Frederick Forsyth: BIG BROTHER'S CLIMATE CHANGE HYSTERIA

DAILY EXPRESS:
Thirty years ago we were all being told to rush out and buy ­thermal underwear for the coming New Ice Age.

What happened to it?


Two years ago we were assured that “global warming” would give us warmer, wetter winters but long, hot, dry summers.

Is that what has been happening in Tewkesbury?


Now we are told global warming has given us the wettest summer since records began. Maybe. But this year’s downpour is just one inch more than nine other years and eight of them took place when there wasn’t a car or jet engine on the planet. So what caused the broken records?

It is clear the climate is changing and man is a contributory factor. But as to man’s exact percentage contribution, we simply do not know. Climate has simply billions of variables which even huge computers cannot solve.

What effect on ­climate does violent solar activity (in this area the sun has been going crazy for several years) have?

And why do Pacific currents such as El Nino and La Nina have such a staggering effect on the entire global climate when they mal­function (as they both just have)? And why do they do it? We just do not know.

But we do know some things. We know that there have been rhythmic warmings and coolings of the climate. And we know they occurred when mankind had nothing to burn more than a few logs from the forest.

...No, I do not believe man is doomed.

Nor do I believe he should behave as if he is insane.

But I do believe our Big Brothers will use the headless chicken hysteria to rip vast quantities of money from our ­pockets, shouting “save the planet, save the planet” while they gorge themselves on our sweat and labour.
YUP: BIG BROTHER IS A GREEN LEFTIST TAXING US FOR THE COMMON GOOD.

THE CLIMATE WON'T KILL US, BUT THEIR TAXES WILL.
