Greenfolk Deny Science Tying Climate Shifts to Sunspot Activity

Posted by Rajjpuut's Folly on Wednesday, September 02, 2009 4:30:16 AM
                  In recent months excited astronomers, meteorologists and other scientists have tied sunspot activity, or lack thereof, to long-term climate shift. Global-warming activists aren’t buying any of that . . . can’t have real science upsetting our superstitions, can we? It’s kind of upsetting to environmentalists that the last 10-12 years have actually been cooler, well far cooler, than they expected and the culprit?

                 Lack of sunspot activity!

                Could that be true? Well, if we have a very cold winter in 2009, scientists wouldn’t be too surprised. Just this year we fell only a few days short of setting a record. After 51 days without solar flares, one came along and prevented sun observers from enjoying an occurrence that hadn’t occurred in 96 years.   The record was almost broken in 2008 as well. According to the profs, sunspots via magnetic activation of the stratosphere on planet Earth make things warmer.

                But, of course, the global-warming faithful are all about faith, not about science. When Rajjpuut mentioned this to a liberal fellow, he said, “That’s bullsh_t and you know it’s bullsh_t!” Imagine that . . . his devotion to pseudo-science is so strong that truth can’t be allowed to upset his religious services. Won’t say he was foaming at the mouth, that would be an insult to merely rabid creatures. 

                Hardly, shocking. The green-nuts grabbed hold of Rachel Carson’s lying little tome “Silent Spring” with its unsubstantiated claims and half-baked notions as if it were the original word of God. As a result DDT has been banned for about 27 years now and 54 million people have died of malaria around the globe. DDT can be drunk and/or used as salad dressing without ill effect, none too tasty, however. It has never been proven to cause harm to any vertebrate (backboned) creature. It does NOT change DNA in animals or make birds’ eggshells thinner.  But if you talk to a greenie banning DDT was the greatest success so far for their movement. Sorry to confuse Ya’all with the facts . . . idjets!

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

How to Refute Environmental Quackery ON THE SPOT

Posted by Rajjpuut's Folly on Thursday, July 09, 2009 9:32:13 PM
Enviromentalist lie and will say any ridiculous untrue thing to get their way, they do not understand real science and real science is their enemy.
DDT has been shown to be an ANTI-carcinogen in rats and never hurt a single bird or bird's egg or a single person.
The DDT BAN:  Killed 50 Million People since the publication of "Silent Spring" led to the banning of DDT. 
 
                  President Obama wants the third world to spend money on green technology, but I'm guessing the third world is getting too smart for him.  African nations seeing the wondrous effect of DDT in 2004 in stopping malaria deaths have turned their back on the U.N. DDT Ban:  in Uganda, Minister of Health Brigadier Jim Muhwezi has renewed house spraying in the most malarious areas, with the approval of the Ugandan Cabinet. Muhwezi dismissed the critics of DDT, saying, "How many people must die of malaria while these debates continue? If DDT can save lives, why not use it as we wait for the alternatives," as reported in the Kampala newspaper, New Vision, on April 27. Muhwezi also noted that the country of Mauritius was about to be declared malaria free because of its use of DDT.
 
               If the developed world wants to waste its resources on illusive green dreams, the third world knows what counts most:  human lives and the pursuit of human happiness and then you can think about liberty.  The third world doesn't have time for daydreams based upon false representations of pseudo-science.
 
Here's the rest of that African story: 
 
Here's the skinny on the exact nature of  Rachel Carson's deceptions:
 
             . . . we can only hope that Rachel Carson spends the afterlife in environmental hell with the anopheles mosquito to comfort her . . . .
 
            At the same time, the pseudo-environmentalists were going wild against DDT. Clifton Curtis of the World Wildlife Fund, for example, wrote that “DDT is so potent that as long as it is used anywhere in the world, nobody is safe”—and provided no data to back up his assertion. Dr. Gilbert L. Ross, of the American Council on Science and Health, characterized Curtis’s remarks as “typical of the dangerous environmental disinformation masquerading as science that has been stirring DDT hysteria ever since the 1960s.” Ross pointed out that “Extensive scientific studies have not found any harm to humans, even during the massive overuse of DDT in agriculture in the 1950s and 60s.” Furthermore, the scientific reports show that there is no indication of DDT use harming people, birds, bird eggshells, or other vertebrate animals.16
 
http://www.21stcenturysciencetech.com/articles/Fall02/Mosquitoes.html   treats the book by J. Gordon Edwards, PhD. who would drink DDT on stage before every lecture attacking Rachel Carson and pseudo-scientific environmentalism.  Here's how it starts . . . .
 
 
 


Anopheles, the mosquito that carries malaria, which today kills 2 to 3 million people a year. 
(Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization )
During the war in Europe, in 1944, we went to sleep every night while being fed upon by bedbugs and fleas, and there was no way to escape them. We had also heard about “cooties” (body lice) causing typhus, which killed more than 3 million people in Europe and vicinity during and after World War I.

One day, I was ordered to dust every soldier in our company with an insecticidal powder that had just been received. For two weeks I dusted the insecticide on soldiers and civilians, breathing the fog of white dust for several hours each day. The body lice were killed, and the DDT persisted long enough to kill young lice when they emerged from the eggs.

Fortunately, no human beings have ever been harmed by DDT. I later learned that the material was produced by a German chemist, Othmar Zeidler, in 1874. He had made hundreds of chemical compounds but he never suggested uses for any of them. Sixty years later, in Switzerland in 1939, Dr. Paul Müller was seeking chemicals that might kill insect pests, and he followed Zeidler’s written directions for preparing several compounds. One of them was a compound that Zeidler had labelled dichlorodiphenyl-trichloroethane. Müller called it “DDT,” and in 1948, he received the Nobel Prize for his work with that chemical.

Dr. Joseph Jacobs later described his role in producing the first DDT made in the United States. At Merck & Company in New Jersey, he was assigned the task of duplicating Zeidler’s procedure, but on a much larger scale. He commandeered a huge glass-lined reactor, and produced the first 500 pounds of DDT made in the United States. An Army truck rushed it to an airport, and it was flown to Italy, where it halted a developing epidemic of typhus in our troops. The Surgeon General telegrammed thanks from President Roosevelt, and stating: “It is estimated that 5,000 lives were probably saved by destroying the typhus-carrying body lice infesting our soldiers.”1

After the war, I entered Ohio State University to study entomology. Insects are the most abundant forms of life on Earth; fortunately, only about 1 percent of them compete with human beings for food, fiber, and space. A small part of that 1 percent threatens our health with stings or bites, and a few transmit serious diseases.

I received my Ph.D. for research on beetles, and was hired to teach entomology at San Jose State University in California. There I spent much time studying parasitic insects, and taught medical entomology courses for more than 30 years. In addition to louse-borne typhus, our students were required to learn about diseases caused by mites, ticks, fleas, kissing bugs, black flies, chiggers, sand flies, eye gnats, tsetse flies, and mosquitoes.
 
At least 80 percent of human infectious diseases are arthropod-borne—transmitted by insects, mites, or ticks.2 They have caused the death of hundreds of millions of people by infecting them with the pathogens that cause typhus, bubonic plague, yellow fever, malaria, dengue fever, sleeping sickness, encephalitis, elephantiasis, leishmaniasis, and yaws. During the 1960s, the World Health Organization proposed the possible eradication of malaria, worldwide, and malaria control was achieved in areas with a population of 279 million people. Thirty-six formerly malarious countries totally eradicated the disease. The U.S. National Academy of Sciences stated in 1970:
To only a few chemicals does man owe as great a debt as to DDT. In little more than two decades DDT has prevented 500 million human deaths, due to malaria, that would otherwise have been inevitable. . . . 17

Mass Global 'Worming’ Last Best Hope for Planet

Posted by Rajjpuut's Folly on Monday, July 06, 2009 10:15:10 PM
 
Green Leaders Embrace

Cult-Suicide Tactic

 

            Citing the extremely long and drawn out character of virtually all green actions and contemplated actions around the globe, environmentalist leaders meeting today in Jonestown, Guyana embraced a new “strage-tactic”: encouraging cult-suicide as mankind’s “best hope for environmental integrity.”   “It’s the only way to fly,” said Green Paws President-Elect William “Wild-Bill Kill ‘em all” Thompsen.   Thompsen said, instead of "speechifying and preparing and preparing for one big environmental showdown, every little thing we do from now on removes the stain of mankind from the planet and increases ‘global worming’,” the environmental catch phrase for  rubbing out humanity and turning them all into worm-feed.

The green leaders’ choice of site was, of course, greatly symbolic. Bob Redfart, green movie star and director of the environmental classic “A River Ran Over Them,” summed up the thinking of the assembled eco-peawits in South America, “Look it took 47 years to get malaria back to doing its job (killing two million people annually), who’s got that kind of time? The folks here in ’78 showed the world how it’s down. Sip-sip-sip and just like that you immediately return your self to nature and erase the carbon footprints of 900, say a thousand people that quickly . . .” as he snapped his fingers and segued into an impromptu break-dance, "You just can't count on mosquitoes to be efficient, can you?"
 
“The trouble is,” Redfart continued, “. . . folks in leadership roles like me and Boobs (referring to Boobra Tricebanned nearby) should really have the honor of showing the folks how to do it, but then if we did, who’s gonna lead the movement, who’s gonna prevent back-sliding. Unfortunately, we’ll probably have to start with some ultra-right wing church group that would vote against ‘The Fulfillment’ anyway,” he sighed, “Logistically, it’s a sad fact but we Greenies are gonna have to go last.” “The Fulfillment” is a green movement term for what National Socialists in Germany called the “Final Solution” but aimed at all of annoying environmentally-dangerous mankind rather than just one select group. “It’s gonna be glorious, just Eden all over again and the snake can babble all he wants, no one eats off the tree of environmental corruption.”
