Climate Geoengineering Scam: We Who Said Follow The Money Can Now Say &Quot;we Told You So”

Those of us who dismissed the pusillanimous wailing and gnashing of teeth coming from the warmageddonist cult by saying “Follow The Money” can now wallow in schadenfreude as new revelations from groups on the political right and left reveal the whole climate change scare was a gigantic scam aimed at milking dry us poor taxpayers to enrich the already super wealthy. A coalition representing the most powerful academic, military, scientific and corporate interests has set its sights on making vast potential profits from some idiotic and frankly dangerous schemes to control nature (and no doubt charge us for the privilege of using it)

British scientists have pulled back from geoengineering projects, realising that trying to tinker with nature can have disastrous unforeseen consequences but the US is forging ahead with plans to re-engineering the planet’s ecosphere.. UK scientists last week “postponed” one of the world’s first attempts to physically manipulate the upper atmosphere to cool the planet. Okay, so the Stratospheric Particle Injection for Climate Engineering project wasn’t actually going to spray thousands of tonnes of reflective particles into the air to replicate a volcano right now, but the plan to send a balloon with a hose attached 1km into the sky above the south eastern county of Norfolk was the first step towards that ultimate loonytoons techno-fix for climate change.

The reason the British scientists gave for pulling back was that more time was needed for consultation. In retrospect, it seems bizarre that they had only talked to a few members of the public. It was only when 60 global groupswrote to the UK government and the research groups behind the project requesting cancellation that they paid any attention to critics. These crazy science heads you see were planning to eventually put sulphur compounds in the stratosphere. Yeah, sulphur, you know the stuff that we spend millions on extracting from power station emissions so it doesn’t get into the atmosphere. Put it up there, it makes acid rain which did so much damage to forests in the 1970s and 80s. The damage by putting sulphur in the atmosphere is what caused most governments in industrial nations to pass laws requiring coal and oil power stations to filter the sulphur out of emissions before they are released into the atmosphere. And the insanity of putting the same stuff into the atmosphere as we spend so much effort and money on taking out has dawned on the British scientists. To be fair it has dawned on a lot of US scientists too, you will have seen their names traduced on Warmageddonist blogs. The Goldman Sachs puppet U.S. President, Barack Obama remains loyal to his pledge to trash the environment for the benefit of his corporate paymasters implement green energy policies so we must hope the 2012 Presidential election returns a President who understands the issues.
