newsom, noted "climatologist, and resident expert" maybe the world will find some peace. For we are now, and rightly so, sick of hearing him talk about everything "Climate Change" that happens in the State.
