Obama Is Correct, Climate Change Is Biggest Threat, But Only Because Official IPCC Climate Science Is Completely Wrong

Guest opinion: Dr. Tim Ball

Kafkaesque is one word that encapsulates the entire Paris Conference. It is defined as:

A nightmarish situation which most people can somehow relate to, although strongly surreal. With an ethereal, “evil”, omnipotent power floating just beyond the senses.

 

There are insufficient superlatives to describe the disaster that is the UN COP21 Climate Conference in Paris. None of the superlatives are the ones used by the organizers and their lackeys. It is the largest, most political conference ever, based on completely false claims deliberately created in the greatest science deception in history. It will cost more socially in direct damage to individual lives, communities, and social structures. It will cost more in economic damage to jobs, businesses, and industry. In addition, besides destroying lives it will remove freedom and actually cost lives. It will weaken economies preventing resistance to terrorism. This far exceeds any potential damage from terrorism and is much worse because it is self-inflicted (Figure 1).

Figure 1

Maurice Strong died on the eve of the Paris Climate Conference. They are there because of him. They propose a global energy and environment agenda based on completely false science because of him. I do believe in talking ill of the dead if the evil they created continues after they die. Such is the case with Maurice Strong. Paris is a meeting of global leaders completely conned by the master manipulator – the person who fooled the world. Paris is an Orwellian gathering of people who want to save the planet, but who really want to rule the world in their manner. The French government underscored the Orwellian nature of the meeting with a government directive,

…citing the state of emergency powers and scrapping the human rights convention as justification.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau would sympathize with this directive because his father did a similar thing.

The people of Quebec are legally identified in the Canadian constitution as a distinct nation with cultural and language differences from the rest of Canada. In addition, they have their own territory (state), so their desire to become a separate nation-state was well within any of the rules set down by the Treaty of Versailles and the United Nations Charter. Pierre Trudeau used the excuse of two deaths in the struggle by the Quebec separatists (FLQ) to invoke the War Measures Act that took away every citizen’s rights completely. He then used the Canadian military to keep them silent and submissive at gunpoint.

It is not difficult to imagine any of the leaders at Paris using any excuse to take control in a similar manner. Ironically, most don’t seem to realize that the entire objective of the conference is to subjugate and then eliminate them and the individual nation states they represent. Maurice Strong planned this when he set up the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), organized and chaired the 1992 Rio Conference and created the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to produce the false scientific justification.

The most telling analysis of Maurice Strong occupies approximately 20 percent of Elaine Dewar’s book Cloak of Green.[1] The book is classic journalism because Dewar wanted to write in praise of Canadian environmentalists Maurice Strong, David Suzuki and Elizabeth May now Green Party leader and part of the Canadian Paris delegation. Dewar’s research revealed a very different story. She discovered that they were more manipulative, controlling, and with a specific political agenda than any of the people they attacked.

Strong told Dewar that it was necessary to get rid of the industrialized nations. His reason was based on the Club of Rome neo-Malthusian claim that world population was using up all resources at an unsustainable rate. He told Dewar he couldn’t do anything as a politician but at the UN

He could raise his own money from whomever he liked, appoint anyone he wanted, control the agenda.

Dewar concluded after five days with Strong at the UN that:

Strong was using the U.N. as a platform to sell a global environment crisis and the Global Governance Agenda.

Paris is the culmination of Strong’s time at the UN. A meeting built round the greatest deception in history, a deliberately created lie.

John Holdren was a very active part of the Club of Rome and carried Strong’s climate message into the White House as Obama’s science advisor. The message of undermining developed industrialized nations like the US and redistributing their wealth to developing nations oppressed by US imperialism suited Obama’s belief. He took up Strong’s deliberately orchestrated false story for his legacy. He will find out that you cannot create a legacy – history decides.

Vaclav Klaus was the only world leader to explain what was going on. He knew about totalitarian control and destruction. As he explained at the New York Heartland Climate Conference, we have just escaped 70 years of communism why the hell would you want to go back to that? He summarized the situation in a brief book titled, Blue Planet in Green Shackles, subtitled What is Endangered: Climate or Freedom? (Figure 2).

clip_image004

Figure 2

Obama used his political skills to bring together a disparate group of people whose views and understandings are in absolute conflict. A well informed catholic Pope would not sit down with socialists advocating a dramatic reduction in world population by any means possible, especially abortion. The juxtaposition is exemplified in likely one of the most bizarre images ever. Surrealist Salvador Dali portrayed the crucifixion from a different perspective than anybody else (Figure 3).

clip_image006

Figure 3

At least, it was the most unique before Evo Morales, Marxist President of Bolivia gave a statue to Pope Francis recently (Figure 3).

clip_image008

Figure 4

To make sure the Pope could not just pass off the statue of a crucifixion of Jesus Christ on a hammer and sickle and move on he put the same symbol on the chain around the Pope’s neck (Figure 5).

clip_image010

Figure 5.

Kafka would understand the scenario, but he likely could not have dreamed up such a plot and cast of characters.

John Ralston Saul wrote a book called Voltaire’s Bastards. It used the same device as an earlier play by Dostoevsky. This has a person of great historical influence return only to be shocked by the interpretation and devolution of his ideas. For Dostoevsky, it was Jesus Christ returning in the middle of the Spanish Inquisition and wandering around saying this is not what I intended. Saul has Voltaire come back in today’s world to learn that the Age of Reason and Enlightenment he envisioned is equally distorted. He would have understood one thing about Paris based on his observation that,

Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.

But with a spark of Truth. “Obama Is Correct…Climate Change IS the BIGGEST THREAT” but not the way you may think. The threat comes not from the havoc wreaked upon society by changes in climate or as a result of inaction to resolve the perceived threat but from the havoc wreaked upon society by efforts to combat the boogieman of AGW
AGW is the excuse for the redirection of wealth to seemingly fight a nonexistent monster
And, as we all know, an Excuse is nothing but the skin of a lie stuffed with reason

It might be a great show, but there was no “consensus” at the time of the Scopes trial that Evolution did not occur. In fact, the textbook teachers were required to use in class actually described and endorsed the theory of evolution. There was a local law that banned teaching evolution in public schools which was not enforced, and some thought the town could get a lot of free publicity by fostering a big show trial . .

Yes, he was also the husband of the Governor General Adrienne Clarkson. Canada is a very small country dominated by at most about 200 elites.

When a combines investigation was required of amalgamation of the Power and Argus corporations who effectively control Canada between them, they could not find the necessary 22 experts who did not in on away or another work for one of the corporations.
Incidentally, the book was called “Voltaire’s Bastards” in Canada but “Voltaire’s Children” in the US.

This is interesting. According to your link, in 1914, Maurice Strong celebrated his 85th birthday in Toronto, Canada, despite having fled to China to evade arrest for stealing money intended to to purchase food and medicine for starving Iraqi civilians. It seems that his cronies and admirers had quietly facilitated his return. The newspaper reports about his death are unclear about where it took place, but it is unlikely to have been in China.

Maurice Strong reportedly died Nov 28, 2015, no details. True, or have his history of scams and Nazi affiliations necessitated a spin prior to the Paris talks?

Lomborg could come up with all the statistics of social indicators to show that the present generation is much better off than the past generations. Very few will believe on what he says especially from the social strata who are have cornered the benefits of the current civilization . Something unusual? Or is it just ennui ?

Anybody over 60 who grew up outside the USA knows how much better we are off. Not just in financial but also in environmental terms. I was born and raised in an English Northern Industrial city and well remember the dense yellow smog resulting from people burning coal on open hearths, the old men with the hacking coughs brought on by inhaling smoke and coal dust all their lives. They looked about 80 but few were much more than 60. This was a period when few ordinary people survived much beyond retirement.
Then there was the local river which was a dead stinking sewer that you could smell before you could see it and if you fell in they would take you in to hospital, pump out your stomach and stuff you full of antibiotics. What ended all this was cheap gas and electricity coupled with sensible environmental reforms like the clean air act and the building of proper sewage treatment plants.
Now the air is clean, all the public buildings have been cleaned and I realize that their dark gray colour was just accumulated filth. Fish have returned to the river which now is used for boating and the riverbank which was dominated by semi derelict industrial buildings has been transformed into a pleasant park where people stroll and walk their dogs. Then some 18 year old idiot hands me a Greenpeace flier and tells me we should go back to ‘the good old days’

AS an avid fan of Schopenhauer, I have to correct you. It is generally translated as ‘Will and Representation’
And it isn’t what it seems to be.
Today’s eejits are far more post modern that Schopenhauer: they have taken on board the statement ‘reality is a social construct’ without understanding it, either.
The point being that today’s post modernists think like Mediaeval magicians, that what people think creates the world of interpreted experience.
The whole point of Schopenhauer is that yes, that’s held to be true, but it is not created out of nothing, it is created out of a Will that exists beyond human constructions that are placed upon it.
So whilst representation – the Weltanschauung – is a human construction, it is a view of something (the Will) that does exists beyond the scope of human thought, whose nature is relatively unaffected by how humanity chooses to relate to it.
The New Left, has leapt upon half of the metaphysic of contingent reality and used it to promote a suite of ideas that are deeply dangerous. They are like the courtiers surrounding the great Cnut, who said that a divine king should be able to command the tides to halt.
In the Weltanschauung of the Political Left, what determines (political) reality is solely what people believe.
AGW is not about real world climate, its about manipulating systems of belief, to create a political reality that advances certain political and commercial objectives.
Windmills and solar panels are not there to generate significant economic electricity, they are there to demonstrate that the Left has ‘Solutions’.
What AGW is all about is a sleight of hand, where the Left creates the problem in the minds of the political classes, and then presents various solutions to it, that don’t work, but are enough to convince most people. They don’t need to work because the problem really doesn’t exist in the first place, so any solution will do.
Now all this works stunningly provided it does not violate what I call the Real Darwin’s Law. And Leo’s Law of inevitabilities.
WE dispense with ‘survival of the fittest’ because patently in human terms it hasn’t worked. No, the real lesson of Darwin is not survival of the fittest, but eradication of the completely dysfunctional. The only criteria for survival is not sufficiently unfit to not be able by whatever it takes to produce offspring.
Leo’s Law of inevitabilities simply states that reality is what inevitably happens, whether you believe in it or not.
In this case, whether we believe in climate change or not changes ultimately nothing if the world is aloof from slight human inputs. And probably even if we are not. However the world of politics is all about belief.
And that’s why I disagree that this is like Schopenhauer. Its not. Kant and Schopenhauer are both called ‘Idealists’ but they are not. They did not believe or hold that reality as only a human construct, both held that it was a representation of something that existed a priori of the act of perceiving it.
IN Kant’s case he called that ‘things in themselves’ – Schopenhauer corrects that by pointing out that both things and indeed plurality are ‘in the eyes of the perceiver’ and it is more correct to talk if a unified somethingness, that lies beyond experience, and that unified somethingness, he called whatever it is that is generally translated as ‘Will’.
If you like the difference between Schopenhauer and the post modernists, is that the latter think that things are what they seem, and that their seemingnesses is a function of your beliefs alone..
Schopenhauer and Kant would aver that things are not just what they seem, although we have no better way of dealing with them.There is an underlying reality, which although not directly accessible, dominates the nature of how things must seem to be.
AGW does not exist just because enough people believe in it – not in the real world outside of the political bubble.
That is what Schopenhauer would have said. But that is not what the post modernists say.

Two notes: Evolution also favors organisms that evolve traits that allow them to adapt to changes in environment, or to exploit new environments, so it is positive as well as negative.
Kant attempted to delineate the boundaries of reason, beyond which it became indeterminate and capable of leading without any obvious logical error to opposite and contradictory conclusions. In a famous example, ‘the antinomies of pure reason’, he provided ‘proofs’ side by side that space was infinite, and that space must be limited, time was infinite, time had a beginning and an end, and so on. Kant used the unfortunate term ‘dialectical’ to denote the state of reason beyond the limits of its competence.
The idea of dialectical reason was seized on by the German romantic philosophers such as Fichte, Schelling and Hegel (and his disciple, Marx) as a source of gnostic vision from beyond the limits of reason which was granted to a select few initiates driven by their passion and will. Under this narrative, Instead of rational knowledge, there was only ideology driven by a pure will to power against which no appeal to rationality or morality could be made. Maurice Strong was a mystical ideologue in this mold. The Green movement’s apparent adherence to science is entirely superficial. They use it merely as a means of appealing to authority while corrupting it from the inside. Dr. Ball outlines this process in his book The Deliberate Corruption of Science.

In the US, the pursuit of Climate Change is really about the pursuit of carbon taxes, as a new revenue stream to keep the supply of OPM* coming.
Starting in 2017 according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), and getting rapidly worse every year thereafter, the US Federal deficit will begin to explode due to increasing Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security outflows. Without a new, huge revenue stream, Democrats will be forced by fiscal realities to accept massive scalebacks in these entitlements and discretionary outlays cuts to foodstamps, green energy subsidies, and college student aid. The hoped for new revenue is carbon taxes. Hence the climate change scam.
The end justifies the lies for the US progressives and Democrats in general.

Pierre Trudeau’s invoking the War Measures Act immediately came to mind when I read that Montreal is part of the Strong Cities Network. I don’t think the organization is named after Strong. People ought to be aware of it because it seems to entail the handing over of municipal policing of member cities to an international agency to deal with.’extremism’. The organization launched in September at the United Nations. So far, four American cities are also part of the network.

Obama’s incessant warbling on the climate, which most of us can recite word for word (when not tuning it out) is ample evidence that he is at the subjugation phase. Elimination comes soon enough. His replacement will be another useful idiot.

Yes, it is especially macabre that humans are doing this to ourselves, to “save” a planet that is in no need of saving and there is no menace can be detected (measured).
All with no proof of man-made global changes in the weather; with almost static global temperature, about the same numbers of tropical storms and tornadoes, and a very small rate of global sea level rise. Sea ice is growing in Antarctica while the Arctic has been recovering after reaching a minimum in 2012 (in both extent and volume).
Earth looks very much like a planet recovering from a very deep freeze 11,500 years ago, when the climate again warmed suddenly and the Younger Dryas ended.

Perfect definition of Climate Change, the total corruption of our governments.
Being politically overrun by people who buy such nonsense as a useful tool, to further their aims, tells me all I need to know.
There is nothing to the good of the citizen, taxpayer or productive member of society, included in the aims of these parasites.
Kleptocracy is unstable, as soon as it runs out of people to rob.
There are good reasons the IPCC seek “immunity from criminal prosecution”.
Seems they will have to congregate in South Korea if the scheme blows up too soon.
But what a drunkards dream, total control via regulation, taxation and fines, while being totally unaccountable to the citizens being fleeced.”We’re from the Govt, we are here to help you”
“We are from the UN,we’re here to help you.”
Free you from those pesky responsibilities that private property and individual rights impose.

Pierre Trudeau’s son, Justin, is the newly elected Prime Minister of Canada. The former drama teacher’s 20 year closest friend and political adviser is Gerald Butts, former head of World WIldlife Fund in Canada.
Obama’s Precision Strategies data drilling election machine was imported to Canada for Justin.
All making sense now?

Justin’s father Pierre Trudeau was a full blown leftist and could not get elected until he became a LINO [Lib In Name Only]. Then, after being elected as PM, he proceeded to ruin Canada. IMO.

Just watched Joe Bastardi debate an Eco Loon about climate change on Fox. He had a good opportunity to speak and debate but got into an argument with very little substance instead. As a spokesman for the Skeptic side, he needs better tactics in debating. Left me wanting. An opportunity wasted.

I think Joe might have preferred wrestling over debate team when he was in school. 😉

1 Billion Earthians are unemployed, hungry! War is killing millions, even after end of 2nd WW!
Environmental treat is by those, who have created above ‘minor’ problems! Who will address the ‘main problem’?

“Who will address the ‘main problem’?”
That would be you.
I addressed it myself. People I respect did the same. You aren’t by any chance waiting for someone else to do it for you? Because that won’t happen.

It is Advocacy garbage like this that makes any real scientific debate irrelevant. To many third rate Journo’s can put up ‘beliefs’ as facts and get away with it.

It seems like United Nations continues to produce megalomaniacal bureaucrats:
“This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for the, at least, 150 years, since the industrial revolution,”
– Christiana Figueres, who heads up the U.N.’s Framework Convention on Climate Change
I can think of a few others who had personal ideas about bringing about huge changes to our society. It didn´t always turn out well.
Who voted for Christina Figueres by the way?
None!
And that is quite peculiar – as the United Nations is also concerned about human rights, which states:
Article 21. (3) The will of the people shall be the basis of the authority of government; this will shall be expressed in periodic and genuine elections which shall be by universal and equal suffrage and shall be held by secret vote or by equivalent free voting procedures.
United Nations is far out of line with it´s charter.
“The UN was not created to take mankind to heaven, but to save humanity from hell.”
— Dag Hammarskjöld, Secretary-General from 1953 to 1961
War is hell, United Nations climate theory is at best an immature theory.
