Thursday, October 27, 2022

CALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As reported by the Daily Mail, Oct. 26, 2022, a group of scientists led by William Ripple, claim there is a "Code Red" climate emergency, a position that is not supported by the CLINTEL World Climate Declaration, nor by the recent CLINTEL Message to the Public, says Friends of Science Society. Likewise, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) AR6 report of August 2021, by the Physical Science Working Group I, only mentions the word 'crisis' and 'emergency' once in reference to media coverage.

Key Points: 
  • "Code Red" climate emergency claims are not credible and are countered by CLINTEL's World Climate Declaration says Friends of Science Society.
  • Bloomberg claims Canada has a 'dirty secret' on climate, debunked by Samuel Furfari; 'Climate Colonialism' denounced by Friends of Science.
  • On Oct. 20, 2022, Bloomberg claimed that " Canada has a big dirty secret " because emissions had increased, despite Prime Minister Trudeau's claims of being a climate leader.
  • The 'dirty secret' is not only that emissions increased, despite draconian carbon taxes and regulations, but that Canada's astounding immigration rates mean climate targets cannot be met.

CALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As the COP27 UN Climate Conference approaches in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt (Nov 6-18, 2022), developing nations are jostling for 'loss and damage' climate reparations to dominate discussions, as reported by the Financial Times, Oct. 09, 2022, demands which are unlikely to be met, says Friends of Science Society.

Key Points: 
  • WMO "State of Climate Services" report appears to rely on the implausible RCP 8.5 scenario, without which the 'climate emergency' disappears and there is no need to race to NetZero.
  • "For years, the agreed target [for climate aid to developing nations] was $100 billion per year up to 2025, a target that was never reached.
  • (In 2021, it is estimated that the richer countries provided about $75 billion in various forms of bilateral and multilateral climate aid).
  • Friends of Science says that without the implausible scenarios RCP 8.5 and 6, the perceived climate emergency is over.
