Why the Russians Conceived the Global Warming Scam
AIM ^ | June 20, 2017 | Cliff Kincaid

Posted on 06/20/2017 12:11:43 PM PDT by detective

One of my duties at Accuracy in Media (AIM) has been to expose left-wingers in the media and Congress who were soft on the old Soviet Union and are now acting like hard-liners on Vladimir Putin’s Russia. It is a fascinating topic which exposes the duplicity of the left-wing obsession with Russia.

These people, who were soft on the Soviet Union and now hard on Russia, are the worst kind of hypocrites. Their hypocrisy is further demonstrated by the abundant evidence that the global warming or climate change theory, which they now embrace, was conceived by Soviet communists as a means by which to destroy the industrial base in the United States. This disinformation theme has been embraced by the liberals now claiming to be tough on Russia.

Yes, I know that the environmentalists are all “watermelons,” but this seems a bit of a stretch. Call me skeptical for now.

As much as I love her, Margaret Thatcher had more to do with setting this scam off than the Russians. I don’t think she knew where it would lead but she’s the one who got the British Universities all in a twist about it.

Why?

Look how reflexively so many distanced themselves (and their children) from science.

Now we have a culture filled with kids who, having been castrated of logic, reason, and science - can’t figure out what sex they are.

It was created to undermine our economic ability to produce by creating a moral imperative for the USA, while the Soviets intended to cash in their own production without ever being compelled to a contrived standard.

But it’s the perfect offset for the Russians meddling in our election, isn’t it? The Russians hacked our climate! They obstructed our coolness!

Seriously, I’m for constructing a whole movement over this.

“And just to pinpoint the problem, Klaus adds: “Schumpeter was hopefully wrong in his predictions. And in addition to it, he has been dead now for almost six decades. Al Gore, however, is very much alive.”

The Marxists’ new propaganda weapon

Or — again — as the late Natalie Grant put it, “Protection of the environment may be used as a pretext to adopt a series of measures designed to undermine the industrial base of developed nations. It may also serve to introduce malaise by lowering their standard of living and implanting communist values.”

When she died, Natalie Grant Wraga’s obituary quoted her as saying, “One must give the Soviets their due. No other country is capable as are the Soviets of manipulating public opinion in the West.”

“thought it started with Germany’s Green Party.”

Germany’s Green Party was an instrument of the KGB.

They are promoting anti-fracking:

“This is probably the most high-profile example that points to a direct attempt by Russia to undermine the shale revolution in the United States,” said Katie Brown, a spokesperson for Energy-in-Depth, an education and research project run by the Independent Petroleum Association of America. The group frequently provides counterpoint to environmentalists opposed to fracking in the U.S.

“This raises a lot of questions regarding where funding for anti-fracking foundations comes from,” Brown added. Public charities are not required to disclose all of their funding sources.

She thought it would break the UK coal miners union.
Back in the 1960s - 1970s they could make or break UK governments.

She had the equivalent of a US master’s degree in Chemistry, you’d think she would know better!

She had a couple of patents, one was for a food preservative for ice cream.

Without verifiable documentation, all that is meaningless.

How does that fit in with the heavily recognized actually recognized father of the global warming hoax??

Maurice Strong, 1971, before the Soviet Union still existed?

How does "proposing an organization" address global warming, global cooling or climate change?

Where is your link to the "document?“

The point is that the entire global warming hoax originated with the Soviet Union and the KGB.

There were many people who promoted the global warming hoax throughout the world but it was originated by the former government of the Soviet Union and the KGB.

The article contains all the information. Read the article and learn.

Here is a link from the article:
