Disappointing but not shocking. The narrative is “save the planet” but the reality is “destroy human flourishing.”

Meanwhile, the top 3 commodities traded globally are: 1. Brent Crude Oil 2. WTI Crude Oil 3. Natural Gas.

This Eco-Revolution sounds great-on paper. Like paper in a futurist Sci-Fi book. For those of us living in reality these ideas make most rational folks anxious. To have those on power who are true believers in this fantasy is frightening.

The belief that emissions of carbon dioxide is an "existential threat" to mankind results from an application of the Fallacy of Misplaced Concreteness by the argument made by a climate model under which an "abstract" event of the future for Earth's climate system is mistaken for a "concrete" event of the future for the system, where an "abstract" event of the future is "abstracted" from a location in space and time but a "concrete" event of the future has such a locationl A collection of "concrete" events of the future is an example of a statistical population but a collection of "abstract" events of the future is not. An application of the Fallacy of Misplaced Concreteness creates the illusion of a statistical population though there isn't one. A consequence from the lack of a statistical population is for nil information gain about the conditional outcomes of the events of the future for Earth's climate system to be conveyed to the California Air Resources Board (CARB) by the runs of a climate model precluding regulation of this system by the CARB. The CARB did not respond to being presented with a deductive proof of its inability to regulate the conditional outcomes of the future for Earth's climate system by my representative in the California Assembly, Thus, the cmployees of the CARB continue to be paid for regulating the conditional outcomes of the events of the future for Earth's climate systerm though being incapable of regulating these outcomes. The same is true of the Environmental Protection agency (EPA). Twenty years ago, I warned the EPA that they could not actually regulate Earth's climate system. They ignored me. A consequence is for our state and federal governments to squander enormous amounts of our money and in doing so to weaken the United States against adversaries that include the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
