With few exceptions, the common law upon which U.S. jurisprudence is based applies one of two “burdens of proof” in litigation: the “beyond a reasonable doubt” standard used in criminal proceedings, which requires a very high threshold for convincing evidence; The “preponderance of the evidence” standard widely used in civil cases is a 51 percent test that shows a party's claim is “more likely than not” to be true. [emphasis, links added]
These standards are effectively applied to address environmental issues such as global warming and ecotoxins.
In science, there was once a logical process based on hypothetical ideas, which gradually developed into a theory and was accepted as a “law” after being experimentally proven through repeated evidence.
In our current climate cult, so-called climate science is treated as the “law” of “consensus” rather than scientific evidence.
At best, science can be said to have overcome the minor legal burden of proving superiority: certainly not “beyond a reasonable doubt.”
Yes, I expect many will scream “we don't have the luxury of waiting for evidence”, but I make the exact opposite point here – beyond all reasonable doubtwe no longer have the luxury of this toxic cult.
In pursuit of the dubious, unscientific claim that greenhouse gases are warming the planet, humans are releasing ecotoxins that kill plant and animal life (including humans) and remain in the environment essentially forever.
The science may be equivocal as to how toxic or dangerous these different chemicals are (mainly because they are untested and loosely regulated – even subsidized!), but there is now no doubt that they will last for generations, if not thousands of years , and will accumulate in the body.
Scientific evidence for the presence of microplastics in the human brain, human heart and human reproductive system is now established Beyond any reasonable doubt.
We lawyers study the facts because we have a responsibility to ensure the integrity of the evidence in litigation—otherwise, we fail (embarrassingly).
The facts reported by the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) are easy to assess.
The IPCC reports do not claim that the world will end in 12 or even 50 years: they provide a range of possibilities based on a range of future outcomes in advance The very assumptions about global warming are questionable.
However, assuming that we humans are warming the planet, if our goal is to save the planet's environment, then the current human response will lead us in the opposite direction. I will prove this unequivocally here, beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Renewable energy manufacturing – the proposed solution to the unsubstantiated climate warming hype – is undoubtedly toxic.
Lithium and cobalt mining, especially in the Democratic Republic of Congo and other less developed countries, is irreversibly poisoning vast swaths of soil, water and human bodies with permanent chemicals.
Rubber tire dust is a major source of marine microplastics: electric vehicles increase tire wear by 30-40%. Most of the silicon used in solar panels and aluminum used in electric cars is smelted in China using coal-fired factories.
Plastic wind turbines and heat pumps join the ranks of polluting industries touted as climate protection but which ones are no doubt Their manufacturing process contributes to climate pollution.
All of these chemical-releasing products end up in landfills or toxic storage facilities. There's a lot of lobbying money here to distort policy – there's no doubt about that.
To date, EPA has identified 12,034 PFAS (per- or polyfluoroalkyl substances) that may threaten human and ecosystem health.
The Biden administration has invested billions of dollars in borrowed money into so-called “renewable energy” manufacturing, but No legislation has been implemented to reduce or eliminate the production of PFAS, only a multi-year plan to collect data on PFAS.
Breaking the climate cult
beyond reasonable doubt and lawful and The scientific conclusion is Manufacturing of electric vehicles, wind turbines, solar panels and heat pumps all These PFAS and other environmental toxins need to be diffused in large quantities without sequestering any carbon molecules.
Before Al Gore's Split An Inconvenient Truth In a steady stream of reports, there is broad bipartisan consensus that certain man-made chemicals can be harmful to wildlife, soil, water and people.
The shadowy climate cult turns its focus to carbon dioxide and methane instead of PFOS, phthalates and countless endocrine disruptors, carcinogens and obesity-causing toxins, and the result is: Americans are getting sicker, but industry is profiting on borrowed costs to make renewable energy.
There is no doubt that renewable energy manufacturing has been accused of forever poisoning our environment, Corporations that pollute the environment are defended with sloppy ideological pseudoscience, abandoning both the scientific method and any sense of logical proof.
Americans are waking up to the fraud of the climate cult. “Making America Healthy Again” can only be achieved by shifting toward combating the ubiquitous toxins in our food and ecosystems, and that’s impossible while the toxic renewable energy spigots are kept at full blast.
Toxic pollution is reduced and greenhouse gases are reduced (including all coal burned in the name of net zero.)
The United States must pursue net-zero chemical emissions forever, not the absurd, vapid fantasy of net-zero carbon. This is now clear beyond any reasonable doubt.
