We Have Time for Transition to Nuclear Power

The Ethical SKeptic: The Climate Change Alternative We Ignore (to Our Peril)

Now follow this experiment to its next inferential step. From June 2018 through to the end of 2020, humans emitted significantly lower CO2 than in the most recent years. One can observe this in the chart to the right which indicates lower emissions during the June 2018 through end of 2020 timeframe.12 As we saw in the previous chart in Observation 1A, this was due unequivocally to China’s reaction to something which caused it to shut down industrial activity during that 2.5 year duration. Despite this sustained exceptional lower trend in CO2 emissions, curiously the Earth also happened to experience its hottest non El Niño year on record in 2020.13

This was explained away with no study nor ability to forecast whatsoever, as stemming from the following: “global shutdowns related to the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic reduced particulate air pollution in many areas, allowing more sunlight to reach the surface and producing a small but potentially significant warming effect.”14 The credibility of climate models was severely strained with this form of ad hoc rescue. If 2.5 years of lower CO2 emissions also causes global temperatures to rise, then what are we doing? And why did we not know that this would occur in advance? Our models should have indicated this through ergodicity, yet they did not. We are broaching pseudo-theory with such an apologetic method. A theory which quickly explains everything a posteriori without any relevant research, likely explains nothing.

The inference to be drawn from Observations 1, 1A, 1B, 2, and 3 above supports the construct (pre-hypothesis) that something else may be driving the production of CO2 and methane emissions into the atmosphere aside from simply man. That something else is

a. a strong independent input variable which is already hotter than historical without external impetus,

b. functions independent of carbon and methane emissions, and

c. is at the same time causing the planet’s oceans to warm at a rate unachievable through man’s activity alone.

This heat is behaving like a strong independent input variable and not constrained-dependent output result. If climate heat is a constrained-dependent output, and we have sufficient enough grasp of its dynamics to begin to blame specific companies, peoples and countries for climate change, then our models necessarily should have predicted this 2020 temperature rise phenomenon as well. Yet our models were not successful in doing so. This is inductive (heteroductive) inference to be sure, but is also strong enough in terms of inferential merit to introduce plurality. Something is wrong in the epistemic sauce, and the 2020 Covid-19 experiment demonstrated this in spades. We are now compelled to introduce plurality, no matter how many fake skeptics tantrums this serves to elicit.

The next question along such a critical path of inquiry would be, from whence does this ‘already hotter’ heat derive? We believe that the answer can be drawn as inference from the next six critical path and deductive observational elements, which follow.

If the above is true, and if the astrophysicists are right, the Sun will offset much Man's impact on warming during the coming Solar Cycle. This would provide time for a slow-but-concerted shift towards nuclear power. Instead, the ruling class wants to wield Green ideology for a far more destructive "lockdown" of the economy in the name of climate change. The inflation unleashed by their policies will start wars and political revolutions. There isn't enough raw material supply for a rapid shift away from internal combustion engines and fossil fuels. The electric grid cannot and will not scale fast enough, moreover under the name of Green ideology, the ruling class is also retarding electricity grids will alternative energy and "green" regulations that make risk of catastrophic failure higher. Electricity prices will soar along with general inflation. A planned disaster is being orchestrated by those in power because they cannot maintain power without crushing economic competitors. This goes for USA vs China, but also internally between the less than elite ruling class and the rising elite in emerging industries that operate outside of the government's direct political control.
