"It can be dangerous to believe one’s own or others’ hype.
A couple of weeks ago, 180,000 people living downstream from the nation’s highest dam, the Oroville Dam in California, had to be evacuated because the dam’s main and emergency spillways were damaged due to heavy rainfall and runoff.
For many years, it had been known to both state and federal officials that the dam spillways were in need of repair.
But the politicians decided not to spend the necessary money, in part, because of the erroneous belief that due to global warming, the California drought would continue and limited rainfall would not be sufficient to refill the dam....Overhyped and exaggerated beliefs about climate change are now imposing major economic and human costs on Californians.
Misguided and downright stupid policies attributed of climate change hype have not just infected Californians but other peoples around the world subject to mass hysteria, such as the Germans. ...German industries that relied on cheap energy fled to places like Louisiana, where energy is plentiful, inexpensive and reliable.
So now the Germans are in a crash program to build many new coal-fired electrical power stations to avoid brownouts.
So much for going green..."
