Dazed and confused about Germany in general and Berlin in particular, Hermann O. (AKA Hermann Observer, AKA Clarsonimus Maximus, AKA Clarsonimus) is a mean, nasty and cynical old expat American who observes the world around him in quiet desperation.
Take a deep breath. It's time for Climate Crisis Fun Fact Number One: There is no Climate Crisis.
The weather is not your fault. The climate (weather over time) is not your fault either. Yes, the climate is changing. It is changing because it has never not changed. But no, the "pollutant" CO2, anthropogenic or otherwise, is not driving this change. The only thing CO2 is driving is plant growth. The narrative you are being fed is false. The causes for climate change are natural. They are natural variabilities, cycles we do not yet fully understand.
How do we know this? We know this because of the historical records our ancestors have left us. We know this because of the physical evidence Nature has left us from the vast, pre-industrial past. We know this through astronomical observation. What we are experiencing has all happened before, only it was normally much worse than it is today. This is why we don't need to worry about slowing down or stopping something we have been conditioned to fret about. These changes can't be stopped, and we can't "save the planet" because the planet doesn't need saving. We only need to see how we can best adapt to these changes, something humankind has already been doing for countless generations.
But how could this be you ask? How could the rest of the world have reached a "consensus" that CO2 is an existential threat when it isn't? Because "consensus" is a political, not a scientific term and those who benefit from this imaginary threat also control public opinion. Certain professions, institutions and industries benefit either directly or indirectly from the CO2 narrative and actively manipulate the public.
They do so by exploiting three well-known human weaknesses:
The first one is fear. Fear is easily planted in the minds of the uninformed. Unfortunately, most of us are highly uninformed. Worse, if no real danger is present, we will search for things to fear. Something inside the human brain is highly receptive to potential danger, apocalyptic warnings included. Climate hysteria satisfies this psychological predisposition.
Our second weakness is our need to conform. Being firmly rooted in strict social hierarchies, humans have a primal need to belong. This need is so great that we would rather defy our own eyes than be banned as social outcasts.
Weakness number three is our anthropocentrism. We innately feel that human beings are the center of the universe and can somehow control Nature. Neither are true, of course, and this line of thinking only leads to hubris, narcissism, megalomania, and harmful decision-making. We lack humility, in other words.
Humility is a good thing, however. And this book is an exercise in humility. It is a modest attempt to confront today's presumptuous CO2 Climate Crisis "consensus" with uncommon common sense. It is a compelling collection of well-documented facts and unconventional observations that question today's "climate science" status quo. It reveals how a lack of critical thinking, extreme bias, heavy-handed fear mongering, mass indoctrination methods and quasi-religious fervor have trapped us in a straitjacket of Orwellian groupthink.
Hopefully, it is also a reminder that only the individual can think. And that no one can force us to succumb to mass delusion if we choose not to. People who sell fear are the danger. Popular hysteria is the plague of our age, not CO2. It's time to do something about it. May the skepticism be with you.
