An article appearing in Energies<\/em> declares that 1 Billion people will die due to climate change over the next 100 years! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Article is here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doom on you all!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The article may well be correct. There\u2019s a lot of verbiage that seems to be future casting based on previous articles and publications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given the human reproductive decline in China, Russia, Japan, The United States, and other westernized countries. The fear mongering may be a moot point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will 1 Billion people die in addition to those never being born or is that figure the sum total? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

100 years is a long time. Just look at what\u2019s happened in the past 70 years. Look at the accelerations in technology. It was entirely likely that humans would apply their technological prowess and found solutions\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

I say WAS<\/strong> with purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve run across some articles and been sent other articles that lead me to believe scientific rigor and the search for truth and understanding of the universe around us has become corrupted by dogma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is an article<\/a> describing one scholar\u2019s approach to getting funding and maintaining his job in academia. This article is about climate change too, and the author describes omitting information to get the piece published in a peer reviewed journal. The author even says this isn\u2019t science anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apparently, your article must reflect the current dogma.
You mustn\u2019t ask or answer questions that run counter to prevailing dogma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve seen this in all aspects of scientific inquiry. In recent years this protective approach to prevailing dogma has been particularly focused in the areas of Climate Change, and Medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What questions may you not ask? What facts must you not present? If you think about it you can easily extrapolate the chilling effect this attitude will have on scientific inquiry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same drivers exist in all scientific publications to a greater or lessor extent. This is driven in part due to funding and in part due to fettering brilliant minds with illogic in the name of political correctness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve seen this before\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n

Galileo Galilei, arguably the father of modern science, was put on trial by the church because he discovered that the Earth and all the planets revolved around the Sun. Church dogma placed Earth at the center of the universe. Galileo was eventually forced to recant his belief and discovery. He was placed under house arrest for the rest of his life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ringing any bells???<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let me help, MDs being stripped of their licenses to practice medicine because they spoke about and tried alternate treatments to COVID? Their unforgivable SIN<\/strong><\/em> was that those treatments worked!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s an example that I\u2019ve still not gotten an answer about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Biology there\u2019s a classification system for all life on the planet. This system seeks to provide order, and some information about the evolutionary pathway of all organisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the advent of modern DNA studies and sequencing, this classification system has undergone some revisions. We\u2019ve found that certain organisms are not related as closely to others as their appearance, and niche in the ecosystem would have suggested. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These discoveries have caused some organisms to be relocated from one branch to another branch of the classification system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many organisms are further sub-classified based on their color, habits, and evolutionary adaptations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A notable exception is an animal called Human.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Why are we special? Clearly all humans derive from the same basic body plan. So do Gorillas, and Chimpanzees. All humans function pretty much the same ways, our reproductive habits are the same. There are clear genetic differences otherwise we\u2019d all look the same, but we don\u2019t . There are diseases which afflict certain variations of humans and not others. Surely, these obvious core differences deserve the same scientific rigor. However human sub-classification stops at Homo sapiens sapiens which is redundant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is nothing less than scientific rigor stopping, because to go further would imply racism. Politically and societally racism is bad and therefore must never be reenforced in any way. So, the rigor and truth of scientific inquiry gets tossed right out the window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019d think there would be at least 6 subspecies of Human based on the occupied continents and variations that the environment of each continent induced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You sure have to declare your subspecies on government forms and job applications! So apparently, racism is perfectly fine if it provides a financial advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

I cite the Human issue because it\u2019s to my mind one of the most glaring. If we can\u2019t look at hard truths bravely and clear eyed we will inevitably miss critical information that would lead us in new directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that\u2019s where we are as a species. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We got really smart, but we peaked probably in the mid \u201990s. Instead of continuing to face uncomfortable truths we closed our eyes and put our fingers in our ears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look at our youth, Safe Spaces? Censoring Classical Literature? Math is Racist? How can we move forward if those who are supposed to create new advances can\u2019t handle conflict, dare to dream, or being wrong? <\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Science\u2026 Especially Science, is about trying and failing. One need only look at the history of flight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How many of those early inventors failed again and again, got up and dusted themselves off and tried again? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the Wright Brothers didn\u2019t get it right on the first try. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think what life would be like if those pioneers of flight had failed, gotten their feelings hurt and ran to their safe spaces, never to try again.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

We\u2019d be flying, but with balloons and blimps. The Montgolfier brothers, Joseph and \u00c9tienne achieved human flight with a hot air balloon in 1783. The pilot of the ballon was Pil\u00e2tre de Rozier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

120 years, from a hot air balloon to powered fixed wing flight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

66 years later we have 747 passenger planes and in the same year landed on the moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s the power of unfettered thinking. That\u2019s what happens when you\u2019re free to speak, to question, and to explore the edges of the unknown. That\u2019s what happens when the truth of science is seen and not feared or discounted because it doesn\u2019t fit some arbitrary world view.<\/p>\n\n\n

And yes\u2026 because I know these things, that is why I hate people like Dr. Fauci, and the purveyors of dogma around Climate and Medicine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Establishment scientists who silence truth are no better than the church in Galileo\u2019s time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They retard human advancement and the dim the human spirit. They dull brilliant minds by making scientists and amateurs alike, afraid to speak or discover.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

We know where this leads too. If everything must be iterative and done the same as we\u2019ve always done it due to dogma, then stagnation isn\u2019t far off. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give it a hundred years and our Doctors will be dancing around us casting out evil spirits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
