The "Climate" issue was put on the political - UN - agenda in 1972 by Mr. Maurice Strong et al, when he commissioned Barbara Ward and René Dubos to concoct a book entitled "Only One Earth". The book makes interesting reading. It served to set the tone and the agenda for the first United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, held in Stockholm during June of the same year, 1972. Mr. Strong not only commissioned the writing of the book, he was also the secretary-general of the Stockholm Conference (see PDF). The book abounds in phrases that have been repeated over and over again.
In Chapter 13 (an ominous number indeed) entitled "The Shared Biosphere", CO2 and climate change are squarely put on the table. On page 194, Ward and Dubos write: "It is not therefore irrational to wonder whether a massive man-induced increase in the atmosphere's carbon dioxide, coinciding with one of nature's own warmings up, might not change a slight move at the center of the seesaw into a violent shifting of weight and the risk of major and unpredictable global consequences." Words that were written in 1972 and that still freely flow, today, from the pens of those who write the speeches for Tony Blair, Kofi Annan and other world leaders who push the “Climate Agenda”.
In the same Chapter, on page 195, Ward and Dubos hint at their true intentions: "All these concerns with global air pollution lie beyond the effective protection of individual governments." But it is only in the book's last chapter, "Strategies for Survival", that Ward and Dubos show their cards: "…, it is only by forthright cooperation and action at the global level that nations can protect mankind from inadvertent and potentially disastrous modification in the planetary weather system, over which no nation can assert sovereignty.” (The bolding is mine.)
On page 213, Ward and Dubos plant the seed for the IPCC (Geneva) and related organisations such as UN/FCCC (Bonn): "This implies cooperative monitoring, research, and study on an unprecedented scale. It implies an intensive world-wide nertwork for the systematic exchange of knowledge and experience. It implies a quite new readiness to take research wherever it is needed, with the backing of international financing. It means the fullest cooperation in converting knowledge into action - …"
On page 195, Ward and Dubos already explained that "sophisticated simulation" (not just facts and verifiable observations !!!) shall form the tools for the scientists to fill the need for "far more knowledge", as they write: "We need far more knowledge, far more sophisticated simulation of climatic effects on giant computers, far more monitoring on a global basis, far more exact information on what we are actually doing in the atmosphere that the whole of mankind must share." The underlining is mine. Shifting from weather to pollution, Ward and Dubos then continue: "All these concerns with global air pollution lie beyond the effective protection of individual governments."
And then, Ward and Dubos lay it out in no uncertain terms: "Where pretentions to national sovereignty have no relevance to perceived problems, nations have no choice but to follow the course of common policy and coordinated action. In three vital, related areas this is now the undeniable case - the global atmosphere, the global oceans, and the global weather system. All require the adoption of a planetary approach by the leaders of nations, no matter how parochial their point of view toward matters that lie within the national jurisdiction …. It is no small undertaking, but quite possibly the very minimum required in defense of the future of the human race."
Thirty-four years after the publication of "Only One Earth", we witness what the "sophisticated simulation" has produced. Man-made climate forecasts pouring from the computer simulations announced by Ward and Dubos, and mainstream media predicting havoc and catastrophe. Those who challenge the outcomes of IPCC's "sophisticated simulation" models are bluntly positioned as "terrorists" who need to be silenced. Why? Not because they threaten the survival of mankind, but because they interfere with the greater plan, i.e. with the plan to do away with the principle of the sovereignty of individual nations.
Ending their book, Ward and Dubos refer to this greater plan, to this "vision of unity", as "a hard and inescapable scientific fact". The authors' ideal world is one where "..., the practices and institutions with which we are familiar inside our domestic societies would become suitably modifed, the basis of planetary order." The underlining is mine. Why this vision is a "scientific fact" is left undiscussed.
Planetary order, that's the true goal the Climate Clergy is really serving.
