OK, I'll keep this short.
We are now many years into the age of climate catastrophes foretold by the sages of yesteryear, yet I'm still wracking my memory hole to find a single prediction that accurately (even sort of) predicted something that then did indeed happen.
Other than COPnn boondoggles of course.
Polar bears are still gambolling in waters too cold to contemplate, New York is still above water (is their latest electoral triumph a wheeze to try to submerge it after all?), and renewables still can't compete with fossil fuels and government-contrived green "support" schemes.
Most such failures can be overlooked but that last one threatens not only our winter comforts but also our nation's prosperity, so we (and the government) overlook it at our peril.
If the person on the Clapham omnibus still has anything left between the ears, then he/she must surely recognise that any "settled science" that routinely fails all of its own predictions really ought not to be trusted even for trivial matters, let alone the destruction of a working energy system in favour of an untried untested and ruinously expensive energy provision that is by its very nature both unreliable and unresponsive to our varying demands?
