Knee Deep in the Fallacy
Tuvalu, located in the South Pacific, is an independent island nation and is a component of the Commonwealth of Nations formerly known as the British Commonwealth.
In 2019, to illustrate how the islands of Tuvalo are sinking due to sea level rise, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres poses in the water just off the main island.
Yet, from the most recent satellite photographs, during the time period from 1971 to 2014, the islands actually grew by 3%. In a research study, lead author Paul Kench of the University of Auckland, New Zealand said, “Satellite and aerial photos showed eight of Tuvalu’s nine atolls and three-quarters of its reef islands increased in size over the last four decades.”
So to give the perception of ocean rise or advance, António Guterres simply walked off the beach, into the water, made an impassioned face and the TIME camera clicked – more than once I would imagine.
In 1988, when climate change was first invented, the population of Tuvalo was 8,800 – today it is 11,300, a growth of over 28%, with no dip in population during that time period so the cover of rising seas, fleeing residents, and disappearing villages is, entirely, a lie. However, the apathy of the average citizen is simply to accept the lie.
Now, the island nations of the world are requesting a global carbon tax with proceeds naturally going to them. They cite the need for climate change reparations. As the fallacious climate monger, the Guardian Newspaper reports, “The world’s most vulnerable countries are preparing to take on the richest economies with a demand for urgent finance – potentially including new taxes on fossil fuels or flying – for the irrecoverable losses they are suffering from the climate crisis, leaked documents show.”
The Guardian continues to use the same old deceitfulness and duplicity to provide false testimony of anthropogenic climate change and virtue signal their caring for people suffering from it worldwide.
Several counties, mostly island nations have prepared a paper for discussion at the United Nations General Assembly meeting. There already has been a general consensus of richer nations paying poorer nations in the Paris Climate Accord and this will be reassessed again at the next (27th) meeting of COP (the United Nations Conference of Parties) in Egypt this November.
It matters not whether damages are real or their cause, needy nations will claim the source of damages as climate change related and ask for reparations from richer nations. With inflation, fuel prices, food prices, food shortages, and 87,000 additional armed IRS agents demanding more revenue, we are now expected to remit carbon and travel taxes to foreign nations.
I link the Guardian chicanery here.
Sea level rise is dependent on ice melt on land. Here is an image of Greenland showing an increase of 500 Gigatons of ice this year 2021–2022 and is gaining going into the winter season of 2022–2023.
Furthermore, as illustrated in the next image and graphic, the ice is increasing in the Antarctic as well.
However, with activist climate change politicians, their media comrades, as well as corrupt regimes that unscrupulously request funds, evidence contrary to their schemes is simply and always neglected. Polar ice has naturally shrunk and advanced throughout the earth’s history.
