This is what the AGW scare-mongering has wrought
Last year, an anxious, depressed 17-year-old boy was admitted to the psychiatric unit at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne. He was refusing to drink water. Worried about drought related to climate change, the young man was convinced that if he drank, millions of people would die. The Australian doctors wrote the case up as the first known instance of “climate change delusion.”
Robert Salo, the psychiatrist who runs the inpatient unit where the boy was treated, has now seen several more patients with psychosis or anxiety disorders focused on climate change, as well as children who are having nightmares about global-warming-related natural disasters.
Good job, Climate Changers! You bought this through your creating a climate of fear, now you own it.
Meanwhile, an “emergency trip” for Believers
Scientists are to hold an emergency summit to warn the world’s politicians they are being too timid in their response to global warming.
Climate experts from across the world will gather in Copenhagen next month to agree a stark message to policy makers, which they hope will break the political deadlock on efforts to curb rising temperatures. The meeting follows “disturbing” studies that suggest global warming could strike harder and faster than expected.
First, won’t all those airplane trips put massive amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere, the very thing they claim is killing Mother Earth? Second, if it is simply to agree on something they all agree with, couldn’t they do it with a web meeting, and save massive amounts of energy? Or, do they just want a trip to lovely Copenhagen?
The meeting will publish an update to the 2007 report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Richardson said the IPCC report was “wishy-washy” on issues such as sea level rise. “The IPCC talks of a 40cm sea rise this century. Well, if the consensus now is a rise of a metre or more then they need to know that.”
Consensus is not science. It is just more scare-mongering. Refer back to the first article.
