A September 23, 2019, letter was sent to the Secretary-General of the United Nations (UN) and the Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) called the European Climate Declaration signed by 500 esteemed scientists and professionals in climate science to officially notify the United Nations that there is no climate crisis and that spending trillions on a non-problem is ‘cruel and imprudent.

They are asking for a little perspective, that climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific:
- Natural as well as anthropogenic factors cause warming
- Warming is far slower than predicted
- Climate policy relies on inadequate models
- CO2 is plant food, the basis of all life on Earth
- Global warming has not increased natural disasters
- Climate policy must respect scientific and economic realities
Three months earlier on 29 June 2019, scientists in Finland found “practically no anthropogenic [man-made] climate change” after a series of studies, which was corroborated by Japan, debunking IPCC models from scientists “hooked on government grants”. [2]
Contrary to the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) who in 2017 warned of an ” imminent apocalypse”. [3]
