According
to a National Geographic article published in March 2011, “Age of Man,” the
word “anthropocene” was conceived ten
years ago by the Dutch chemist Paul Crutzen who said, “we are no longer in the
Holocene, we are in the Anthropocene.” The Holocene was the period between the
last ice age, 11,500 years ago, and present time. Paul Crutzen received a Nobel
Prize for the discovery of ozone-depleting compounds. (Elizabeth Kolbert)
Antonio
Stoppani suggested “anthropozoic” term in 1870 but was derided as unscientific.
There was no global warming crowd then with a population control agenda to give
it credence. “Anthropocene” was
welcome because it fit in with the Malthusian style theory of population growth
overwhelming the planet and eventually causing its demise. According to E. O.
Wilson, the seven billion people have increased the biomass “a hundred times
larger than any other large animal species that has ever walked the Earth.”

The
April 1, 2012 issue of the journal “Earth and Planetary Science” will publish a
study by a team from Syracuse University in New York which found that the “Medieval
Warm Period’ of approximately 500 to 1,000 years ago extended to Antarctica.

The
lead geochemist Zunli Lu found reliable evidence to study past temperature
changes and climate conditions in a rare mineral, “ikaite.” “Ikaite is an icy
version of limestone, said Lu. Ikaite is stable in cold conditions and melts at
room temperature.”
“Little
Ice Age” (300 to 500 years ago) and “Medieval Warm Period” were climate events
documented in Northern Europe via crystals found in earth’s layers. Lu and his
team were able to ascertain that these two events reached Antarctica because
they found and studied heavy oxygen isotopes in the ikaite crystals. “The water
that holds the crystal structure together – called hydration water – traps information
about temperatures present when the crystals formed.” (Ted Thornhill)
The
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), established by the United
Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), is still arguing that the “Medieval Warm
Period” was limited to Europe.
Common
Dreams.org, with its motto “Building Progressive Community,” published an
article on March 27, 2012, “On the Brink: Planet Near Irreversible Point of
Global Warming.” It does not matter that global warming alarmists and
scientists have been debunked. They have hidden or erased the scientific data
that proved them wrong. They are marching on with their agenda. The “sky is
falling” scientists at the “Planet under Pressure” conference in London said, “we
may have already passed the tipping points on global warming.”
Martin
Rees of the Royal Society said, “this century is the first when one species –
ours – has the planet’s future in its hands.” Apparently, humans are so omnipotent
now that we have God-like powers.
Reuter's
Agency reports that “global warming is close to becoming irreversible,” world
temperatures are going to rise 6 degrees by 2100. It is shocking that they
predict with such accuracy and clarity what will happen 100 years from now when
they cannot even predict weather accurately for tomorrow.
“Man’s
catastrophic damage to the environment and disparities between rich and poor
head the daunting challenges facing the Rio +20 Summit in June, experts say.
The summit must sweep away a system that lets reckless growth destroy the
planet’s health yet fails to help billions in need.” (Agency France Presse)
Therein
lies the true intent of the global warming scam and the United Nations Agenda
21 – fleecing developed nations, spreading the wealth to developing nations,
population control, energy control, economic control, education control, confiscation
of private property, control of the seas, commerce, military, and de-growing
the biggest “offender,” the United States, to a primitive lifestyle.
The
educational propaganda is getting more intense. Planet under Pressure has
commissioned a 3-minute film “from the start of the industrial revolution to
the Rio +20 Summit,” the world’s first educational web portal on the Anthropocene. The film exaggerates the
growth of humanity in the last 250 years into such a global force “on an
equivalent scale to major geological processes.”
This
film is deranged, yet it will become part of our children’s education in the
classroom. Parents will have no idea that the movie will be shown to their
children, just like the video, “The Story of Things,” which distorts capitalism
and promotes socialism.
The
facts that the planet has corrected itself and human/non-human intervention or
occupation had no significant bearing, are ignored in the “logic” of
environmentalists. Older and moneyed “greens” have brainwashed our children
into Save the Planet activism through intense and expensive propaganda - evil
humans are destroying Earth through careless existence and breathing. The
planet has always been here and it will be here long after we are gone. We do
not need to return to primitive lifestyles in order to please “greenies” and
their tyrannical agendas.
Every
school this week has encouraged students to turn off their lights for one hour
in honor of Earth Day, an event that is insignificant in terms of energy saved
or “carbon foot print reduction,” as recognized by environmentalists
themselves. It is a symbolic attempt to brainwash students into believing that
we are destroying the planet deliberately by using energy and by our mere existence.
Liberals
do not seem to care that, if there is no coal, there is little electricity and
no electric cars. If there is no oil, there is no energy, gasoline, cars, heat,
air conditioning, travel, mobility, and other modern conveniences.
Secretary
of Energy Chu wants us to pay $50 for a bulb. Edison’s incandescent and
inexpensive bulb that has served humanity well for so long is passé. How many
bulbs does the average household have, times $50? Can we afford such expensive
bulbs or the mercury-emitting CFL variety, which also poison the immediate environment
with mercury when broken? My answer is a resounding no. We must stand up to United
Nations and to homegrown environmentalists’ quest to de-grow America, control
our lives, and impose their “vision” of the world on the majority.
