The Politics of Climate Change: Green New Deal And Other Madness

[anka]

It looks like the COVID-1984 plannedemic is starting to backfire on another front:

Inconvenient Truth: Diesel Car Pollution Grossly Overhyped By German Activists
NoTricksZone, April 15

Roland Tichy’s site herereports that although car traffic in the German city of Stuttgart has decreased significantly due to COVID-19, the drop in NO2 content has only been “slight”.

So it cannot be the evil diesel engine cars that are “choking” our cities.



“The Corona crisis is bringing it to light:car traffic has decreased significantly, but the air quality in city centers has hardly changed,” Tichy comments.


Environmental claim exposed as false

回想一下,主要减少柴油机佤邦s supposed to improve air quality. After all, experts at the Baden-Württemberg State Institute for the Environment (LUBW), for example, have attributed a large 80 percent share of air pollutants especially to diesel vehicles – so they have to be banned soon. Yet Tichy notes: “If this is true, the ‘shutdown’ would have to have a drastic effect. But it does not.”

It turns out that the involuntary “corona experiment” with its widespread stop of car traffic has exposed bare the false claim made by environmental activists: Diesel cars are responsible for polluting the air of German cities.


Diesel car bans “pointless”

According to Tichy,“电晕试验”说明了意义driving bans issued by the green transport ministers can be. “They obviously have no effect on the NO2 concentrations in the air.The measured values, for example, at the Am Neckartor station in the Stuttgart city center were already below the limit value of 40 µg/m3 in February and March, ” writes Tichy. “At that time, traffic was still flowing and ‘shutdown’ had not yet been announced.”


其他更大的因素

Tichy adds that engineer and measurement expert Martin Schraag accuses proponents of car bans of data “manipulation” and reminds that today’s “newer vehicles and those retrofitted with software updates hardly emit any exhaust gases. This should also have been reflected in the results.”

Schraag notes thatNO2 values fluctuate strongly and depend heavily on Stuttgart’s weather conditions and wintertime heating can be the cause. “The weather, if you look at the data, has a decisive influence,”Tichy comments.“The experts of the LUBW environment office obviously did not care about these influences and officially know nothing about them. They still assume that traffic accounts for 80 percent of air pollutants.”

At a loss for words

Now they are facing difficulties in explaining the situation. As Schraag suspects, the 80 percent figure cannot be correct if there are significantly fewer cars on the road and yet the values have not changed.

The Bavarian State Office for the Environment also confirmed that the air pollutants in the city of Würzburg had hardly changed either although traffic has decreased significantly.

Renewable Energy - It has been a green theme from windmills to solar on this and other threads, and low and behold Michael Moore comes out with a new film, although it is going against renewables (evenThe Guardianis apparently getting in line):

The End of Big Green? The Guardian Praises Michael Moore’s Anti Renewables Flick “Planet of the Humans”

Guest essay by Eric Worrall The Guardian even mentions nuclear energy in a vaguely positive light (unlike the Moore film). Planet of the Humans review – contrarian eco-doc from the Michael Moore st…

As Eric Worrall summarizes:

What is happening to the Guardian?The other day they praised seafront property development, now they’re praising a movie which trashes renewables.

一,绿色一直暗暗恨可再生能源吗nd suddenly feel able to talk about it?Or are they just softening us up, because they are about to spring something even worse on us?

There is a secondarticlewith the actual film, which has yet to be viewed, however there are a few points from Anthony Watts (with a dash of satire):

A MUST READ! Wow,the renewable light bulb of “great idea” over Michael Moore’s head just burned out. He’s trashing renewables in this new filmPlanet of the Humans.

On the 50th anniversary of EarthDay, the irony meter is pegged.It’s an epic take-down of the left’s love-affair with renewables by one of the left’s most known public figures.

Forbes Michael Shellenberger's said:

影片显示,McKibben和塞拉俱乐部吃晚饭ported a Michigan ballot initiative that would have required the state get 25% of its electricity from renewables by 2025, and that the initiative was backed by biomass industrial interests, and that efforts to build a biomass plant at Michigan State University were hotly opposed by climate activists — including ones from 350.org.
[...]
The film description says:

Michael Moore presents Planet of the Humans, a documentary that dares to say what no one else will this Earth Day — that we arelosing the battleto stop climate change on planet earth because we are following leaderswho have taken us down the wrong road— selling out the green movement to wealthy interests and corporate America. {they must have another road by the sounds of it, and what would that look like?}

This film is the wake-up call to the reality we are afraid to face: that in the midstof a human-caused extinction event, the environmental movement’s answer is to push for techno-fixes and band-aids. It’s too little, too late. Removed from the debate is the only thing that MIGHT save us:getting a grip on our out-of-controlhuman presenceand consumption. {ah, so there it is}

Why is this not THE issue? Because that would be bad for profits, bad for business. Have we environmentalists fallen for illusions, “green” illusions, that are anything but green, because we’re scared that this is the end—and we’ve pinned all our hopes on biomass, wind turbines, and electric cars?No amount of batteries are going to save us, warns director Jeff Gibbs (lifelong environmentalist and co-producer of “Fahrenheit 9/11” and “Bowling for Columbine”).

This urgent, must-see movie, a full-frontal assault on our sacred cows, is guaranteed to generate anger, debate, and, hopefully, a willingnessto see our survival in a new way—before it’s too late. {yes, the 'new way' seems to be in play}

Going back to Worrall:

"Or are they just softening us up, because they are about to spring something even worse on us?"

Environmental activists delivered a petition to a special session of the Swiss parliament on Monday demanding that a government aid package should promote a "green recovery" from the coronavirus crisis.

Swiss environmentalists demand 'green recovery' after coronavirus

President of the Swiss Confederation Simonetta Sommaruga delivers a speech at the extraordinary session of Swiss Parliament during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak in Bern, Switzerland, May 4, 2020. Denis Balibouse

May 4, 2020 - With some lawmakers wearing protective face masks, parliament convened at an exhibition centre rather than its normal building so members had extra space to maintain social distancing rules.

Campaigners said the 62 billion Swiss francs ($64 billion) in emergency economic aid should be used in an environmentally friendly way.

More than 22,000 people signed the petition demanding that support for companies in sectors with large greenhouse gas emissions like aviation be tied to reducing their environmental impact.

The package includes 1.28 billion Swiss francs in loan guarantees for Lufthansa (LHAG.DE) units Swiss and Edelweiss.

“We are here because we want to make it a green recovery. We need to foster measures that help us to quit fossil fuels now in the wake of corona,” said Georg Klingler from Greenpeace Switzerland. “We need to make our society more resilient for the crises to come,” he told Reuters.

He urged the government to back measures to eliminate the use of fossil fuels and promote renewable energy, and called on the financial industry to fund sustainable solutions.

“Today they are still heavily invested in fossil fuels and financing a world that will get 4C to 6C hotter,” he said. “That is not sustainable at all.”

Many environmentalists see efforts to minimise the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic as a chance to scale up the technologies needed to speed a transition to cleaner energy.

Fatih Birol, head of the International Energy Agency, has also said support from governments could drive rapid growth in battery and hydrogen technology to help the world to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels.

The Swiss government has made few moves in that direction, although President Simonetta Sommaruga said last week the government’s climate targets were still valid and airlines needed to contribute to them.

Campaigner Zoe Roth from Basel said the COVID-19 crisis presented an opportunity to change thinking.

“During this corona crisis we have seen how vulnerable this world is,” she said. “In the ... climate crisis, which is way bigger, we really need to do something. We need to take this crisis as a chance to build a more just and more sustainable future,” she said.

Ice Age Farmer reporting in his new video on passed law from EU on May 20th and about shifting gears towards Green New Deal.

"The EU's "Farm to Fork" strategy was unveiled this week, describing the necessary shift in people's diets to insects as protein and away from meat/dairy. The EU promises to apply prohibitively high luxury taxes to meat and dairy, and has allocated € 100s of billions to BOTH buy out traditional farmers to stop farming AND simultaneously fund robotic insect farms and lab-grown meat. Plus, they plan to refuse any trade deals unless partner countries are EQUALLY committed to "Green Alliances." This is a GLOBAL takeover of our food supply. Understand it. Expose it. Grow food."

I think it's fitting.

"The EU's "Farm to Fork" strategy was unveiled this week...

Indeed, such an insidious plan has been devised starting with demonizing and deplatforming the element of C02 ppm's while monetizing its architecture economic control value - thank you very much Mr. Maurice Strong and Co.

Thirty years ago, farmers would have had their pitchfork out for anyone proposing such a 'strategy' as can now be seen with the EU and Co. in print, yet now this creeping ponerization process (that waited for generational change while quadrupling-down with IPCC et al. climate propaganda dictates) sees so many cheering and welcoming these multifaceted life altering realities. In this case, the Ice Age Farmer notes it will be easy to shift consumers by putting a tax on what foods they deem necessary, while banning farming (with the exception of big corporate farming) - the consumer choice will be removed economically, or so seems to be the plan. Eat bugs, grass and lab grown food, they say, which shows how much they think of humanity...

Gurdjieff, in more simple terms from that of Lobaczewski, who had so well described the macrosocial political process behind all this, reminded in this story from withinBeelzebub's Tales,of the smelling of a chicken's ass:

"Your monarchy, your communism, your surrealism, all have exactly the same quality, the same value. All four, five, ten, however many exist, it is the same thing, the same smell. It smells like a chicken's ass. The expression does exist. When you buy a chicken, you always sniff it in one place, whether it's old or young, there is one place you sniff - under the tail. That's the way you can tell if it's old or young, if it was killed five days, a week or a month before. That is why you smell it there. All chickens smell the same in that place, but with different qualities. Old, one quality, young, another quality, but both are mixed with the smell of shit. It is the same with all your political parties. The smell is mixed with the smell of shit."

These days, despite the young or old smell from those who have these very same qualities of odor, one of these types might find themselves accepting a Nobel prize - with global accolades flowing in, of course. However, some might say the odor smells similar to the old eugenicists asses that never went away. Same thinking, different scientific and control tactic?

Back to the Ice Age Farmer, he had cited from the above his video on 'Beefgate,' so here it is below if missed:

Hi Voyager. FWIW, that story from G does not appear anywhere in BsT. It does sound like Gurdjieff though

Yes, very correct. It came up in questions from hisParis Meetings 1943that was attributed incorrectly. Here is that book fromJoseph Azize(who would later be a guest on MindMatters).

Extinction Rebellion is a deranged fundamentalist religion that seeks global domination. Just 2 months ago BLM was a rather minor protest group. Now they are basically the biggest political party in the West. Just wait when the global Cabal puts this group in the frontlines of influence and decision making. The great Reset is coming.


The Five Things Extinction Rebellion Does Not Want You to Know About Extinction Rebellion

The surprisingly successful Extinction Rebellion is running a con game on everyone, especially their own followers. Ostensibly the standard bearer of the “Keep It in the Ground” movement, Extinction Rebellion (XR) is actually on a mission to topple governments, destroy the global economy, and “replace representative democracy.” At least according to thearchitectof the XR movement, Roger Hallam.

Before he started gettingmainstream mediacoverage, Hallam—afailedorganic carrot farmer who “decided to take down the system because I didn’t like it very much”—was much more candid about his real ambition with XR. Following are five things he admitted about XR that he doesn’t want you to know.

XR WANTS TO OVERTHROW ALL GOVERNMENTS

“Name of the game, you’ve got tobring down all the regimesin the world, ideally simultaneously, and replace them.”

“The practical implementation happens byparalyzing major citieswith masses of people. Disabling traffic for a sufficiently long period of time would result in food shortages. Once that happens the regime will fall.”

This should come as quite a surprise to the thousands of XR protester who were told the reason for shutting down traffic in London fornearly two weekslast April was to draw attention to the issue of climate change.

XR WANTS TO DESTROY ECONOMIES

“Arguments about the need to ‘protect the economy,’ ignoring that the current economy is taking us over a cliff into collapse, simply cannot hold up. So, let’s be clear. A Climate Emergency is not a rhetorical call for accelerated climate action, it’s a call for a major transition of the economy. There is simply no other way to get the job done. … It will mean shutting down cities, shutting down companies and if necessary,关闭的部分the economy.”

XR EXPECTS VIOLENCE

"We are going to force the governments to act. And if they don't, we will bring them down and create a democracy fit for purpose. And yes,some may diein the process."

Protesters should be ready to cause disruption through “personal sacrifice … You need about 400 to go to prison and you need two to three thousand people to get arrested ... If necessary, they should bewilling to die.”

XR WANTS TO ELIMINATE REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY

“When a society reaches a point of extreme imbalance then only a revolutionary episode can be successful in reorienting it. This reorientation is concretized through areplacement of representative democracy … with a National Citizens’ Assembly.

“This National Citizens’ Assembly would then create regional and city Citizens’ Assembliesso as to facilitate the decentralization of power.The National Citizens’ Assembly would create a new written constitution which would ensure such assemblies werea permanent fixture of our political life.”

XR ACKNOWLEDGES THE SCAM

“A key part of our strategy will be tosell the planto a critical mass of the liberal elite ‘defectors’ as well as to the 1% of the general population who will lead the disruption.”

That would be the same “1%” who believe this movement is about the climate. But according to Stuart Basden, one of the original co-founders of Extinction Rebellion, it clearly isn’t.

“Extinction Rebellionisn’t about the climate. It’s not even about ‘climate justice.’ If we only talk about the climate, we’re missing the deeper problems plaguing our culture … It’s a call to the XR community to never say we’re a climate movement. Because we’re not. We’re a Rebellion.”

Ice Age Farmer Report: Global AI surveillance "climate tracing" of all activity via emissions data -- Sott.net

"A powerful, global AI surveillance system has been announced this week by Al Gore. The system is powerful enough to detect emissions from every power plant, each farm, and every wood-burning stove on the planet. This system affords total information awareness to the powers that be -- and is being plugged in to the DoD's AI weapons system, in a war being perpetrated against all of humanity. Christian breaks it down in this Ice Age Farmer report."

I wonder if anyone else here was banking on the satellites taking a hit sooner than later? Just my yearning l suppose (want to be left alone) and that yearning is most likely much further down the road than l even want to visualize it seems. Wood stoves are the go to back up for those of us that live in the northern part of the US. My hope now is that any enforcement cadres will flag and attention will be focused elsewhere, keep the faith.

I think the PTB have to build a lot more prisons in the near future to lock up ''conspiracy thinkers'' and ''right-wing extremists''.

Criticizing the government and so-called science models is verboten in Germany. How nostalgic.

Just as a side note, Green party (!!!) is a winner in last local elections in several big cities in West Germany (NRW):
they have mayors in Bonn, Aachen, Wuppertal, Emsdetten, Havixbeck, Monschau, Lohmar, Rösrath, Nettetal, Altenberge, Rheinberg, Kempen.
They are indoctrinating kids from ground-school, pushing them in protests against CO2, ect.

Green party wins several big city mayor posts in Germany’s most populous state
