This week we have been advised by the 'experts' that this summer is already the hottest 'on record'; the last five years have also been the 'hottest' on record.

To me, this is evidence that all the shutting down of coal-powered generators, the madly expensive electricity, loss of competitiveness and jobs, undreliable generators, just isn't working. As sane people knew it would not.

I suppose the 'experts' will say we need to suffer even further hardship and deprivation the name of their god-like egos and big dollars.

WTF did you expect? Of course decreasing the rate at which we INCREASE atmospheric concentrations of CO2 is insufficient to prevent the hottest summer on record, nor the hottest years on record. But if we didn't, it would be hotter still.

No, we don't need to suffer hardship. We've already reached the stage where renewable energy (combined with batteries) is cheaper than coal fired. But until there's enough of it to prevent electricity generation companies from manipulating prices, our electricity prices are likely to remain high.

No. It would not be “hotter still” if CO2 (which has little to do with warming) had not been reduced. Emissions haven't dropped for the past 10 years, and it is getting hotter all the time, according to your fellow hysterics. You don't have a bloody clue what would have happened without the reduction of any CO2.

And, stop lying about unreliables being cheaper than coal, when they are obviously not.

CO2 has a lot to do with warming, and there's no credible alternative hypothesis to explain the warming we're experiencing. But global CO2 emissions are again increasing (after a slight drop in 2015).

I'm not "lying about unreliables being cheaper than coal". Indeed I'm not claiming unreliables are cheaper than coal; I'm truthfully claiming that RELIABLE RENEWABLES are now cheaper than coal, and that coal itself belongs firmly in the "unreliables" category because our coal fired power stations are frequently breaking down.

Not everything that seems obvious is true. Sometimes instead it's the result of making false assumptions.

So, you are not lying, but then you admit that you are lying by swapping 'unreliable' for 'reliable', a new lie in itself

Tell me Aidan, what bulldust wil you be spurting when, in the future, despite all the useless sacrifices, the climate just does what it was going to do anyway. Perhaps you think you will be gone from this mortal coil and will not have to dream up more stories.

hot hot hot. Only for snowflakes who weren't around before they started to manipulate the data. The US and Europe has been cold cold cold. Unfortunately the warmist charlatans have made heating and cooling far more expensive than it should be.
