Who will rid me of these climate ass-hats?

Today's GREEN CRAP
  Abnormal extreme weather? Just another scare tactic

WHEN the history of the global warming scare comes to be written, a chapter should be devoted to the way the message had to be altered to keep the show on the road. Global warming became climate change so as to be able to take the blame for cold spells and wet seasons as well as hot days. Then, to keep its options open, the movement began to talk about “extreme weather”.

Res Ipsa LoquitorPart of the problem was that some time towards the end of the first decade of the 21st century it became clear that the Earth’s average temperature just was not consistently rising any more,  ... So those who made their living from alarm, and by then there were lots, switched tactics and began to jump on any unusual weather event, whether it was a storm, a drought, a blizzard or a flood, and blame it on man-made carbon dioxide emissions. This proved a rewarding tactic, because people – egged on by journalists – have an inexhaustible appetite for believing in the vindictiveness of the weather gods. The fossil fuel industry was inserted in the place of Zeus as the scapegoat of choice. (Scientists are the priests.)

Those "scientists" aren't, you know, scientist scientists.

Just in time for the hottest days of the year - R-22 non-production will make your A/C too costly to repair . All based on faulty science. The Montreal Protocol was the model for how to use a fake science to screw over developed countries. 'Climate Change' is just round 2.

Hot weather in summer?! Oh the humanity!!

It's getting colder 'cause it's getting warmer... uh, wait... It's getting warmer because it's, uh...

Mike C: I've already been hit with that, this summer. My AC still had a couple months of warranty on it, but because it was an R-22 unit, my warranty had magically been made invalid. The people I called in said it would cost roughly the same to replace the unit as repair it, but I still had to wait ten days in some oppressively muggy weather before I had a working AC unit, again.

Mike C said...

Yeah - we were lucky in that we started on it before it got to this mind numbing muggy heat. We also had a week or so wait for the new unit to come in. On the plus side it gave me something to write about (1000 words a day, done! - at least for yesterday...) Course the other side of that coin is I have the 1.5 hour commute home today in the jeep with the mostly nonexistent A/C - fun times!

Mike C:

Often you can substitute R-407C for R-22. You have to check with the compressor manufacturer though.
