    BEHIND THE GREEN MASK: AGENDA 21
    Alexandra Bruce of Forbidden Knowledge writes about Rosa Koire's work re Agenda 21
    October 12, 20191
    https://forbiddenknowledgetv.net/beh...k%3A+Agenda+21
    "It’s funny how so many topics once deemed to be “Tinfoil Hat conspiracy theories” keep getting proven to be worthy of serious attention. Agenda 21, the United Nations’ 1992 plan for Sustainable Development is an example.

    Rosa Koire has been doing an excellent job of raising awareness about Agenda 21 for many years. She describes how it is being rolled-out – never by name. This is carefully avoided. Hence, we’re propagandized about Climate Change and the Green New Deal. She says Agenda 21 programs can be identified by their so-called “communitarian” ethos that is imposed from without by NGOs, circumventing the will of communities and the individuals within.

    Agenda 21 has been getting pushed hard lately in the agitprop of Greta Thunberg and Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez. Among its unrealistic goals, the Green New Deal aims to restructure the entire global energy economy within 10 years by completely “transitioning” the US out of fossil fuels and nuclear energy and into renewables, like wind and solar power.

    What none of its proponents will admit is that this plan requires genocide. As shown by the collapse of Rome and demonstrated repeatedly by successive societies, the halving of energy consumption leads directly to the collapse of human populations.

    As a Bay Area forensic commercial real estate appraiser and expert witness, Rosa Koire observed how property owners in Northern California have been barred from using their own properties, thus making these cheap when the Government wants to acquire them for Eminent Domain.

    While investigating this, Koire ran into Agenda 21 – or as she calls it, “The biggest public relations scam in the history of the world,” and how this global plan aims to break down economies and to depopulate areas considered to be rural or suburban, concentrating populations into larger cities.

    “This is the plan. It’s the loss of our industry, our agriculture, our food independence. Ultimately, it’s the loss of our sovereignty, as a free nation…It’s social engineering…it’s the acceptance of what I call the ‘new poverty’.”

    Over two million people in California were left without power this week and several hundred thousand remain without power during a preventive blackout by PG&E lasting several days. The energy company’s promise to make a massive outage like this the new normal will likely drive many people away from the rural areas and thus fulfill the plan of Agenda 21."

    The man who invented ‘climate change’

    by Robert
    October 18, 2019
    “It was never about climate change but about setting up a one world socialist government run by the UN!”
    – Don Brown
    Here are snips and pieces from an article by Christopher Booker, who describes Canadian socialist multimillionaire Maurice Strong’s “absolutely central role” in the whole story.

    In 1972, Strong, a superb political operator, set up a UN “Environment Conference” to declare that the Earth’s resources were the common inheritance of all mankind and should no longer be exploited for the benefit of only a few countries at the expense of poorer countries.

    In 1988, he helped set up the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

    In 1992, Strong pulled off his greatest coup when he helped stage and presided over the colossal “Earth Summit” in Rio, arranging for it to be attended not only by 108 world leaders and 100,000 others but also by 20,000 UN-funded “green activists”.

    And ever since, it has been Strong’s ideology, enshrined at Rio in “Agenda 21”, which has continued to shape the entire process.

    Had it not been for this man, says Booker, we would not have seen 150 heads of government joining 40,000 delegates in Paris for that mammoth climate conference.

    The UN in effect has dictated the global climate change agenda ever since. Almost yearly it has staged huge conferences, notably those at Kyoto (1997), Copenhagen (2009) and the present one in Paris.

    To this day, global climate policy is still shaped by Strong’s Agenda 21, as was highlighted when Christiana Figueres, the Costa Rican Marxist now head of the UNFCCC and organiser of the Paris conference, urged that the West should give “$1 trillion a year” to the “developing” world.

    Lest you think that Strong’s motives were pure, Booker includes this amazing tidbit:
    “In 2005, Strong was caught having been illicitly paid $1 million from the UN’s Oil for Food programme, supposedly set up to allow Saddam Hussein to pay in oil to feed starving Iraqis. He retired to a flat in Beijing, where he had been close to China’s Communist leaders back to Mao.”
    Funny, isn’t it, how our self-declared ‘saviours’ so often benefit while supposedly rescuing us?

    Or maybe that’s not so funny after all.

    Is it climate socialism – or eco-fascism?

    – Paul Driessen
    _______________
    “Claims that we face an imminent, existential, manmade climate cataclysm – but can prevent it by replacing fossil fuels with biofuel, wind, solar and battery power – seem to grow more frenzied, desperate and absurd by the week, writes Paul Driessen.

    “The examples noted here at least are more rational than climate change making sharks right-handed or causing bridges to collapse. But they are all being used to justify a multi-trillion-dollar Green New Deal that activists proclaim is Earth-saving climate socialism.”

    “In reality, they are demanding intolerant, totalitarian eco-fascism: an economic and political system that uses environmental fear mongering to justify dictating what businesses can make, do, sell and say – while controlling citizens’ thoughts, speech and access to information. Failure to understand and combat this could put our future in serious jeopardy.”

    Is it climate socialism – or eco-fascism?

    By Paul Driessen

    Green New Deal climate alarm socialism is really intolerant, totalitarian eco-fascism

    Green New Dealers have convinced themselves that our planet faces an imminent, existential, manmade climate cataclysm – that can be prevented solely and simply by government edicts replacing fossil fuels with biofuel, wind, solar and battery energy. They achieve this state of absolute certainty largely by propagating constant scare stories, while ignoring and suppressing contradictory evidence and viewpoints.

    They deliberately and deceptively talk about “carbon pollution.” Carbon is soot – what our cars, factories and power plants now emit in very small quantities. The honest, accurate term is carbon dioxide: the colorless, odorless, invisible gas that we exhale and plants need to grow, by using the tiny but growing 0.04% of Earth’s atmosphere that is CO2 to grow faster, better and with greater resistance to droughts.

    They are climate change deniers, who say Earth’s climate is stable and can be kept stable by controlling minor factors (human carbon dioxide and methane emissions) and ignoring water vapor (the dominant greenhouse gas) and fluctuations in solar energy, cosmic rays, clouds, oceanic circulation, volcanoes, planetary orbits and other powerful natural forces that have brought climate changes throughout history.

    They insist that even another half-degree increase in planetary temperatures since Earth emerged from the Little Ice Age (1350-1850) would be cataclysmic. That’s absurd. They also rely on computer models that project rapidly soaring temperatures – but already claim average global temperatures should be 0.9 degrees F higher than they actually are, according to satellite and weather balloon measurements.

    Climate Crisis True Believers say tornadoes and hurricanes are becoming more frequent and intense. In reality, from 1950-1984, the US averaged 55 violent (F4 to F5) tornadoes every year; but over the next 33 years (1985-2018) only 35 per year. And in 2018, for the first time in recorded history, not one F4-F5 tornado touched down anywhere in the United States. (Is this due to rising atmospheric CO2 levels?)

    Similarly, from 1920 through 2005, fifty-two Category 3 to 5 hurricanes made US landfall (1.6/year on average). And then, from October 2005 until August 2017 – a record twelve years – not one Category 3 to 5 ’cane struck the US mainland. Harvey and Irma ended that hurricane drought in 2017, but were hardly unprecedented in their intensity or rainfall. (Was that drought due to rising atmospheric CO2 levels?)

    The Washington Post reported that “the Arctic Ocean is warming up … and in some places seals are finding the water too hot.” That was in 1922, and explorers wrote about Arctic ice cycles long before that. “We were astonished by the total absence of ice in Barrow Strait,” Sir Francis McClintock wrote in 1860, whereas at this time in 1854 it was “still frozen up.” As to continental USA weather, a commentator said “Snows are less frequent and less deep, and the rivers scarcely ever [freeze over] now.” That was Thomas Jefferson, in 1799. The 1970s manmade global cooling scare was replaced by today’s warming crisis.

    After rising some 400 feet since the last ice age ended about 12,000 years ago, oceans are rising at 7 to 10 inches per century. That’s a minimal threat to coastal communities, some of which are more seriously threatened by land subsidence – including Chesapeake Bay lands (Maryland), Hampton Roads (Virginia), Houston and Miami. There has been no increase in the rate of sea level rise in more than a century.

    Seawaters cannot become “more acidic.” They are slightly alkaline. They may be getting slightly less alkaline, depending on where and when pH levels are measured. But they are not becoming acidic.

    Coral bleaching can result from pollution but is mostly natural, caused by coral animals ejecting their symbiotic zooxanthellae single-celled dinoflagellates, when seawaters become warmer or colder. Corals replace them with new species better adapted to the new temperatures – and then recover their former color and glory, as they have in Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, Hawaii’s reefs and elsewhere. Corals also grow as seas rise, just as they have since the last Pleistocene Ice Age, creating today’s splendid reefs.

    Polar bears are at their highest population levels in memory: as many as 31,000 of them. They’ve survived multiple ice ages, interglacial periods and warming episodes. They are hardly endangered.

    We face no climate crisis, no unprecedented warming, climate or extreme weather threat – manmade or natural. Equally important, proposals to replace fossil fuels with biofuel, wind, solar and battery power would be far more ecologically destructive than their climate crisis – and would severely harm food supplies, nutrition, jobs, living standards, health and life spans, in rich and poor countries alike.

    For the United States alone, replacing 100% of US gasoline and petrochemical feed stocks with ethanol would require some 700 million acres of biotech corn. That’s four times the land area of Texas turned into biofuel corn plantations – or soy/canola farms for biodiesel – leaving little land for food and wildlife.

    Let’s suppose we’re going to use wind power to replace: the 3.9 billion megawatt-hours of electricity that Americans consumed in 2018, coal and gas-fired backup power plants, natural gas for home heating, coal and gas for factories, and gasoline-powered vehicles. We’ll also use wind turbines to generate enough extra electricity, every windy day, to charge batteries for just seven straight windless days.

    We’ll also account for electricity loss along lengthy transmission lines, and every time we charge and discharge batteries. As we erect turbines in steadily lower quality wind locations, instead of generating full nameplate power maybe 33% of the year, on average, they will do so only 16% of the year.

    Instead of the 58,000 we have now, the United States would need some 14 million 400-foot-tall turbines, each one capable of generating 1.8 megawatts at full capacity, when the wind is blowing at the proper speed. Each turbine would need about 120 acres of open space and access roads, as at BP’s 50,000-acre Fowler Ridge wind energy factory in Indiana. That would total 1.7 billion acres – ten times the area of Texas … or most of the Lower 48 United States! Plus thousands of miles of new transmission lines!

    Their bird-butchering blades would wipe out raptors, other birds and bats across much of America. Would Extinction Rebellion go apoplectic? or not give a spotted owl hoot, since wind turbines are “eco-friendly”?

    Manufacturing those wind turbines would require something on the order of 15 billion tons of steel, copper, rare earth metals, concrete, petroleum-based composites, gravel and other raw materials. Extracting them would require a hundredfold increase in global mining: removing hundreds of billions of tons of earth and rock overburden, and crushing and processing tens of billions of tons of ore.

    Imagine the cumulative land use, eminent domain, property rights, environmental and wildlife impacts.

    Using batteries to replace coal and gas-fired backup power plants for intermittent, weather-dependent wind facilities would require some one billion 100-kilowatt-hour, 1,000-pound lithium and cobalt-based Tesla battery packs – and still more mining and raw materials. And that doesn’t include extra battery storage for the cars, trucks and buses that Green New Dealers want to replace with electric vehicles.

    Climate Crisis True Believers proudly proclaim themselves environmental socialists, while obstinately ignoring and suppressing these climate and energy realities. They certainly promote a political-economic system under which central government controls the means of production, while limiting private property rights or replacing them with communal ownership. That’s classic socialism.

    Eco-fascism
    But what they really want is eco-fascism: an even more extreme and intolerant system under which an authoritarian national or international government does not own businesses and industries outright, but dictates what they can make, do, sell and say – while redistributing wealth and property, employing laws, intimidation, and Antifa-style violence to control people’s thinking, speech and access to information.

    Along with Google, Face Book, YouTube, Twitter, Wikipedia, universities and the “mainstream” media – they try to censor, marginalize, ostracize, disinvite, shadow-ban, electronic book burn, and algorithm-eradicate differing, alternative, contrarian evidence, analyses and viewpoints on energy and climate.

    They got Dr. Peter Ridd fired for exposing fabrications about the Great Barrier Reef’s demise – and Dr. Susan Crockford cashiered for daring to challenge bogus claims about polar bears. Robert Kennedy Jr., Senator Sheldon Whitehouse and others even want climate and energy dissenters prosecuted and jailed.

    We must keep speaking truth to power – to ensure that our future is not compromised by climate lies.

    This alleged policy leak is a give-away

    Effectively the leaders of extinction rebellion are telling their foot soldiers to prepare for conditions of such chaos that their citizen assemblies will be able to run things

    They expect chaos.

    What would create it?

    Greta has given us a clue when she talks about wanting to see the line of co2 emissions dipping within a year, and when she describes eternal economic growth as a myth. They are preparing to attack the actual economic process itself.

    Let’s say you drastically curtail air travel or hike fuel prices. Social cohesion and stability generally break down very quickly when these systems are altered too quickly

    If you are a panicked youth without a grasp of the sensitivity and vulnerability of our economic support systems you might cause huge damage for little gain

    That is why any push back against this new fascism needs to be based on utilising the market to find tech solutions ASAP , but also a more socialistic holistic strategic approach.

    Even if we think that the climate will cool soon, it might be better to comply with some of their demands to avoid more militancy. Even peaceful
    Protesters can bring a modern economy to a halt if they are determined
    we have subcontracted the business of healing people to Companies who profit from sickness.

    A repost from (here):

    Could there be another reason for electricity shutdowns in California?

    Richard Trzupek The Epoch Times
    Fri, 01 Nov 2019 00:00 UTC


    Wind turbines in California © David McNew/Getty Images

    According to the official, widely reported story, Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) shut down substantial portions of its electric transmission system in northern California as a precautionary measure.

    Citing high wind speeds they described as "historic," the utility claims that if they didn't turn off the grid, wind-caused damage to their infrastructure could start more wildfires in the area.

    Perhaps that's true. Perhaps. This tale presumes that the folks who designed and maintain PG&E's transmission system are unaware of or ignored the need to design it to withstand severe weather events, and that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) allowed the utility to do so.

    Ignorance and incompetence happens, to be sure, but there's much about this story that doesn't smell right — and it's disappointing that most journalists and elected officials are apparently accepting it without question.

    Take, for example, this statement from a Fox News story about the Kincade Fires: "A PG&E meteorologist said it's 'likely that many trees will fall, branches will break,' which could damage utility infrastructure and start a fire."

    Did you ever notice how utilities cut wide swaths of trees away when transmission lines pass through forests? There's a reason for that: When trees fall and branches break the grid can still function.

    So, if badly designed and poorly maintained infrastructure is not the reason PG&E cut power to millions of Californians, what might have prompted them to do so? Could it be that PG&E's heavy reliance on renewable energy means they don't have the power to send when an "historic" weather event occurs?

    Wind Speed Limits
    The two most popular forms of renewable energy come with operating limitations. With solar power the constraint is obvious: the availability of sunlight. One does not generate solar power at night and energy generation drops off with increasing degrees of cloud cover during the day.

    The main operating constraint of wind power is, of course, wind speed. At the low end of the scale, you need about a 6 or 7 mph wind to get a turbine moving. This is called the "cut-in speed." To generate maximum power, about a 30 mph wind is typically required. But, if the wind speed is too high, the wind turbine will shut down. This is called the "cut-out speed," and it's about 55 mph for most modern wind turbines.

    It may seem odd that wind turbines have a cut-out speed, but there's a very good reason for it. Each wind turbine rotor is connected to an electric generator housed in the turbine nacelle. The connection is made through a gearbox that is sized to turn the generator at the precise speed required to produce 60 Hertz AC power.

    The blades of the wind turbine are airfoils, just like the wings of an airplane. Adjusting the pitch (angle) of the blades allows the rotor to maintain constant speed, which in turn allows the generator to maintain the constant speed it needs to safely deliver power to the grid. However, there's a limit to blade pitch adjustment. When the wind is blowing so hard that pitch adjustment is no longer possible, the turbine shuts down. That's the cut-out speed.

    Now consider how California's power generation profile has changed. According to Energy Information Administration data, the state generated 74.3 percent of its electricity from traditional sources — fossil fuels and nuclear — in 2001. Hydroelectric, geothermal, and biomass-generated power accounted for most of the remaining 25.7 percent, with wind and solar providing only 1.98 percent of the total.

    By 2018, the state's renewable portfolio had jumped to 43.8 percent of total generation, with wind and solar now accounting for 17.9 percent of total generation. That's a lot of power to depend on from inherently unreliable sources. Thus, it would not be at all surprising to learn that PG&E didn't stop delivering power out of fear of starting fires, but because it knew it wouldn't have power to deliver once high winds shut down all those wind turbines.

    ROSA KOIRE ~ "NWO 5G Climate Change Feminist Transgender U.N.Agenda 21" [Age Of Truth TV]
    12/3/19
    (An earlier interview with Rosa is in post # 41 above: https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...=1#post1318576 )
    As reviewed by Alexandra Bruce of Forbidden Knowledge:
    "ROSA KOIRE: AGENDA 2030 IS THE NWO
    For over a decade, Rosa Koire has been doing amazing work, educating people about UN Agenda 21 (aka 2030).

    In the past year, with the histrionics of Greta Thunberg, AOC and the Green New Deal, the world needs to understand that this climate alarmism is not just an elaborate kickback and carbon derivatives financial scheme, it represents a totalitarian takeover of our national sovereignty and of our individual rights.

    Koire joins Danish YouTuber, Lucas Alexander of Age of Truth TV, who asks her to describe Agenda 21, to which she responds:

    “It is the action plan to inventory and control all land, all water, all minerals, all plants, all animals, all construction, all means of production, all energy, all education, law enforcement and judicial systems; all information, all food and all human beings on the planet.

    “It is an inventory and control plan. It is totally comprehensive and it is not some dusty old plan. It is a real plan affecting you right now. There’s a good chance that you were in one of the 178 nations plus the Vatican which agreed to this plan in 1992 – and it’s a global plan that’s implemented locally…

    “If it didn’t look good, you wouldn’t be falling for it…The story is that 'we’re gonna save the planet with this environmental plan'.”

    Koire explains that “21” refers to the 21st century. “It’s a 100-year plan…I’m sure that they would prefer to have it all wrapped up by 2050. That was the…goal year to have full regionalization implemented, which is the interim step to full globalization…

    “Globalization is, of course connected to a New World Order agenda, which all the presidents and prime ministers and movers and shakers have talked about, actually publicly during their time in office…

    “This is certainly not a new idea. You could take it all the way back to the 1880s, to the Fabian Socialists…”

    She explains how Marxist Socialism is revolutionary Socialism and how Fabian Socialism has a slow, gradualist approach, with the same goal.

    “The Globalist controllers, they try everything out, so you see violent overthrow in some places and you see slow penetration [in others], which is done with the educational system and of course, media and general culture.

    “Globalization…is the the full standardization of all systems…we’re talking about educational, legal systems, monetary systems…

    “If you’re going to control everything centrally, which is really what full globalization is all about, it’s about removing all limits, all borders, all boundaries, all regulations on the huge mega-corporations…

    “With full centralization, you need standardization, because you have to match up all these systems together. If you’ve got a different legal system, different regulations in different countries, or even in within your own country, you need to bring those all into conformity with one another so you can centrally control them…”

    Climate alarmism is the latest iteration of the Club of Rome’s 1972 “Limits to Growth” program, which started out obsessed with population growth but that has now become obsessed with zero carbon emissions.

    We all want to be good stewards of our beautiful planet. Environmental toxicity and plastic pollution are real issues that need to be solved but we should not be fooled by the totalitarian Trojan Horse that is the Green New Deal, which is Agenda 21 by another name." "

    Agenda 21 Explained

    Thanks to James Newell for posting the following here:
    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...=1#post1327193
    (It's a good history of Agenda 21 and the effects up to 2011. )

    Quote Greta is definitely a pawn that is being used as a PR piece in the great scam to own the world.
    5G is part of it, enforced vaccines are part of it, no rights to have land is part of it, carbon taxes is part of it.

    One of the more brilliant ways the globalists are/ HAVE implemented their plan for total world communist takeover is through Agenda 21, Agenda 30 is the wrap up. By 2050 if we don't all get much more active I am afraid we have had it as a populace.

    Here is an excellent video about 1:23 hr or so long that explains how they get the rules in on the various countries. He was talking about the US but I am pretty sure they have this in very good all over the planet. It explains how they can bypass the countries laws and the lawful landowners have no say.
    Watch it please : https://truthseeker.se/agenda-21-explained/
    Here is the video:

    From the youtube page:
    "Agenda 21 EXPLAINED, full version
    Dec 23, 2011 John Anthony

    For more information go to: www.sustainablefreedomlab.org

    This detailed presentation clearly explains the connection between sustainable development and Agenda 21 as defined by the UN. In depth research shows how Agenda 21 will ultimately compromise your property rights.

    Regarding Ms. Bruntdland: Some have suggested she is merely a Democrat and I am way off base. First off, Norway does not have a Democratic Party, but rather Socialist democrats. Hopefully there is a difference. Internet research can be a challenge, so I respect those who engage in it! However, check out the XX Congress of the Socialist International in NY. Gro was the first VP of the Socialist International whose goal is to interact with labour, social democrats and socialists worldwide to spread the socialist concept of democracy. It is quite possible to be member of the Democratic Party and a Socialist at the same time. It is members like Gro whose desire it is to move the Democratic party more toward the Social Democratic Party.

    I also want to thank "6or8pack" for pointing out my error in mentioning that Betty Perry's nose was injured by handcuffs. In fact, she slipped during her interaction with officers and hit her nose on the steps. Betty was aware of local ordinances, but chose to ignore them. This landed her in the holding pen. This error is mine.

    Some have suggested they have "read Agenda 21 " and there is nothing dangerous in the book and besides, the document has no power to override their Constitutional right to own and control private property.

    To read the book alone, without reading the preceeding and following documentation and activites would be somewhat like looking at a map of Brazil and feeling you now know how Brazilians think and feel.

    The name A21 refers not only to the actual book, but to the entire sustainable development movement as defined by the United Nations dating back to the 1970's through today. That is why it is important to not only listen to the entire video, but research on your own to gain more information. Since this presentation was completed vast new volumes of information have been compiled. Check the sources in the back of the presentation and the United Nation's own websites to draw your own conclusions.

    Thanks for viewing the video and for your observations. John "

    Here is another good presentation by Rosa Koire about Agenda 21 made back in 2013 at the Open Mind Conference in Denmark.

    Behind the green mask UN Agenda 21
    Rosa Koire is the executive director of the Post Sustainability Institute. Impacting every aspect of our lives, UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development is a corporate manipulation using the Green Mask of environmental concern to forward a globalist plan. Rosa speaks across the world and is a regular blogger on her website Democrats Against UN Agenda 21 dot com. Her book, BEHIND THE GREEN MASK: UN Agenda 21 is available on Amazon.com, Kindle, and Nook, and at her website. Websites: www.DemocratsAgainstUNAgenda21.com www.PostSustainabilityInstitute.org.Agenda

    Last but not least a good presentation by David Icke.

    Agenda 21 or Agenda 2030 The Plan To Kill You – David Icke – The United Nations Depopulation Plan The global cabal of U.N. Agenda 21 is behind global warming, regionalism, zoning, land and water use control, wealth redistribution, weakening and eventual replacement of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency, global warming, cap and trade, Smart Grid, Smart Meters, carbon taxes, high gasoline prices, global citizens, IB World Schools, Common Core nationalized education standards, biofuels, Marxist advancement across the globe, food control, water access control via the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST), gun control, health control, the Arab Spring/Winter, unchecked illegal immigration, and they are unstoppable.’

    Even if there were NO humans on planet Earth the climate will change ANYWAY ... it is called: "4 Seasons" and it happens for millions of years ... Four seasons happen because of the tilt of the Earth's axis. At different times of the year, the sun's rays hit different parts of the globe more directly .... On top of that we have every 11 years CYCLICAL SOLAR STORMS affecting the climate of ALL Planets in our Solar System! ... Like having more Earth Quakes & much more Volcano Activities on the whole planet! (am not even mentioning Cosmic Gamma Rays fluctuation hitting the Earth in highs & lows) ... and they want to DENY all of that happens without human help without human interference ...

    So who is the real climate denier and who is the climate-realist? ... The scale of non-human effects on Cyclical Climate Change is so vast and so big they decided to IGNORE all of it to demonize anyone who challenges their version of human climate effects. At the same time they willfully ignore different types of overt & covert GEOENGINEERING projects creating artificial local weather extremes and blame it in CO2 what plants breathe for f sake!

    They even deny Global Cooling & Warming (Change) trends happened for millions of years when we had no human created pollution of any kind. The MASSIVE FRAUD (and systematical brainwashing) that is going on is NOT only how much the scale is we humans affect the climate trend also how much we suppose to "correct" it with our so called CO2 emissions that ALL plants need to breathe! ... This "Global Carbon Tax" aka "Global Governance" Agenda is connected to A.I. 5G Smart Surveillance Grid Micromanaging everybody to "Save The Earth" BS ... Pushing for a Totalitarian Collectivism punishing everybody who is against it ... Just study what happens in Chinese "Social Credit System" (Black Mirror Episode going for real!) that soon will be implemented everywhere between now and 2030. You losing privileges if you do not bow down (comply) to their Orwellian system based upon massive lies & deception. Tyrannical Agenda 21 is real and ignoring it will not make it go away. You can ignore all what I just said but you can not ignore the consequences of what is to come. You do not have to be a rocket scientist to see what their true motives are.

    Michael Moore Presents: Planet of the Humans | Full Documentary | Directed by Jeff Gibbs


    https://www.rt.com/op-ed/487297-mich...les-hypocrisy/

    Quote Indeed, the documentary’s critics and its maker differ only on their willingness to perpetuate the comforting delusion that the same people who created the climate change “crisis” could be trusted to solve it. So while these critics may deride Moore as an eco-fascist, it’s the subjects of his film who truly deserve that moniker.

    As for who’s more dangerous – the companies suggesting biomass, living things like plants and animals, is a sustainable fuel on which to power the future; or a filmmaker pointing out their hypocrisy – that’s best left up to the viewer to decide.

    The Green Energy movement is a big scam.
    Criminals, scammers, incapable politicians are running the show!
    Every solar or wind power plant require a backup power plant that burns fossil fuel.

    New talk from Rosa Koire on the "Great Reset" & Agenda 21
    Rosa Koire Explains Agenda 21 and the Great Reset
    https://forbiddenknowledgetv.net/ros...e-great-reset/
    1/24/21

    "All roads lead to Agenda 21.

    The Great Reset, the Paris Accord, the Internet of Things, 5G, COVID 19, "Systemic Racism", the Green New Deal, the stolen election and every Executive Order signed by Joe Biden last week all lead to Agenda 21, which is the banksters' name for the New World Order.

    And nobody knows more about it than Rosa Koire, who joins Dave Cullen from Computing Forever to discuss.

    Agenda 21 is the action plan to inventory and control all land, all water, all minerals, all plants, all animals, all construction, all means of production, all energy, all education, law enforcement and judicial systems; all information, all food and all human beings on the planet.

    "It is an inventory and control plan. It's about data-sharing, it's about money transferring from the developed nations to the lesser-developed nations and ultimately, it's about destroying your ability to have a voice, destroying your ability to have representative government. It's about changing your government to 'governance'…entirely destroying your ability to be free and to be independent.

    "And the goal, of course is to transfer power from local- and individuals to a global governance system. You can't do that all at once, so it's been a long process and you see it as exactly what you're seeing right now: It's a plan to disrupt and destroy the existing system. It's a plan of transformation and control – and that's what we're living through right now…

    "What this plan does is it destroys the concept of the nation-state and it completely destroys it and devolves it into the city-states or regions. And these are not individual cities, like San Francisco or New York, these are regions that are governed by megacities, which are huge, enormous cities that could be part of Washington State, part of Oregon, part of Idaho and part of British Columbia.

    "So, it breaks the national borders, it breaks state borders, it breaks, of course, county and city borders and this is about destroying your ability to be able actually control what it is that happens to you…

    "It's a global plan that's implemented locally…it's a stealth plan and you'll never see it called 'Agenda 21'…

    "If they could have arranged an alien landing, they would have done that…global crisis requires a global response and that justifies global governance. What could be more global than Climate Change? Well, how about a pandemic?”

    She says this plan has existed openly on paper since the 1880s with the Fabian Society, attracting luminaries like HG Wells, George Bernard Shaw and Bertrand Russell but it tends to hide behind environmentalist causes and recently behind COVID-19 and "systemic racism". It wasn't until now that the technology existed to make their dreams come true.

    The destruction of local police forces is intended to make way for more automated policing by means of Artificial Intelligence and drones and robots. "Then, you'll have a real dangerous situation where you're not able to reason with a real human being," she says.

    "It's about depopulation, because you know what? You are just not worth it. You use too much. You are taking up too much room. This is what the Climate Change thing is all about. You are using too much energy, too much water and too much land and you need to be isolated and moved into the high-density city center, where you can be more easily controlled and managed and surveilled – and that's what this is doing to you right now."

    As for solutions to this ominous threat, Rosa says that awareness is the first step in the Resistance and action is the second step.

    "We're being conditioned to be passive right now. We're being conditioned to click a "Like" and think we're being a political activist…I don't mean to insult you – but let me insult you, here: you don't even know where your city council meets. You think it doesn't matter. But those are the people who make the rules that you live under, right there in your town and you better believe it does matter.

    "And don't tell me that your government is so bad that you can't do anything about it…you've let it get that way and if you continue to let it get that way, it ain't going to get better.

    "So, what you need to do is…be your government. We're in the endgame here, there's not a lot of time left, you should have been doing this a while ago but…you need to know what Agenda 21 looks like and recognize it, so when you see it in your city, you can go and talk about it, you can get yourself elected – or not get elected – but talk about it.

    "You can stand up at your city council. Every item on that agenda is probably related to Agenda 21, if you know what you're looking for...

    "But just knowing without doing something about it is not enough…so you have to become more politically-active and you have to not be a First Adopter…

    "You're going to see Virtual Reality, that's going to replace your reality, it's going to be so much 'better'…Once you do that, your life is over. You’re going to want this stuff. They're making it so that you want it…We have to fight this together. We have to resist."

    It's never been more vital to hear what Rosa has to say than right now."

    Christopher James Clark wrote "Triumph of Consciousness: Overcoming False Environmentalism, Lapdog Media and Global Government".

    Great, detailed and inspired work on globalist efforts to destroy human rights. He was/is a master chef who worked for some of the global elite and was able to gain a unique insight into the truth of the heartless, and inhumane activities driving globalism.

    In 2011 I used his book, Rosa Koire's "Behind The Green Mask" and another detailed, yet highly deceptive book on the false future of careers in the environmental fields as the basis for the last class thesis I created while getting a degree in Earth Building Sciences, just as the college was shutting down it's small, integrated, Earth Building, Sustainable Tech and Renewable Energy Department. Then I spent a short time in the bio-fuels field, which was a highly uninformed curriculum data set, backed up by grants that were never meant to create anything practical as far as developing any industrial base, nor a work force to sustain it into the future.

    When I looked into the sustainability of all of those industries I found that they weren't meant to last long at all and were politically motivated to feed the greed and increase population control, not to provide equitable careers, treat the environment with balance, nor actually engage the local citizens in decision making, directly impacting the entire scope of their lives without their input.

    I even ran into the small group of free energy enthusiasts, some who were teachers, but they were even more confined, monitored and completely, scientifically neutered by those who ran and funded their groups, like a group of school grade children who were completely unaware and uninterested in implementing their ideas and inventions freely. Unless all of these innovations can be developed locally, and run personally, I don't see their promotion as anything but subterfuge.

    The future can only be forwarded with a focus on the consciousness of our human sensibilities, which by definition are environmental. It really isn't all that complicated, as the truthful efforts are quickly self evident.

    I think once the COVID situation has settled down more or less (however that will look like) we will see massive protests in this regard by all the people who awakened last year and became politically involved. I’m looking forward to see this Agenda massively challenged.

    Why companies’ ‘net-zero’ emissions pledges should trigger a healthy dose of skepticism
    (more at https://theconversation.com/why-comp...ticism-1563860

    Hundreds of companies, including major emitters like United Airlines, BP and Shell, have pledged to reduce their impact on climate change and reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. These plans sound ambitious, but what does it actually take to reach net-zero and, more importantly, will it be enough to slow climate change?

    As environmental policy and economics researchers, we study how companies make these net-zero pledges. Though the pledges make great press releases, net-zero is more complicated and potentially problematic than it may seem.

    What is ‘net-zero’ emissions?
    The gold standard for reaching net-zero emissions looks like this: A company identifies and reports all emissions it is responsible for creating, it reduces them as much as possible, and then – if it still has emissions it cannot reduce – it invests in projects that either prevent emissions elsewhere or pull carbon out of the air to reach a “net-zero” balance on paper.

    The process is complex and still largely unregulated and ill-defined. As a result, companies have a lot of discretion over how they report their emissions. For example, a multinational mining company might count emissions from extracting and processing ore but not the emissions produced by transporting it.

    Companies also have discretion over how much they rely on what are known as offsets – the projects they can fund to reduce emissions. The oil giant Shell, for example, projects that it will both achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and continue to produce high levels of fossil fuel through that year and beyond. How? It proposes to offset the bulk of its fossil-fuel-related emissions through massive nature-based projects that capture and store carbon, such as forest and ocean restoration. In fact, Shell alone plans to deploy more of these offsets by 2030 than were available globally in 2019.
