BBC is reporting that Mark Carney
says household energy bills will drop by 2030 thanks to new
technologies, omitting the fact that someone must pay for power
grid and generation upgrades, says Friends of Science Society.
Media outlets are reporting 'hottest day ever' despite most nations
having carbon taxes, thus creating climate policy confusion.
CALGARY,
Alberta, July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- On
July 10, 2024, BBC reported that
former Bank of England Governor
Mark Carney said, "Greener
technologies will help drive down household bills by the end of the
decade," without explaining who will pay for the necessary power
grid and generation upgrades or how this can be implemented in less
than 6 years, says Friends of Science Society. According to Dr.
Benny Peiser of the Global Warming
Policy Foundation (GWPF), there is already a Net Zero Rebellion by
the public going on across the UK and Europe. [Published reports by the GWPF show
the costs per household in the UK could be £100,000. or
USD$128,948.88.

Similar green plans for Canada
don't seem to offer lower prices. A recent study by economist
Ross McKitrick for the Fraser
Institute on Canada's Emissions
Reduction Plan found that it would cause the economy to stagnate,
would cost $6,700 per worker annually
by 2030, which is more than five times the cost per worker compared
to the carbon tax alone. Likewise, the plan would fail to meet the
Net Zero targets. For Canada's
proposed emission reduction efforts, the global average temperature
would be only reduced by 0.007° C (seven thousandths of a degree
Celsius) as of 2100 compared to the case if Canada does nothing.
Prof. Simon Michaux has produced
a new study and webinar for the Geological Survey of Finland which shows that on a global scale, he
estimates that some 800,000 new non-fossil fuel power stations
would be required for Net Zero 2050; the non-fossil fuel power
plant fleet was only 46,423 in 2018.
This brings into question the quality of Mark Carney's math and his grip on the practical
realities and costs of decarbonizing the future with 'green' tech
or reaching Net Zero at all, says Friends of Science.
Media outlets around the world have been blaring that the
"hottest day on record" occurred on July
21st, 2024 in terms of the global average surface air
temperature. Now it's the hottest days on record with 2 days in a
row!! On a closer look, the Copernicus records only go back to
1940. The 1930's are deemed to have been much hotter than today as
explained by Tony Heller. Friends of
Science Society's president, Ron
Davison, P. Eng., has put together a series of colorful
charts showing how the earth is actually cooling over time.
While there has been a perceptible bump in global warming this
past year, most scientists attribute this to the astounding volume
of water vapor from the Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption injected into
the stratosphere; this effect is projected to last for the next
five years. Water vapor is the most influential greenhouse gas, as
explained in the Friends of Science Society's "Climate Science
Essay."
The World Bank reports on their carbon pricing dashboard the
near global adoption of carbon pricing, but people feel confused
paying a carbon tax on the promise by politicians that this will
reduce global warming and stop extreme weather.
According to Roger Pielke, Jr.,
climate policy analyst of many years, the Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate Change (IPCC) does not ascribe extreme weather events –
neither flooding nor wildfires, to human-induced climate change or
concentration of carbon dioxide.
Torontonians have just experienced significant flooding and now
politicians from Prime Minister Trudeau to Mayor Olivia Chow are blaming climate change, despite
the fact that data shows a downward trend in precipitation. Urban
flooding is more a function of failing, aging infrastructure, paved
over landscapes and population growth, according to Robert Muir, P. Eng. Good public policy must be
based on objective evidence as Muir details in this paper.
'Hottest year ever' headlines create fear of a climate
apocalypse in young people, like Just Stop Oil activists. This
ended up with the "Whole Truth Five" being sentenced to 4 and 5
years in jail in the UK for conspiracy. Friends of Science took a
closer look at these events in this explainer video.
In Canada, "Last Generation"
plans to participate with activists in 8 different countries with
similar civil disobedience at airports. Their June 14, 2024 ultimatum letter demands a 50,000
strong national firefighting agency and that Canada commits to a legally binding signatory
status to Tzeporah Berman's "Fossil Fuel Non-proliferation
Treaty."
Roger Pielke, Jr. shows that
climate catastrophists are relying on outdated science and
implausible scenarios like the Representative Concentration Pathway
RCP 8.5.
About
Friends of Science Society is an independent group of earth,
atmospheric and solar scientists, engineers, and citizens that is
celebrating its 22nd year of offering climate science insights.
After a thorough review of a broad spectrum of literature on
climate change, Friends of Science Society has concluded that the
sun is the main driver of climate change, not carbon dioxide
(CO2).
