A Google news search for the term “climate change,” this week turns up dozens of stories in the corporate media publicizing and lambasting Stuart Kirk, global head of responsible investment for international banking giant HSBC, for having the temerity to speak the truth about climate alarmism. Kirk said what hundreds of articles at Climate Realism, Climate Change Weekly, and Climate at a Glance, have long shown to be true: climate change is not an existential threat; data show that almost every assertion that climate change is making extreme weather worse is false; and the world faces much more pressing and immediate crises and problems than climate change.
Coming from the head of the responsible investing branch at one of the world’s largest banks it is no surprise Kirk’s statement caused quite a stir in these days. After all, on climate matters it has become de rigueur to suppress climate truths not comporting with the climate elite’s official line that humans are causing a climate apocalypse and to purge those speaking them.
Kirk noted that history replete dozens if not hundreds of examples, where so-called experts in academia and government declared an environmental disaster to be in the offing, only to have their widely publicized predictions prove false. The Competitive Enterprise Institute documented many such wrong-headed environmental disaster predictions here.
For his climate heresy, Kirk has been punished by HSBC with a suspension.
