UN Plan for 2015 Climate Summit Would Shackle Planet With Energy Restrictions
The New American ^ | February 16, 2015 | William F. Jasper

Posted on 02/16/2015 4:40:45 PM PST by detective

The draft text of the United Nations’ proposed global climate agreement was released Friday, February 13 in Geneva, Switzerland. The document, which proposes to impose draconian controls on all human activity and all energy production and consumption, has ballooned from the 38-page document that was negotiated last November-December at the UN climate circus in Lima, Peru, to 98 pages.

“Although it has become longer, countries are now fully aware of each other’s positions,” said Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), acknowledging that the more than doubling of the text’s length would make the next negotiating session “a little bit more difficult.”

This is truly scary. Unaccountable bureaucrats will control every part of the world economy. This is the greatest threat to our freedom and our prosperity that I can remember.

And nobody seems willing to fight it.

"And nobody seems willing to fight it."

The Obama administration is not only not willing to stop this climate change crap, they are willingly promoting it as being more important than the threat of terrorism.

They don't care about the environment or the planet. They want to eliminate capitalism and replace it with socialism. In essence to control the populace.

Exactly the opposite response that is needed.

Man needs to adapt to the Earth whether it is cooling or warming. Don’t bother with the non-starter conversation that it’s Mans fault. No one is going back into the caves.

The ONLY answer is to secure sources of energy AND a power delivery grid to heat where we work and live or to cool where we work and live.

Remember that guy with a ball and chain you might have seen as a kid, as a warning not to grow up to be a crook.

I never say a name on the guy.

It could have been a metaphor for the U. N. Nobody has needed a ball and chain quite as much as the U. N.

Curious if the U.N. is our most formidable enemy, THE enemy to focus on, or Islam? Both for sure, but the priority?

Seems they are both entrenched in our government, and our cities across the Nation. What to do? What to do?

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

The American position on this should be composed in less than 4 lines:

Dear UN,

Go **** yourselves.

Love,

America

The extinction of the UN should become a major object of American foreign policy.

I wonder if we could install a meter or something to show the number of times abclily has posted the exact same thing, wasting bandwidth and adding nothing to the conversation.

This is a disgrace. I mean, these lunatics appear to believe that they’re entitled to a separate reality to the one which everybody else lives in.

Money quote from the article:

“This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the industrial revolution,” Figueres asserted, at a February 3rd press conference during the Geneva climate talks. “That will not happen overnight and it will not happen at a single conference on climate change,” she continued. “It is a process, because of the depth of the transformation.”

Many decades ago a group like this would be hooted out of the limelight. Now everyone stares, entranced, slack-jawed. And godless.
