'Climate change': An Ideologically Driven Movement
American Thinker ^ | 23 Mar, 2023 | Alexander G. Markovsky

Posted on 03/23/2022 5:28:32 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Scientists have been telling us that humanity will end in ten years for the past half-century.

Jonathan Overpeck, Ph.D., a professor and dean of the School for Environment and Sustainability at the University of Michigan is the author of an article titled “Whatever it Takes,” posted on The Hill recently.

In his article, Professor Overpeck made a torrent of apocalyptic predictions and delineated a host of “inexorable and accelerating” calamities attributed to Global Warming. “I care about future generations, who stand to inherit either an unimaginable climate change disaster or a world transformed that is free of climate change, toxic air pollution, mass extinction, and the terrible economic and health burdens that massive climate change is sure to create,” he wrote.

The author insists that “Success in our battle against climate change requires the deliberate and strategic spending.” He authoritatively concluded that “warming and associated climate disasters become inevitable and largely irreversible.” (Emphasis mine.)

Haven't we danced to this dance before? In the mid-1970s, scientists and the media overwhelmingly supported global cooling with the same vigor and urgency as Professor Overpeck supports global warming today. The cover of April 28, 1975, issue of Newsweek proclaimed “The Coming Ice Age.” In the article “The Cooling World,” the magazine suggested the disasters similar to those predicted in the article “Whatever it Takes.” On June 24, 1974, issue of Time magazine, the article “Another Ice Age” painted a bleak picture for the future of our planet: “When meteorologists take an average of temperatures around the globe, they find that the atmosphere has been growing gradually cooler for the past three decades. “The trend shows no indication of reversing.”

The government advocacy of Global Warming seems to be just an orchestrated crisis to grab control of the means of production. For some academics I think it is just one aspect of their own self-loathing and hatred of humanity in general.

Another aspect of the global warming hysteria is the fact that it is being used to justify large wealth transfers to th third world as reparations for colonization. It will also be used to justify reparations in the USA.

“When meteorologists take an average of temperatures around the globe, they find that the atmosphere has been growing gradually cooler for the past three decades. “The trend shows no indication of reversing.” That was until they found one neat trick.

The Architects of Western Decline - The Frankfurt School

This vid exposes and explains our problem with these progs.

And that what they find sickening and egregious is any sexual inhibitions what so ever.

In fact, they blame sexual Puritanism as the soul source of crime and mental health problems.

Once pedophilia is legal they can finish off our civilization

and build the utopia.

Let's see...what should we be more concerned about?

Should we be concerned about:

Leftists in charge of governments around the world, destroying the energy sector and economies of developed countries, deliberately reducing the amount of fertilizer available, making it impossible for producers to transport goods to market and making it impossible for consumers to buy them, sinking humanity, as Winston Churchill put it in his famous "Finest Hour" speech, "...into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science..."

Or...

"Climate Change????

Hmm. I just cannot make up my mind.

I feel like "The King" played by Mel Brooks in "History of The World Part II" where he is giving a woman the choice of being humped by him, or have her father put to death, which she says she won't do because she was raised in a convent.

The King is thinking aloud the thought process her mind should be going through, his eyes raised to the sky, his head nodding left to right as he says quizzically aloud "Hump? Death? Hump? Death? Hump? Death?" as if if the choice is so close he just cannot make up his mind and the clock is ticking down...

The climate change issue is one of the foundations for the Great Reset which will result in government control of everyone’s life, and not to anyone’s advantage, except for the rulers.

The control enacted to “Save the Planet” will be the final step needed to establish a Global Government aka the final One World Government.

We are incapable of producing the quantity of batteries necessary to store wind and solar power as a reliable source.

The material for the batteries is largely found in China, Africa, and Russia, and mining them is harder on the environment than is accessing fossil fuels, not to mention their disposal.
