“Look, mother nature is making it undeniable that climate change has kicked in. The consequences are going to be enormous.”

This writer spent about two thirds of his life concerned about the Earth in crisis due to global warning.
Scientists on television, some of which I looked up to as role models were telling me that carbon dioxide was a greenhouse gas. In small amounts it was responsible for keeping the Earth at a temperature stable enough to support life as we know it. But after the Industrial Revolution, we were delivering more of these microscopic shields keeping infra-red energy from escaping back into space. [2]
But more of this compound was dumped into the atmosphere than could be absorbed by oceans and plant life via photo-synthesis. With more CO2 shielding us, the planet would normally heat up, and as it heated up, life would be effected…for the worst. [3]
Today, science, as explained by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and the huge volume of studies in the refereed journal literature has indicated that if humanity is to sustain itself and the multiple life forms with whom we share this planet, then we must return our civilization back to lower levels. Significant reductions of CO2 to 45 percent levels below 2010 levels are in order if we are going to reduce hurricanes, floods, heat waves, forest fires and other disastrous events that have been plaguing humanity in recent years. [4]
This writer upheld that belief for decades. But after the science surrounding the COVID-19 “pandemic” proved to be faulty, I began to ask questions rather than blindly genuflecting to the legacy of “science.” I discovered a lot of what they were saying on reflection didn’t make sense.
But another staggering problem is the extent to which we ignore other causes, most notably, Environmental Modification techniques (ENMOD) which allows humans to affect the weather. The U.S. military experimented with these efforts since the late 1940s! And there was an international convention ratified in 1977 regulating the use of ENMOD techniques which also applied to hurricanes. [5]
Such phenomena are not mentioned at all in international climate gatherings, including the one taking place this week in Baku, Azerbaijan.
And what of the solutions being brought forward? Carbon markets? The closing down of farmers in the Netherlands to limit other greenhouse gases like ammonia and nitric oxide? Green New Deals?
Bill Gates is grabbing land like crazy! Characters like Trump-lover Elon Musk are supporting the new carbon market system, and getting in on the new Lithium “gold rush.” Once we get past the usual excuses of drastic means to prevent climate change from killing us all, you begin to sniff the world-wide equivalent of another major powers scam.
On this week’s episode of the Global Research News Hour, we will endeavour to explore the issue broadly, as we get a look behind the curtain concealing the true players behind the COP29’s much ado about nothing.
In our first half hour, after a discussion about the use of ENMOD in steering hurricane Helene toward the lithium-rich community of King Mountain in North Carolina, we discuss more of the flaws in modern “anti-carbon” scientific studies with Writer-blogger Dmitry Orlov. And in our second half hour, Matthew Ehret targets the role of Mark Carney, the economist and former head of both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England in climate financing. He discusses a bit of who he works for and his intentions to replace Justin Trudeau as prime minister of Canada.
Dmitry Orlov emigrated from Russia where he was born to the United States in the mid-1970s. He has degrees in Computer Engineering and Linguistics and has worked in the fields of high energy physics, internet commerce, advertising and network security. He has now moved back to Russia. He is the author of numerous articles. His books include: Shrinking the Technosphere: Getting a Grip on the Technologies that Limit our Autonomy, Self-sufficiency and Freedom (2016), The Five Stages of Collapse: Survivors’ Toolkit. (2013) as well as Reinventing Collapse: The Soviet Experience and American Prospects (2011). Dmitry Orlov blogs at https://boosty.to/cluborlov.
Matthew Ehret is the Editor-in-Chief of the Canadian Patriot Review , and Senior Fellow at the American University in Moscow. He is author of the‘Untold History of Canada’ book series and Clash of the Two Americas. In 2019 he co-founded the Montreal-based Rising Tide Foundation .
