The debate around climate change has been dominated by the belief that human activities are the primary drivers of global warming. However, an alternative perspective suggests that climate change is largely a natural phenomenon, driven by factors beyond human control. In this view, while human activities may have some influence, the primary causes of climate change are natural and cyclical processes and are causing mass immigration across the globe.

One of the key arguments against the idea that climate change is manmade is that the Earth’s climate has undergone dramatic shifts long before industrialization. Climate variability has been a constant feature of the planet’s history, with periods of warming and cooling occurring over millennia. For example, during the Medieval Warm Period (900–1300 AD), global temperatures were as high as, if not higher than, they are today. This warming occurred without the significant human industrial activity we see today, demonstrating that natural factors can drive significant changes in climate. Similarly, the Little Ice Age (1300–1850 AD) followed, cooling global temperatures significantly, again without any major human influence.

Proponents of the natural causes of climate change also point to the role of solar activity. The sun is the Earth’s primary source of heat, and variations in solar radiation can have profound impacts on the planet’s climate. Changes in solar cycles, sunspots, and solar radiation output have been linked to temperature fluctuations on Earth. For instance, studies have shown correlations between periods of low solar activity, such as the Maunder Minimum (1645–1715), and cooler temperatures on Earth. Therefore, it is plausible that current warming trends could be influenced by an increase in solar activity, rather than solely by human emissions of greenhouse gases.

Another factor contributing to natural climate variation is the Earth’s geological and oceanic systems. Volcanic eruptions, for example, have the potential to inject massive amounts of particles and gases into the atmosphere, temporarily cooling the Earth by reflecting sunlight. Ocean currents also play a crucial role in regulating global temperatures. Cycles like El Niño and La Niña cause significant shifts in weather patterns and temperatures around the globe. These oceanic cycles are natural, long-standing processes that can dramatically affect the climate without human intervention.

Moreover, the models used to predict catastrophic climate scenarios based on human carbon emissions are inherently uncertain. Climate models are built on assumptions and are highly sensitive to initial conditions, making it difficult to forecast long-term climate changes accurately. Critics argue that these models often fail to account for the complexity of natural climate drivers, such as clouds, water vapor, and cosmic rays, which can influence the climate system in unpredictable ways.

In addition, the hypothesis that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are the primary driver of climate change has been questioned. CO2 is a trace gas, making up only 0.04% of the Earth’s atmosphere. Historically, CO2 levels have fluctuated naturally, and there is evidence to suggest that increases in CO2 may follow, rather than cause, warming periods. Ice core data, for example, shows that past increases in CO2 levels lagged behind temperature increases by several hundred years, suggesting that warming caused by other factors could be driving the rise in CO2.

While human activities may contribute to climate change, there is a strong case to be made that natural factors play a more significant role in shaping the Earth’s climate. From solar activity and volcanic eruptions to ocean currents and natural CO2 cycles, the Earth’s climate system is incredibly complex and driven by forces beyond human control. Therefore, current climate trends may be part of a natural cycle rather than a purely manmade phenomenon. This argument is an inconvenient truth for the climate cult. Those who have built a religion around this are incapable of facing that they may be wrong. Imagine that your whole life, and all of your beliefs, are based on a falsehood. In the end, it seems to be a human condition, we know nothing. What if everything you have been taught is wrong?
