Can COP17 technocrats rescue the warming scam?

Josh — Sat, 03 Dec 2011 00:08:08 +0000

The mood at this year’s UN climate conference is subdued. Perhaps fearful. In CFACT’s talks with the representatives of government, business, even the more radical NGOs, we’ve yet to find anyone confident that a successor treaty to the Kyoto Protocol will emerge in Durban.

The usual sideshow has been assembled. You can find rows of displays making their standard pleas for your tax dollars. Wind farms, solar, mass redistribution in the name of “climate justice,” and all the usual scare tactics have assembled.

Oxfam actually sat at a conference table they had carried into the waves of the Indian Ocean. But the sea level had not risen – not in any meaningful way. They carried their table to the same place on the beach where the waves would have found them years ago, or had humankind never engaged in commerce, industry, or had the temerity to harness fire in the first place.

Carbon profiteers and the global warming left sense that the annual climate party isn’t quite the same shindig it once was. They are pulling out their usual tricks, but the public has seen through them.

For the massive global warming industry, all hope vests now in the technocrats. Behind closed doors, out of site of the huge plenary session and the NGO freak show, a very small cadre of bureaucrats are meeting. They dream of treaties, but these skilled inside operators won’t let that stop them. They are putting together side agreements which permit them a way to work around such inconvenient obstacles as the U.S. Senate and whichever protections have been created to protect the sovereignty of other nations. Do not underestimate, the potency and cost of these side agreements.

Global warming is about money. Billions. They want to make it trillions. Those cashing in on this fortune will not go gentle into that dark night. The Green Climate Fund alone is now set at $100 billion and they are pushing in Durban to make it $400 billion. $400 billion may sound like a lot of money, but it is only a very small slice of the global warming pie. Consider the subsidies, set asides, guarantees, handouts, grants, shakedowns, etc. The money is vast and the special interests protecting it are legion.

The global warming cause may not be what it was, but make no mistake – the danger in Durban is real. The climatecrats will leave Africa with their money intact and with fresh plans to renew their assault upon the economy of the free world next year.

Climategate Caused Great Harm

MEDIA RELEASE: BERLIN CLIMATE CHANGE BRIEFING

WHERE: Hotel Melia Berlin, Friedrichstraße 103, 10117 Berlin, Germany

WHEN: Friday, December 4, 13:00-21:00

WHO: Dr. Fred Singer, Lord Christopher Monckton, Dr. Horst-Joachim Luedecke, Dr. Patzelt, Dr. Lubos Motl, and Dr. Andrej Illarionov,

WHAT: Climate Gate, NIPCC Report, Copenhagen Climate Summit

Greenpeace has already stated they will protest this event.

The IPCC relies heavily on data produced by academic fraud found at University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit (CRU). CRU’s lead investigator Phil Jones has already stepped down, but many governments has already imposed strict energy rationing measures based on his malfeasance.

“I shall now be reporting Phil Jones to the police for a financial and scientific fraud so enormous that, if it had succeeded, billions of people would have had to bear the cost via the Copenhagen Treaty, which we now know to be a non-solution to a non-problem,” says Monckton

CFACT (Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow), is a UN accredited NGO. CFACT offers positive solutions to today’s global challenges with the aid of its influential scientific advisory board, aggressive collegiate program, CFACT Europe, Adopt-A-Village project, Global Social Responsibility program, and “Just the Facts” national radio commentary.

Alarmists Reject Information

The CFACT Collegians group at the University of Connecticut hosted a screening of Not Evil Just Wrong this week. An alarmist student group decided to protest the screening due to the content of the movie, but they were not interested in seeing the movie themselves according to Daily Campus:

“Not everyone present debated the existence of global warming – many students from CFACT said they were more concerned with the way the government handles the issue.

‘I don’t care much about environmental issues. I care about the fact that people are dying because we’re trying to help global warming,’ said Matthew Darling, a 3rd-semester political science major. ‘They’re telling Africa to use solar power when the U.S., the industrialized nations, never had to. Telling them to [use alternative energy] is hypocritical.’

People in developing countries can’t afford to use these energy sources, Darling said.

‘I’m one who believes global warming exists and is caused by humans,’ said Phillip Ruffy, a 1st-semester management for engineering and manufacturing major and CFACT member. ‘I think that governmental regulations are not the way to solve the problem. I’m for free market. I’m a libertarian.’

CFACT members challenged the demonstrators, asking why they weren’t going in to watch the movie.

‘Are you aware of the facts in the movie?’ Ruffy asked Berthiaume. Berthiaume told him he’d seen the trailer, but was not interested in watching the film at this time.”
