@JuliaHB1

Here's the data I was referring to earlier today on @JuliaHB1's show.

The idea that industry is harming society, or sacrificing future generations is manifestly nonsense.

The claims being made at @COP26 by people who should know better are dangerous ideological BS.

@Future_Cities

As was discussed on the#FLOP26 Livestream last night with @Future_Cities, world 'leaders' (ha ha ha) at @COP26 are completely out of touch with reality as it is experienced in both the developing and developed worlds.

And here is a thread about why national treasure, David Attenborough is completely misguided by a dark and dangerous ideology -- also mentioned.

I'm not kidding when I say greens are deranged.

Their heads are a mess.

It's like when the drunk person says, "I'm not drunk, you're drunk".

Jimmy, you can't prove a negative.

And the rest is statistics.

Trees fall over, dude.

Y'see this is not science of any kind.

It's mythology, mysticism, perhaps even some kind of paganism.

You upset the Goddess, so she knocked over a tree.

Such ideology removes the necessity of causality from the ideologue's account of the world.

@RichardAENorth

On Tuesday, the #FLOP26 Livestream guest will be the force of nature that is Dr Richard AE North @RichardAENorth. We will be discussing the route from scaremongering to technocracy, and the parallels between global climate politics and the European Union.

Dr North was co-author and collaborator with the late, great and sorely-missed Christopher Booker.

They wrote one of the most important answers to the rampant fearmongering that now characterises politics.

Richard is one of the convenors of the Harrogate Agenda -- the most deeply considered and developed plan for Britain's exit from the European Union.

@COP26

Comment from the speaker open of @COP26:

"science is non-negotiable".

It is perhaps the most ideologically-driven and ANTI-science statement of our time.

https://twitter.com/COP26/status/1454768472068694022

Here's what Jacob Bronowski said of science:

"Science is a very human form of knowledge. We are always at the brink of the known. We always feel forward for what is to be hoped. Every judgement in science stands on the edge of error and is personal."

"Science is a tribute to what we can know, although we are fallible.

[...]

We have to cure ourselves of the itch for absolute knowledge."

@DavidRoseUK

James Murray wants to excuse himself from debate about the agenda he works so hard to sustain and profit from, by pitching it as project fear vs project fear.

Maybe so. But if there is an 'our' project fear, it is one which leaves democratic decision-making intact. @DavidRoseUK

I -- and others -- have plenty more to argue besides 'there's no point acting if developing nations emissions are still rising'.

But it's a good point, all the same, and one of many that the #NetZero approach cannot answer, as even 'pro-climate' arguments point out.

Here, for e.g., is Prof. Dieter Helm arguing that the #NetZero deadline approach is flawed, and will drive policymakers into a collision with the public. His solution is a carbon tax, the merits of which can be debated, but which is much more realistic.
