Some critics have noted Holdren's penchant for making apocalyptic predictions that never come to pass, and categorizing all criticism of his alarmist views as not only wrong but dangerous. What none has yet noted is that Holdren is a globalist who has endorsed "surrender of sovereignty" to "a comprehensive Planetary Regime" that would control all the world's resources, direct global redistribution of wealth, oversee the "de-development" of the West, control a World Army and taxation regime, and enforce world population limits. He has castigated the United States as "the meanest of wealthy countries," written a justification of compulsory abortion for American women, advocated drastically lowering the U.S. standard of living, and left the door open to trying global warming "deniers" for crimes against humanity. Such is Barack Obama's idea of a clear-headed adviser on matters of scientific policy. ............" -- Obama's Biggest Radical
The government by appointed board of regulators and NGOs got a big boost in our county when BP offered the pay the board and the cost of tying storm water ditches to a tidal area in exchange for a seat on the board and exclusion from the Stormwater district oversight and fees.
The Stormwater board was moving along quite well under the radar until one of the members pulled a Gruber. She was so proud of what they were doing and didn’t really understand the full import of their actions that she posted a link on the blog section of our local newspaper and I started asking questions.
The people on the storm water board were not the brightest people and were allowing themselves to be used by BP and the developers of a coal terminal in our county. The stupid woman on the board posted links to the minutes of a meeting between the coal terminal developers and the Puget Sound Partnership to transfer money from a fee in lieu of mitigation from Whatcom County to the control of the Puget Sound Partnership to be used on Environmental projects in other counties. They claimed that experience had shown that on sight mitigation on projects like a coal terminal, seldom worked.
I told the Republican in charge of the County a Council about the post and what was happening. He told me he would look into it and to print out the minutes and bring them to him. The Republicans were pushing FOR the coal terminal. When I went to print out the minutes, they had been deleted. The man who worked for the county in charge of the Stormwater board was let go, the BP seat on the advisory board was taken away and the funding for the the NGO, the Puget Sound a Partnership was withdrawn by governor. Nothing was ever admitted as far as the illegal actions.
Thanks for that info.
