Do we really think that this present government is about the people, for the people, of the people? Do we really believe that this push for a Tax on Carbon pollution is about anything but raising more revenue for the government and the United Nations in league with the international banks using the “New World Order” as a blueprint for the Globalisation of the New Free World?
Are we so naive that we have ignored those warnings written about, not so long ago, by the likes of Toffler and his ilk about how these unseen people will have to come up with more and more ways to separate us from our hard earned cash?
I, for one, do not believe in this transparent lie of global warming, global warming created by us the population. Talking of population, why isn’t anyone talking about that as an issue related to this matter – the world is overpopulated but is anyone talking about reducing or slowing the population growth as a measure to slow this so called warming? No they aren’t!
Is anyone talking of cancelling the debts of poorer nations as a way of influencing them to cease their annihilation of old growth forests? These are far better ways to help the planet than further taxing of our already over taxed hardworking taxpayers who are already struggling to make ends meet. After all, it wasn’t our idea to use carbon-based fuel. It was “Their” idea. I don’t remember the rank and file ever being asked: “Which fuel do you want to use to supply your electricity?”
When do we start talking about the reality of using nuclear power? This alone, properly managed, could be a solution.
Please let us not forget recent history. It has been, so therefore still is, a fact that we are cutting down way too many trees and replanting far too few. This fact alone has been conspicuous by its absence from the pages of our press and from the rhetoric of our present government. Locally it is a disaster on many levels, globally the same.
David Suzuki once said that to be a productive citizen of the world we should think globally and act locally. This is what we need to do now, to even begin to address issues that do now affect us and will affect us for years to come. The World was created by the perfect hand and prolific forests were always integral to the quality of life on this planet; I am suspicious of the attempt to take our focus away from such obvious problems as rampant logging of old growth forest and replacing them with new less understood but seemingly “hipper” subject matter. If, as history has shown, our planet undergoes cycles of warming and cooling naturally, shouldn’t we be doing much more research on the subject to get it right than has been done to date when hasty pushes towards a costly solution are seemingly our only option.
I get suspicious. Who is pushing so hard? Gee, it’s big business cleverly or not so cleverly disguised as “do gooders”. This has been pointed out in emails that have been circulating in recent times worth investigating. Wouldn’t be the first time the international banking cartels have duped and enlisted the young and outraged to do their dirty work whilst preying on the fears of the older working population threatening them with their mortgage and livelihood, keeping us distracted with issues, like trying to educate our kids and keeping a roof over our heads, while they plot and scheme to fleece yet more of our money away from us.
I remain your friend,..Angry.
