The WWF CO2 Hockey Stick Is Tragically Funny
By Karl J. Hansen, klimabedrag.dk
As I was skimming through the report "WWF Climate Solutions 2" from the Australian WWF, filled with stuff about how we need to stagnate all industry now in order to keep an overshoot of CO2 driven heat from overshooting way over 400 ppm, thus causing thermal runaway, I was amazed by the CO2 hockey stick and the way the oceans would eventually brake the stick a century from now and level out at a constant CO2 level of 400 ppm and constant "radiation".

The fascinating thing here is how the authors, who will not be held responsible for the correctness of the content, with this graph assumes that "radiation" from the various greenhouse gases will vary over time.
Graphs like these are iconic attempts to impress the public with apparent certainty about the future and thereby fulfilling a promotion of the "correct" policy and at the same time securing their own constituency. The same people who provide absolute scenarios like these are the same people who will not take into account the mistakes, that has been proven in up-to-date debunkings.
The authors of "WWF Climate Solutions 2" are blindly relying on outdated or proven wrong information. As have been said countless time before: it does not matter that you present a document like the "WWF Climate Solutions 2" as being definite and conclusive, even though it is solely based on rather unlikely scenarios, because it will serve it's propaganda purpose even if scientists later find countless flaws in it.
There is something missing in the climate science. What we miss is responsibility. Employees in the private industry would never get away with unrealistic reports, feasibility studies, design drafts or any other paper important to the industry they work for. Even if the employee provide documents biased towards the interests of the company, you are certain to be fired if this leads to later problems for the company.
Margaret Thatcher realized this slanderous way of working and privatized many former public institutions. Although this is probably not a helpful solution in the case of climate science, we need to demand something similar in order to make the scientists, employed in one way or another by the state, responsible for their work and only to provide those documents that are realistic, objective and provided in an orderly, honest fashion - just like in the common industry.
