Global Research

Live Earth’s half empty stadiums and lackluster TV viewing figures were preceded by another embarrassment after one of the propaganda bandwagon’s kingpins and a top global warming advocate responded to a question about solar-system wide climate change by claiming that Jupiter, Mars and Saturn were closer to the sun than Earth.

David Mayer de Rothschild is the youngest child (born 1978) of Sir Evelyn de Rothschild, of the British wing of the Rothschild banking family.

Rothschild’s recent book, 77 Essential Skills to Stop Climate Changes, calls for ordinary people to limit outward behavior and even work at home and was used as part of the PR blitz to accompany the Live Earth project.

Appearing on The Alex Jones Show this past Friday, Rothschild reacted to a point about massive climate change at every point of the solar system and its relation to natural sun cycles by claiming Mars, Saturn and Jupiter were closer to the sun than Earth!

Here’s a brief transcript of the exchange.

ALEX JONES: “The polar icecaps of Mars are receding at several miles a year, much faster than ours and that the moons of Saturn and Jupiter are melting, in fact several of their moons were ice and are now liquid seas – how are SUV’s causing that David Rothschild?

ROTHSCHILD: “Because those planets are closer to the sun, my friend.”

ALEX JONES: “No, Jupiter and Saturn are not closer to the sun and neither is Mars.”

Rothschild then quickly changes the subject and when the point is raised again later in the show, he makes no effort to correct himself.

Last time we checked, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were all orbiting the sun at a greater distance than Earth.

Rothschild’s hilarious screw-up is yet another example as to why the general public remain unconvinced by the error-strewn apocalyptic admonitions of the climate cult.

A Mori poll released last week found that a majority of the UK population were still skeptical about man-made global warming and believed the threats were being exaggerated for political purposes and to make money.

Throughout the radio appearance, Rothschild parrots empty sound bite platitudes about there only being “one earth,” while failing to address recent scientific analysis which reveals that the oldest plant DNA ever discovered showed that “the planet was far warmer hundreds of thousands of years ago than is generally believed,” again underscoring the fact that climate change is a routine and natural phenomenon that has occurred throughout earth’s history.

Although Rothschild stresses the existence of just one earth on numerous occasions, it appears as though he thinks there is another one earth orbiting the sun – at a greater distance than Saturn or Jupiter!

He also glibly repeats the charge that the radio station he was appearing on, the Genesis Communications Network, was bankrolled by the oil industry and that was the reason for challenging the monopoly on truth that the man-made global warming crowd attribute themselves.

Deliciously ironic therefore it is that big oil men like the chairman of British Petroleum Peter Sutherland are fanning the flames of global warming hysteria in order to create artificial scarcity and drive up prices, while also getting fat off the peak oil scam, another charade manufactured by the oil companies and gleefully embraced by phony environmentalists.

General Lord Guthrie, director of N.M. Rothschild & Sons, also recently called for the elite to, “Address the global climate crisis with a single voice, and impose rules that apply worldwide,” (global government).

In addition, it was the Rothschild family itself that helped fund the Rockefellers to create the first giant trusts and oil monopolies in the late 19th century.

Every time a public figure or scientist dares to question the global warming orthodoxy, they are savaged as being in bed with oil companies and yet it is the oil company chieftains that are pushing climate change harder than anyone.

Madonna, owner of 6 evil gas-guzzling cars and producer of 440 tonnes of CO2 during her Confessions tour, performs at Live Earth in London.

Rothschild’s red-faced gaffe was allied with an embarrassingly lukewarm response to this weekend’s Live Earth propaganda extravaganza, at which we saw hypocritical pop stars perform to half-empty stadiums around the world.

The television audience also fell way below expectations and the event was branded a “foul-mouthed flop” by newspapers. Just hundreds turned up to one of the events held in Washington at which Al Gore appeared.

“Organisers of the global music concert – punctuated by swearing from presenters and performers – had predicted massive viewing figures,” reports the Daily Mail.

“But BBC’s live afternoon television coverage attracted an average British audience of just 900,000. And the peak audience, which came when Madonna sang at Wembley, was a dismal 4.5million. Three times as many viewers saw the Princess Diana tribute on the same channel six days before.”

“Two years ago, Live 8 drew a peak television audience of 9.6million while Live Aid notched 10million in 1985.”

As more jet-flying celebrity hypocrites lecture us on changing our lifestyle and as more “experts” fail to get even the most basic facts correct, expect more acolytes to desert the cause and for global warming to be consigned to the dustbin of scientific theory, just as the “global cooling” scare of the 70’s quickly evaporated under widespread ridicule.
