"Climate change"
Climate change, formerly known as global warming, is the idea that the earth's climate is undergoing a period of rapid change. The majority[citation needed] of the world's scientists agree that this is happening, and that it is anthropogenic (i.e. caused by humans). The administration of Donald Trump has cast doubt on this, as do the fossil fuel lobby. Most of the documents at the foot of this article dispute the reality of climate change as presented by corporate media.
On June 3 2020, WEF chairman Klaus Schwab released a video announcing the annual theme for 2021, The Great Reset: [1]
There are many reasons to pursue a Great Reset, but the most urgent is COVID-19 (...) climate change could be the next global disaster with even more dramatic consequences for humankind.

Amidst the COVID-19/Lockdown the WEF announced on its website a series of articles suggesting that the "pandemic" serves as preparation for an even greater disaster, namely climate change. [2][3]
Recent Weather Records
The US’s largest reservoir was reported in 2016 as having "the lowest level since it was filled in the 1930s".[4]
Temperature
![](/w/images/thumb/4/46/Hemispheric_temperature.jpg/480px-Hemispheric_temperature.jpg)
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration declared March 2016 was the warmest March since records began in 1880.[5]
Extreme weather events
The phrase 'climate change' is used in preference to 'global warming' since it is predicted[By whom?] to amplify instability in the world's climate, resulting in more extreme events of all kinds, such as wind, temperature, atmospheric pressure, droughts, flash floods etc.
Melting polar ice caps
20 Year IMBIE Study
A study from 2012[6] that was analyzing satellite data starting from 1992 came to conclude that the polar ice sheets are melting at an increased pace. According to one of the authors of the study, Andrew Shepherd: "It's the first time all the people who have estimated changes in the size of the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets using satellites over the past 20 years have got together to produce a single result,".[7] The study found that ice melting from Antarctica and Greenland has contributed 20% to the overall sea level rising in that same period. Two thirds are coming from Greenland even while it has only one tenth of the size of Antarctica, probably due to its position closer to the equator and warmer air.[8] The rest of the sea level rising is attributed to thermal expansion of a warming ocean, melting of mountain glaciers, small Arctic ice caps and groundwater mining. The Antarctic is distinguished between east and west. Since the wests glaciers are at sea level, the warming of the sea there is accelerating the melting. The east is mostly above sea level and thanks to appropriate temperatures there is snowfall and the ice sheet actually growing.
25 Year IMBIE Study
The 2018 update of the study[9] found the conclusion from five years before confirmed and observed a threefold increase in ice loss since 2012.[10] It is generally acknowledged that the ice loss in Antarctica is more severe in areas where there is direct contact with the ocean.[11] In 2017 it was reported that in the west of Antarctica NASA discovered a 'mantle plume' which could be a cause of the ice melting in the region today.[12] However, the observation is not a point where definitive conclusions can be drawn.[13]
Magnetic poles
The earth's magnetic poles are undergoing a period of rapid shift. The reasons for this, and its potential consequences remain unclear. Some commentators have suggested that this may have disasterous consequences[14], but NASA wrote in 2012 that "this causes no dramatic effects, and will not lead to problems in 2012."
Climate change sceptics
Various people are doubtful about the official narrative of climate change, including Denis Rancourt.

Climate gate
On 2009 Wikileaks published <1000 emails from the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) scientists. Several emails contained joking remarks about how they massaged statistics.[citation needed] The dubious funding of IPCC was also discussed in the climate gate leak.
Medieval Climate Optimum
The Medieval Climate Optimum was an unusually warm period in history lasting from about the 10th century to about the 14th century. During this time wine grapes were grown in Europe up to 300 miles north of their present northerly growing limit.
- "IPCC documents up to at least 1995 had faithfully depicted the existence of both the Medieval Warm Period and Little Ice Age ... The Medieval Warm Period and subsequent Little Ice Age - which followed hard on the heels of the Roman Warm Period and Dark Ages Cold Period (McDermott et al., 2001) - were long considered to be classic examples of the warm and cold phases of a millennial-scale climate oscillation that has reverberated seemingly endlessly throughout glacial and interglacial periods alike (Oppo et al., 1998; McManus et al., 1999), as well as across the early Pleistocene (Raymo et al., 1998)."

"Overpopulation" | “Overpopulation and the overreliance on irrigation was a major factor in making the Maya vulnerable to failure:
the trigger event of their collapse appears to have been a long drought beginning about 840 A.D. (communication of V. Scarborough, an archaelogist (sic!) from the University of Cincinnati [90]). Among many factors, such as war and plagues, that contributed to many of the collapses of ancient societies, there seem to be two main causes: too many people and too little fresh water. As a consequence, the civilization became vulnerable to environmental stress, for instance, a prolonged drought or a change in climate [90]. The societies themselves appear to have contributed to their own demise by encouraging growth of their population to levels that carried the seeds of their own decline through overexploitation of the land (communication of C. Scarre, an archaelogist (sic!) from the Cambridge University in England [90]). Similarly, the Akkadian empire in Mesopotamia, the Old Kingdom of Egypt, the Indus Valley civilization in India, and early societies in Palestine, Greece, and Crete all collapsed in a catastrophic drought and cooling of the atmosphere between 2300 and 2200 B.C.” | Didier Sornette | 2003 |
Bilderberg/1989 | “The observed increase in global mean temperature has been neither monotonic with time nor uniform over the globe as has been the increase of greenhouse gases. This situation calls into question the validity of isolating the greenhouse effect as the only cause of the recent temperature increase. A second uncertainty stems from the knowledge that the Earth has gone through major perturbations in temperature and climate in the past and continues to go through seasonal and cyclical changes (Figures 8, 9). How much if any of the recent changes then are just part of a long term trend is not known.” | 1989 | |
George Carlin | “The planet is fine. The people are fucked. Because everyone is trying to save the planet. The planet doesn’t need that. The planet will take care of itself. People are selfish. And that's what they're doing is trying to save the planet for themselves to have a nicer place to live. They don't care about the planet in theory. They just care about having a comfortable place. And these people with the fires and the floods and everything, they overbuild, they put nature to the test and they get what's coming to them. That's what I say. That's what's happening, and I can't wait for the sea levels to rise. I can't wait for some of these cities to disappear. There are places that are going to go away. The map is going to change and that's because — people think nature is outside of them. They don't take into them the idea that we are part of it. They say, "oh, we're going for a nature walk. We're going to the country because we like nature." Nature is in here. [points to chest] And if you're in tune with it, like the Indians, the Hopis, especially, the balance of life, the balance, the harmony of nature, if you understand that, you don't overbuild. You don’t do all this moron stuff.” | George Carlin | |
George Carlin | “We're so self-important. So self-important. Everybody's going to save something now. "Save the trees, save the bees, save the whales, save those snails." And the greatest arrogance of all: "save the planet." What? Are these fucking people kidding me? Save the planet, we don't even know how to take care of ourselves yet! We don't care for one another, we're gonna save the fucking planet? I'm getting tired of that shit. I'm tired of fucking Earth Day. I'm tired of these self-righteous environmentalists, these white, bourgeois liberals who think the only thing wrong with this country is that there aren't enough bicycle paths. People trying to make the world safe for their Volvos. Besides, environmentalists don't give a shit about the planet. Not in the abstract, they don't. You know what they're interested in? A clean place to live. Their own habitat. They're worried that someday in the future they might be personally inconvenienced. Narrow, unenlightened self-interest doesn't impress me. The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drift, solar flares, sunspots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal of the poles … hundreds of thousands of years of bombardment by comets and asteroids and meteors, worldwide floods, tidal waves, worldwide fires, erosion, cosmic rays, recurring ice ages … And we think some plastic bags and some aluminum cans are going to make a difference? The planet isn't going anywhere. WE are!” | George Carlin | |
Climate change/Preparation | “Similarly, the Akkadian empire in Mesopotamia, the Old Kingdom of Egypt, the Indus Valley civilization in India, and early societies in Palestine, Greece, and Crete all collapsed in a catastrophic drought and cooling of the atmosphere between 2300 and 2200 B.C.” | Didier Sornette | 2003 |
Club of Rome | “In searching for a common enemy against whom we can unite, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like, would fit the bill. In their totality and their interactions these phenomena do constitute a common threat which must be confronted by everyone together. But in designating these dangers as the enemy, we fall into the trap, which we have already warned readers about, namely mistaking symptoms for causes. All these dangers are caused by human intervention in natural processes, and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy then is humanity itself.” | Alexander King Club of Rome Bertrand Schneider | 1993 |
David Foreman | “An Ice Age is coming and I welcome it as much-needed changing. I see no solution to our ruination of earth except for a drastic reduction of the human population.” | David Foreman | |
Andrei Fursov | “Attali analyzes history and present-day events in the light of the change of Merchant orders. The contemporary one — the ninth — is going through an extremely acute crisis, which will end with the demise of Pax Americana. Then a furcation will occur. In Attali’s view, either world government will be established at once or it will emerge as a result of a three-move process of the 2020-2060s: hyperempire (market without democracy), hyperconflict and hyperdemocracy with a supranational government at its head. The analysis of Attali’s works shows that he expresses the interests of the top of the world capitalist class that adheres to ultra-globalist positions and works for the subversion of the sovereignty of nation-states. The terminology used by Attali, particularly “sustainable development” / “sustainable growth” (in reality, it is the combination of deindustrialization, depopulation and ecologism), indicates his neo-Malthusian and neo-colonialist preferences. “Sustainable development” is a metaphor of the new world order (à la Orwell’s Newspeak), which is nothing more than control over resources (including information ones) and human behaviour (psychosphere). The main thing in this order is the preservation of power, property and privileges of the world’s elite whose ideological representative Attali is.” | Andrei Fursov | 2014 |
Global Commission for Post-Pandemic Policy | “The development in less than a year of several highly effective vaccines against COVID-19 was hailed as a "miracle" by some. The reality is more mundane. It was a real-world example of what can be achieved when politicians, policymakers, the private sector and scientists focus on mobilising the funds, resources and talents necessary to tackle a specific, highly motivating problem. Why then, should the human race not be trying to replicate the vaccine breakthrough to tackle the even greater threat of climate change?” | Luke Lythgoe | 9 July 2021 |
IPCC | “The globe is warming because of increasing greenhouse gas emissions No evidence is presented to justify this conclusion. There are “projections” of computer models but these are not predictions, they are merely the results of assumptions made in the model. No “projected” result has ever been successfully related to an actual change in the climate.” | Vincent Richard Gray | |
International Maritime Organization | “Despite being responsible for close to 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions, the shipping sector remains outside of the UN Paris Agreement on climate. It has achieved this through corporate capture of the International Maritime Organization” | ||
Boris Johnson | “How the hell can we witter on about tackling global warming, and reducing consumption, when we are continuing to add so relentlessly to the number of consumers? The answer is politics, and political cowardice.” | Boris Johnson | 25 October 2007 |
Charles Mountbatten-Windsor | “We've so degraded natural systems, eco-systems, biodiversity, that it's becoming increasingly impossible for nature to sustain us...At the moment it's all take, take. Now we've reached the situation where we really need four planets like earth to survive or provide enough for everybody....So what do we do? Without doubt we must now put ourselves on a war-like footing, approaching our action from the perspective of a military-style campaign. That way, working together we can combat this most grave and urgent challenge. If we have the resolve to shift our trajectory we must start now, by bringing forward our net zero target.” | Charles Mountbatten-Windsor | 2020 |
Klaus Schwab | “[...] the pandemic represents a rare but narrow window of opportunity to reflect, reimagine, and reset our world to create a healthier, more equitable, and more prosperous future.” | Klaus Schwab | 3 June 2020 |
Dale Vince | “Anyone who says the climate crisis is not happening or it's not man-made, honestly, I think they're a dangerous fool, because it's like denying the Holocaust happened” | Dale Vince | 29 June 2023 |
