NBC’s ObamaVision: Will Peacock’s News Division Expose the Alarmism?
by Patrick Courrielche“Why can’t we ignore [global warming]? Because it’s the biggest crisis we’ve ever faced.” — Al Gore, April 24, 2009, Testimony before the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Climate Change Legislation.
Next week NBC is entering their “Green Week” of programming, infusing environmental messages across many of their prime-time shows. But the campaign does not only include entertainment programs – the eco-messaging will also be spread through NBC News’ Nightly News, Meet the Press, and the Today Show.
My question for the NBC News organization is this – will you be discussing the biggest global warming story of the year?
Early this year a study from Oregon State University, entitled Reproduction and the carbon legacies of individuals, contained the single biggest decision that anyone could make to dramatically lower their carbon footprint. And that decision? Have fewer kids.
The results of the report are actually mind boggling for anyone somewhat informed on environmental policy. The study investigates how the reproductive choices of an individual affects their “carbon legacy”, or said differently, the CO2 emissions attributable to a person’s offspring. What they found was that a US citizen’s decision of having a child adds 5.7 times the expected CO2 emissions for that citizen. Yes, 5.7 times!! This is due to the domino effect of your kids having kids, which have kids, and so on.
An even more astounding aspect of the report was a comparison of the addition of two children to, say, the standard practices that lower your carbon footprint. For example, if a woman adopted all of the six eco-friendly behaviors highlighted in the report, she would reduce her carbon footprint by 486 tons of CO2 over her lifetime. But if she were to have two children, this would eventually add nearly 40 times that amount of CO2 to the earth’s atmosphere.
The decision of having fewer children decreases the carbon legacy of an individual by a staggering amount and is by far the single biggest decision an individual can make to affect the environment. This finding cannot be overstated. So it begs the question, why hasn’t the report affected global warming legislation?
As Al Gore has stated, “Our world faces a true planetary emergency.” If his apocalyptic vision is true, why has not one piece of legislation adopted an incentive for individuals to have fewer children?
I can think of only one possible answer…there is no emergency.
Around the time my beautiful daughter was born just a few years ago I noticed the increase in “stuff” attributed to her that went into our garbage on a daily basis. This rather obvious phenomenon sparked a question in my head that I shared with an eco-activist working on a “green” project of mine. “Why doesn’t the green movement encourage people to have less children as a solution to this global emergency,” I asked. “Well, we don’t talk about that because it isn’t politically correct,” he responded.
It was this answer, by someone spreading the message of apocalypse, that started my gradual transformation away from the alarmist position of global warming.
Having “fewer children” is not a policy that I am advocating here. I use it merely as a litmus test to the alarmist’s urgency. If China is any example, the “one-child” mandate has horrific social consequences. However, if we truly face the biggest crises we’ve ever encountered, the global warming proponents would surely have the political will to pass controversial legislation. Political correctness should not even remotely be the first concern for this group. In fact, it would hardly be considered controversial if the consequences were actually between life and extinction.
As recently as this past Monday, Senator John Kerry penned a Huffington Post article that read (emphasis added):
Now it’s time for a new generation of Americans to get in motion – because the very survival of our planet depends on them. Now is the time for young people who learned to flex their political muscle last November to shift into high-gear and get Washington to take on our historic legislation to combat global climate change.
For those that feel that our world will literally cease to exist, the findings in this report should have been viewed as the silver bullet to stop or, at the very least, dramatically slow the effects of global warming. But it wasn’t.
Why? Because companies like GE, the parent company of NBC News, doesn’t make a dime from a “solution” such as the one presented in the report. And Big Government can’t tax such a solution either. But both benefit from the “historic” cap-and-trade legislation pushed by Senator Kerry and the like. And if there is no emergency, why not take the money route.
Now of course there are sincere people that have a real concern for our environment and man-made pollution. I know many of them and include myself in that mainstream group. They create low toxicity products, encourage recycling and reuse, and are producing higher fuel efficient vehicles each year. We really do need to pay attention to our natural resources and protect against harmful effects on the environment. But after several years of working in the green movement, I’ve come to a rather cynical, yet I believe accurate, conclusion about global warming alarmism.
And that conclusion – global warming alarmism is a weapon, used by those wielding it, for personal gain.
Few would be surprised that MSNBC has aligned itself with this administration’s climate change legislation. But for non-opinion news organizations, studies like the “carbon legacy” report should provide ample fodder for questioning alarmist environmental policy. It shows just how far the hand of Big Green has reached into our lives when both NBC News and the heralded Meet The Press willfully agree to promote global warming legislation rather than turn a critical eye to alarmism.

I think the policy to not have children should have started years ago. The mother of Al Bore would have done the nation good if she decided to not have him.
About 6 years ago I went backt to school. I had to take 2 science classes. There were entry level classes. they along with their labs basically left me thinking that the enviro people would consider man kind a crisis untill we all moved into caves. That seemed to be the acceptable option when compared to killing off 5/6th of all mankind.
they of course would never comeout and say this, besides it might expose the crisis of an apalling lack of caves.
same for stanly ann dunham.
[...] original post here: NBC’s ObamaVision: Will Peacock’s News Division Expose the Alarmism? This entry is filed under America – Blogs, Big Hollywood. You can follow any responses to this [...]
global warming, or climate change are as you say a tool to hang around our heads to tax the crap out of us. but in reality there will always be climate change, just look back in time. we know there are plant remains under the north pole, we know there was much hotter weather in england in the 1300's. the earth will always change. it gets hotter, and colder. what exactly is the proof of global warming? here in the midwest we are having record cold weather, but we are told it is because of global warming, huh?
I would suggest a reading of the site of http://www.wattsupwiththat.com Anthony is a meteorologist, and he's the one who started going around checking out the official weather stations the US uses (it has most of them) for the "official" record. About 900 of the 1200 US sites have been surveyed, and about 89% have compromised data because of bad placements. there are also frequently articles from leaders in these fields proving the cherry-picking of hte AGW crowd. They publish ALL the data, and highlight what the AGW researcher used and show the difference – sometimes pretty extreme, between the two sets. There is so much out there the AGW crowd ignore because it is "inconvienent." Pity the MSM won't cover it.
oh, and the "official" agencies not only rely on compromised data, they then "adjust' the data so it looks more impressive for their cause.
You also don't see Gore doing *anything* to lower his carbon footprint.. His own house uses 200X's the average American's house. The Press also won't tell you Bush's house is *very* energy efficient. (snopes has pix and stat's)
Yup, the environmental wackos are finally coming to the logical conclusion of their religion: no more babies. The last, and final, step is to kill people. Fewer people = fewer carbon pollution. It's all to save the planet, of course. Can't have any of those evil humans running around, destroying the environment.
Regardless of big Al's international acclaim – nobel prize, the stalin award, the Mao trophy, etc., his critical thinking needs more exposure. How 'bout hawking the Gore Collection on ShopNBC? There you can trade carbon credits, buy crap that doesn't work for a 500 % markup, purchase a windmill, or adopt a polar bear, guarenteed to invoke a nasty neighborhood uprising. Of course Al's greatest speeches etched in limestone, granite or papyrus will be a favorite. Act now and get em by Christmas – oops, no, the winter festivus.
Gotta love the logic:
Mankind is faceing extinction though man-made pollution. Therefore, if we cut populations by half, or more, with each generation human beings will be extinct much faster than if we wait for global warming to kill us.
Awesome–I can't wait till they tell us that there are too many people NOW and we have to have gas showers, and solar powered killing ovens to rid the planet of all those undesirable extra people. Do you think they will let us call them Nazis then?
Shame on my Conservative brothers and sisters!
I'm one of those who loves the environment… (inside my house). Yep, in the summertime, I crank the thermostat down to 68 degrees. Sometimes, I have to put on a sweater and build a small fire, just to get cozy. When I look out the window at all the idiots in shorts, I just laugh like hell.
No, seriously, I put my thermostat where I want it, winter and summer. The very idea that some lame-ass like Obama is going to change my daily life is anathema to me. I have no belief whatever in this whole submit-to-our-edicts-because-Al-Gore-says-we're-gonna-die bullshit.
There are some very strange thought patterns going around. Amazingly enough, Libtards have no problem contorting their minds into pretzel shapes, just to accomodate the inherent contradictions.
Good point, beyond the pale!
I for one would like to hasten the inevitable effects of "Global Warming" so these mindless dolts preaching this bull would all dry up and blow away. I'm sure this study by the University of Oregon used the same mathematical models and science that goes into an Astrology Forecast that determines my horoscope each week.
how about retro birth control
they know they are losing the argument…
It was a fraud to begin with. Much like the 'Ice Age' of the 70's, or Paul Erlich's wasteland prediction of the 80's.
An offshoot of the eugenics movement (which has returned in force, check out John Holdren in Obama's cabinet)
the so-called 'climate change' movement is just another arrow in the quiver of the New World Order- one world government- crowd.
It is about controlling EVERY aspect of your life. Where, and how you eat, drink, reproduce- and live. Oh, and how you think, and act as well.
Other than that it's harmless…
Early this year a study from Oregon State University, entitled Reproduction and the carbon legacies of individuals…
Only a
foolliberal would believe research produced by OSU. Assuming the law of conservation, since Oregon has such a dearth of common sense, there must be some other place where it is much more common and sensible.THIS IS THE WORLD YOUR CHILDREN WILL INHERIT IF WE STOP HAVING KIDZ. PLEASE WATCH!

As Uncle Joe put it:
"No man, no problem."
It sounds like a self-resolving problem then. As societies advance, their death rates go down, but so do their birthrates. Thus the US down to nearly replacement rate while many of the ethnic European nationalities are shrinking. Assuming current trends continue then global population should peak and begin to decline in the 2030's.
Historians will cite Cap and Tax and ObamaCare, as the key events that send us into economic ruin. Think of the carbon footprint of milions burning garbage in 55 gallon barrels to stay warm outside their tents because they no longer have jobs or homes. It happened before. look-up "Hoover towns"
I think the true believers in AGW should step up and show how much they care about the planet…no sacrifice is too great.
What I am still trying to figure outis- if everyone quits having kids- in 40-50 years, who will be left the libs to rule over?
Bt on the bright side, there will be no more libs either
So in the coming carbon-control regime, will women be awarded carbon credits for having an abortion?
From the sound of things, they could generate some serious money that way…
You said: We really do need to pay attention to our natural resources and protect against harmful effects on the environment.
Why? All the info that supports your concern comes from the very same people who've made you cynical. Wise up as O'Reilly says- use of resources is a market solution NOT some hand wringing alternative.
Those whacked out anti-human far left groups have been floating around the fringes for as long as I can remember.
This is simply their chance to go main stream.
No, that's not true. Gore is doing a lot of things. For example, he takes money out of one of his pockets, puts it in to his other pocket, calls it a carbon credit, and encourages others to join him by also putting money in his pocket.
Think of how much poorer all those lunatic fringe eco-nuts are? That's donations that can't make to politicians!
Oh no, those whack jobs have been floating around for years. I remember them back in the 1960's & 70's.
Man made global warming simply gives them cover.
If you pay close enough attention, you will see at least two things. They get to decide who lives and dies, and they're not the ones doing the dying.
"my beautiful daughter was born just a few years ago" Hope she is healthy and happy. Her daddy is kicking arse.
The tide is turning America. Full court press.
Allow me to let you in on a little modern liberal secret. They don't really get along all that well. But one thing they are able to do is ignore their differences and unite against any ideology that doesn't worship them. They simply pretend the other member of their coalition isn't doing or promoting what they are.
How does left leaning pro-life Catholics politely sit down with pro-abortion NOW? Simple. Pro-life Catholics pretend the democratic party doesn't support abortion, while NOW pretends leftists Catholics don't oppose abortion. So they smile, shake hands, and go about the party business.
Same thing with big labor and eco-nuts who want to kill jobs.
Granted, not all who call themselves democrats do this, and not to the same extent, but that's how they do it. And if some one refuses to go along with these charades?
Well, I guess they end up over here at BH posting comments.
Is it really eugenics, the creating of a "master race"? 'Cause no matter what the libs say, their policies keep developing a massive hoard of worker drones who have no chance and no hope of ever advancing, ruled by a small group of the political elite who have done nothing noteworthy to attain and retain their status but mere existence. At this rate in a hundred years or so we will be permanently locked into a hive society, with the only great change that may be expected being an extinction event.
But hey, if it is really that important to save the planet from mankind…
I do my part.
Every Earth Day I crank out as much carbon as I possibly can.
I came across a most interesting report on the internet last year, courtesy of Rush.
Two reporters combed through the Library of Congress archives for published MSM reports concerning global climate change.
They found every 25 – 30 years or so, they flip between global warming and global cooling. And its been going on since that 1870's.
That seems to be the process, once they've lost all credibility with a generation, they skip one, flip the paradigm, and they're back in business.
You forgot to factor in immigration. That keeps the US population rising.
Mark Steyn has done all kinds of writings, and I think even a book or two on demographics. Have a look through his archives.
http://www.steynonline.com/
They'll probably fund cloning so they can live forever.
An excellent example of the true strategy of the left, and what their global warming hoax is really all about.
Modern liberals excel at victimhood politics. They look at a group of people, decide which side is more likely to vote for them, then beat them over the head until they buy into the victimhood status, then turn them on the voters less likely to vote for them.
Global warming is the largest victim class on the planet. Every human alive. So, stick with me, this is not logical, but that's why it works for them. Unless you agree with global warming, then you want the planet to die, so every one should hate and oppose you.
The real beauty of this scam is you can blame anything and everything on global warming. What ever you are for, or what ever you are against, you too can fall under the big tent of saving the world.
These lunatic fringe nuts have been dancing on the fringe since at least the late 1960's. And now they can come in from the cold, under the guise of saving the planet.
The scary thing (well, one of the scary things . . .) about the Global Warming/Climate Change hullabaloo is that it's taking attention away from environmental issues that actually should be addressed: particulate content in the air, actual pollution levels in oceans, lakes, and rivers, recycling, etc.
It blows my mind-how can a group of people who claim devotion to the environment adhere so willingly and completely to distorted science, based on the premise of rising levels of a gas which is an ecological necessity (yeah, even at higher levels)? I'm beginning to believe that, with a few exceptions, liberals go green because it's socially expedient, while conservatives practice sound environmental stewardship because it's actually the right thing to do.
Anyone else sick of getting "Climate Change" plants on Facebook?

it won't take 100 years…
But that is the goal. Just refer back to George Bernard Shaw and other eugenicists of their time. You'll see a direct thread. Then google 'Georgia Guidstones'- and you will see the 10 commandments of the new age.
Commandment one? Do not let the population of earth exc eed 500 million.

Bummer. My entry-level science class professor said there's no proof to substantiate global warming theory. I'm sure he's been "re-educated" since then.
Madening, right? There used to be a Bering Sea land bridge, but ocean levels rose after *gasp* global warming at the end of an ice age, and now Alaska and Russia are separated by the Bering Sea. Must have been all those wooly mammoth methane emissions, I'm sure
That's why it's now called "climate change". It's a handier catch-all than "global warming".
I am all about thermostat control when it comes down to it. Not only is there the monetary reasoning behind it, but you do save energy because our resources are finite. However, government mandating how I live in my home is ridiculous. I am in total agreement there. The hypocrisy of these alarmist morons is staggering. Al Gore has to charter a jet to haul his ample ass around to conferences around the world peddling his nonsense all the while making 10s of millions of dollars doing it. His father (who was part owner of Occidental Oil BTW) would be proud. Charlatanism must be genetic.
These people are bat$H1t insane.
Birth rates for Muslim populations in Europe are sky high. Hispanic birth rates here in the states for HIspanics is high too. The age of the Anglo is waning.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials. Definitely "Do as I say, not as I do." Does that count as "common ground" with conservatives?
Number 1 has long been trashed, that genie is not going back in the bottle anytime soon. From here it would take a near-extinction event. Could be a massive world-wide epidemic, which could quickly get out of control, and possibly mutate into something that could infect anyone who "just happened" to be vaccinated against the original strain. A sudden and brutal Ice Age would work, triggered by mankind aggressively trying to "cool off" the planet to "combat humanity's greatest crrisis," hint hint.
Of course, the traditional and most reliable method of regulating the population has always been true poverty, starvation coupled with the demands of survival precluding the caring of the weak. This also improves the species by survival of the fittest.
Which seems to indicate that liberals really are not part of this "new age eugenics" stuff, as they continue to encourage an ever-growing population of the generally helpless who are absolutely dependent on the government for survival.
Really, if they did believe this "population control" crap, they would be demanding an immediate end to all foreign "humanitarian" aid as well as the destruction of the welfare state. Don't forget the ending of all gun control. That should clear out the deadwood pretty quick, and leave us with a smaller well-mannered more-intelligent population. Isn't that what they say they want?
I say, if you want "0" population growth……….GO KILL YOURSELF! Start there………….and leave the rest of us who love life, alone!
The sad part is that all the "0" population control people were brought into this world by people who love life!
They want to live, but want YOU to kill off your offspring! DON'T BUY THE HYPE! WE NEED MORE PEOPLE TO PAY OFF THE DEBT the Obumbler administration has forced on us all! HAVE BABIES, LOT'S OF THEM!!!!
Buy American! GIVE TAX BREAKS TO BUSINESSES TO BRING THE JOBS BACK TO THE US! ……….
Stop triple packaging products! Stock up on regular light bulbs, the "new" bulbs CAN KILL YOU, and they can burn your house down if you put them outlets that have 'dimmer' switches!!! THEY DIDN'T TELL YOU THAT, DID THEY!
It's a small comfort to know that the people who buy this crap are the same people I don't want to reproduce anyway. But sadly, they're probably coming for me first.
The freakin climate CHANGES every day! THAT'S WHY WE HAVE 'WEATHER REPORTS, RAIN STORMS, SNOWFALL, ETC……..that's just the way the world works! We breathe out C02….good for the plants!
Without climate change, what would weathermen do? Anyone who is worried about the air being clean should call Washington, DC and tell them to stop 'chemtrailing' us with chemicals, seeding clouds to produce 'unnatural weather'!
Look, before central heat, back in the day, everyone burnt wood and coal to heat their homes……since man started to live indoors…..ALL OVER THE WORLD! NOW WE HAVE A PROBLEM????? For thousands of years, no………….the last 50 yes????? C'mon, we are NOT that stupid! THEY THINK WE ARE!!!
I must admit that I lied. My energy use is modest (although it might be considered profligate by a committed greenie).
And I recognize the finite nature of our energy resources. Further, as a Conservative, I tend to conserve, since it's just part of my nature. All that said, though, by the time we're out (or nearly out) of our present day sources of energy, we'll have new methods in place. One energy source, nuclear, has been pretty much killed by the greenies. That won't last, though, when we truly start feeling the pinch.
My favorite comment on this page comes from Vainamoinen:
"Green Activists are hypocrites…if they were really concerned with their carbon footprint, they would kill themselves to save the planet*. Until they do, ipso facto they have no credibility.
*See also: Win-Win situation "'
It might sound crude, but give it a chance, LOL. Makes perfect sense to me.
I think you've posted (elsewhere) a similar sentiment about Green Activists killing themselves to "save the planet." In any case, I LOVE IT!!!
Great thought, well expressed. Thanks a load. (I also referred to your remarks in a comment/reply above.)
It's funny as hell. I laugh every time I read it. It's good mood, it's got meaning, LOL.
The "HEAD" OF THIS COUNTRY JUST ROLLED INTO CHINA WITH A 71 CAR CONVOY! HOW'S THAT FOR A CARBON FOOTPRINT…….IT'S MORE LIKE 'BIGFOOT' CAME TO TOWN! LOL!
I've had these kinds of thoughts since before ThuggObama was elected. I hope we're both wrong, but I seriously doubt we are. Thanks for the insightful comment.
This is one of your best comments ever. Good thinking, well expressed. Thank you, EdSki.
Short, sweet and true! I love it!
Your passion shines through every word in your comment. Good going, irishkay1. You ain't wrong and you sure as HELL ain't lyin'!
We need more babies. Babies are wonderful. Idiot green nut environmentalists are wrong, just plain wrong.

Yeah, it saves on reprinting the brochures!
Thanks, I got up early!
How is that any different than people back in the day heating themselves by an open fire? We see that on the "Discovery Channel" all the time, our ancesters, the first inhabitants of the earth, did that on a daily basis, they hunted for food, made weapons, killed to eat…..it's called surviving…..we may go back to that…….at least we'll be free!

Yet 11 reporters were assigned to check Sara's book for accuracy. Eleven reporters?
Unwritten rule of the left. If a person is a lefty, then everything they say or do is absolutely 100% certified correct.
That's why they never question anything. Blind loyalty. "Global warming? Al Gore says yes, he's a democrat, therefore it must be true.
you make some salient points…
However do not confuse mainstream liberalism, or the belief system of the'useful idiots' with those who really call the shots. Yes, it seems counterintuitive that they would be against a larger underclass but if they can have complete power- and a, say 500 million population- this would be preferable. Understand- they think Gaia is 'sick' and will only get better when a lot of us 'go away'…
Go go go….Irishkay!! I'm with you! I joined the light bulb resistance and started stocking up last year. The sorry thing is that too many people are completely uneducated on real science and are getting sucked down the drain pipe with Al Gore's filthy human waste that comes out of his mouth.

"Green Activists are hypocrites…" and socialists.
Environmentalists are watermelons — Green on the outside; red on the inside. When the USSR imploded, the commies had to go somewhere. Guess where they went.
From what I understand, the sun has had an increased level of sunspot acitvity the past x number of years. This stopped a year or two ago with concurrent decreases in global temperatures (if the earth EVER had a fever). For the record, MARS heated up, too, something the "scientists" don't talk about.
great article. Thank you.
True, the vast majority of liberals are well-meaning types who would be appalled at such a "Master Plan." However to put the two together, it would seem necessary to assume the creation of such a massive drone class is dedicated to crashing the governmental system with an unsustainable burden, after which they can firmly assume control and implement their plan uncontested. For one thing, that is extraordinarily risky with no sure guarantee they would come out on top.
For the main reason it would not work, there are the top level "useful idiots" who serve the very few trying to control things from the pinnacle, perhaps are the idealogical servants of the Green Agenda itself. They are recruited by their lust for power. Well, as can clearly see, they can get power by the political processes in place, no need for wasteful anarchy. If they have to ride herd over the teeming mass of useful idiots who provide them their power, fine with them. Once they get enough power they are satisfied, and unless their "masters" can effectively take it away whenever they please, the heck with the Agenda.
It is a self-defeating method of controlling humans, because it involves humans to implement. And human nature continues to triumph over any such high-minded ideal, for better or worse.
Jonathan Swift, call your office…
I totally agree. Nuclear will become a viable option once again. I am tired of fluke examples being given to counter the nuclear movement like Chernobyl and 3-mile Island. Technology has gotten so much better since then, so why not go nuclear? Subs have been using small reactors for many years no with almost no incidents. It is a proven technology and one definitely worth pursuing. So solar up your house and reactor up the country and you can call us energy independent. Until then it's just a dream.

Agreed, but you have to admit, it was funny over the last few winters reading reports about global warming conferences being canceled because of snow and ice.
I like it.
Ya got that right! It was funny, and the fact that it was the coldest summer! Our crops were terrible!
I'm glad I didn't have to rely on my harvest to survive this winter…..we would have starved! Hey, maybe Al Gore will let me eat at his house, I heard he has a lot of lights, heat, and carbon (footprint, that is)!
Besides Martin Sheen hasn't been arrested for sometime now, tho his son, Charlie, does his best to make up for it.
A farmer! Excellent. My wife grew up on a dairy farm in upstate NY.
I, however am a city boy, so not sure if this is the right way to ask the question, but what do you farm? What kind crops do you plant.
As for Al Gore, he can burn as much carbon as he wants (which he does, in copious amounts, every time he opens his mouth). After all he donates millions in carbon credits to the Al Gore Carbon Credit foundation, or what ever the heck they call it these days.
What a scam. It shows just how unable the left is to the scams their own politicians are playing on them. He pulls money out of one pocket, holds it up (the left swoons, some even pee a little), puts it in his other pocket, and they faint.
Careful, you might be getting close to "real science" that's simply not acceptable commrade.
There's a car at my church with the bumber sticker "Have Kids: God's Stimulus Package". It's true!
We try to grow a little bit of everything! No dairy though, you got to really know what your doing to be a dairy farmer, tough job, a lot of hours, but great rewards, and the calves are precious!
It's flawed accounting. If my carbon footprint is doubled because I have a child, then my child's carbon footprint is zero; it's already been counted into mine. Maybe my father's footprint is doubled because he insinuated me into the world…then I don't count as destroying the earth. And if it's x5.7, then it's 2.85 times as stupid. Treehuggers love making up tricky bogus facts like this.
you would think- but the minion class is turned against each other routinely. And the upper hierarchy sees these people as a- what else- means to an end- think Heydrich's SS consuming Rohm's SA after they had served their purpose. Read some ot 'their' publications. You'll see forums in
Mother Earth News where they blithely discuss 90% reductions in our population in the name of 'sustainability'. As if it wouldn't somehow impact THEM. The disconnect here is amazing.
Now we don't think they will be able to pull this off. You are correct in many of your observations. But it doesn't mean they won't try. Listen, if a Czech researcher hadn't taken it upon himself to test Baxter's HINI vaccine on some ferrets- which all died- several million doses of lethal virus would have been administered and we would have the true planetary crisis that some desire.
Purpose or accident? Do some research on this and see for your self…
