We get so much bad info on “climate change” and “global warming” that you would think that there was no pushback on this consensus.
The Globalists insist that the world is burning up, it is all because human are burning fossil fuels, and if we don’t reduce our CO2 levels to near extinction numbers, we are all doomed. Many even say we have already passed the point of “no return” and it is now irretrievably set in stone that the earth will “burn up” and presumably, us with it.
The real truth is that the earth is still in the middle of an ICE AGE that began over 2 million years ago and isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. That the earth has either already entered the next cold cycle, is about to, or will within the next 50 to 500 years.

Introduction
The IPCC’s Version of Climate Science is Fundamentally Flawed and Its Articles 1 and 2 Hide Global-Scale Catastrophic Risks
We are led to believe by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), an intergovernmental body of the United Nations, through its advice to governments, that greenhouse gas emissions caused by human activity constitute the dominant cause of recent global warming.1 This global warming message is being used to direct a risk mitigation strategy designed to keep the 21st century global mean temperature increase below a certain threshold, based on specific emissions reduction scenarios.2,3 The IPCC’s laudable intent is to motivate a needed switch of the world’s energy system to renewable energy, and to move humans toward living sustainably.
The IPCC’s scientific paradigm entrenching Articles 1 and 2 has dictated the IPCC’s strategic and politicized version of climate change since its founding in 1988. The IPCC’s version of climate change is not a scientific consensus, but existed from the outset in its founding articles.4,5 The climate science field outside of anthropogenic global warming has identified several alternative climate risk factors that the IPCC has chosen not to bring to the public’s attention, most likely to prevent the undermining of its political agenda.
Surprisingly, the IPCC’s climate risk assessment dismissed, ignored, or
failed to review the natural climate risks associated with climate-forcing
volcanism,6 the current grand solar minimum,7 and the prospect of rapid
climate change.8,9 Solar scientists expert in climate change have warned in a
consensus-like manner that the current grand solar minimum, or low solar
activity phase, will lead to Little Ice Age-like conditions in the decades ahead.10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17
The IPCC’s risk assessment also dismissed or ignored the plethora of climate-related human catastrophes that occurred throughout the Little Ice Age (13th–19th centuries).18,19,2021,22 The Little Ice Age climate catastrophes included large magnitude volcanic eruptions like Rinjani (1257) and
Tambora (1815), which devastated global agriculture and caused widespread human catastrophes.23,24,25,26,27 On two occasions during the Little Ice Age, China lost nearly half its population,28 while Europe lost about one-third of its population in the 14th century. These climate-related catastrophes included famines, epidemics, and wars.
This book promotes the urgent need to prepare the world, not for global warming, but for a 21st century switch to a global cooling phase. This climate switch will be associated with catastrophic risks linked to the impact of colder climates and precipitation extremes (drought, rainfall, snow) on agriculture. We now live in an era of enhanced risk for climate-forcing volcanic eruptions that, if they occur, will rapidly cool the planet and trigger glacier ice expansion. Increased earthquake risks are also likely. Linked to this cold climate switch and grand solar minimum is the enhanced prospect of pandemic flu, something to which humans are highly vulnerable.
To provide context for the above, some of these historic cooling phase switches since the Holocene Climate Optimum 8,000 years ago were termed rapid climate change events.29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38 These events were associated with the collapse of several ancient civilizations. Centennial- scale (100 plus years) Arctic ice accumulation and its associated Little Ice Age and rapid climate change cannot simply be dismissed, given the evidence for it.39,40,41,42,43
Polar ice cores retrieved by scientists reveal the peak in the Holocene interglacial temperature occurred 8 and 10.5 millennia ago in the Arctic and Antarctic respectively. This means earth actually entered the current Ice Age 8 and 10.5 millennia ago in the Arctic and Antarctic respectively.44,45,46Since the Holocene Climate Optimum 8,000 years ago, the Greenland ice core declined in an oscillating manner to its lowest temperature trough by 1700 (a 4.90C decline), before increasing to 2016’s global warming sub- peak.47
By 1880, or the start of the modern instrument era for recording global temperatures and the period used by the IPCC to begin its anthropogenic global warming story, the Greenland ice core temperature was still 3.60C lower than at the Holocene Climate Optimum.48 Despite being told recent
temperatures are the highest on record,49 the temperature was actually 20C to
40C higher in the Arctic during the Holocene Climate Optimum than it is today.50,51,52
It is important to keep in mind that current global warming trends peaked in 2016, but this temperature peak was still about 20C lower than at the Holocene Climate optimum 8,000 years ago.53 To give you some perspective, the Greenland GISP2 ice core registered a temperature rise of 24.50C from the last glacial maximum (coldest trough) 24,000 years ago to the Holocene Climate Optimum (warmest peak) 8,000 years ago.54 This means that by 1700 CE, the ice core had actually dropped about 20 percent of its full decline for one glacial cycle, and we were at about 8 percent of the full temperature decline of one glacial cycle in 2016.
We are completely disoriented as regards what stage of the glacial cycle we are living in. Science tells us the last ice age ended 11,700 years ago,55, whereas in reality that was the end of a rapid climate change event called the Younger Dryas.56 The last ice age ended 19,000 and 24,000 years ago in the Antarctic57 and Arctic58 respectively, after the last glacial cycle’s deepest temperature trough. There was also less ice at both poles during the Holocene Climate Optimum than exists today.59,60,61,62,63
Beginning about 5,000 years ago, ice began to accumulate at the poles, and northeast Greenland was ice-locked by 3,000 years ago.64,65,66,67 Glacier ice rapidly accumulated during the Little Ice Age, reaching its peak buildup by the mid-19th century.68,69 Much of this glacier ice melted after the mid-19thcentury 70 , 71 , 72 as the sun passed through its 20th century grand solar maximum phase.

We are already there, folks!
I recently read another paper,
“A Drowning Sunda Shelf Model during Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and Holocene: A Review”
also available:

One thing that struck me was that the timings in this paper seemed to agree with Brown’s observations regarding the glacial maximum and climate optimum even though it was released 4 years earlier.
The comparison with other studies’ data is also very valuable.
Much more can be written, of course, such as the fact that the real extinction threat is low CO2 levels during the next glaciation. Levels have been trending down with each subsequent glaciation, and the next decrease will reduce farming efficiency so much that it might not actually be worth the trouble, unless you have a greenhouse where levels can be adjusted up, to give spectacular yields with minimized water consumption.
The efficient use of water is quite important, due to the fact that glaciation reduces much of the land to desert conditions.
With the current assault on the food and associated distribution channels, it should be very clear we should be building such greenhouses, rather than wasting our money on useless solar panels and wind turbines.
If, we are to survive the next glaciation. But perhaps that is the plan, don’t let us survive. No energy, no food, no survival.
In 1991 there was a science fiction novel by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle, along with a guy named Michael Flynn (probably a different one) called "Fallen Angels." IIRC, it centered on the rescue of Moon colonists who crash landed on Earth while raiding the atmosphere to steal oxygen. The backdrop was a re-glaciated Earth, ice caps as far as the middle USA. The cause of this glaciation was draconian and highly successful environmental laws to stop global warming. The story was before its time. But the moral is that maybe we just need to keep burning coal, oil and gasoline to save ourselves.
