Another Absurd Tipping Point

By -
On October 25, in the runup to last week's global warming meeting in Scotland, I explained:

A few minutes ago, we saw a perfect example on CBS "Sunday Morning." Big Climate's formidable public relation arm created a video with a dinosaur addressing the United Nations. Even though it had a number of factual errors, was highly effective propaganda. It ended with the following absurdity:


In the above, 2030 is another global warming "tipping point," the first of which was published in 1989! Here's a list a published in 2013.
These are designed to give a false sense of urgency with regard to global warming. They are always set a few years into the future with the hope you will forget about them when they pass without the forecast catastrophe. 

The prescription that came from the COP26 meeting calls for nations to dig up 120 billion tons of materials -- including rare earth minerals -- for ineffective windmills. This will be an ecological disaster of almost unimaginable proportions!!

We can fix the problem with nuclear energy and hydroelecric energy. But, the straightforward solution does not allow the opportunities for power and graft that keeping the issue alive does. So, if we continue on our present course, we will kill our standard of living and our liberty, while making environmental problems worse.

The brown area has a significant risk of tornadoes. Remember: if a tornado warning is issued, go to your basement and get under heavy furniture like a pool table. Of, if your basement is finished, get into the bathroom. Go ahead an put a couple of water bottles and, if appropriate, diapers in your shelter area. Wear shoes.  If you don't have a basement or safe room, go to the lowest floor and get into a bath or closet in the middle of your home. Children should be put in the bathtub.  I'll update later today.

Note: An Updated Forecast is Available HERE Freezing Rain The National Weather Service has now issued winter weather advisories, two warnings and a watch. It may be a bit too large but, when it comes to freezing rain and slick roads, caution is usually the better course of action.  Here's a color code: Deep purple is an ice storm warning; serious condition where power outages are possible. Pink is a winter storm warning for significant icing. Deep green is a winter storm watch. I don't know why this is still a watch. If I were on the forecast desk I would have a winter storm warning for icing.  Dark blue is a winter weather advisory, a lesser condition, for icing.  Here is a view of the entire watch/warning/advisory area. The small area of green in Illinois is for flooding and, in Nebraska, for snow.  Here is a forecast of freezing rain amounts; totals to 6am Tuesday.  Color codes: Yellow is 0.25 to 0.50 inches. Power outages may occur in this areas. Deep blue is 0.1 to .25 inc
