Elon Musk, CLIMATE HYPOCRITE: He flies around on a fuel-guzzling private jet while claiming fossil fuels will destroy the Earth

Back in 2015 Elon Musk was sharing his immense concern about what would happen if “governments continue to rely on fossil fuels.” The founder of Tesla and Space X was, as reported by the Business Insider, especially worried about the two billion people living within 60 miles of a coastline. These folks wouldn’t just lose their homes to the rising seas, they would also lose their nations. In fact, in the world according to Elon Musk, if international governments don’t address climate change, mitigate their carbon footprints and offer incentives for businesses to go greener, the result will be “more displacement and destruction than all the wars in history combined.”

Mighty strong words from a man who has built a multi billion dollar empire, according to the Los Angeles Times, “running companies that make electric cars, sell solar panels and launch rockets into space.” These enterprises were significantly aided by the many green friendly policies which gave Musk at least $4.9 billion from a variety of state and federal government programs; tax credits, tax incentives, direct Treasury Department grants, enormous lease reductions, economic development subsidies, environmental credits and more. When President Trump stood up for climate sanity and U.S. sovereignty by withdrawing from the Paris Accord, poor Elon declared he was done with Trump’s advisory council. But Musk has had plenty of other lucrative reasons to get business done in Washington, according to Breitbart. For all his talk about rising temperatures, Musk spewed plenty of CO2 taking his private jet to Washington ten times to convince The Department of Energy to loan him $465 million in 2010. Just how many trips does Mr. Musk embark on? Do as the Space X founder says, not as he does.

After Musk tweeted his intention to depart from Trump’s council, Ted Cruz (R-TX) jumped into the Twitter fray. Senator Cruz suggested that the Tesla CEO express due diligence with his own carbon footprint and stop flying around the nation in his private jet. Conversely, the finance reporters over at Money.Cnn.com appear to be fawning over the man who dared to depart from President Trump’s councils:

“This is a bold move from a man who has a lot of skin in the game.”

For all of Musk’s business acumen and technological prowess, it’s fascinating that he would be so ignorant of the importance of Co2 to all life on earth, as well as the myriad of well researched scientific facts concerning the sun’s influence on the earth’s weather systems and the global climate science debate.

Is his fear of the Earth’s imminent extinction overloading his brain’s rational circuits? According to The Guardian, Musk has said he “has no other purpose than to make life interplanetary.” His ambitious plans for a mission to Mars is in high gear; travel is projected to begin in 2022. Current cost per person is estimated to be $10 billion. Maybe there’s a government subsidy for that. As for fuel, he plans to synthesize it on Mars from water and carbon dioxide. Hmmmm.

Space X is also launching the “Air Force’s secret X-37B uncrewed space plane” in the late summer of 2017. According to Yahoo.news, in order to compete for these lucrative contracts, Space X had to sue the government. Mr. Musk’s perspective may be too interplanetary to recall that old adage about not biting the hand that feeds you.

Al Gore wants $15 trillion dollars (yes, TRILLION) to fight imaginary climate change

Some things never go away, as much as you may want them too.

Bad pennies; the odor of dog stuff on your shoe after you step in a steaming pile; the Clintons; Al Gore.

As for the latter, the former vice president has figured out how much money he’ll need to finally rid the world of its “climate change” problem.

Fifteen trillion dollars. That’s $15,000,000,000,000. What’s even funnier – or sadder, depending on how you look at it – Gore says that amount of money does “not pose a major macroeconomic challenge.”

Riiight. (Related: Read Al Gore’s 2007 prediction that all arctic ice would be gone by 2014 now proven to be alarming fear mongering.)

As reported by The Daily Caller, Gore is part of a new organization – the Energy Transitions Commission – comprised of executives who are committed to fighting “global warming” and “climate change” that they insist, as do all hoaxers, is being caused by human activity.

The group has just published a new report claiming that if countries would only pony up $600 billion a year, collectively, for the next 20 years, then that would fund green energy development and improved energy efficient infrastructure.

In addition, the report says “additional investments of around $300-$600 billion per annum do not pose a major macroeconomic challenge” in attempting to meet the climate change objectives laid out in the Paris Accords that the Trump administration is considering abandoning because they penalize rich industrial nations.

Now, it appears, Gore wants to do the same thing using Karl Marx’s socialist playbook – rob from the rich and redistribute to the poor, which is precisely how this scheme would work.

The Daily Caller notes further:

ETC is made up of energy executives, activist leaders and investment bankers, including former Vice President Al Gore, who would no doubt get a piece of the trillions of dollars they are calling for.

ETC’s goal is to “accelerate change towards low-carbon energy systems that enable robust economic development” and limit global warming. ETC’s report comes out as the Trump administration considers whether or not to stay party to the Paris agreement, which went into effect in 2016.

Speaking of Gore and his bank account, the former VP has done quite well for himself since leaving the West Wing. When he filed public financial disclosure forms during his failed 2000 presidential bid, his net worth was somewhere in the neighborhood of $700,000 to $1.9 million. Today it’s around $300 million, thanks to selling his stake in Current TV, a failed Left-wing cable network, to Al Jazeera, and other investments. Gore’s most recent claim to fame was an ill-sourced, wholly inaccurate “documentary” film called “An Inconvenient Truth,” a baseless piece of global warming propaganda that had more holes in it than the current U.S.-Mexico border fence.

Nevertheless, it is upon this false premise that Gore and the ETC now want to fleece rich nations and enrich themselves financially and through heightened political relevance and status.

But in the Age of Trump, who appointed Scott Pruitt, a major skeptic of the cult-like belief that human activity is causing the planet to warm, to head up the EPA, and who is considering ditching the Paris Accords, Gore has become more irrelevant than ever. (Related: Read Al Gore, Big Government Eco-Charlatan Who Is Poised To Become World’s First ‘Carbon Billionaire’.)

That said, there are certainly some forces – many unexpected – that are pushing Trump to keep the U.S. abiding in the Paris Accords, even though it was agreed to by President Obama and not sent to the U.S. Senate for ratification as a treaty, like it was supposed to be.

One of those forces is Shell Oil Co. – yes, Shell Oil – which is a major producer of natural gas, believed to be the alternative fuel of choice in combating emissions. Shell is even helping to fund the ETC.

But there’s more here than meets the eye. The Daily Caller notes that Shell is hawking increased natural gas use as a way to curb atmospheric emissions; the ETC’s report targets coal emissions, calling for “a rapid decrease in unabated coal consumption, a peak of oil in the 2020s and a continued role for gas provided methane leakages are reduced significantly.”

Like Gore, it seems, other players involved in the ETC’s plan to filch trillions of dollars from the national treasuries of rich nations have alternative motives other than “the environment.”

Fake science TV personality Bill Nye goes berserk when REAL scientist schools him on carbon dioxide

In case you still thought that TV personality Bill Nye was a real “science guy,” this ought to disabuse you of that belief.

In a recent interview on uber-Left-wing CNN, where kooks and crackpots like Nye are made to feel right at home, the mechanical engineer (that’s Nye) had a hissy fit when someone with legitimate brain power and knowledge challenged is Marxist orthodoxy regarding so-called “human-caused climate change/global warming.”

As reported by The Blaze, Nye – who gained notoriety during the 1990s with a kid’s “science” program, has since become a full-blown, dyed-in-the-wool convert to the church of global warming hoaxism. In his CNN appearance, he actually accused the network of doing a “disservice” to its viewers because they dared to have on a single dissenting climate change voice. (Related: Bill Nye goes FULL LUNATIC with vulgar transgender music video singing about “moist vagina” and how transgenderism is “evolution”.)

Nye, it seems, would have fit right in with Hitler’s Brown Shirts and propaganda operations, both of which sought to quash dissent and speech, not encourage debate and mutually beneficial solutions.

What’s worse, Nye’s angst was directed at an actual scientist, William Happer, who is a physicist at some obscure Ivy League school called Princeton University. Maybe you’ve heard of it.

Happer’s crime? He dared to call Nye’s bogus promotion of climate change a “myth.”

“There’s this myth that’s developed around carbon dioxide that it’s a pollutant, but you and I both exhale carbon dioxide with every breath,” Happer, who has advised President Donald J. Trump on issues dealing with the climate, said during the interview. “Each of us emits about two pounds of carbon dioxide a day, so are we polluting the planet?”

He went on to note that carbon dioxide “is a perfectly natural gas,” and that, like “water vapor,” it is a compound that is vital to the proliferation of plant life and oxygen-emitting trees. If the carbon dioxide goes away, like Nye and his fellow global warming hoaxers say, then he, they, and the rest of us will die like the planet.

Plants “grow better with more carbon dioxide, and you can see the greening of the earth already from additional carbon dioxide in the atmosphere,” Happer, the real scientist, noted.

Oh, but Nye, the ‘expert,’ countered by saying that the physicist he was debating did not get that the “rate,” or speed, of carbon dioxide introduction into the atmosphere was the real issue. Then he denigrated the network for daring to have this guy Happer on in the first place.

“And I will say, much as I love CNN, you’re doing a disservice by having one climate change skeptic and not 97 or 98 scientists or engineers concerned about climate change,” he said.

Oh. Thanks for clearing that up, “science guy.”

In any event, Happer was asked why he doubted the global warming claptrap, and he responded that it’s not an honest construct to begin with.

“Let me point out that science is not like passing a law,” he began. “You don’t have a vote to say how many are for the law of gravity and how many are against – it’s based on observations.

“And if you observe what’s happening to, for example, the temperature,” he continued, “it’s not rising nearly as fast as the alarmist computer models predicted. It’s much, much less — factors of two or three less. So the whole basis for the alarmism is not true, it’s based on flawed computer modeling.” (Related: U.N. official actually ADMITS that ‘global warming’ is a scam designed to ‘change world’s economic model’.)

That was too much for Nye, who immediately argued, “That’s completely wrong. He’s cherry picking a certain model. The heat ended up in the ocean. This is not controversial in mainstream science, everybody.”

No Bill, you’re wrong. And it’s “not controversial in mainstream science” because mainstream science is replete with the same kind of ‘church of global warming faithful’ that you belong to. But consensus of Left-wing opinion does not a scientific conclusion make, Science Guy.

In fact, none of the alarmist predictions about ice caps melting and entire continents becoming submerged under ocean water have come true – or are even close to coming true, given that “warming” has not taken place for some 18 years, in sum.

And here’s another question for Science Guy: If human-caused warming/climate change is real, how come all the “mainstream science” agencies feel compelled to manipulate climate data?

See the video here, and ask yourself how the idiots at CNN can give more credence to a snake-oil salesman than a bona fide climate scientist.

How can Bill Nye understand anything about science when he can’t even understand the U.S. Constitution?

Bill Nye “The Science Guy” has run one of the most successful scams in the history of the country. People really do believe his knowledge of science is beyond reproach.

It’s not like he doesn’t come with credentials. A mechanical engineer by trade, he earned a bachelor of science from Cornell University in 1977 after graduating from the exclusive Sidwell Friends school in Washington, D.C.

But when it comes to non-politicized science – and views on politics – Nye is anything but unbiased, and frankly, scientists are supposed to be neutral. Also, he has no formal scientific training – just a kids-based “science” show he hosted in the 1990s. (RELATED: UN official actually ADMITS that ‘global warming’ is a scam designed to ‘change world’s economic model’)

Nye is a dyed-in-the-wool believer in the global warming hoax despite being proven wrong time and time again. He’s also no constitutionalist.

In recent days Nye – always pushing for Left-wing “science” causes – claimed the Constitution backed concerns by thousands of scientists and environmental activists who took to the streets in several cities during Earth Day to yell about the Trump administration’s proposed cuts to several federal agencies, including those that dole out grant money for research, as reported by The Daily Caller.

“If you suppress science, if you pretend climate change isn’t a real problem, you will fall behind other countries that do invest in science, that do invest in basic research,” Nye said during an interview with CNN during the “March for Science” protests.

The main march for science took place in Washington, D.C., of course, and Nye spoke there at a rally that was attended by thousands carrying signs that impugned so-called “climate skeptics” and warned that any cuts to the EPA and other federal agencies would doom the United States, if not the planet at large.

Then Nye said this: “And it is interesting to note, I think, that Article 1 Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution refers to the progress of science and the useful arts.

“Useful arts in the 18^th century usage would be what we call engineering or city planning or architecture,” he added.

Nye, The Daily Caller reported, told Vox pretty much the same thing in 2015, but the media outlet did not hold him to account or fact-check him.

“So if you’re a politician looking to derail the progress of science, I think you’re not doing your job,” he continued.

Nye is referring to the section of nation’s founding document that lists the scope of the Legislative Branch’s power (see it here). Further, the “Science Guy” appears to be referencing a provision of Art. 1, Sect. 8 stating that one of Congress’ powers is “to promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries…”

What that passage means and what Nye thinks it means are two different things.

The provision was established to give inventors, authors and creators copyrights and patents for their work, so that it could not be stolen and replicated (for profit) by others. It has nothing at all to do with requiring Congress to fund scientific research and development. And though government funding of R&D does occur, the level of funding varies by industry.

In addition, there is a case to be made that much government funding of “science” is nothing more than huge slush funds for politically correct “research” designed to support premeditated conclusions (like, say, regarding global warming/climate change). Time and again, as Natural News has reported, most of this research is faked anyway – again to support a preconceived conclusion that “climate change is settled science” (then why keep studying it?). (RELATED: Scott Pruitt may be just the person freedom lovers need at EPA)

I would say that Nye should stick to just plain science instead of political science, but he’s got no better record of accuracy there, either.
