Global warming: the useful crisis that wasn’t.

It’s painfully clear now that Global warming was nothing more than a vehicle for international socialism. This kind of scaremongering is what the discredited religion of collectivism has been reduced to. Logic and reason contradicts the warmist so they become more and more religious in their fervor to impose drastic change upon our society. A society they already deem evil and immoral. Capitalism is the target.

“People [who] are alive today have been placed at a point in history that puts on us the burden of action that is almost unimaginable in the context of human history,” Gore said.

“We are the most powerful force of nature now. We are literally changing the relationship between the Earth and the Sun,” he said. “It has the capacity to bring civilization itself to a dead halt.” ~Al Gore, July 2008

Dozens of US cities may have entire neighbourhoods bulldozed as part of drastic “shrink to survive” proposals being considered by the Obama administration to tackle economic decline. ~telegraph.co.uk

Even I would not have dared suggest that Obama would already be moving forward with the physical destruction of America so soon.

Having outlined his strategy to Barack Obama during the election campaign, Mr Kildee has now been approached by the US government and a group of charities who want him to apply what he has learnt to the rest of the country.

Mr Kildee said he will concentrate on 50 cities, identified in a recent study by the Brookings Institution, an influential [liberal] Washington think-tank, as potentially needing to shrink substantially to cope with their declining fortunes. ~telegraph.co.uk

I think that this is just a taste of the future in a progressive America. A shrinking America. Bulldozed and socially engineered according to what the best and brightest minds have deemed proper. Cram everyone into urban centers where they are more easily controlled and regulated. When leftists complain and bemoan about ‘Urban sprawl’ what they really mean is that people have too much freedom of movement and choice. They fail to make the right choices, i.e. the ones the left wants, and when people make the wrong choices (according to them) then government has to step in and correct yet another ‘market failure’.

Limiting growth is not just a side effect of an economic downturn it is in fact the goal for the left. Much of the popular liberal ideology focuses on downsizing America as a public good. Limited growth is the ultimate end goal of the left.

He said: “The obsession with growth is sadly a very American thing. Across the US, there’s an assumption that all development is good, that if communities are growing they are successful. If they’re shrinking, they’re failing.” ~telegraph.co.uk

The left has plans for where and how you should live, what you will eat and how much you will have to exercise. Once the government is paying for your health care your exercise and eating habits will no longer be a matter of personal choice, it will be a matter of national economics. Once the government begins paying for your life it will own you and then the government will be deciding your life for you.

For more than half a century, the eminent physicist Freeman Dyson has quietly resided in Princeton, New Jersey, on the wooded former farmland that is home to his employer, the Institute for Advanced Study, the United States’ most rarefied community of scholars. Lately, however, since he came “out of the closet as far as global warming is concerned,” as Mr. Dyson sometimes puts it, there has been noise all around him. Chat rooms, Web threads, editors’ letter boxes and Mr. Dyson’s own e-mail queue resonate with a thermal current of invective in which Mr. Dyson has discovered himself variously described as “a pompous twit,” “a cesspool of misinformation” and, perhaps inevitably, “a mad scientist.” ~iht.com

The Prince of Wales is preparing to tell the world we have “less than 100 months to act” before the damage caused by global warming becomes irreversible. ~news.sky.com

A worldwind tour campaigning for Global Climate change. Hopping on the Royal 747 no doubt jetting from country to country sounding the alarm about how we need to cut corbon emissions or WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!! Yes, that’s the way it’s done. Hypocrisy intact.

Only 100 months to act!

CAPE TOWN, South Africa – If we don’t deal with climate change decisively, “what we’re talking about then is extended world war,” the eminent economist said.

His audience Saturday, small and elite, had been stranded here by bad weather and were talking climate. They couldn’t do much about the one, but the other was squarely in their hands. And so, Lord Nicholas Stern was telling them, was the potential for mass migrations setting off mass conflict.

“Somehow we have to explain to people just how worrying that is,” the British economic thinker said. ~news.yahoo.com

I hate to say this but this is a picture of the global elite manufacturing a fake crisis in order to control more of the population and gain more power over our lives.

If we don’t do something to stop global warming then there will be world war!!! Scaremongering? Ya think?

But then if they were truly serious about stopping global warming then why first all fly private chartered jets to South Africa and then plan to then fly their private chartered jets to antarctica in order to have this meeting?

Stern, author of a major British government report detailing the cost of climate change, was one of a select group of two dozen — environment ministers, climate negotiators and experts from 16 nations — scheduled to fly to Antarctica to learn firsthand how global warming might melt its ice into the sea, raising ocean levels worldwide. ~news.yahoo.com

The amazing thing about virtually every article like this is how naked this agenda is. The baldfaced lie is contradicted by the very words used to try and deceive readers about what this story is about. Global warming is all about global redistribution of wealth. It’s about the subjegation of capitalism.

In the face of such threats, “the rich countries have to give us a helping hand,” the African minister said.

Harry Reid: Energy companies use “the old Hitler lie”

He accused the coal industry of using “the old Hitler lie — when you say things long enough people start believing them.”

The comparison of the coal industry to Nazis came before his keynote speech, which began and ended with references to “the Jewish sages of yesteryear.”

A statement worthy of Goebbels himself. Corrupt Democrat Senator Reid makes us all sick with the perpetuation of his culture of corruption.

Democrats seem bent on destroying America. Knocking all our energy supplies out from under us will effectively cripple our economy. This is fine with the left because capitalism is the enemy. Our economy is based on oppression and exploitation according to them and stopping that is worth destroying the country because something better (ie ‘change’) will replace it.

This isn’t some fringe character, some crazy uncle that one has in the attic. This is one of the Democratic Party’s leadership explaining why he and his party will never allow for extensive increases in domestic supply for coal and oil, the two leading sources of energy in the US, along with natural gas. “Coal makes us sick. Oil makes us sick. It’s global warming. It’s ruining our country, it’s ruining our world. We’ve got to stop using fossil fuel.” ~hotair.com

We can go back to Harry Reid’s inadvertent admission that repeating (the global warming) lies will eventually make people believe it. The corrupt Senator sure knows his Nazi propaganda tactics doesn’t he?

Our systematic exposure to fear and other arousal stimuli on television can be exploited by the clever public relations specialist, advertiser, or politician. Barry Glassner, a professor of sociology at the University of Southern California, argues that there are three techniques that together make up “fearmongering”: repetition, making the irregular seem regular, and misdirection. By using these narrative tools, anyone with a loud platform can ratchet up public anxieties and fears, distorting public discourse and reason. ~npr.org

Seems like Gore is admitting that he knows he is “distorting public discourse and reason.”

Al Gore Calls Myanmar Cyclone a ‘Consequence’ of Global Warming

Using tragedy to advance an agenda has been a strategy for many global warming activists, and it was just a matter of time before someone found a way to tie the recent Myanmar cyclone to global warming.

Former Vice President Al Gore in an interview on NPR’s May 6 “Fresh Air” broadcast did just that. He was interviewed by “Fresh Air” host Terry Gross about the release of his book, “The Assault on Reason,” in paperback.

“And as we’re talking today, Terry, the death count in Myanmar from the cyclone that hit there yesterday has been rising from 15,000 to way on up there to much higher numbers now being speculated,” Gore said. “And last year a catastrophic storm from last fall hit Bangladesh. The year before, the strongest cyclone in more than 50 years hit China – and we’re seeing consequences that scientists have long predicted might be associated with continued global warming.”

Incredible.

Hey, the public is smarter than the social engineers think we are!

PRINCETON, NJ — While 61% of Americans say the effects of global warming have already begun, just a little more than a third say they worry about it a great deal, a percentage that is roughly the same as the one Gallup measured 19 years ago. ~gallup.com

This is a statistic that worries Al Gore. Despite the all out propaganda effort to convince people that global warming is more of a threat than the Nazi war machine and kamakazi Japanese empire put together only 40%, slightly more than the overall democrat demographic, think that it is an immediate threat.

Threat?

There has also been an uptick in the percentage of Americans who say global warming will pose a serious threat to them in their lifetimes, from 25% in 1997 to 40% today.

Even with this increase over the last 11 years, the fact remains that still less than a majority of Americans, at this point, believe global warming will pose a serious threat to them in their lifetimes. ~gallup.com

What does Al Gore and the social engineers have to do? Plant more evidence? Stage 911-style global warming attacks?

During an interview with Britain’s Sun, the former vice president seemed to offer a down-and-out update on his efforts since the release of “An Inconvenient Truth,” the documentary that won an Oscar as well as the wrath of many critics.

“The situation has not improved since I made the movie in 2006,” he told the paper, neglecting to mention that he also shared a Nobel prize during that time. “You have to ask what would it take to set off the alarm bells to make this a top-of-mind priority in the body politic.” Not melting ice at the North Pole, he added. ~thelede.blogs.nytimes.com

Political demographics have been holding fairly steady at one third Republican, one third democrat and one third other. Recent Pew Research numbers put these exact figures at 29, 33, and 38. Assuming that most Democrats have a political bias toward supporting the Global Warming hoax in order to further the liberal agenda that’s 33 percent to start- with another seven to ten percent of either Republicans or ‘others’ being duped into believing the Global Warming lies.

This will no doubt lead to more breathless, over-the-top, wild-eyed coverage hyping the immediacy of the threat and seeking to whip the gullible masses into a state of hysteria where they will rubber stamp anything done in order to counter the threat. Karl (Marx not Rove) would be proud.

After Veterans objected to Time trivializing WWII as an analogy to fighting Global Warming the Editor plainly stated his goal was not objective news but out and out propagandizing!

Richard Stengel, the managing editor of Time magazine, defended his decision by echoing Mr. Gore. “There needs to be an effort along the lines of preparing for World War Two to combat global warming and climate change,” he said.  ~thelede.blogs.nytimes.com

Duffy asked Marohasy: “Is the Earth stillwarming?”

She replied: “No, actually, there has been cooling, if you take 1998 as your point of reference. If you take 2002 as your point of reference, then temperatures have plateaued. This is certainly not what you’d expect if carbon dioxide is driving temperature because carbon dioxide levels have been increasing but temperatures have actually been coming down over the last 10 years.”

Duffy: “Is this a matter of any controversy?”

Marohasy: “Actually, no. The head of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) has actually acknowledged it. He talks about the apparent plateau in temperatures so far this century. So he recognises that in this century, over the past eight years, temperatures have plateaued … This is not what you’d expect, as I said, because if carbon dioxide is driving temperature then you’d expect that, given carbon dioxide levels have been continuing to increase, temperatures should be going up … So (it’s) very unexpected, not something that’s being discussed. It should be being discussed, though, because it’s very significant.”

Duffy: “It’s not only that it’s not discussed. We never hear it, do we? Whenever there’s any sort of weather event that can be linked into the global warming orthodoxy, it’s put on the front page. But a fact like that, which is that global warming stopped a decade ago, is virtually never reported, which is extraordinary.” ~theaustralian.news.com.au

…it would require the world to cease carbon emissions altogether within a matter of decades. ~washingtonpost.com

Uh huh.

“The question is, what if we don’t want the Earth to warm anymore?” asked Carnegie Institution senior scientist Ken Caldeira, co-author of a paper published last week in the journal Geophysical Research Letters. “The answer implies a much more radical change to our energy system than people are thinking about.”

What are we talking about? The proponents want dictatorial powers to combat this global emergency. What’s necessary is the ‘political will’.

For now, at least, a goal of zero emissions appears well beyond the reach of politicians here and abroad.
