Officials Move to Seize Land from American Farmers to Advance Green Agenda

Tennessee government officials have moved to seize land from American farmers in an effort to meet the goals of Democrat President Joe Biden’s green agenda.



The state is suing to confiscate farmland just west of Memphis that will be repurposed to build a new multi-billion dollar electric vehicle (EV) plant.



Ford Motor Company has announced plans to build a $5.6 billion electric truck and battery plant to be built in the rural area of Tennessee.



Officials in Tennessee are so eager to bend over backward to comply with the green agenda that the state is prepared to seize land from black farmers in order to facilitate Ford’s EV project.



Here’s a bit of the legislative contortions that led to the decision to build “Blue Oval City” in the Volunteer State, as reported by Reason:



In return for picking Tennessee, state lawmakers overwhelmingly approved legislation that would grant Ford $884 million in state incentives.



That includes a $500 million grant from the state’s current budget surplus and $384 million for site preparation, including $200 million for road improvements and $138.2 million for infrastructure and demolition services.



The bill also apportioned $745,100 to fund the Megasite Authority of West Tennessee, an 11-person board with the power to execute contracts on behalf of the development.



It can also take privately-owned land, via eminent domain, in order to facilitate construction of the facility and supporting infrastructure.



Eminent domain could not be more antithetical to the American concept of the primacy of private property.



Eminent domain refers to the authority claimed by the government and its agents to seize private property for public use.



The land can be taken against the will of the landowner provided the owner receives “just compensation” for his property.



Supporters of this scheme point to the Fifth Amendment as the authority.



The relevant part of the Fifth Amendment reads:


[N]or shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.



Lawmakers in Tennessee are planning to use eminent domain in their efforts to confiscate the land from farmers.



Tennessee Lookout reports:



According to the Tennessee Department of Transportation, the state is seeking 35 separate tracts, either through purchase or eminent domain, in order to construct a series of road connections and widenings that will link the 4,100-acre BlueOval Ford campus to the new Exit 39 off I-40 to accommodate throngs of workers and truck traffic.



Thus far, the state has taken possession of 15 tracts — two through court proceedings, Nichole Lawrence, a spokesperson said.



Of the remaining 20 tracks, Lawrence said the state is in negotiation with property owners.



It’s unclear how many land owners the state has sued.



In Haywood County alone, court records show, the state has filed seven lawsuits seeking to take property for the new interchange.



The government is suing private property owners and asking the judiciary to collude with them.



The move seeks to deny to the landowners the most basic benefit of government: the protection of the right of private property.



One of the landowners being targeted by the state government is Marvin Sanderlin, a longtime local farmer with 400 acres.



According to court documents, the state is planning to seize 10 acres of his land.



Sanderlin’s land stands between the Ford plant and the interstate.



After Sanderlin rejected the state’s offer of $3,750 per acre, the state filed the complaint in court.



The offer of $3,750 per acre is supposedly in line with the so-called “just compensation.”



However, land in the area was selling for about $10,000 per acre before the announcement of the planned construction of the Ford plant.



Since the announcement, the value has skyrocketed.



Some listings are offering land in the area for as much as $200,000 an acre.



With those numbers in mind, under no reasonable definition would an offer of $3,750 an acre qualify as “just compensation.”



As Sanderlin explained it, as quoted by the Tennessee Lookout:



You can’t buy no land here for $3,500 an acre.



You can’t buy a swamp here for $3,500.



I told them this is the biggest ripoff there is.



They want your land, but they don’t want you to participate in the wealth.



As it stands, the state is advancing its lawsuits seeking to force landowners to “sell” their property for far below market value.



Tennessee officials are determined to keep their $884 million promise to Ford and comply with Biden’s green agenda.



To meet these goals, however, will mean destroying the very thing the government was instituted by people to protect: the right to property.

Governments Urged to Close All Airports by 2050 to Meet ‘Climate Target’

Frank Bergman
April 16, 2023 - 12:57 pm


Governments are being argued to close all airports and end public air travel in order to meet the global “climate target” by 2050.



Professor Norman Fenton obtained a copy of the report that was produced to advise the UK government on what measures it will need to take to meet its “net zero” goal.



The meet the already-established goals of the climate agenda, governments will need to close small airports by 2030, with the rest closed and all air travel banned by 2050.



The report also states that internal combustion engine cars must be banned by 2030, with all highway use, including electric vehicles, restricted to 60 percent of the level today.



Aside from travel, the report also targets the food supply and urges governments to ban the sale of beef and lamb.

Prior to his retirement, Dr. Norman was the Professor of Risk Information Management in the School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science at the Queen Mary University of London.



Following his post, which went viral, Norman was invited to appear on Laura Ingraham’s Fox News show to discuss the bombshell report.



WATCH:






The report, assembled by a team of academics at Oxford University and Imperial College London for the British Government, states that to obey the law of the Climate Change Act, the public will be required to stop doing anything that causes emissions, regardless of its energy source.



This means that all UK airports will be ordered to close, eating beef and lamb will be banned, and construction of new buildings must cease, in order to meet the legal commitment of zero emissions by 2050.



The report says that all airports should close between 2020 and 2029 with the exception of Heathrow, Glasgow, and Belfast.



These major airports would close between 2030 and 2049.



In one of the most incredible reports about UK climate policy to date, the academics also call for eating beef and lamb to be banned.



The public will also be forced to turn their heating down at home and wear more clothes to keep warm instead.



To meet the green agenda goals, the report states that the national consumption of beef and lamb must drop by 50% between 2020 and 2029.



Then between 2030 and 2049 beef and lamb will be “phased out”.



The report also confirms that construction of new buildings must cease by 2050:



The underlying point is that any asset which uses carbon will have essentially zero value in 2050.



This in turn may encourage greater use in the run up to 2050 – for example, putting up new buildings at a much faster rate for the next 30 years, knowing that construction must then halt.



The report was released in November 2019 and was authored by “UK Fires,” a collaboration between the Universities of Cambridge, Oxford, Nottingham, Bath, and Imperial College London.



Entitled “Absolute Zero,” the report is a research collaboration in which the authors reveal what the UK must do to meet its legal requirement to reach net zero emissions by 2050.



However, the timeline of events may speed up significantly because the UK government enshrined a new target in law in April 2021 to slash emissions by 78% by the year 2035.



The authors of the report state the key messages are as follows:



In addition to reducing our energy demand, delivering zero emissions with today’s technologies requires the phasing out of flying, shipping, lamb and beef, blast-furnace steel and cement.



They also state this on jobs and locations:



There are two key implications for how we live our lives: first, buildings will become much more expensive because the restrictions on building which generate substantial scarcities; second, transport will become much more expensive because the limits on air travel will generate excess demand for other forms of transport.



Those who are starting secondary school now, in 2019, will be 43 in 2050. Thinking about what education is appropriate for a very different set of industries is a key question.



Should we still be training airplane pilots? Or aeronautical engineers?



And they state this on the implementation of the requirements:



The changes in behavior to achieve Absolute Zero are clearly substantial. In principle, these changes could be induced through changing prices and thus providing clear incentives for behavior to change.



The alternative is that the government prohibits certain types of behavior and regulates on production processes.



The report has emerged amid increasing efforts to crack down on public freedoms in the name of fighting “climate change.”



As Slay News reported last year, the World Economic Forum (WEF) argues that restrictions during the pandemic prove that “billions” would also comply with “climate lockdowns.”

JPMorgan: Government Must Seize Private Land from Citizens to Fight ‘Climate Change’

Frank BergmanApril 6, 2023 - 12:45 pm


JPMorgan Chase & Co. President and CEO Jamie Dimon has issued a statement calling on the federal government to begin seizing privately-owned property from citizens and repurposing the land to fight “climate change.”



Multibillionaire Dimon, the former head of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, insists that governments will need to seize private land for the creation of more green energy production sites.



Dimon made the call in an extensive letter to shareholders of America’s largest bank published this week.



The letter accompanied the bank’s annual report for 2022.



Dimon claims there is a need for affordable energy immediately and a need for decarbonization for tomorrow.



While discussing the war in Ukraine and climate change, Dimon declared that the world must move away from fossil fuels, such as oil and gas.



“We may even need to evoke eminent domain—we simply are not getting the adequate investments fast enough for grid, solar, wind, and pipeline initiatives,” Dimon wrote.



Eminent domain refers to a government seizing private land or property, against the landowner’s will, and converting it for public use while “compensating” the owner.



He continued mentioning the Inflation Reduction Act and other U.S. laws that “hold the potential to unlock over $1 trillion in clean technology development” and that they “need to be implemented effectively.”



Dimon called for the cooperation of governments, businesses, and non-governmental organizations to create policy changes that “comprehensively address fundamental issues that are holding us back.


“Massive global investment in clean energy technologies must be done and must continue to grow year-over-year.”



Dimon says that as a result of green energy investment the private sector will see growth in investment and job openings over the next decade.



Meanwhile, Dimon is due to soon be interviewed under oath over his bank’s relationship with its former client – deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.



According to Brad Edwards, a lawyer representing women who claim they were sexually abused by Epstein, the deposition is expected in early May.



The women are suing JPMorgan for allegedly enabling the financier’s sex trafficking.



Epstein had been a JPMorgan client from 2000 to 2013,



He remained a client of the bank for five years after he pleaded guilty to a child sex charge in Florida.

Alarmists Claim ‘Rice Is to Blame’ for ‘Global Warming,’ Push for Ban

Frank Bergman
April 18, 2023 - 12:30 pm


Climate alarmists are now claiming that “rice is to blame” for “global warming” and are pushing for a ban of the cereal grain food to meet the goals of the green agenda.



Rice is a good source of protein and is a vital staple food in many parts of the world.



Domesticated rice is the most widely consumed staple food for over half of the world’s human population, particularly in Asia and Africa.



However, radical green agenda globalists are now alleging that “rice can’t be ignored” if the “world wants to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.”



Corporate media outlet AFP posted a video to social media alleging that rice fields are a major contributor toward “climate change.”



“Rice is to blame for around 10 percent of global emissions of methane, a gas that over two decades, traps about 80 times as much heat as carbon dioxide,” AFP claims.



“Scientists say that if the world wants to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, rice cannot be ignored.”

— AFP News Agency (@afp) April 16, 2023



The Food and Agriculture Organization notes that “Rice is one of the most important staple foods in the world.



“Over 50 percent of the world’s population depends on rice for about 80 percent of its food requirements.



“About 95 percent of the global output of rice is produced and consumed in developing countries.”



The video was met with a backlash on Twitter.

Some social media commenters linked the push to the World Economic Forum (WEF).

The WEF and its members repeatedly push for certain foods to be banned and for the public to switch to eating bugs in an effort to “save the planet.”

“Under the global methane pledge, Vietnam and several other major rice producers in Asia have vowed to cut emissions by 30% by 2020 and 2023, but the two largest producers, Chin and India, failed to sign,” AFP reported.

This is an older story, but in case you haven't seen it:


Researchers Back WEF: Mass Public Consumption of ‘Beetleburgers’ Will ‘Save the Planet’

Frank Bergman
January 16, 2023 - 12:56 pm


A group of researchers has backed calls from the World Economic Forum (WEF) to push for the mass public consumption of bugs and so-called “beetleburgers,” arguing that it could save the planet.



According to a study, conducted by French biotech company Ynsect, food made from mealworms and insect larvae could help fight “climate change” and feed the world if it is put into mass production and replaces meat.



Ynsect insists that the process of creating “meat” from creepy crawlers’ larvae uses a fraction of the land and water and emits a smaller carbon footprint in comparison to traditional farming.



“Mixed with sugar, the beetles supposedly taste just like real meat,” the researchers claim.



“They could also become alternatives to sausages or chicken nuggets.”



Conveniently, Ynsect plans to make the mass public consumption of bugs a reality and is currently developing a global network of insect farms, including nurseries and slaughterhouses.



A pilot plant has already been set up in France, the company revealed.



“We are in full control of the chain of production,” says Ynsect general manager Benjamin Armenjon, according to a statement from SWNS.



“That gives us strength in terms of quality, security, and safety.”



In the “meat” production facility, robot arms and automated conveyor belts transport stacks of red trays in every direction, according to Study Finds.



They are filled with billions of Tenebrio Molitor beetle larvae.



According to Ynsect, the dried bugs are more than 50 percent protein and rich in fiber and fats as well.



They can be turned into protein powders, shakes, burgers, cereal bars, and even cooking oils at a fraction of the environmental cost of traditional farming, the company claims.



Study Finds notes:



For every kilogram of protein, Ynsect uses 98 percent less land and emits 40 times less carbon than beef.



It also uses 40 times less water than pork production.



The idea of the public masses being fed bugs has been promoted by global elites for some time.


Last year, the World Economic Forum promoted the European Union’s new plan to use mealworms in food.



According to the WEF, reducing meat consumption by feeding bugs to the public will help fight “climate change.”



“Livestock around the world is responsible for around 14.5% of all greenhouse gas emissions relating to human activity,” the EU’s paper says.



“The need for land – whether for grazing animals or growing crops to feed animals – is the single greatest driver of deforestation, with major consequences for biodiversity loss.”



As Slay News reported last year, the WEF’s top advisor has called for the public to switch to eating laboratory-grown “synthetic meat” in an effort to fight “climate change.”



The WEF’s Yuval Noah Harari, who describes himself as a “futurist,” made a push for “cultured meat” products that are synthesized in laboratories during remarks at the International Institute of Management in Kyiv, Ukraine.



Harari argues that the public must start consuming synthetic foods because they are more “ecological” and “ethical” than meat from animal husbandry and slaughter, which he claims is “unsustainable.”



Harari was promoting the plan for switching to “cultured meat” which is being pushed by the WEF.



The WEF, founded and chaired by German economist Klaus Schwab, describes “cultured meat” as a “sustainable” substitute for human consumption of animals.



The organization claims that the world’s population must stop eating meat in order to “save the planet” from “carbon emissions.”



In its argument for the public eating “synthetic meat,” the WEF explains how the food products are grown in the lab:



The process of growing meat in a laboratory involves taking stem cells from a live animal and growing them in nutrient-rich conditions.



For example, a small biopsy of skeletal muscle is taken from a cow, from which the stem cells are isolated and grown in a bioreactor with cell culture media.



The cells are split into several cell types including muscle and fat cells.



This biomass is then processed to form the edible final product.



Harari framed human consumption of animals as unsustainable.



“We can find ways to provide what people need in more ecological and sustainable ways,” he said.



“This is the best course forward.”



As Slay News previously reported, Harari declared in a separate interview that “we just don’t need the vast majority of the population” in today’s world.



According to Harari, most of the general public has now become “redundant” and will be of little use to the global elite in the future.

The globalists are “coming for your food,” experts warn – “plant-based” tyranny will rule the world

(Natural News) The next phase of the forced transition to “green” living involves depriving everyday folks of access to meat and dairy – because such foods cause global warming, we are told.



You will abide by a “plant-based” diet at all times or else, was the message bellowing from the mouth of New York City Mayor Eric Adams this week as he told city residents that they have until the year 2030 to cut out the meat and dairy in order to meet the Big Apple’s new “emissions” goals.



Since Adams abides by his own “plant-based centered life,” he feels as though all New Yorkers – and all people everywhere – need to do the same in order to “cool” the planet and stop it from collapsing due to man-made climate change.



Following his announcement that food-based emissions across New York City will need to drop by at least 33 percent by the year 2030, experts said of Adams’ chilling message that “they’re coming for your food,” referring to the globalist plot to deprive the peons of meat and dairy.


Many additional cosmopolitan cities are joining NYC in phasing out meat and dairy


The globalists themselves, of course, will continue gorging on filet mignon, caviar, and baby blood while the rest of the world is forced to eat crickets, cockroaches, and all things soy.



“First they came for your energy,” warned Marc Morano, author of “The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown.” “Then they came for your gas-powered cars, your freedom of movement, your cheap flights. Now they’re coming for your food.”



New York City would, of course, be ground zero for this type of thing. It is, after all, one of the strongholds of mystery Babylonian occultism, and the place where many globalists live and do their dirty work.



Adams revealed during his speech that many other mayors from cities around the world are joining him in seeking to reduce their respective cities’ food emissions by one-third over the next seven years. They are also “challenging our private sector partners to join us by cutting their food emissions by 25 percent in the same time period.”



In other words, the next seven-year Shemitah cycle, which begins this year, will really bring the house down in terms of clamping down on people’s eating habits – at least this is the goal of the globalists, who plan to usher the human herd into permanent slavery, including food slavery, during this time period.



Adams has already forced plant-based meal options as the primary ones available at schools and hospitals, even though almost nobody at these institutions agreed to do such a thing.



“We already know that a plant-powered diet is better for your physical and mental health, and I am living proof of that,” Adams declared about his decision to make the change. “But the reality is that thanks to this new inventory, we’re finding out it is better for the planet.”



Morano, who appeared with Brian Kilmeade of Fox News Tonight, warned that Adams and his ilk are planning to monitor what everyone eats from here on out to make sure people’s diets align with the ideals of the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) scoring guidelines outlined by globalism.



“What’s coming next are the restrictions,” he explained. “We are already seeing it globally with a net-zero commitment. They’re going after high-yield agriculture trying to collapse them.”

EU Backs Plans to Confiscate Farms to Meet Climate Goals

Frank BergmanMay 5, 2023 - 12:57 pm




The European Union has backed plans put forward by the Dutch government to confiscate and shut down thousands of farms in order to meet the goals set out by the global climate agenda.



The unelected European Commission in Brussels backed a scheme by the Netherlands Prime Minister Mark Rutte, an “agenda contributor” of the World Economic Forum (WEF).



On Tuesday, the governing arm of the European Union officially backed plans to force farmers off their lands in order to meet the EU’s Natura 2000 scheme which labels farms as so-called “peak” emitters of nitrogen.



The plan would offer farmers 120 percent of the value of their farm in a “buyout” scheme.



However, those who refuse would face the threat of being forced off the land without any financial compensation.



The move could see some 3,000 farms shut down.



It was unclear before this week whether the EU would permit such a scheme.



Many hoped the EU would have blocked plans as it could have potentially fallen afoul of regulations surrounding state aid or subsidies.



However, Brussels said that the plans were “necessary and appropriate” to fight “global warming” as they met the broader goals of the European Green Deal.



“The positive effects transcend any distortions of the free market,” the Commission added in a statement.



In addition to the “buyout” plan for the “peak” emitting farms, the government is also planning a separate scheme that would give dairy, pig, and poultry farmers a deal for 100 percent of the value of their farms.



In total, some 1.4 billion euros is expected to be set aside for both farm shutdown schemes.



Should the plan go ahead, it would be a major blow to the farming industry in the Netherlands.



The nation is one of the most productive in Europe.



However, the plan will likely impact other countries as well, given that part of the condition of the buyout scheme is that the Dutch farmers would be prohibited from moving to other countries and starting up farms abroad.


The farmers’ knowledge and expertise would be squandered, leaving them with few options for work afterward.

Responding to the announcement from the EU, Dutch political commentator Eva Vlaardingerbroek said: “This is how they do it: they put a knife to the farmers’ throats.



“They make sure they don’t get their licenses renewed, they’re plaguing them with new rules & restrictions every day and then offer them a bride, knowing many will take it out of pure desperation. It’s all so vile.”



“I also highly doubt that prohibiting them to start over elsewhere in the EU is even legal,” Vlaardingerbroek added.



“The whole idea of the EU was supposed to be about freedom of movement and freedom of workers.



“This is some next-level USSR stuff.”



The plan to shut down thousands of farms is by no means a done deal, however.



It would still need to be managed mostly at the provincial level.



This may be complicated for the fledgling Rutte government as the upstart tractor protest backing Farmer–Citizen Movement (BBB) party not only became the single largest party in the Dutch Senate in March but also one of the largest parties at the provincial level where many of the farms are located.



There have also been some cracks within Rutte’s coalition, with the CDA party expressing doubt over the general nitrogen emission crackdown following the surprise victory of the BBB party.



Nevertheless, should be plan turn out to be a “success,” it will likely spread to other countries given that it aligns with the global green agenda of the World Economic Forum (WEF).



Other nations, including Germany, France, Ireland, and Canada have already been following the Netherlands’ lead.



Farms in the United States have also been coming under attack recently, as Slay News reported.

STARVE FOR THE CLIMATE: European Union partners with Dutch government to shut down dairy, cattle, pig, and poultry farms across the country

(Natural News) The “Climate Shutdowns” are here. The European Union is partnering with the Dutch government to permanently shut down dairy, cattle, pig, and poultry farms across the Netherlands. Just a year ago, the Dutch government announced a plan to reduce nitrogen emissions across the country by more than 50 percent by 2030.

On May 2, the European Commission approved a plan that would pay livestock farmers to shut down indefinitely in designated conservation areas if they agree to never start the same breeding activity elsewhere. The EU’s environmental regulations are a threat to basic economic freedoms and the repercussions will impact human rights and the food supply itself.



European Green Deal bribing small farmers to shut down permanently

Under the European Green Deal, governments are bribing small and mid-sized farmers to shut down their operations permanently because their facilities produce high levels of nitrogen. The nitrogen is now labeled a “pollutant” that should be cut by 50% across Europe. Under the Green Deal, it is “necessary and appropriate” to “improve the environmental conditions of the targeted areas and to allow a high quality, sustainable and environmentally friendly production,” and that involves shutting down hundreds of small farms. The Dutch government has budgeted roughly €1.47 billion ($1.62 billion) to pay off the farmers and shut them down for good.



The funds will be used to compensate the farmers “up to 100 percent” of the losses they incur after “voluntarily” agreeing to shutdown dairy, cattle, pig, and poultry breeding sites. The EU Commission is calling these buyouts “direct grants.”



Under the government’s plan, these new buy-outs of small and mid-sized farms are called “schemes.” The Dutch government will keep the schemes running until February of 2028, until most farming operations are consolidated into the hands of the few. The EU Commission claims that the schemes are “proportionate” and the compensation “brings about positive effects that outweigh any potential distortion of competition and trade in the European Union.”



Farmers are only eligible for the buy-outs if they can prove that they have produced for five consecutive years. The WEF globalists behind the new plan know that the Netherlands is a top exporter of meat and agricultural products around the world. According to the National Statistics Office, Dutch agricultural exports were worth €122.3 billion last year. Farmers are fighting back against the new environmental rules that threaten their very existence, but the Dutch government is conspiring with the WEF.



The EU is destroying fundamental freedoms and restricting food production, all for the “greater good”

Robbin Voorend is one such farmer who has spoken out about the European Green Deal. The government’s nitrogen emission schemes have already cut his livestock production by 90-95%. Dairy farmer Martin Neppelenbroek attests that the government culled 95% of his herd.



These schemes will not be enough to convince every farmer to shut down, so additional bribes and payouts will be included in the bigger plan. Under the €975 million ($1.77 billion) LBV-plus scheme, some farmers who shut down high-level nitrogen operations will receive up to 120% in compensation from the lost production capacity. Under the European Green Deal, member states may grant some farmers an additional 20% “green bonus” — if they shutdown their farms for “environmental” reasons.



Dutch political commentator Eva Vlaardingerbroek estimates that the EU buyouts could permanently shutdown 3,000 or more Dutch farms.



“This is how they do it: they put a knife to the farmers’ throats. They make sure they don’t get their licenses renewed, they’re plaguing them with new rules and restrictions every day and then offer them a bribe, knowing many will take it out of pure desperation. It’s all so vile,” Vlaardingerbroek wrote, while questioning the legality of the government prohibiting farmers from starting over again.



“The whole idea of the EU was supposed to be about freedom of movement and freedom of workers. This is some next-level USSR stuff,” Vlaardingerbroek warned.

BBC: Climate Change Too Important To Be Left To Personal Choice
MONDAY, MAY 08, 2023 - 01:05 PM

Authored by Mark Jeftovic via BombThrower.com,







Everyone will have to ratchet down their standard of living by over 75%

A recent piece in BBC’s “Future World” series on its surface celebrates someone who choose to live an “ultra low carbon lifestyle”. They made a conscious and individual decision to bring their own personal carbon footprint down below 2 metric tonnes per year.



Throughout the developed world, per capita carbon output ranges from 4.46 (France) to Canada being the highest at 15.43.







Via GlobalEconomy.com



The article talks about the personal challenges around living an ultra-low carbon lifestyle. According to the piece, 2 tonnes/year is also about half the output of a single gas powered car in the US, so the first step for any Americans (or Canadians) wanting to do this, they would have to start by ditching their cars.







Other behaviours which move the needle would be: eating a plant based diet, buying green energy and forgoing one transatlantic round-trip per year.



In terms of what level of personal CO2 emissions gets the job done “for the climate”, estimates vary. While the 2 tonne number was somewhat arbitrary, there are other climate focused think tanks that feel the number has to be 1.4 tonnes of C02 per person by 2040 and 0.7 by 2050.



The Fallacy of per-capita output

Going back to Canada’s “excessive” carbon footprint – if we look at a metric that really means anything – total CO2 output – Canada is basically a rounding error to the world’s largest emitter, China.







At an average annual temperature at -4 to -5c celsius, Canada is also the coldest G7 nation. So perhaps we can forgive the Canucks for not wanting to freeze to death – even if it means emitting Co2 for heat. Also worth noting that far more humans are killed each year from being cold (17.7 million per year, on average) than from being too warm (2.2 million per year), roughly 8X.



Here’s the thing: everybody has to comply

While the overall timbre of the piece lauds the story’s protagonist (a communications officer at a climate non-profit) over her decision to make this lifestyle choice, sprinkled throughout are casual, back-handed references at where all this is going:







The ultra-low carbon lifestyle isn’t just for the eco-minded, it has to be for everybody. Or it isn’t going to work (“work” being defined as controlling the planet’s climate decades out).



“what do truly low-carbon lifestyles look like – and can they really be achieved by personal choice alone?“ the article laments.



Well if the answer is “no” then that means the ultra-low CO2 lifestyle has to be for everybody. How we do that is a matter of “both individual and systems change”. By systems change is meant that



“with the right policies, infrastructure and technology in place to enable changes to our lifestyles and behaviour, we can reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions substantially by 2050…



In richer countries, this means moving towards a far lower carbon lifestyle for most people. But the changes to get there aren’t necessarily painful or even negative. For example, research has shown that good public services enable higher wellbeing at lower energy use.”



If you read between the lines we see the implications of this. It basically means that an ultra-low carbon lifestyle has to be brought about through systemic change, government policy and massively expanded public services – or said differently, increasing dependence on The State.



Private infrastructure – like cars – will have to become a thing of the past:



One major change would be to change how we move around. Akenji envisions a combination of public transport alongside micro-mobility systems (such as electric scooters and drones) which make it efficient and effective for people to reach it. Private cars, with their huge emissions and often empty seats, would largely be a thing of the past, he says, and car parks converted to green public spaces where people go to play, relax or do exercise.



The Climate Cult-ist ‘s Dilemma

We live in a world where many people believe many different things, but nowhere else do we find the kind of mandatory buy-in required as with the so-called climate crisis. Fortunately we’re hearing from an increasing number of scientists that there is no crisis, and whose voices are getting louder even in the face of corporate media “fact checking” and other headwinds of narrative control.



Climate crisis or not, I personally think decarbonization will happen anyway if for no other reason than that fossil fuel supplies are finite. With rational energy policies, including nuclear, natural gas and hybrid EVs (as opposed to full EV), we could significantly ratchet down CO2 emissions while still providing increased energy inputs to a world hungry for higher living standards.



Doomberg frequently quips that one’s standard of living can be measured by how much energy one can afford to waste. Somewhat glib perhaps, but he uses it to hammer home the point that energy is life (also his phrase, see this Tweet thread that goes deeper on why).

The reality is there is no viable path forward that makes reduced energy usage and standard of living reductions a requirement, let alone mandatory.



Doing so means telling the middle class to own nothing and eat bugs, while the elites parade through the city in lengthy motorcades on their way to the airport to wing it to Davos in their private jets. It means telling third-world nations to remain mired in poverty. And it means forcing the Chinese to stop building all those coal-fired plants and to keep the 600 million subjects there who are still living in extreme poverty, poor.

Good luck with that.



The simple reality is that any desired policy or collective goal that requires 100% compliance from a population (let alone the entire world) will simply not occur. Even if 100% of the world’s population believed in anthropogenic global warming, you still wouldn’t achieve consensus on the forecasts, the models or how to implement a response.



For people who believe the climate emergency narrative (and make no mistake, it is a belief, like any other), the reality of this induces a type of eco-anxiety. Climate researchers and activists are sensitive to this dilemma and have created a word for it, “solastalgia”,



“the condition of feeling lonely, insecure and powerless because of the intense changes in one’s immediate environment, which can be caused by the acute impacts (e.g., floods and wildfires) of climate change, the chronic degradation of places caused by climate change (e.g., sea level rise) (Galway, Beery, Jones-Casey, & Tasala, 2019) or by human activity (e.g. mining, deforestation) (Albrecht et al., 2007, Galway et al., 2019). Solastalgia is not nostalgia, because it is not a longing for a place from which one has moved, rather it is suffering from change and lack of control over it (Albrecht et al., 2007).”



If that weren’t bad enough, they also face cognitive dissonance over their own carbon footprints – not all, even many, of those involved in the fight for climate change are living ultra-low carbon lifestyles themselves, and that causes them eco-guilt. In this widely cited paper on the topic, 17 respondents were interviewed about their coping mechanisms around ‘the emerging “psychoterratic” syndromes such as eco-anxiety, eco-guilt, and eco-grief”, they were:







They reported feelings of helplessness, meaninglessness, that we’re all going to die, guilt over travel, guilt over their own carbon footprints, conflict with family over eco-awareness, the list goes on, but widely summed up as



Prophetic individual responsibility and Self-criticism, self- examination, self-blame… Prophetic individual responsibility included the participants’ sudden recognition of humanity’s or their own environmental impact, which was often described as an overwhelming burden. We called it prophetic because the participants reported that they had realized they knew more about the topic than other people, which made them feel responsible for enlightening others or evoked a desire to make others aware of the damage or impending disaster because otherwise there would be no change.



At their core, the anxieties faced by these people are indicative of the human condition itself: we all have unique insights into the world – and if we’re introspective and genuinely curious – we become attuned to system problems that we feel need addressing. All Bitcoiners understand the “Fix the Money / Fix the World” maxim. But the approach to orange-pilling people is markedly different from eco-sermonizing.



But beneath even that, we all face impermanence, uncertainty and even mortality. Part of our psychological process of individuation is to find meaning and purpose within it all. It’s called life. Only for most of us, while seeing that our emotional support structures incorporate community, family and purpose, we realize that at our core we are, in our earthly incarnations – here alone, as individual souls. We must face the world as it is, and we each have a personal responsibility to grow into it under our own devices.



It is mainly the eco-anxious, the collectivists and Marxists who believe it critical, even necessary that the entire world must conform to the same worldview “in order to save humanity”. It’s textbook messiah complex and narcissism (see Deconstructing Wokethink)



Weaponizing “eco-guilt” (a.k.a “Rigging the game”)

This eco-anxiety is so acute that many think it noble and just that the structure of society itself must be altered to fit the worldview. There are academic papers on using eco-guilt to motivate eco-friendly behaviours (“eco-shaming”). In The Bitcoin Capitalist we’ve covered the UK’s “Nudge Units” which use social media influence operations to condition behaviors.







There is even one from Ross Mittiga, a professor of Political Theory at the Catholic University of Chile, and a democratic socialist (of course) who argues for the political legitimacy of authoritarianism to the point where political candidates must “pass a climate litmus test” before being permitted to run for office, and even overturning previous democratically driven policies if they are deemed harmful to the climate:



“Governments might also justifiably limit certain democratic institutions and processes to the extent these bear on the promulgation or implementation of environmental policy. This could involve imposing a climate litmus-test on those who seek public office, disqualifying anyone who has significant (relational or financial) ties to climate-harming industries or a history of climate denialism. More strongly, governments may establish institutions capable of overturning previous democratic decisions (expressed, for example, in popu- lar referenda or plebiscites) against the implementation of carbon taxes or other necessary climate policies.”



In the future it’ll be a lot more expensive to be free

This drumbeat for climate collectivism is going to get worse before it gets better. While it’s encouraging to see more reality being injected into the conversation – and eco-messiahs increasingly discrediting themselves through their lifestyles of conspicuous consumption – large swaths of the population are buying this story hook-line-and-sinker, and as Late Stage Globalism enters into its endgame, we expect policy makers to become more desperate and draconian.



CBDC’s will probably come out of the gate as personal carbon quota systems and mass adoption will be driven through UBI delivered on the rails of social credit systems and digital ID.







COVID was supposed to be a godsend for those seeking to create precedent for unlimited stimulus, quasi-UBI and prototypical social credit mechanisms through vaccine passports et al. Fortunately it was all too much, too soon and it appears as though the opposite may be happening.



Where another twenty years of operant conditioning and creeping totalitarianism may have provided the perfect setup for an enduring, technocratic authoritarianism, the widespread policy failures created a larger swath of population who is now wary and suspicious of the next “existential crisis”.



The 37 Trillion in new M2 money blowing out the currency system, the central banks forcing themselves into a corner on interest rates vs inflation, the new pandemic of “sudden and unexpected” excess mortality, and now various Covid rockstars trying to distance themselves from their role in it all, it certainly looks as though the globalist elite of hyper-Liberalism have overplayed their hand.



That won’t preclude them from trying, however, and there are still many who think #CovidsNotOver, want to #BringBackMasks who will be all too eager to have their lives mediated and gamified via their smartphones and dramatically ratchet down their lifestyles in order to “save the climate”.



Let them.



But you don’t have to go along with it, but it will become more expensive to be free. Wealth taxes, windfall taxes, heavily regulated chokepoints between the rapidly deteriorating “fiat world” and the coming “anti-fiat” economy will require being a net producer, owning hard assets across multiple jurisdictions and networks, and garnering multiple income streams. The middle class is being demolished, and with calls to reduce living standards by over 75% (cutting personal emissions from an average if 8 tonnes per capita to 1.5 and then 0.7), it looks intentional.



“In the future, there will be only one occupation: managing one’s wealth. And most people are going to be unemployed”.



As I wrote in a recent issue of the premium letter:


The CBDCs will roll out, and intended or not, become full-fledged China-style social credit systems, from which “the smart money” flees into Bitcoin and other hard assets to preserve its wealth.



This leads to “The Great Bifurcation” scenario I’ve written about at length.



It’s where Neo-serfs who rely on The State for their economic survival live lives of quiet desperation and servitude, their carbon footprints metered, their behaviours monitored, nudged and shaped; their destinies largely out of their own hands. Life is something that just happens to them, punctuated by episodes of “gaming the algo” to score additional privileges or avoid punishment.



Marbled throughout this world would be enclaves, and networks of sovereign individuals and micro-states for whom life is a futuristic extrapolation of hyper-capitalism and mobility. This is the Sovereign Individual thesis meeting The Network State, writ large.



Become a sovereign individual in whatever manner suits you: own gold, stack sats, have a Plan B, work for yourself, not somebody else and for God’s sake, turn off the TV and stop subjecting yourself to the corporate media. Connect with like minded individuals and form both virtual and real communities and networks.



The defining tension of Late Stage Globalism will not be between “left” and “right” but between sovereign individuals and collectivists, decentralization vs centralization.

Public Must Reduce Standard of Living by 75% to Stop ‘Global Warming,’ Media Warns

Frank Bergman
May 11, 2023 - 12:57 pm


Governments must introduce measures to reduce the public’s standard of living by a staggering 75 percent, using force if necessary, globalist corporate media outlets are now warning.



The public must take drastic measures to reduce individuals’ so-called “carbon footprint” to stop “global warming,” according to the BBC.



In its “Future World” series, the BBC warns viewers that choosing to live an “ultra-low carbon lifestyle” is no longer an option and calls for the standards to be mandated by governments.



The public-funded British media outlet insists that a dramatic reduction in living standards is now required if the planet is to be saved from allegedly man-made “climate change.”



According to the BBC, however, “climate change” is too important for “carbon footprint” reduction to be left to personal choice, and is calling on governments around the world to step in.



Right now, the “carbon footprint” of someone living in the developed world ranges anywhere from 4.46 metric tons per year in France, all the way up to 15.43 metric tons per year in Canada.



In the United States, the average person’s carbon footprint clocks in at 14.67 metric tons per year, according to Bomb Thrower.



Americans’ carbon footprint is nearly eight times higher than the two metric tons per year limit that’s required to meet the green agenda goals dictated by the World Economic Forum (WEF).



According to the BBC, two metric tons per year of carbon “waste” is about half the output of a single gas-powered car in the U.S. – and nothing more.



In order for an individual to lower their carbon “waste” below the WEF-friend limit, every individual would have to give up personal car use, energy usage, meat-eating, and other “wasteful” necessities.



The average person’s lifestyle would have to change dramatically in order to comply with an “ultra-low carbon green lifestyle.”



For most people, this “lifestyle” would mean abject poverty and misery and a prison-like life where there is very little travel allowed, and minimal, if any, freedoms.



While this may already sound extreme, others in the green cult believe that even a limit of two metric tons of carbon footprint per person per year is still too much.



Some alarmists are suggesting just 1.4 metric tons instead by the year 2040 with further reduction to just 0.7 metric tons per year per person by the year 2050.



For some reason, the BBC ignored Communist China in its reporting on the worst carbon-emitting countries.


China generates the most pollution and carbon “waste” of any other country, by far.



The United States is the second largest CO2 emitting nation, while Canada doesn’t even make the top ten.



However, China emits more pollution than the rest of the top five countries COMBINED.



Nevertheless, Communist China almost always gets a free pass in the media when it comes to things like energy usage, pollution, and other green-related issues.



The WEF and its members never call China out while rolling out plans to “save the planet” such as bug-eating or bans on public car ownership.



“We live in a world where many people believe many different things, but nowhere else do we find the kind of mandatory buy-in required as with the so-called climate crisis,” reports Mark E. Jeftovic.



“Fortunately we’re hearing from an increasing number of scientists that there is no crisis, and whose voices are getting louder even in the face of corporate media ‘fact checking’ and other headwinds of narrative control.”

Biodiversity charity director celebrates human population decline, says reduction of living humans will help governments meet climate change targets

Tags: Climate, climate alarmism, climate change, conspiracy, deception, depopulation, genocide, global warming, globalists, green tyranny, overlords, population, science deception, scientific american, Stephanie Feldstein, Twisted



This article may contain statements that reflect the opinion of the author


(Natural News) In order to stop the weather from getting warm, Stephanie Feldstein, who wrote an op-ed recently for Scientific American, believes that depopulation, meaning a world with far fewer people, is the solution.



In the piece, Feldstein openly celebrates the depopulation that has already been ramping up in recent years, which we know is due to the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “pandemic” and the “vaccines” that were released under Operation Warp Speed.



Birth rates are down massively; tens of millions of people are needlessly dead; and now the United Nations is predicting much larger population reductions by the year 2050, which Feldstein says is “good news” on the global warming front.



“Considering no other large animal’s population has grown as much, as quickly or as devastatingly for other species as ours, we should all be celebrating population decline,” Feldstein writes, likening human beings to animals.



(Related: Last fall, Reuters flat-out called for mass genocide as the final solution to global warming.)



Fighting “climate change” is code for mass genocide of the non-“elite”

In Feldstein’s mind, fewer people on the planet means fewer mouths to feed, which also means a whole lot more resources for the globalist “elite” to exploit for themselves instead of having to share it with what she perceives as worthless human cattle.



Feldstein, by the way, is the “population and sustainability director” at the Centre for Biological Diversity, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that is committed to “secur[ing] our planet’s future,” according to its website.



The only thing about population decline that is bad, in Feldstein’s view, is the fact that it threatens the current economic order, which is based on growth.



“Shifting to a model based on degrowth and equity alongside lower fertility rates will help fight climate change and increase wealth and well-being,” she contends.



There are only two options, in other words: stop reproducing and perhaps kill yourself, or kill the planet. This is the primary doctrine of the Green Cult, of which Feldstein is clearly a member.



Feldstein basically lays it all out with no beating around the bush. In order for governments to meet their climate goals, they need to see more “declining populations and ageing demographics.” Both of these things, she says “helps to reduce carbon emissions.”



One of the books Feldstein promotes in her op-ed is a work called “The Jane Effect,” written by Jane Goodall, that likewise calls for a massive reduction in the world’s population in order to fight “climate change.” In 2020 at the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) annual meeting in Davos, Goodall called for the global population to be reduced to just 450 million people.



This is 50 million people less than what was written on the now-demolished Georgia Guidestones, which stated in stone that an ideal world population for the globalist overlords to most easily exploit is 500 million.



Feldstein is an acolyte of Goodall who feels similarly that the world right now is seeing “runaway human population growth and overconsumption,” which must be reversed in order for her envisioned “green” new world to manifest.



“Contrary to the hysteria being pushed by governments and the bought and paid for mainstream media, the statistics show that severe weather events are actually decreasing,” one commenter wrote about how the very premise behind global warming, which is just a cover story excuse for promoting mass genocide, is inherently flawed. “Wild fires are as well.”



“Carbon dioxide is not driving any change of the climate it rises or falls in reaction to the climate. The main driver of the climate is the sun and our distance from it as we orbit it.”

Dutch farmer “families are crying at the kitchen table every day,” committing suicide over globalist climate change tyranny

Thursday, May 18, 2023 by: Ethan Huff

Tags: Climate, climate alarmism, climate change, Dutch, farmers, food supply, global warming, Globalism, green tyranny, Netherlands, Nitrogen, suicide, Tyranny, world agriculture



This article may contain statements that reflect the opinion of the author


(Natural News) Some 3,000 farms across The Netherlands are on the government’s chopping block.



As part of the Dutch government’s mission to eradicate “global warming” and “climate change,” it is threatening to seize these 3,000 farms if their owners refuse to accept a proposed buyout.



In an effort to be “fair,” the Dutch government is offering the landowners 120 percent more fiat money than their land is worth at market prices, but many of them are not interested in cash and would prefer to keep their land.



This is not an option, though. And many farmers and their families are “crying at the kitchen table every day” while others contemplate suicide as they face the reality of losing their livelihoods at the hands of a rogue bureaucracy.


Dutch government baited farmers into creating bigger farms only to later pull the rug on them


Many of the Dutch farmers who are being forced to sell or die were lured into buying their farms by the very government that is now taking it all away by force.



The Dutch government, in conjunction with big banks, developed a comprehensive plan to expand Dutch farms, encouraging farmers to expand and create larger farms by purchasing their neighbors’ properties.



“They wanted the farms to scale up their businesses,” one report explains. “And now, suddenly the policy is to make smaller farmers. This is also the EU policy.”



“Then, you add nitrogen regulations. These farmers now have these huge farms, which means big debts, huge debts, because they had to invest. And now, the government comes up with the idea that they have this nitrogen problem, and farms need to close or be reduced in size.”



“The banks turn around and say, then your business – because a farm is really a business – is only worth 50 percent compared to yesterday. So these people have huge debts. They are captured in a system that they never asked for. They followed the rules, and now they are pushed in a direction that is really desperate for them.”



What is a Dutch farmer to do under these circumstances? That is a question many of them are now asking themselves, which is why there are a lot of tears and a growing number of tragic deaths as landowners, some of whom have been passing down their farms for many generations, are running out of hope.



Chances are that most farmers will take the money rather than have their farms seized by force. This is the kind of tyranny the flourishes once globalists take over a nation or continent and intentionally drive it into the ground for their own gain.



Keep in mind that The Netherlands, despite its small size, is the world’s second-largest producer of food behind the United States. Many other countries rely on Dutch food exports, which will dwindle once the globalists have their way with Dutch farms.



The only good news in all this is that the farmer-citizen movement in The Netherlands was so strong last election that it saw a landline win. Perhaps headway can be made in fighting back against the globalists and saving The Netherlands from total destruction.



“They keep the people stupid and the government makes them work,” one man from The Netherlands who is fighting back against globalist tyranny wrote in an article for REMIX. “That’s how the system works.”



Man-made global warming is a farce that the powers that be are using as a cover story to eliminate all human freedoms and liberties. To learn more, visit GreenTyranny.news.

John Kerry and Biden Regime Target Small Farms in Their Ongoing Climate Crusade – They’re Going After the Food Supply

By Jim Hoft
May. 20, 2023 5:40 pm




They’re going after our food supplies.



John Kerry is targeting family farms. The Biden regime’s climate czar says farms produce too much greenhouse gases. He wants that to stop in order to combat the climate “crisis.”



Farms also happen to produce food. Kerry is not worried about that. The global elites are not worried about that.



Recently, the Netherlands announced they were shutting down family farms to combat global warming. Tough luck if you happen to own one of the farms or work at the farms. This insanity comes at the same time Europe is seeing it highest inflation in decades.


The Dutch Government announced they will close up to 3,000 farms to comply with their global warming goals.

They’re shutting down food production to combat warming. What comes next when you can’t feed all the people?



Now John Kerry is targeting US farms in his ongoing crusade against global warming the imaginary threat that is affecting all of our lives.



In 2009 John Kerry predicted an the Arctic would be ice-free by 2014.

FOX News reported:



Kerry lamented that agriculture production alone creates 33% of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions, arguing that reducing those emissions must be “front and center” in the quest to defeat global warming, during remarks Wednesday morning at the Department of Agriculture’s AIM for Climate Summit. The former secretary of state also touted so-called climate smart agriculture as a potential solution.



“A lot of people have no clue that agriculture contributes about 33% of all the emissions of the world,” he said during his keynote address. “We can’t get to net-zero, we don’t get this job done unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution. So all of us understand here the depths of this mission.”



“Food systems themselves contribute a significant amount of emissions just in the way in which we do the things we’ve been doing,” he continued. “With a growing population on the planet – we just crossed the threshold of 8 billion fellow citizens around the world – emissions from the food system alone are projected to cause another half a degree of warming by mid-century.”



Kerry is a loon.

EU approves 1.5 billion euro climate scheme to forcibly close up to 3,000 Dutch farms

Dramatically cutting food production in the Netherlands will have a serious effect on world food supply, including that of affordable meat.


Frank Wright

Tue May 23, 2023 - 8:43 pm EDT


(LifeSiteNews) — With the May 3 approval of a €1.5 billion scheme to buy out Dutch farmers, the EU has signaled its intention to go through with the forcible closure of up to 3,000 Dutch farms.



The funds, provided by the Dutch government with EU support, are intended to finance the purchase of Dutch farms from their owners. In line with the goals of the European Green Deal, it is a move intended to reduce the total number of meat-producing livestock with the goal of reducing nitrogen output.



Despite the success of the Dutch Farmer Citizen (BBB) party in the March elections, their majority is in the Senate, leaving Parliament still under the control of World Economic Forum favorite Mark Rutte.



The current Politico poll has them at a record 32 percent, however – 12 points clear of Rutte’s party. It is a strong sign that in the Netherlands, the government is pursuing policies contrary to the will of the people.

You cannot eat money

The EU-approved measures taken by the Dutch government resemble a desperate measure to claw back support – for a deeply unpopular policy.



After months of protests both in the Netherlands and in Belgium, it appears the Rutte regime has now resorted to attempted bribery.



According to the European Commission report published on May 2:



Under the €500 million LBV scheme, the aid will take the form of direct grants to compensate up to 100% of the losses incurred by farmers who decide to close their dairy cattle, pig and poultry breeding sites.



The remaining €975 million of the money is aimed at farmers with the biggest meat output – who will be offered more than the value of their business in order to stop farming forever.



As regards the loss of production capacity, under the LBV plus scheme, the farmers concerned may receive up to 120% as compensation.



Under the schemes, the beneficiaries guarantee that the closure of their production capacity is definitive and irreversible, and that they will not start the same breeding activity elsewhere in the Netherlands or within the EU.



A gap in the market

The Netherlands is at present the world’s second-largest food exporter. This from an agricultural sector which is overwhelmingly composed of farms owned by one family.



As Euronews reported on May 3:



Nearly €1.5 billion will be used to compensate farmers who voluntarily close farms located near nature reserves. Some 3,000 farms are expected to be eligible.



The Dutch ruling coalition wants to cut emissions, predominantly nitrogen oxide and ammonia, by 50 per cent nationwide by 2030.



Dramatically cutting food production in the Netherlands will have a serious effect on world food supply, including that of affordable meat. The plight of Dutch farmers is so grave, however, that some feel the E.U. measures may well succeed – where persuasion and force have failed.



Building on misery

The EU-inspired scheme is touted as a means of preserving the environment. Yet a recent interview with Dutch MEP Robert Roos suggests a far darker agenda which is driving Dutch farmers to extinction. Roos recently addressed a National Conservatism conference in Brussels, Belgium, calling for cooperation between conservatives in a time of crisis.



Speaking to Remix News on May 16, Roos explained why he fears many farmers may be tempted to take the money and run.



f you are desperate and don’t know what to do anymore, and you’re facing uncertainty year after year, then the government turns around and says, ‘OK, we have a way out for you, we have money to give you.’



I think a lot of farms will do that, which is a disaster because they are the second-largest producer of food in the world after the United States.



Roos’ remarks come after a series of reported suicides amongst Dutch farmers. What is more, he claims the scheme is “green” in name only, with the real objective the seizure of valuable land for development.



We’ve already seen it, and it’s not a rumor, it’s just a fact. They bought the land of a farmer, and they built temporary houses for immigrants on it. This is one year ago, but it’s not even a rumor.



Unfortunately, if you had said that two years ago, they would respond to you that you are a conspiracy theorist, but now it’s just fact. And I think that of course they want to have the land and they want to build more houses. That’s why they used also this nitrogen issue, which is really crazy.



Roos contends that the purchase of vast areas of farmland are earmarked for government and corporate-funded development, whilst new legislation means Dutch citizens will be forbidden from building anything for themselves. With the population rising from 15 to 18 million from the 1990s, the EU’s open border policy is creating vast demand for everything, including food – and housing.



But now we have the EU Nature Restoration Law coming up. And we will vote on that before the summer, in the (EU) parliament; if this law is adopted, our complete country (the Netherlands) will be locked to new development.



We will not be able to build houses anymore, we cannot even build wind turbines anymore, which is, from my perspective, a good thing. But overall, our country will be closed.



Roos says that the whole narrative is based on lies. Not only is the regime promoting a collapse in the food supply, but they aim to purchase and confiscate land to house a rapidly expanding population.



Of course, it’s hypocritical, and they are pretending. But it’s also just the case that facts don’t matter.



It’s not about arguments, it’s about ideology.



Roos remarks that the debate is policed by the use of slurs, making honest mention of the facts impossible.



If you say that we need more energy because we will have more people – that renewables may not pan out the way they assume they will – then you’re a climate denier. If you say we have to stop this illegal immigration, you’re again, a racist.



If you point out that breaking the food supply chain will be catastrophic – and exacerbated by unlimited immigration – you are a conspiracy theorist. Thankfully, the Dutch are fighting back.

A global struggle

Finally, as recent Catholic convert Eva Vlaardingerbroek warned last year, John Kerry wants to bring forced farm closures to the U.S.



After the Biden administration’s “climate czar” addressed the AIM for Climate Summit, which was held in Washington D.C. May 8 through 10, he said:



A lot of people have no clue that agriculture contributes about 33% of all the emissions of the world.



We can’t get to net-zero, we don’t get this job done unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution. So all of us understand here the depths of this mission.



He noted that small farms are significant emitters of nitrogen, as he advanced the case for a U.S. federal government attack on farmers to mimic that planned in the EU. Yet Kerry’s planned actions against U.S. farmers have not gone unchallenged.



Kerry has been accused of “taking actions which could undermine the economic health of the USA and threatening congressional authority,” according to a recent Fox News report.



The threat to the livelihood of ordinary people is an issue which is now both local and global. So is the fightback.

Ireland Plans to Slaughter 200,000 Farting Cows to Save Planet from ‘Global Warming’ 
By Jim Hoft
Jun. 2, 2023 6:55 pm






While you were sleeping the globalist fanatics went after your food supplies.



The globalist movement is targeting food production in the West. And, of course, the crooked officials are glad to assist.



Government officials in The Netherlands, a major European food producer, shut down 3,000 productive farms to comply with global warming goals in November.



In December Germany order farmers to slash fertilizer after the Dutch farms were shut down to comply with global warming standards.



Why A Veteran-Owned Freeze-Dried Beef Company Unabashedly Embraces An American-First Worldview



And this week Irish lawmakers are pushing a plan to kill off 200,000 cows to reach their global warming goals.



Farm World reported:



The Irish government is considering an initiative to significantly reduce the number of dairy cows in order to reach its climate change targets.



A target of reducing emissions from farming in Ireland by a quarter by 2030 has been set by government.



One proposal to achieve this is by reducing the national dairy herd by 10%, the equivalent of removing 65,000 cows a year for three years, according to the Irish Independent.



See also: What UK dairy farmers can learn from Dutch ‘nitrogen crisis’



Minister for agriculture Charlie McConalogue told Irish radio station RTE Morning Ireland that a dairy vision group with farmer representatives has been looking into a range of options to reduce emissions on farm.



The Irish Department of Agriculture responded to the reports.

Via The Irish Mirror:

The Department for Agriculture has said a report outlining a 200,000 reduction in dairy cows was a “modelling document”.



It was reported yesterday the cows would have to be “culled” at a cost of €600,000 to taxpayers over the next three years to meet climate emissions targets.



The Farming Independent said it got the figures in its report from an internal document through a freedom of information request.

America Signs Global Climate Agreement to Crack Down on Farming

Frank Bergman
June 4, 2023 - 12:57 pm


Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration has signed a global agreement with 12 other nations to crack down on farming to “save the planet” from “climate change.”



The agreement, led by the United States, has been signed by several major cattle and food-producing states including Australia, Germany, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Spain.



The nations signed onto a commitment to place farmers under new restrictions to reduce emissions of methane gas.



Biden’s “climate czar” John Kerry is representing America in the pledge.



The Global Methane Hub announced in a press release that agriculture and environmental ministers and ambassadors from 13 countries, including the U.S., have signed a commitment that pledges to reduce methane emissions in agriculture.



Interestingly, China and Russia are not mentioned at all in these anti-food policies.



According to the press release issued by these nations:



Last month (in April 2023), the Global Methane Hub collaborated with the Ministries of Agriculture of Chile and Spain to convene the first-ever global ministerial on agricultural practices to reduce methane emissions.



The ministerial brought together high-ranking government members to share global perspectives on methane reduction and low-emission food systems.



The gathering led to a statement in which the nations committed to support efforts to improve the quality and quantity of, and access to, finance for climate change adaptation and mitigation measures in the agriculture and food sectors and to collaborate on efforts aimed at lowering methane emissions in agriculture and food systems.



Conference participants included the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the Climate & Clean Air Coalition, the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture, the World Bank, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, and the Inter-American Development Bank.



Along with the UN, the World Bank has become increasingly vocal about a coming famine.



On May 22, the World Bank issued a white paper titled Food Security Update: World Bank Response to Rising Food Insecurity.



Starting in September of last year, the director of the United Nations World Food Program has also been putting out dire warnings about a coming global famine.


According to the World Bank, the UN, the Biden admin, the World Economic Forum (WEF), and their allies, modern food production is destroying the planet by causing “global warming.”



Therefore, according to the green agenda, farming must be targeted because it produces methane which supposedly harms the environment.



“Food systems are responsible for 60% of methane emissions,” said Marcelo Mena, CEO of Global Methane Hub.



“We congratulate countries willing to take the lead in food systems methane mitigation and confirm our commitment to support this type of initiative with programs that explore promising methane mitigation technologies and the underpinning research of methane mitigation mechanisms to create new technologies.”


John Kerry is also very excited about taking valuable, productive farmland offline, reducing the size of cattle herds, and turning our food-production systems over to technocrats and globalists offering vague promises of “new technologies.”



As Slay News recently reported, Kerry is calling for farmers to stop growing food in order to meet the administration’s radical “net zero” goals for lowering “emissions.”



Kerry, Biden’s Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, issued the warning during a green agenda conference in Washington D.C.



During the Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) AIM for Climate Summit, Kerry told the audience that “we can’t get to net zero, we won’t get this job done, unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution.”



Kerry warned attendees that his and other world leaders’ “lives depend” on farmers ceasing their operations.

Kerry added in a statement, “Mitigating methane is the fastest way to reduce warming in the short term.



“Food and agriculture can contribute to a low-methane future by improving farmer productivity and resilience.



“We welcome agriculture ministers participating in the implementation of the Global Methane Pledge.”



According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. is busy trying to mitigate methane emissions not just in America but worldwide.



The EPA’s website states: “The United States provides key leadership, funding, and technical expertise for international methane emission reduction efforts, resulting in more than 1,140 methane mitigation projects through GMI as of 2021.”



In just one example, the Biden administration plans to spend $1.5 million in taxpayer funds on a program aimed at “empowering” female climate change activists in the “patriarchal” society of northern Kenya, documents reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon show.



The May 17 press release further states that, “The focus of the conference was the deployment of science-based practices, innovation, and technologies in line with sustainable food production…”



The nations signing onto this pledge to transform their farm policies are:



Argentina

Australia

Brazil

Burkina Faso

Chile

Czech Republic

Ecuador

Germany

Panama

Peru

Spain

United States

Uruguay

The government of Spain will organize a second conference in 2024 to monitor and advance implementation efforts related to the statement and encourage more countries to join, according to the press release.



In order to save the planet from emissions that come from farming, global governments are being urged to replace meat in the public’s food supply with insects.



The WEF has been leading the push to replace a major portion of the beef and dairy cattle, pork, and chicken stocks that populations rely on for protein with insect larvae, mealworms, crickets, and other bug-based “foods.”



The UN, WEF, and other unelected organizations have been promoting meatless diets and the consumption of insect protein for years.



Billionaires elites have invested in massive insect factories being built in the state of Illinois, in Canada, and in the Netherlands, where mealworms, crickets, and other bugs will be processed as additives to be inserted into the food supply, often without clear labels that will inform people of exactly what they are eating.



Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is also partnering with other billionaires to invest in the production of lab-grown “meat.”



The process involves using cancer cells from cows, chickens, and pigs to quickly grow artificial “meat.”



However, as Slay News has reported, a recent study found that lab-grown “synthetic meat” is 25 times worse for the environment than traditionally farmed beef.



Nations around the world are now ramping up efforts cut meat and dairy products from the food supply.



Farmers will be increasingly forced off their land, as is already happening in the Netherlands, which is the world’s second-leading net exporter of food after the United States.



Just last month, New York City announced plans to impose restrictions on the amount of meat and dairy products the public can consume.



Ireland’s government, meanwhile, has just pushed plans to slaughter 200,000 healthy cows to meet the radical green agenda goals, as Slay News reported.



John Kerry insists that stopping farmers from growing food is essential for meeting the goals to lower agriculture “emissions.”



He continued by noting that he does not even call it “climate change” anymore.



“It’s not change; it’s a crisis,” he declared.

Is the WHO planning to unleash climate lockdowns as the next “pandemic?”

(Natural News) Now that the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) scamdemic is over, the World Health Organization (WHO) is busy plotting its next tyrannical scheme in the form of another round of lockdowns, this time to stop “climate change.”



Newly proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHRs) and the so-called Pandemic Treaty both incorporate what is known as the “One Health” approach. The One Health scheme will grant the WHO absolute “power” to initiate “climate lockdowns” at such a time that “global warming” is determined to be too much of a threat to ignore.



“While vague and confusing, the language of the One Health scam is a tool to create networks and combine efforts toward centralizing power and control, which is always the goal of all masters everywhere,” reported Mac Slavo in the Discern Report.



“Once that central power has been achieved then similar measures that were imposed in response to the COVID plandemic can be used for climate change, loss of biodiversity, human diseases, vector-borne diseases, and much more.”



(Related: During covid, some left-wing climate fanatics called on families to kill their relatives in lockdown to save the planet.)



The next global lockdown will be the lockdown of all lockdowns

The next round of lockdowns to be overseen by the WHO will be much worse than the covid lockdowns. WHO head Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus will be able to wield unrestrained authoritarian tyranny on everyone all around the globe, forcing people to stay inside and “stay safe” indefinitely.



With the help of artificial intelligence (AI), the powers that be will be able to maintain an all-seeing eye on everyone at all times – you didn’t really think those AI brain implants were actually about “saving lives” like Elon Musk claims, did you?



Bill Gates and his Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation are the biggest funders of the WHO, driving the organization’s tyrannical policies. Billy Boy just cannot wait until the next fake “pandemic” is launched, plunging the entire world right back into hell – a much worse hell than covid, by the way.



Covid was just the test run for what the WHO is planning for next time. The World Economic Forum (WEF), run by Klaus Schwab, is also involved with spearheading the scheme, which the Daily Exposé describes as follows:



“WHO’s ‘Pandemic Treaty’ will not only be concerned with pandemics. It introduces globally the ‘One Health’ ideology. The concept recognizes the interdependence of human and animal health and the connection with the environment. Through this One Health agenda, WHO will have the power to make decisions in matters relating to the environment (including greenhouse gas emissions, pollution, and deforestation), animal health (e.g., livestock), and human health (including vaccinations, social determinants, and population movement). With these extended powers, WHO could readily declare a climate or environmental emergency and enforce lockdowns.”



The excuse for all this tyranny is that it must happen in order to provide a “ray of hope for addressing our global challenges.” In other words, the planet will die, we are told, unless all humans besides the “elite” are locked down and subjected to genocide.



In order to address the 14 “global challenges” that the WHO has identified – these include food, water, safety, security, soil health, and “comparative biology” – the powers that be must seize control over everything, including not just “people” but also “animals,” plants, waterways, and entire ecosystems.



To stop this nightmare from coming to fruition, a critical mass of humanity would have to first realize what is happening and agree to systematically resist. This includes the “enforcers,” i.e., law enforcement, coming to the realization that they are working on behalf of evil, prompting them to switch sides and fight for humanity instead.

Green tyranny takes aim at our farms: South Dakota farmers face land seizures by terraforming company planning to install massive “carbon capture” infrastructure across landscape

(Natural News) A takeover is happening across the American Midwest as so-called “green” energy companies abuse eminent domain laws to rob and seize people’s private property in order to turn it into pipelines for the capture and removal of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.



The latest affront is occurring in South Dakota, where a company called Summit Carbon Solutions is trying to steal land from at least 80 different landowners, including a man named Jared Bossly whose farm has been in his family’s possession for four generations.



Summit Carbon Solutions wants Bossly’s land and is doing whatever it can to take it from him while Republican Gov. Kristi Noem sits idly by and does nothing to help him. Greg Price from the State Freedom Caucus Network tweeted video footage of surveyors from the company breaking and entering Bossly’s home and shop before surveying his land without permission.



“They entered his home and shop before going on his farm to survey the land all without permission while only his wife was home,” Price tweeted about the footage, which you can view below:



What I am about to tell you should be the most important story in America but no national media is talking about it. Read this entire tweet.



One of the biggest invasions of property rights in American history is currently happening in South Dakota to expand green energy.



This… pic.twitter.com/li1ErwsdTy

(Related: Check out our earlier coverage about how foreign entities are behind many of these “carbon capture” scams that are taking over the American Midwest.)



The “green” energy grift is destroying farmers and their families

When Bossly tried to get the men from Summit Carbon Solutions to leave his property and only return with permission and with the sheriff present, they falsely accused him of threatening to kill them. They are now attempting to punish Bossly further by taking him to court and getting a restraining order preventing him from being on his own property.



According to Bossly, Summit Carbon Solutions surveyors are doing this to many farmers around the area because the pipeline they want to build has to travel through their land in order to work.



Price describes what these land invasions are like, comparing it to “something straight out of Blazing Saddles” because of the armed security guard figures who are appearing on people’s land as a show of threatening force.



“The Republican leadership in South Dakota has also abandoned them,” Price laments. “In the last legislative session, bills to protect landowners from eminent domain from Summit failed. Gov. Kristi Noem has done nothing. Why? Because Summit has connections to massive GOP donors.”



“They are also bankrolled by large investments, some of which are foreign, as well as benefit from massive federal tax credits for carbon capture expanded by Joe Biden’s ‘Inflation Reduction Act.'”



While the Republican leadership in South Dakota sells farmers down the river for cash, said farmers are facing the loss of everything their families worked so hard to achieve and the wealth they built to pass on to their children and grandchildren.



“Their elected leaders have abandoned them and no one outside local media is talking about it,” Price says.



Bossly told Price that he is distraught over the fact that he could lose the farm he planned to pass on to his children to enjoy “the way he and his family before did.”



Every spare penny that Bossly makes goes straight into the farm and managing the land. He plants trees to provide a windbreak for his herd of cattle – trees that Summit Carbon Solutions intends to bulldoze to make room for its carbon capture pipeline.

Eco-Terrorist Groups Plotting ‘Summer of Chaos’ to ‘Create Mayhem’ across America

Frank Bergman

June 10, 2023 - 12:25 pm

Europe’s top radical eco-terrorist groups are plotting a massive “civil disobedience” campaign to trigger a “summer of chaos” by causing disruption across America.

Far-left climate activists are planning to travel from Europe to the United States to launch “headline-grabbing disturbances” and bring “whole cities to a standstill,” according to a new report.

Leaders from Extinction Rebellion (XR) and other European groups known for their large-scale disturbances are rapidly expanding their US-based franchise, Declare Emergency, the Daily Mail is reporting.

The goal is to “create mayhem” on this side of the Atlantic, the report reveals.

A leak from a videoconference reveals that the European leftists have been training activists in the U.S. in preparation.

New recruits are taught how to raise money, boost membership, and record scores of “arrestable” members to spearhead the most aggressive protests and violent riots.

In Europe, those groups have assembled tens of thousands of protestors and brought cities to a standstill.

The protests, which often descend into violent rioting, have caused millions of dollars in losses.

However, it remains unclear if they can replicate that success on this side of the pond as the plan has yet to be deployed.

“What we want to do is create a large-scale civil disobedience campaign on the climate catastrophe in the United States,” Roger Hallam, the co-founder of XR, told the online gathering of a few dozen US-based activists.

Hallam, who co-founded XR’s US-based sister organization Declare Emergency last year, said he had raised $1 million in the past week.

He laid out plans for aggressively recruiting 1,000 members in the coming weeks.

The seasoned activist, speaking from the UK, said his organizational tactics were “not that complicated, have worked in many countries, and we see no reason why they shouldn’t work in the U.S.”

We don’t spam! Read our privacy policy for more info.

Though small, Declare Emergency, has made headlines in recent months, including when two members smeared paint on the case of a Degas masterpiece at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. in April.

They’ve also blocked roads in the capital and Maryland and rallied outside Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) home in New York City.

Several members have been arrested and fined; the art gallery protestors face jail time.

But to date, the group hasn’t matched the scale of Europe’s climate chaos, notably XR’s week-long series of rallies in London, which closed drown bridges and shuttered much of the city center, causing millions of dollars of losses in 2019.


Members have planted trees in Parliament Square, superglued themselves to the gates of Buckingham Palace and other landmarks, vandalized artworks in major galleries, and shut down runways used by private jets.

Though many people support efforts to tackle global warming, others eschew the tactics of XR and other hard-line outfits, which have shuttered roads, highways, airports, offices, and other public venues.

Hallam insists such a massive disruption is possible in the U.S.

He cited the decades of civil rights protests and the more recent Black Lives Matter-led George Floyd riots in 2020.

Declare Emergency, which wants Democrat President Joe Biden to declare a national “climate crisis” and use his executive powers to sharply cut pollution, coordinates with overseas activists through the so-called A22 Network.

That grouping includes France’s Last Renovation, which temporarily halted last year’s Tour de France cycling race, and Germany’s Last Generation, which has been repeatedly raided by German police in recent weeks as a “criminal organization.”

Another member of the network, Just Stop Oil, famously arranged for two members to throw tomato soup over Vincent van Gogh’s Sunflowers at the National Gallery in London in October last year.

In the teleconference, Declare Emergency members did not say what protests were being planned, but discussed hunger strikes and highway disruptions, like those staged by Save Old Growth last year around Vancouver, Canada.

Protests would be focussed on Washington and New York City, they said.

Tim Martin, Declare Emergency’s social media organizer, who has been indicted for conspiring to damage the Degas statue at the National Gallery of Art, said he expected more attacks on “federal properties, like the museums.”

“We struck a chord there … so that’s a good thing,” said Martin, 53, of Raleigh, North Carolina.

Though the U.S. activists have made headlines, several members discussed the difficulty of remaining cohesive and complained about getting bogged down by “ideological purity” tests rather than taking action.

Thibaut Cantet, an activist for Last Renovation, speaking from the south of France, said it was vital to launch Europe-style climate protests in the U.S.

Ignoring China, the world’s largest polluter by a very large margin, the activists falsely claimed that the U.S. is the largest producer of “carbon emissions.”

“Nothing’s going to work if it doesn’t happen in the U.S.,” Cantet said.

The activists didn’t mention China during the discussions about the “climate crisis,” nor did they indicate that they are planning protests against the Chinese Communist Party.

In recent weeks, Europe’s climate activists have amassed 60,000 protestors in London and derailed the continent’s largest private jet trade fair by chaining themselves to aircraft to protest against the sector’s “carbon emissions.”

Demonstrators stormed Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport in November and blocked private jets from taking off, as others cycled around the runway where jets were parked, disrupting the flow of traffic for wealthy travelers.

United Nations experts say planet-heating gases are making Earth dangerously hot.

In response, the Biden administration and other world governments have set ambitious targets to reduce the risk by switching to clean energy sources over the coming years.

As Slay News reported, the Biden admin has made the agriculture industry a key target of its green agenda.

Biden’s “climate czar” John Kerry recently declared that farmers must slash food production in order to meet the administration’s radical climate goals.

Kerry is calling for farmers to stop growing food in order to meet the administration’s radical “net zero” goals for lowering “emissions.”

During the Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) AIM for Climate Summit, Kerry told the audience that “we can’t get to net zero, we won’t get this job done, unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution.”

Kerry warned attendees that his and other world leaders’ “lives depend” on farmers ceasing their operations.

Stopping farmers from growing food will lower agriculture “emissions,” Kerry insists.

He continued by noting that he does not even call it climate change anymore.

“It’s not change; it’s a crisis,” he declared.

“Mitigating methane is the fastest way to reduce warming in the short term,” Kerry claimed as he took aim at livestock farmers.

Kerry, a multibillionaire, argued that the world’s population must slash meat consumption to “save the planet.”

German Nutrition Society: Only ONE sausage per month to stop global warming

Monday, June 12, 2023 by: Ethan Huff

Tags: absurd, badhealth, Climate, climate alarmism, climate change, food restrictions, food supply, German Nutrition Society, global warming, green tyranny, meat, sausage



This article may contain statements that reflect the opinion of the author





(Natural News) The official nutrition body in Germany has updated its meat guidelines to drastically cut the amounts that it thinks everyday Germans should consume.



After previously recommending a reduction to no more than 600 grams of meat per week per person – the average person in Germany today consumes 763 grams of meat per week – the German Nutrition Society (DGE) now wants each German person to consume no more than 10 grams per day, or 70 grams per week, of meat, which amounts to just one sausage per month, per person.



Why the sudden change, you might be asking? According to the group, it is now having to take into account “climate change” factors in addition to just nutrition standards, hence the massive reduction.



German media headlines state that the DGE “is no longer just concerned with health reasons” for making its recommendations, but is now taking into account “global warming” and other “woke” factors as well.



“The background to the planned meat reform is something completely different: in the future, environmental factors such as ‘sustainability’ will also be taken into account in the recommendations,” one sub-headline on the subject reads.



(Related: Global warming ended 12 years ago, according to scientists.)



Germans: You DON’T have to abide by the DGE’s recommendations against meat

According to the Lower Saxony Chamber of Agriculture, even just halving the amount of meat Germans consume every day would bring the country one percentage point closer to its climate goals. This is a misnomer, of course, as the energy sector is what is producing the most carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.



In a statement, Heike Harstick, general manager of the meat association, expressed disgust over the proposal, warning that many Germans are already malnourished and in need of more food, not less.



“Even in Germany, many people are already undersupplied with certain nutrients such as iron or vitamin B12,” she said to BILD.



“If the new nutritional recommendations presented by the DGE were to remain and such a drastic reduction in animal-based foods recommended, the deficiency would increase,” she added, further noting that the new planned reference values are “in no way scientifically proven.”



The good news for Germans is that DGE’s recommendations are not legally binding, but are rather just that: recommendations. People can choose for themselves how much meat they want to eat, and the DGE has no power, thankfully, to stop them.



What the DGE could try to do, though, is limit certifications strictly to restaurants that comply with its recommendations. The DGE, after all, is the body responsible for issuing certifications, which serve as a stamp of approval that a food establishment is safe and clean.



“Indeed, it awards certificates to canteens,” one report explains about the DGE’s duties. “Those that do not have it are almost considered unhealthy. Will the nutrition authority continue to issue certifications to canteens that offer meat beyond the recommended quota?”



Back in December, the new nutritional strategy proposed by the German Minister of Agriculture Cem Özdemir, entitled “The Pathway to the Federal Government’s Nutrition Strategy,” was adopted by his cabinet and slated for approval by the end of this year.



Expectedly, many people are upset about the proposal and scoffing at its recommendations. Who does the German government think it is trying to regulate how much meat people consume anyway?



“I do not know whether vegetarians or greens are more evangelical and intolerant,” one commenter wrote in ridicule of all this anti-meat madness.



“I would go with climate fanatics,” responded another. “They think they’re saving the entire world.”

King Charles Activates “Climate Clock” – Warns There is 6 Years Left to Limit Global Warming (VIDEO)

By Cristina Laila
Jun. 28, 2023 7:45 pm



King Charles III and London Mayor Sadiq Khan on Wednesday activated a ‘climate clock’ warning there are about 6 years left to limit global warming.



More like 6 years left until global Communism, New World Order, and a one world currency.



“Today with His Majesty King Charles III we launched the Climate Clock — a visual reminder of the urgency of the climate crisis. The climate emergency poses a threat not only to the future of our city but to the future of our world and that is why it must remain a key priority.” Sadiq Khan said.



WATCH:

The Daily Mail reported:



King Charles and London Mayor Sadiq Khan have launched a National Climate Clock, which warns there is just six years left for the world to limit global warning.



The King activated the clock during the Climate Innovation Forum at the Guildhall in London today, to warn the world it has just six years and 24 days to limit the heating of the earth to 1.5 degrees centigrade.



The clock also has a built in Renewable Energy Lifeline, which shows the percent of global energy coming from renewable sources currently sits at 12.5 per cent.



This tracks factors including renewable energy sources, land and inland waters managed by Indigenous Peoples, climate debt, monies contributed by countries to the Green Climate Fund, and gender parity.



The clock is the latest in a worldwide project which brings together art, science, technology and grassroots organisation to count down to the critical time window in which the globe must reach zero emissions.

White House Examining Plans that Deflect Sun’s Rays to Cool Earth


SIMON KENT
2 Jul 2023

The White House is open to studying research that details methods of deflecting sunlight away from the earth’s surface to cool the atmosphere and halt “climate change.”



“Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) and marine cloud brightening” is mentioned in the paper that reportedly also sets out unspecified research in “cirrus cloud thinning.”



Officials suggested in a report released Friday that limiting sunlight to rapidly cool the planet, a solar geoengineering process known as solar radiation modification (SRM), could hold a viable future.



The possible consideration comes at the same time the Biden administration embraces solar panels as a way to produce energy via the sun’s direct rays.

The congressionally mandated report released by the Office of Science and Technology Policy shows the research team has been examining “geoengineering” methods to keep the sun rays from accelerating global warming.



As the University of Oxford notes in its entry on the subject, “geoengineering” is “the deliberate large-scale intervention in the Earth’s natural systems to counteract climate change,” Fox News reports.



According to the report titled “Congressionally-Mandated Report on Solar Radiation Modification,” the types of geoengineering methods the Biden administration is looking into are “stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) and marine cloud brightening.”



BIDEN FLASHBACK: Can’t Afford to Heat Your House This Winter? Here’s Some Tax Credits for Solar Panels (Video at link below)


Additionally, the paper reportedly mentions there is research in “cirrus cloud thinning.”



The introduction to the report as seen by Fox News indicated research into “space-based approaches” has not been occurring as “geoengineering” is easier to implement.



The document read, “The focus on atmospheric approaches also follows from their greater near-term feasibility relative to space-based approaches.”



There is no government policy attached to the document yet as it’s just a research document but the report also says there is good logic for a cohesive research agenda on this topic.



It reads, “This Research Plan focuses on improving understanding of the potential impacts of SRM, rather than on technologies needed for deployment. Much of this research would contribute to our ability to understand basic climate processes and effects of human greenhouse gas emissions, as well as outcomes of SRM.”



The summary continues, “A program of research into the scientific and societal implications of solar radiation modification (SRM) would enable better-informed decisions about the potential risks and benefits of SRM as a component of climate policy.”

Despite the clear disclaimer others feel confident the White House likes what it sees.



“The fact that this report even exists is probably the most consequential component of this release,” Shuchi Talati, the executive director of the Alliance for Just Deliberation on Solar Geoengineering, told Politico.



“This report also signals that the U.S. government is supportive of well-governed research, including outdoor experimentation, which I think is quite significant.”



A landmark report released in March 2021 from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine addressed three kinds of solar geoengineering possibilities: stratospheric aerosol injection, marine cloud brightening, and cirrus cloud thinning.



Stratospheric aerosol injection would involve flying aircraft into the stratosphere, or between 10 miles and 30 miles skyward, and spraying a fine mist that would hang in the air, reflecting some of the sun’s radiation back into space.

ALERT: WEF Criminals will use more stick than carrot to force their fake Climate Change Agenda.


Much below on the criminals of the WEF, that have many nations doing everything they want.

Never forget what this man said – – –

I say WEF Officials will be the targets of all Patriots world-wide if they do this. THEY ALWAYS TELL YOU WHAT THEY ARE PLANNING. Keep that in mind as these evil low life scum of the WEF plan to destroy society. They are doing all they can to destroy all freedom within the next decade at latest. If American citizens weren’t armed, they would up this and do it all much faster.

More on these WEF Globalists:

AMERICA IS NEXT FOLKS> PAY ATTENTION. These evil low lives of the WEF have Biden in their back pocket as Biden does what China says thanks to massive bribes. These animals openly say they want to get the world population down to 500 Million within a few decades. How the hell is that possible without forcing us all to take killer vaccines, or massive international war? There are 8 billion humans on the planet right now. They are starting with the farms, in the US as well….. be warned.

U.N. Rights Czar — ‘Truly Terrifying’ Famines, Floods, Fires, Ahead Unless ‘Climate Change’ Addressed


SIMON KENT
3 Jul 2023

Volker Turk, the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, declared Monday the planet is “[…] burning. It’s melting. It’s flooding. It’s depleting. It’s drying. It’s dying,” as he evoked a “dystopian future” for all unless “climate change” is addressed.



AFP reports Turk told a U.N. Human Rights Council debate on food availability that extreme weather events were wiping out crops, herds and ecosystems, challenging communities and their ability to rebuild and support themselves.



The Austrian lawyer turned U.N. official said the time has come for everyone to heed the unelected body and address the long list of concerns it sees as threatening the very existence of the planet.



His message from Geneva, Switzerland, follows a common theme of recent U.N. calls for the world to change its ways while shunning those who disagree or cast doubt on “climate science.”

“More than 828 million people faced hunger in 2021. And climate change is projected to place up to 80 million more people at risk of hunger by the middle of this century,” said Turk.



He then added an ominous vision of the future, saying “Our environment is burning. It’s melting. It’s flooding. It’s depleting. It’s drying. It’s dying,” all while evoking a “dystopian future” for humanity.



Turk declared action is needed not just for today, but for the future to spare “hunger and suffering to our children, and their children. And we don’t have to.”


“We, the generation with the most powerful technological tools in history, have the capacity to change it.”



Turk said world leaders “perform the choreography of deciding to act and promising to act and then get stuck in the short term”.



He called for an end to “senseless subsidies” of the fossil fuel industry, and said the Dubai COP28 climate summit in November and December needed to be the “decisive game-changer that we so badly need,” the AFP report continued.

Turk urged the world to “shun the green-washers” as well as those who cast doubt on “climate science.”



The Human Rights Council’s 53rd session runs until July 14.
