COP26 will be a heady mix of climate hysteria, fear-mongering, and quasi-religious worshiping at the altar of ‘The Science’

COP26 will be a heady mix of climate hysteria, fear-mongering, and quasi-religious worshiping at the altar of ‘The Science’

From every corner of the planet, private jets – responsible for 50% of all aviation emissions – have flown into Glasgow for the annual ‘Conference of the Parties’ (COP26).
As a participant at several UNFCCC conferences, I am proud that methodologies I created, funded, and advanced for more than a decade have helped make a difference in mitigating the impacts of climate change. Over the years, trillions of dollars have been deployed on climate change mitigation. But this latest gathering is a grotesque hypocritical charade.
The COP26 is the 26th meeting of the Conference of the Parties. This meeting of ‘world leaders’ represents the nearly two hundred countries that are members of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The participants gather to virtue-signal and create non-binding commitments, like the Paris Climate Agreement, without any independent verification of carbon compliance to these commitments, making ‘greenwashing’ a high probability.

PM Johnson calls on humanity to ‘defuse that bomb’ of climate change in Bond-inspired speech at COP26
This year's host of COP26 in Glasgow, UK Prime Minister ‘Blah, Blah, Blah’ Boris Johnson has promoted himself in the media with short, catchy phrases. Splashed across this weekend's broadsheets, Johnson ‘blah blah blahed’ about how COP26 is the “last chance to save the planet.” BoJo's other pearls of wisdom included “this is a moment of truth for humanity,” it’s “an opportunity for the world to stop climate change from getting out of control” and a “turning point for the world.”
Recently, Johnson's government released its budget, which is packed with unprecedented spending and record tax increases that will destroy the UK economy. After the budget’s release, Johnson touted the 3P discount off a pint of beer as some semblance of solace. BJ’s message seems to be ‘Let the Plebs drink beer!’
Johnson's budget was bad enough, but he also intends to cripple UK farming with a carbon tax on meat and dairy to ‘save the planet’. The elephant in the room that Johnson's government and the other COP26 participants fail to acknowledge is that China and its third world investments are responsible for 40+% of the world’s Co2 and Co2e global emissions per year. President Xi Jinping is not coming to the COP26 and has stated China will not cut their emissions until 2060. By contrast, the UK is responsible for only 1%. Even if Britain’s cuts got it to net zero, the results, while symbolic, would be statistically insignificant and devastate the UK economy.
The UK needs more knowledgeable ‘experts’ to implement practical climate mitigation solutions that will not destroy the economy. Sadly, Johnson’s comments are simply virtue-signaling, curated by his wife and Number 10's self-appointed PR guru, Carrie ‘Antoinette’ Johnson. The comments are fear-mongering propaganda that provide no solutions and will take a wrecking ball to the UK economy.
The ‘net zero’ objective of COP26 is inclusive of ‘equity’, and under that banner comes a demand to spend $100 trillion more on a Green New Deal (GND). It is neither green, new or affordable. It is an extension of the credit crisis bailouts for billionaires that began in 2008. Global central banking elites, like Mark Carney, called the 2008 program Quantitative Easing (QE). The US Federal Reserve's Ben Bernanke and Janet Yellen assured the public the extraordinary bailouts were “temporary emergency measures,” but they are still doing QE today. These same elites will shift the blame for incompetent policies while creating fear with another crisis, Covid-19, climate change, a cyberattack or any other crisis that would allow them to print more money and divide the public.
The middle class is staring down the barrel of being taxed right out of existence with hyperinflation. They need to wake up and go on a general strike against this madness. The elites are seeking to control and dictate every aspect of our lives. The food we eat (meat and dairy are now bad), the transportation you take (too much Co2), where you live, how you live and what you can and cannot do – it’s the end of freedom.
