They did a great job burying this HUGE story. Turns out we are in a several million year cold spell and nothing bad will happen if we get a bit warmer. Go to the WaPo article to see all the graphics
Personally, I would rather be warm than cold and have plenty of CO2 for food plants to grow nicely. And I don't want a beach house or a house in a flood plain. I do like a fireplace or wood stove, and I don't like wind turbines all over the landscape. So there.
Don't worry, carbon climate action is just a false narrative to make our lives miserable. We are the carbon they want to reduce! ... to reduce the population to 500 million as written in the masonic Georgia guidestones:
There is definitely a man-made Climate Crisis, but it has nothing to do with so-called greenhouse gases, and everything to do with satellites, balloons and ground stations causing artificial drought by dissolving clouds with EMFs, and of course, other geoengineering techs such as chem-trails, so even if some would not agree on Anthropogenic Global Warming, everyone should be against Carbon Climate Action!:
Climategate - Leaked E-mails Expose the Scam of "Climate Change"
By the way, the studies cited by the Washington Post:
Published in the “prestigious” Science: “Earth’s temperature has varied between 11° and 36°C over the past 485 million years. ... Tropical temperatures range between 22° and 42°C, refuting the idea of a fixed upper limit on tropical warmth and suggesting that ancient life … endure extreme heat.” 1
Did the Washington Post article add the rebound mini-tiny-jockey-stick for this century, which was not present in the original study?:
It was based on the most comprehensive climate database and published by the “prestigious” Nature: “PhanSST, a database containing over 150,000 data points from five proxy systems that can be used to estimate past sea surface temperature. The geochemical data have a near-global spatial distribution and temporally span most of the Phanerozoic. Each proxy value is associated with consistent and queryable metadata fields, including information about the location, age, and taxonomy of the organism from which the data derive.” 2

We bipedal apes only go back about 6 million years, and the last 500,000 years has been most formative, but that is still a range to the hotter side. How do you do without AC, heat and city utilities?
I'll die much sooner like that.
We have become pretty fragile, those of us reading this.
I’m sorry. I don’t mean to seem arrogant, but this was evident a couple decades ago. The scam to me has been evident for several decades. I’m just glad people are realizing it. What a shame our government has been terrifying our youth, grooming them to be good little Dems, for generations. I was 19 when I thought the world was over as we knew it, air, water, endangered fish, wonderful excuses for discouraging intelligent, well managed growth and infrastructural improvements. Instead they frittered generations of children, spent taxpayer money, marching in lock step toward a Communist style government. And where has it gotten us. Poverty, invading voters, crime and a twilight zone creation “they” were responsible for. The lying, the engineering, we all know what they have put us through. Let’s just pray the black pill Gullibles and the “on the fence” Gullibles and the “Christian Gullibles will do the right thing.
A case of the pot calling the kettle black! Fundamental Christians, like me, are not "gullible" goofs, that have no (true) science supporting their Christian world-views. There has been inexplicable evidence in masse in support of a "young earth" from nearly every discipline out there. Scientists which have no axe to grind and are of the age of retirement, (unthreatened with disbarment) are showing up openly and admitting they too were sold a bad bill of goods and they believed it all until shown the truth scientifically speaking. When referring to the world as being "millions or billions of years old," it only goes to show how deeply the false narrative has set its roots.
It would like to be able to point to Christian scientists and experts in the varied fields, as those who have dysfunctional genomes or some other derogatory claim, but this is as far from the reality as the East is from the West.
"The right thing" as you say, is to do the Creator's will, and keep His Commandments.
There is a distinct reason for having the proper view of the truth supporting a "young earth" position. In essence, if one believes that all that we see, feel, touch, and discover in our physical world has come about in a naturalistic way, with no guidance whatsoever, (brainwashed by the montra of the claimed millions or billions of years) his or her mind-steps will join in the blazed philosophical trails which are established as untenable and anti-scientific; boldly countering the laws of physics.
But with the "arm" of propaganda throughout the educational system from grade 1 onward, and now both parents being absent to counter such non-sense, who would wonder concerning a child's impressionable mind being misled? 'Not their fault.
Repair or restructuring is often more difficult in that a clean foundational starting point must first be had. Folks will sometimes not welcome truth when it disrupts or dislodges decades of "learning" a promoted narrative. Imagine how hard it is for those in the med industry to be forced to face the truth about the plannedemic! Similarly, geologists have two choices from which to make assumptions regarding the age of the earth: "Have I been duped, or not?" What does the evidence support?
Looking into one discipline at a time can, and will, like steps when scientifically illuminated, lead the minds of the searcher back to realism. Rocks don't bend without breaking, gas clouds do not "come together" and form a solid, beauty, symmetry, and organization does not come out of an "explosion," and the list is endless. The biological world is even much more of a conundrum for the false scientific community to deal with! ('talk about believing in magic!) It would be worthy of a joke if it were not so serious in its consequence. We who know this to be true, must speak out!
At the end of the day, when the pot is boiled down to its solids, we come to the realization that a dark and dangerous force is at work for our destruction. We also learn that there is a GOOD entity (called God) that desires EVERYONE to be saved, but honors the free will of those who choose to refuse redemption. So, it's not just a matter of physics or geography, or even biology. It is a matter of WORSHIP, and who will receive it from whom: given to God the creator, or Satan the deceiver.
Never the less, the journey one undertakes in the discovery of all that we see, feel, touch and discover is a mind-blowing tornado of Truth which is fun to partake of.
This is a globalist undertaking, not just American leftists doing evil things. Dr. Nass has written extensively on this in other areas of her substack. The enormity of the plan is too overwhelming for many people to grasp. They either cannot believe what is happening in front of them or prefer to keep their heads in the proverbial sand. If you have not seen them, look up the UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and try to imagine how each can be used for massive death and destruction and you will be right. We are heading towards near total slavery or total depopulation of the human race. The most frightening thought is that it is very doable and is in motion now and our leaders are signing us into compliance.
So give up and put them on the chopping block? Oh there’s Santa boys and girls and you be going “yeah but he’s fat, wears too much red and way too jolly”. In other words, you’re despising the wrong thing.
"Let’s just pray the black pill Gullibles and the “on the fence” Gullibles and the “Christian Gullibles will do the right thing."
Yeah, but 9/11 happened more than 23 years ago, and the vaxxine was rolled out almost four years ago, and they still don't get it. Don't hold your breath waiting for them to do the right thing as you call it.
I was born in 1957 and still recall being told at some point in grade school that we could be entering a new “ice age”. There was talk of spreading ash in the atmosphere to hold the heat in. I recall thinking that was kind of a stupid idea. Then again in the early 70’s talk of an ice age.
The deep fake state loves its lies. One would think they would feel ashamed, instead they double down on the lies.
I think you will appreciate the bet at the bottom of my post below: People like Paul Ehrlich predicted by 1990 we would be freezing in the dark. I don't know about you but civilization seems to have survived the 90s, oughts 10s and 20s just fine.
I have posted this in a couple of other substacks. I think it bears spreading far and wide.
For those who claim depopulation is needed so we can manage to feed the population I point out that the Dutch can already feed 10 times as many people per acre of land than most of the rest of the world. Adopting their techniques will ensure that the world's population will not go hungry in spite of the forecasted increases (assuming WEF style plots do not intervene). Projections show the world population will slowly increase until appx. 2065 whereupon it will start to decrease as people have become more educated and want smaller families more like in the developed counties, many of which are now already below replacement. World population peak estimates vary but do not exceed 12 billion (compared to today's 8 billion, not much of an increase).
Another way to look at this is the "Simon - Ehrlich wager" of some 40 years ago. In 1968, Ehrlich published "The Population Bomb", which argued that mankind was facing a demographic catastrophe with the rate of population growth quickly outstripping growth in the supply of food and resources. Simon was highly skeptical of such claims, so proposed a wager, telling Ehrlich to select any raw material he wanted and select "any date more than a year away," and Simon would bet that the commodity's price on that date would be lower than what it was at the time of the wager. Ehrlich and his colleagues picked five metals that they thought would undergo big price increases: chromium, copper, nickel, tin, and tungsten. Then, on paper, they bought $200 worth of each, for a total bet of $1,000, using the prices on September 29, 1980, as an index. They designated September 29, 1990, 10 years hence, as the payoff date. If the inflation-adjusted prices of the various metals rose in the interim, Simon would pay Ehrlich the combined difference. If the prices fell, Ehrlich et al. would pay Simon. Between 1980 and 1990, the world's population grew by more than 800 million, the largest increase in one decade in all of history. But by September 1990, the price of each of Ehrlich's selected metals had fallen. Chromium, which had sold for $3.90 a pound in 1980, was down to $3.70 in 1990. Tin, which was $8.72 a pound in 1980, was down to $3.88 a decade later. As a result, in October 1990, Paul Ehrlich mailed Julian Simon a check for $576.07 to settle the wager in Simon's favor.
To add context to the wager, I am an engineer and it is well known that progress in plastics has reduced the need for metals. Linings of tin can interior for example was changed from tin to plastics in this interval. Similarly expensive metal additives such as nickle and chromium used to enhance steel strength were replaced with Boron and other low cost additives that improved steel microstructure.
ie If the price was $10 in 1980 and $12 in 1990 with an inflation of 50% then the price corrected back to the index year would be $12/1.5 = $8. Inflation was high in the 1980's.
I would lord the fact that I'm one year older than you, except for the probability that you're most likely way smarter and observant than me, especially back in the school-years! The "they would feel ashamed" quote is pretty damning, and revealing as to which entity they are directed by. A liar, when asked if he is telling the truth will ALWAYS say, "Yes!
For now, anyway, they have the advantage. Soon it will not be.
Christianity's moral code is based on a selfless design, whereas the septic dwellers' "moral code" is one which idolizes and promotes self. Pride, ambition, fame, fortune, indulgence, individually or collectively, dictate their every thought and move. True charity is a threatening concept for them.
Going to the PFS (public fool system) in the 80s, I was scared with movies showing nuclear experiments as well as Nostradamus prediction of the earth burning up. We also watched the NASA shuttle explosion live in class.😑
Yes, they have done a good job keeping it buried. The information has been out there, however. Here's a link to a talk by Patrick Moore I've been attempting to spread on as many climate change articles as possible - which is not many, as on most occasions, I end up being censored. This is a must watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2H0OxmF7fak
The WaPo article is so misleading as to be dishonest. Even though the earth has been hotter than present 87% of the past, return to those temperatures is painted as catastrophic.
The present rate of heating is reported as "unprecedented", but our time resolution in looking at past temperatures is very coarse. If temperatures rose a few degrees in a century, we would not be able to know that with present science.
CO2 is proclaimed as the primary driver of temperature, when in fact CO2 increase FOLLOWS temperature increase most of the time, because the oceans cough up CO2 as they warm.
The WaPo misrepresents the Science article, and misrepresents the graph.
I used to be that person.....the carbon footprint police. I am embarrassed how I fell for it...but many have fallen for it. When Gore had his documentary, I was alarmed, as many were after his scare tactic. It worked. The hockey stick was the center of it all and turned out to be a complete lie. Thank you for sharing this Meryl.
I think I am dumber for reading this Emily person's synopsis of the 'data'. People believe this stuff.
One need only to go further in history to see how utterly insane this climate change narrative is, and how ridiculous it is to think we are influencing warming. I have long thought this narrative is a deflection from the real issues with our ecosystem. It allows polluters to keep polluting. As Catherine AF says: the great poisoning. Nothing to do with oil or gas.
It is astounding how the so called climate / environmental scientists have little understanding of basic science. For example Freezing pint depression/boiling point elevation when water is not pure water. Boyce’s law, Charles’ law, gravity, magnetic fields and planetary alignments on those all,of which contribute to climate, the complex ocean current systems, the complex air circulation systems etc. the fact the the most efficient greenhouse gas is water vapor ( simple example: which equatorial climate has the widest swings in temperature between night and day, an equatorial arid desert or an equatorial humid rain forest? )…. The list goes on. But then again these are not scientists they are agenda dogmatists.
The most efficient greenhouse gas is CO2, not water vapor. This is based on inherent characteristics themselves, but even much more so on the fact that the majority of the CO2 is higher up in the atmosphere, where it will exert much more of a greenhouse gas effect.
Ok lets think about this... Prediction of the weather from what scientists think today is almost completely BS and total speculation.
Here's the thing. The Earth circles the sun BUT the sun circles the galaxy! One rotation of the Sun around the galaxy takes 250 million years! Now, think about gravitational orbits. In space there are no perfect orbits... They are variable! You cannot predict the weather on earth based on the past because the orbit is unknown.
What does this mean... Well it means future climate prediction is nonsense!... Life continues until it doesn't. The impact of humanity is unknown. Humans are a temporary result of the expression of life... I think this will change naturally over time but I think there is no end! Perhaps humans will evolve but the jury is out. I hope we are ultimately enlightened and can servive and engage our consciousness.
Between now and the time slated for Christ's Return, I pray you will get it all sorted out with the help of the H.S. and by prayer and reading of His Word, the Bible.
The left-wing think tank, The Club of Rome, put out a booklet in 1991 called “The First Global Revolution”. In it, on page 75, they mention that in order to achieve their goals of one world government and one world currency they would have to get the whole world on the same side against a common enemy (so they could merge countries and currencies like the case with the EU). They further decided that Global Warming would be the mechanism that helps them achieve that end. This is why so many pushed the lie over 33 years.
We are just a couple of volcanos away from an Ice Age which is what they want. Far more will die in an Ice age than if the planet warms up a little.
Remember how much they were spraying last winter... why spray in winter if this is about global warming, but if it is about setting off a new Ice Age, well then that makes sense... Remember the goal is to kill off 90% of humanity.
Global average is a meaningless mathematical concept that is going up due to nighttime minima rising due to sensor bias from urban heat effects (edit: due to more sensors added over the years in urban areas and influencing the ‘average’) but the maximum temperatures are not going up, which is what matters. Warmer temperatures cause more co2 to be produced not the other way round, human contribution is trivial compared to other sources, and the spectrum of absorbtivity is much more limited than water vapor which absorbs far more. Finally models are only as good as the parameters and fudge that is packed into them (edit: particularly data ‘reanalysis’ which manufactures data for places where no sensors exist) - GIGO, garbage in garbage out.
Edit: I forgot to mention the sun, whose output is so large and has such a major influence on temperature that even minor changes show up. There is an analysis out there that spotted a monthly earth temperature cycle because the moon’s orbit “around” the earth put a wobble into the sun-earth distance that perturbed the Total Solar Irradiance incident upon the earth. Sun and clouds are primary drivers of earth’s temperature.
Just read recently that another variable might be at work here, related to the fading white paint on all those sensors, which over time, skews the measurements towards more warming, due to the sensors absorbing more energy.
Personally, I would rather be warm than cold and have plenty of CO2 for food plants to grow nicely. And I don't want a beach house or a house in a flood plain. I do like a fireplace or wood stove, and I don't like wind turbines all over the landscape. So there.

Yes, I remember in 1970 the big scare was global cooling.
Going to the PFS (public fool system) in the 80s, I was scared with movies showing nuclear experiments as well as Nostradamus prediction of the earth burning up. We also watched the NASA shuttle explosion live in class.😑
Yes, they have done a good job keeping it buried. The information has been out there, however. Here's a link to a talk by Patrick Moore I've been attempting to spread on as many climate change articles as possible - which is not many, as on most occasions, I end up being censored. This is a must watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2H0OxmF7fak
I find it funny that not matter the evidence the Climate Crazies will still see humans as bad actors. That defines a religion!
Cult. Lol
I have often refered to Al Gore as the pope of that church, and Greta Thunberg as the Virgin Mary.
The CO2 Coalition is an excellent source of dependable scientific information about the fraud that is "climate change."
The WaPo article is so misleading as to be dishonest. Even though the earth has been hotter than present 87% of the past, return to those temperatures is painted as catastrophic.
The present rate of heating is reported as "unprecedented", but our time resolution in looking at past temperatures is very coarse. If temperatures rose a few degrees in a century, we would not be able to know that with present science.
CO2 is proclaimed as the primary driver of temperature, when in fact CO2 increase FOLLOWS temperature increase most of the time, because the oceans cough up CO2 as they warm.
The WaPo misrepresents the Science article, and misrepresents the graph.
But those reporters need to keep their jobs, and so do the climate scientists.
Yep. The scam has lasted an AWFULLY long time though: https://breakingviewsnz.blogspot.com/2023/03/dr-susan-pockett-obliterating-climate.html
I used to be that person.....the carbon footprint police. I am embarrassed how I fell for it...but many have fallen for it. When Gore had his documentary, I was alarmed, as many were after his scare tactic. It worked. The hockey stick was the center of it all and turned out to be a complete lie. Thank you for sharing this Meryl.
I think I am dumber for reading this Emily person's synopsis of the 'data'. People believe this stuff.
I like this website too:

One need only to go further in history to see how utterly insane this climate change narrative is, and how ridiculous it is to think we are influencing warming. I have long thought this narrative is a deflection from the real issues with our ecosystem. It allows polluters to keep polluting. As Catherine AF says: the great poisoning. Nothing to do with oil or gas.
Fear mongering for control and Bioengineering the climate .
It is astounding how the so called climate / environmental scientists have little understanding of basic science. For example Freezing pint depression/boiling point elevation when water is not pure water. Boyce’s law, Charles’ law, gravity, magnetic fields and planetary alignments on those all,of which contribute to climate, the complex ocean current systems, the complex air circulation systems etc. the fact the the most efficient greenhouse gas is water vapor ( simple example: which equatorial climate has the widest swings in temperature between night and day, an equatorial arid desert or an equatorial humid rain forest? )…. The list goes on. But then again these are not scientists they are agenda dogmatists.
The most efficient greenhouse gas is CO2, not water vapor. This is based on inherent characteristics themselves, but even much more so on the fact that the majority of the CO2 is higher up in the atmosphere, where it will exert much more of a greenhouse gas effect.
Ok lets think about this... Prediction of the weather from what scientists think today is almost completely BS and total speculation.
Here's the thing. The Earth circles the sun BUT the sun circles the galaxy! One rotation of the Sun around the galaxy takes 250 million years! Now, think about gravitational orbits. In space there are no perfect orbits... They are variable! You cannot predict the weather on earth based on the past because the orbit is unknown.
What does this mean... Well it means future climate prediction is nonsense!... Life continues until it doesn't. The impact of humanity is unknown. Humans are a temporary result of the expression of life... I think this will change naturally over time but I think there is no end! Perhaps humans will evolve but the jury is out. I hope we are ultimately enlightened and can servive and engage our consciousness.
Between now and the time slated for Christ's Return, I pray you will get it all sorted out with the help of the H.S. and by prayer and reading of His Word, the Bible.
God be with you!

The left-wing think tank, The Club of Rome, put out a booklet in 1991 called “The First Global Revolution”. In it, on page 75, they mention that in order to achieve their goals of one world government and one world currency they would have to get the whole world on the same side against a common enemy (so they could merge countries and currencies like the case with the EU). They further decided that Global Warming would be the mechanism that helps them achieve that end. This is why so many pushed the lie over 33 years.
it is a complex web of nasty activities.
Very nice graph - printed and on my wall.
We are just a couple of volcanos away from an Ice Age which is what they want. Far more will die in an Ice age than if the planet warms up a little.
Remember how much they were spraying last winter... why spray in winter if this is about global warming, but if it is about setting off a new Ice Age, well then that makes sense... Remember the goal is to kill off 90% of humanity.
Global average is a meaningless mathematical concept that is going up due to nighttime minima rising due to sensor bias from urban heat effects (edit: due to more sensors added over the years in urban areas and influencing the ‘average’) but the maximum temperatures are not going up, which is what matters. Warmer temperatures cause more co2 to be produced not the other way round, human contribution is trivial compared to other sources, and the spectrum of absorbtivity is much more limited than water vapor which absorbs far more. Finally models are only as good as the parameters and fudge that is packed into them (edit: particularly data ‘reanalysis’ which manufactures data for places where no sensors exist) - GIGO, garbage in garbage out.
Edit: I forgot to mention the sun, whose output is so large and has such a major influence on temperature that even minor changes show up. There is an analysis out there that spotted a monthly earth temperature cycle because the moon’s orbit “around” the earth put a wobble into the sun-earth distance that perturbed the Total Solar Irradiance incident upon the earth. Sun and clouds are primary drivers of earth’s temperature.
Just read recently that another variable might be at work here, related to the fading white paint on all those sensors, which over time, skews the measurements towards more warming, due to the sensors absorbing more energy.
