Experts Warn World Economic Forum’s Net Zero Goals Will Kill 4+ Billion People.

 


Bond Villain (or Scooby Doo villain) lookalike Klaus Schwab, President of the World Economic Forum (WEF)

The WEF and its fellow unelected billionaire psychopath globalist leaders are pushing for governments around the world to rapidly phase out fossil fuels. Leading experts have spoken out against their plans and are warning the public that the WEF’s “Net Zero” goal to eliminate fossil fuels will result in the deaths of over four billion people or more.

The “Net Zero” target to end fossil fuel use is part of the WEF and UN’s “Agenda 2030” and “Agenda 2050” plans for humanity and involves dramatically reducing fossil reliance by 2030 and completely eliminating their use by 2050.

The WEF continues to push its agenda and has been calling for taxpayers worldwide to pay $3.5 trillion per year, which they insist is necessary to fund the noble global power in order to meet the globalist organisation’s “Net Zero” goal of “decarbonizing” the planet. 

However, critics argue that “decarbonization” is just a euphemism for the WEF’s anti-human agenda and experts are raising the alarm about what this will actually mean for civilization, which includes the death of over four billion people.

Starvation

Danish statistician Bjørn Lomborg is just one who has warned that ending fossil fuel use will lead to the deaths of around half of the world’s population through starvation alone.

“4 billion people are dependent on fossil fertilizer for food,” Lomborg notes. “Without, 4 billion will starve to death. “It is time to call out the astoundingly destructive & misanthropic campaigners,” he declared.

The article Lomborg was responding to was by British economist Neil Record in the Telegraph, who argued that the number of people that might die was closer to six billion. ... Continue reading >>>

 

 

Germany Burns Net Zero Pledges And Fires Up Coal Generating Plants Ahead Of Winter Peak Electricity Season
On Wednesday this week Germany's coalition government approved putting coal power plants back online until the end of March 2024 to ensure energy security when natural gas supplies cannot meet demand. Though Germany has for at least a decade vied with Britain to claim leadership of Europe's ill - advised push for net zero, the Berlin government has been forced into this move

Will Germany be the first to ditch its net zero commitments?
Things are not going well in Germany’s bid to reach net zero by 2045, five years earlier even than Britain’s own unrealistic target. For months, the German government has been trying to devise a way to save its heavy industry from high energy prices which are sending production fleeing to Asia. Last year, chemicals giant BASF announced that it would invest in a new £10 billion plant in China, due to the cost of energy.

Another Setback For UK's Net Zero Green Dreams As Cost Rise Faster Than China's CO2 Emissions
The UK ruling elite's dreams suffered another setback today when Swedish energy company Vattenfall announced work on the Norfolk Boreas offshore wind farm is to be suspended. The reasons given are spiralling costs, uncertainty in supply lines and the economic reality that offshore wind farms are hideously expensive to operate as well as being enormously damaging to the marine environment.

Implosion of Germany's Green Party Threatens To Destabilse EU
With the defeat of Donald Trump in the 2020 US election, the far left parties in Liberal Democracies celebrated the defeat of the far right. At around the same time it appeared that Germany's AfD party, Italy's Lega and and the Sweden Democrats had been discredited and surges in their popularity had been halted by negative propaganda campaigns while Germany's Green Party were at the height of their popularity and were hailed as Europe's great hope for a clean, net zero, woke, gay and trans friendly future.

Common Sense Prevails: Germany Is Dismantling Wind Turbines To Make Room For Coal Mining
We have learned vial a piece in OilPrice.com that turbines at a wind farm in western Germany are being dismantled to allow for the expansion of open cast coal mining operations at an adjacent site.

New UN Report on Climate Change – Nothing New, Nothing True
The latest United Nations (“UN”) Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (“IPCC”) report, published this week, once again, in scaremongering tone and the language of the panic stricken, claims that the planet is in peril (we are facing climate disaster, the clock is at one minute to midnight, we must take urgent action to destroy civilisation if we are to save the planet, the usual over - dramatised guff designed to spread fear and panic,) basically the same claim as they have been making at least twice a month for the past 20 years.

We need energy security – not Net Zero
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has prompted a major rethink in the West. We have suddenly found ourselves vulnerable not just to rising prices in oil and gas, but also to inflation in other commodities – such as food and fertiliser. Of all these problems, the security of our energy supply has most exercised minds.

Net Zero Gone With The Wind - Boris Johnson Plans Seven New Nuclear Plants And Shelves Wind Expansion
Reports in mainstream media suggest Boris Johnson has done a U turn on his recently announced massive expansion of wind powered generating capacity. Sources in Westminster claim Boris has shelved his masterplan for a giant, floating wind farm in The North Sea and the government will reconsider plans to double or even treble the number of wind turbines in the countryside and approve plans for up to seven new nuclear reactors instead.

Julian Assange Loses Appeal: British High Court Accepts U.S. Request to Extradite Him for Trial

Press freedom groups have warned Assange’s prosecution is a grave threat. The Biden DOJ ignored them, and today won a major victory toward permanently silencing the pioneering transparency activist. In a London courtroom on Friday morning, Julian Assange suffered a devastating blow to his quest for freedom. A two-judge appellate panel of the United Kingdom’s High Court ruled that the U.S.’s request to extradite Assange to the U.S. to stand trial on espionage charges is legally valid.

Goodbye Freedom, Hello Global Governance.
If at any time during the chaos the past eighteen months you have wondered what kind of idiots are running the world and have gleefully trashed economies, disrupted social and commercial life and stripped citizens of their rights and liberties only to bring us, in late October 2021, right back to where we were in late February 2020 when the words pandemic and COVID crept into our consciousness ...

We need a referendum on net zero to save Britain from the green blob

from The Daily Telegraph
As with membership of the EU, the political elite is imposing a revolution on the public without consent. Does the blob never learn? Voters don’t like being treated like naughty children

A Mostly Wind- & Solar-Powered US Economy Is A Dangerous Fantasy
When President Biden and other advocates of wind and solar generation speak, they appear to believe that the challenge posed is just a matter of currently having too much fossil fuel generation and not enough wind and solar; and therefore, accomplishing the transition to "net zero" will be a simple matter of building sufficient wind and solar facilities and having those facilities replace the current ones that use the fossil fuels.

Debunked: The Great Renewable Green Delusion
The war in Ukraine has not caused the global energy crisis of early 2022 byt merely exacerbated it. Currently the nations currently in conflict with Russia over its incursion into Ukraine are those which are most dependent for their energy needs on Russian oil and gas. And now their loonytoons 'net zero' green energy policies have failed they are biting the hand that feeds them.

Even If The War In Ukraine Ends, Sanctions Will Stay - So How Bad Will The Food Crisis Get?
Western leaders, desperate to show their own countries they were taking a firm stance on Russia's invasion of Ukraine, were quick to impose economic sanctions ... so quick in fact that they acted before they had though things through. While freezing Russia out of the global finance system they have exacerbated the wests energy crisis, while Russia's retaliatory ban on raw materials (fertiliser) exports will create extra problems on top of those we already had ...

Has The Green Blob's War On Fossil Fuels Been Lost On The Battlefields Of Ukraine
With some energy sector opinion makers already pronouncing the 'net zero' agenda is already dead as oil and gas supplies from Russia dry up due to NATO / EU sanctions and Moscow's retaliatory export bans which have only been in force a week at the most, governments in the liberal democracies of Europe and North America are already talking about starting up redundant coal and nuclear power stations, the UK, Netherlands and other nations with offshore gas operations in the North Sea are suddenly finding that it may now be economically viable to start pumping again and (whisper it ever so quietly,) coal is coming back into the reckoning as an energy source ...

We Told You So - Government-funded Report Confirms World’s Largest offshore Wind Farm is UnprofitableA report commissioned by the Norwegian government has contradicted Boris Johnson’s recent claim that offshore wind costs have fallen by 70% in a decade. The report also blows a huge hole in Johnson's grandiose pledges to the COP26 conference that offshore wind power would propel Britain to its net - zero target for Carbon Dioxide emissions well before 2050, the target set by the climate conference for achieving that target.

Animal Rebellion’ Vegan Nazis Pour Milk On Supermarket Floor in ‘Plant-Based Future’ Protest

A group of vegan Nazi eco-warriors and animal rights activists protested against nourishing food in supermarkets across Britain on Saturday, pulling bottles of milk from shelves and pouring the contents on floors and other items on sale to advocate for a mandatory plant-based diet.

Several supermarket chains in Edinburgh, London, Manchester, and Norwich were hit by members of the Animal Rebellion organisation who vandalised the aisles, by dumping milk on the floors and on other dairy products, including several large and expensive looking wheels of cheese.

According to a press release from the group, they performed the stunt in order to “highlight the need to support farmers in transitioning to a sustainable, plant-based food system.”

Watch Video of Milk Pouring Vandalism On Twitter

The self-righteousness and arrogance of those people is there for all to see. They get to play their little "activist games" to show their friends how noble they are, while some poor member of staff who is actually working for a living has to stop and clean it all up on top of their normal job. The Karens and Tarquins who did this should be made to do 100 hours of hard labour for every bottle of milk that they touched.

During the Mark Steyn show on GBNews (Mon - Thurs, 20:00 - 21:00) one of his guests on Thursdays program. It was a spokeswanker for the JustStopOil band of eco-fantasists and I have not encountered someone like that in years. He was utterly brainwashed and the smugness on his face seemed to invite working class lads to punch him and keep punching until his brains ran down his nose. This self - righeous poltroon just kept on spouting self righteous and utterly specious nonsense over the host and would barely let Mark Steyn get a word in. They think that this tactic wins arguments.

In fact it only serves to show how ignorant, ill - informed, poorly educated and ill - mannered these people are.

We knew what was coming when Mark questioned his opening comment and the kid leaned forward and said with a smile: "Are you a climate denier my friend?" The condescension was off the scale but like most of his fellow travellers this clown was unaware of how nonsensical his cliche is, as nobody has ever denied there is a climate. But oblivious to grammar, syntax and common sense he was way reeling off a script probably written by Greta Thunberg, the retarded Swedish trollette who has become an icon to climate change loons. At one point as he was saying: "We have enough oil in storage now for the next 8 years, which will cover the transition time to stop using it altogether. We do not need to drill for any more."

It was a good thing that the kid was in another studio, although Mark Steyn did well to restrain himself from saying what most of the viewers must have been thinking. The thoughts of many of us were summed up by a viewers comment after the break which simply said: "These people need to be sectioned."

UK Government Belatedly Discovers The Uselessness Of Sustainables In Relation To Energy Security
The policy that Boris Johnson's Premiership will be remembered for is nor 'getting Brexit done,' but the government's disastrous pledge to make Great Britain the first developed nation to achieve a 'net zero' national energy system. The neglect and running down of traditional energy systems (coal, gas, nuclear,) along with flushing money down the toilet by investing in intermitternt power sources (wind, solar,) rather than Putin's war in Ukraine is responsible for the current crisis.

We Cannot Simply switch Off Gas And Coal Fuelled Power Plants - Sustainables Are Not Sustainable Enough.

 13 April 2022


As COVID recedes in importance because most people are now over the fear and panic generated by scaremongering propaganda and are realising that their double and triple vaxxed friends are still getting COVID while those resolute enough to have resisted the fake news, the pro - vaccine propaganda and the government led bullying and coercive tactics continue to enjoy rude health, as the Ukraine conflict congeals into a bloody stalemate, climate change has been blasted back to the top of the news.

Since the publications of the latest IPCC Climate Change report early this month, and last week the release of some significant sections of the government's new energy security strategy the parts that have received most media attention are Boris Johnson's revelation the the UK is to have six or seven nuclear power stations under development by 2050, more drilling for oil and gas in the North Sea, and the much-lauded , but in practical terms unachievable goal of engineering a fivefold increase in offshore wind power.

The Johnson government's energy strategy was always going to offer a solution that was a mix of different technologies, and though I am often called anti - wind (this is untrue, I love a fart joke as much as the next person,) anti - science and a climate denier actually I see no problem with generating electricity from wind energy. The problem I have with wind fanatics and the groups currently demanding we stop all uses of all fossil fuels immediately and flatly refuse to  discuss the notion that there might be some drawbacks to making the nation totally dependent on wind power, just as there are drawbacks with fossil fuels generation plants.

The building of new coal or gas fired plants, or of recommissioning coal plants as the government has been forced to do recently may be anathema to the green blob and the government's own 'net zero' lobby but the cult of the Climate Science Green Giant need to accept that we can't just turn off existing and immediately transition to renewables like wind and solar. Nuclear, the only truly reliable, sustainable, CO2 emission free method of generating is also anathema to the green blob, who just don't understand nuclear processes and believe the horror stories about radiation they have seen on TV or read in novels.

The government's bias towards offshore wind is an example of the how government try to shape narratives that keep everybody happy all the time, by courting popularity with unrealistic promises rather than facing reality. The problem nobody talks about with wind is that the turbines cannot generate effectively if the wind is too light or too strong. The range withing which wind turbines operate efficiently is surprisingly narrow, between approximately 12.5 mph minimum and 28 mph maximum. Below that there is not enough energy in the wind to turn the turbine sufficiently quickly, above that and the vanes on the rotor have to be 'feathered' (flattened,) otherwise the machine will be damaged by the stress. But the industry, the government and the clever boys and girls who 'do the science' with their mathematical models of reality do not like to talk about those little problems, they prefer us to think politicians are so powerful and scientists so clever they can make the wind blow at a steady 20 mph for 24 hours a day, 365 days per year.

The main problem caused by the inability of 'sustainables' to sustain electricity production at the levels necessary to support the baseload needed to the the nation running is illustrated in the industry's own figures. Currently the nation has a potential generation capacity of around 75 gigawatts. Baseload consumption is around 30 Gigawatts consistently through summer and winter.

The UK already has 80 gigawatts of offshore wind in the development pipeline. The energy strategy outlines the aspiration to produce up to 50 gigawatts through offshore wind farms. Given the potential 77Gwatts (all sources) we already have, it would seem there was little need for a new energy strategy. but the keyword is 'potential.' Sustainables such as wind and solar are usually generating only 2 or 3% of their potential output over a long period say several weeks and rarely exceed 10% of potential.

The bulk of the population of the UK lives in England. Whilst Boris Johnson has praised solar power for being cheap and effective, it overlooks the obvious point that England has a reputation for being cloudy and wet, thus solar power ia a non starter. However England does have quite a lot of wind, but the problem there is nobody has yet come up either a way to control that wind and make it flow ata a consistent speed. Just as too little or too much wind is a problem for wind farm operators, so gusty days can cause havoc with machines designed to run as a constant speed for long periods.

In the winter of 2021 /22, had fossil fuels, in this case natural gas, been abandoned in line with the wishes of econuts like Extinction Rebellion, thousands of people would have died of hypothermia. A common weather pattern in British winters, due to the presence of a holding high pressure area over the North Atlantic, causes periods of bright, sunny, bitterly cold and almost windless days. And with no cloud cover to hold in radiant heat from the earths surface, night time temperatures drop way below freezing point.

"But ... but ... but," the ecozealots will say, "you said bright sunny days so there is solar power when there is no wind." 

Nice try, but unfortunately another problem with sustainables the mathematical modellers did not think through when "Doing The Science" is that in latitudes greater than 45 degrees north or south, the sun only reaches high enough elevations for solar panels to work for a very short time every day.

These things are among the reasons why in the 21 / 22 winter the UK had to bring mothballed coal fuelled generating plants back online and exteny yet again the life of ageing nuclear plants.

The sad truth is "The Science" behind most of the green thinking and net zero nonsense is only the science of wishful thinking. Far too much of the energy policies of developed nations are based on engineering solutions that worked well so long as they were only equations in notebooks or computer programmes, they were adopted as policy before they had ever been tested in real life. So when we get down to basics, modern societies are still dependent on oil and gas. The only realistic alternative at this point is nuclear, and because the econuts hate nuclear almost as much as they hate oil and gas, the building of new nuclear plants and improvement of technologies was abandoned in the 1990s.

Extinction Rebellion protesters ridiculed for claiming they're like 'freedom fighters in Ukraine'

 

The crusty ecowarriors of Exstinktion Rebellion (XR)were ridiculed in UK media today for a ludicrous claim that they’re like “freedom fighters in Ukraine”.

Speaking on GB News, Broadcaster Danny Kelly said he had read of a leading climate activist from the group comparing the annnoying activists to 'freedom fighters,' though it is not clear whether the comparison to the Ukrainian military fighting the invading Russian army, or to the ethnic Russian rebels in the Rusian speaking Donbas region against whom the Ukrainian government has been waging genocidal war singe 2014. Kelly was referring to a comment made by former GB News guest, Exstibktion Rebellion activist Verel Rodrigues of whom he  said: “This is how detached people like Verel and their views are from the average ordinary man and woman in the street.

“There is a real here and now crisis. How the hell does Verel expect pensioners to heat their homes up when they’re living on the breadline when the price of gas and electricity is shooting through the roof?" Kelly added.

Other broadcasters and bloggers picked up the story as protesters from XR offshoot Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion occupied the famous landmark of Tower Bridge and unfurled a green banner with black writing, which read “End fossil fuels now”. Demonstrators suspended themselves from the bridge using cords, with police shutting it for several hours.

This latest deliberate attempt to disrupt normal life  comes after eight days of disruption at oil facilities by the group and the Just Stop Oil coalition. XR and Just Stop Oil are ludicrously demanding an immediate halt to the use of oil and all 'fossil' fuels, something which is impossible for about a million valid reasons.

In another broadcast comment Danny Kelly said: "If I was a cop in London this morning, I would quite simply ask my superintendent if I could get some garden shears and cut those doomsday idiots off tower bridge.

“They’ve got a soft landing, get a boat to drag them out the Thames and process them that way."

Speaking on GB news earlier, climate activist Verel said: “'I feel like we are in a very dire situation.

“We've tried everything in the normal way to bring about change, to raise awareness.'

"They set goals and they set targets, but what are we seeing from that? We’re seeing none of those targets being met. In fact the government is backtracking on its net-zero targets by investing more into fossil fuels and they’ve now got about 14 new oil and gas projects in their pipelines."

Officers cleared the Tower Bridge protesters by 11.40am, escorting them into police vehicles, and the bridge was reopened at midday.

Green Activists Blockade 10 Key Oil Depots and Terminals In UK as Energy Prices Soar

Just when you thought the skink had gone away another bunch of Exstinktion Rebellion crusties pop up with a new plan to annoy everybody while achieving the exact opposit of what they intended. Loony left green activists today blockaded seven key oil terminals and depots in Britain on the very  day that energy costs are  being hiked by 54 per cent.

Just Stop Oil, one of a number of extremist anti-civilisation groups linked to Marxist political parties in the United Kingdom  blocked Inter Terminals UK, Navigator Terminals Thames, Esso Birmingham, Purfleet Fuels Terminal, Kingsbury Oil Terminal, the BP Depot in Tamworth, and the Buncefield Oil Depot in Hemel Hempstead, according to BBC news reports.

Other news reports revealed that the better-known Exstinktion Rebellion (XR) group of upper middle class crusties, who shut down swathes of the British capital of London several times last year claims it has blockaded a further three sites “of strategic importance to the UK’s energy network”, namely Esso West, near Heathrow Airport, and Esso Hythe and BP Hamble, both near Southampton.

Among the Just Stop Oil group's loonytoons demands is an immediated end to the government’s genocidal policy of expanding UK oil and gas production. The group is calling on all those outraged at the prospect of climate collapse and apparently immune to the cost-of-living crisis and hypothermia to stand with us.” Just Stop Oil declared in a statement that it will continue to disrupt life until its demands are met,  although Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government has not actually ordered the opening new oil and gas fields or given clearance for fracking for shale gas and is not likely to do so, given its leftist climate policies.

“Ordinary people can no longer afford oil and gas, it’s time to just stop oil,” the attention seeking wankers added — failing to explain how abruptly removing oil from the energy mix could do anything other than increase prices massively and cause untold misery to millions of families..

The Hypocrisy and Left-Wing Nature of the Extinction Rebellion

 

by Tom Bromwich, Comment Central, 16 April, 2021

Extinction Rebellion want to save the planet, however how will they do so whilst alienating those who do not share their radical left-wing agenda? They are just petulant Corbynistas, Tom Bromwich argues.

Extinction Rebellion has reared its ugly head over the past fortnight, protesting outside Cambridge's HSBC and Barclays, the Bank of England, and Brussels' financial headquarters in response to increased financial investments in fossil fuels since 2016. Putting Extinction into context, I am reminded of the quote, "one man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter". These irresponsible troublemakers, are also revered as principled civilians passionate about conserving the environment for the future. However, how much of this is true?

Extinction is a protest group advocating for some terrific policies: Stewardship of the planet, institutional environmental change and non-violent protest. It forces us to examine, holistically, what part we have played in climate change, and what we can do to tackle it. 

However, whilst the group may stand on a platform emphasising environmental degradation, animal welfare, anthropocene extinction and conservation, my objection is with the people themselves. I cannot disqualify their reasons for protesting, as I believe if no one did we would be in a worse situation. I wish to highlight the politicised nature of those who participate and the sheer hypocrisy of Extinction's leadership who often operate under the veneer of broad popular support.

One simply has to look and see that, seemingly, the vast majority of protesters are the types of people you would expect to see on this type of demonstration. Aside from the fact many of their mung bean-munching membership are dressed like scarecrows, the vast majority are left-wing. Simply browse the Twitter accounts of those who have been on Extinction rebellion previously. Scroll back and you'll find a treasure chest of Corbynista propaganda (#JC4PM), anarchy symbols or #FBPV, #stopbrexit, and #ACAB social media posts.

Now, I'm not saying they aren't allowed to believe in these things. I don't share their beliefs. However, for such a protest to look representative it needs the inclusion of a broad coalition of many, like me, who want to help save the planet, but don't want to be associated with Extinction's radical leftist leadership and agenda.
