Scientists and governments have neither the knowledge nor the means to control the earth’s climate, at least not at this time. What few people realize is that on a technical basis, the earth remains in the grip of an ice age which began about 3 million years ago. Our current Holocene Interglacial is no more than a brief warm period in a long-term ice age.

A new report from the Fraser Institute looks at the extent of those controversies and the difficulties that have developed in achieving a consensus on key definitions of what constitutes a subsidy.

What is settled is the abject failure of the three-decade-long attempt by the bureaucracies of the 195 countries of the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to convince anyone other than themselves, a credulous media, and a relatively few gullible people that climate change represents an existential threat.
