Great Reset By Marc Morano – Chapter 12 Excerpt: ‘COVID Lockdowns Morph to Climate Lockdowns’

You are being conned: Data, studies & UN IPCC all reveal Canadian fires not due to ‘climate change’ – ‘There has been a significant & continuing decline in the number of fires’

Even the UN IPCC Admits Climate Change Doesn’t Increase Forest FiresRoger Pielke JR, a former chairman of the American Meteorological Society Committee on Weather Forecasting, points out that even the alarmist Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change (IPCC) “has not detected or attributed fire occurrence or area burned to human-caused climate change.”


Canadian Wildfires – CLIMATE LOCKDOWNS BEGIN! Masks, stay-at-home orders, canceled schools, businesses & sporting events Economist Martin Armstrong: "The governments are testing an ECONOMIC LOCKDOWN."

Canadian National Fire Database data disputes climate link to fires: ‘There has been a significant & continuing decline in the number of fires & no discernible trend in the area burned’
According to Canada’s Department of Natural Resources, fires have been occurring for thousands of years in the boreal forests of eastern Canada - not exactly unprecedented. In addition, they call fire a primary change agent that is as crucial to forest renewal as the sun and rain -perhaps not a calamity either.

It appears that 2023 is on pace to be a year with unusually high numbers of fires. Yet the previous year was one of historically low numbers. The Canadian National Fire Database (2023) provides facts to dispute the idea of climate change-driven increases in fires in Canadian fires. According the CNFD, there has been a significant and continuing decline in the number of fires and no discernible trend in the area burned.

USA Today: Smoke ‘keeping temperatures cooler than average – Temps ‘running 5-8 degrees cooler than forecast due to smoke in the atmosphere’

Media Wrong Again & Quebec wildfires: ‘Media has been quick’ to link Canada fires to man-made climate changeCanadian National Fire Database data disputes climate link to fires: ‘There has been a significant & continuing decline in the number of fires & no discernible trend in the area burned’
USA Today: As Canada burns, smoke makes US air unhealthy and skies eerie. Is climate change to blame? - "Climate change is real and having a huge impact on Canadians right now with forest fires burning across the country," tweeted Catherine McKenna, Canada's former climate minister. ...
USA Today: Smoke 'keeping temperatures cooler than average - Temps 'running 5-8 degrees cooler than forecast due to smoke in the atmosphere': Due to an area of low pressure that's hovering offshore, along with an area of high pressure over Canada, a northerly flow of air was funneling the smoke south into the U.S. from Canada, AccuWeather said. This was keeping temperatures cooler than average, as the smoke filters out the blazing June sunshine.For example, the weather service in Washington, D.C., said in an online forecast discussion Tuesday that "temperatures this morning have been running 5-8 degrees cooler than forecast due to the smoke in the atmosphere."

Great Food Reset: Irish Gov’t Seeks to Sacrifice 200,000 Cows To Reach Net Zero Climate Goals – Kerry targets U.S. farmers Next!
The plans have been long in the making, with the proposals first outlined back in 2021. A report at the time suggested that up to 1.3 million cattle would need to be culled in order to reduce greenhouse gases in the Irish agriculture sector to sustainable levels. ... A consortium named the Food Vision Dairy Group was created to examine ways for Irish farmers in the dairy sector to meet climate targets, and a proposal of a €5,000 compensatory payment per cow was considered.

Say What?! The Hill: ‘Climate paradox’ – New study finds emissions cuts ‘will make the earth much hotter in the short term’


The Hill: Climate paradox: Emission cuts could ‘unmask’ deadly face of climate change, scientists warn - One the one hand, cutting fossil fuel pollution is necessary for avoiding severe destruction over the long term. But such cuts will make the earth much hotter in the short term. ...
These cuts remain one of the only examples of successful cuts to climate-warming pollution, but the new study found that those pandemic-era cuts in air pollution led to a rise in global temperatures. The findings, published on Wednesday in the journal NPJ Climate and Atmospheric Science, unveil a stark paradox at the heart of human-caused climate change.

Study: Lower emissions during the COVID lockdowns caused climate warming effect – ‘Short-lived cooling particles in the air was greatly reduced’ -

Study: Lower emissions during the COVID lockdowns caused climate warming effect – ‘Short-lived cooling particles in the air was greatly reduced’


Via Engineering & Technology: While reduced air pollution emissions leads to better air quality, they also enable stronger climate warming effects, scientists in Sweden have said. ... It was discovered that while the concentrations of polluting short-lived air particles decreased significantly, the concentrations of longer-lived greenhouse gases were barely affected in the air mass over South Asia. The cooling effect of the aerosols comes from the fact that they reflect incoming solar radiation back into space. With a lower aerosol content, there is less cooling, and thus less ‘masking’ of the warming effect of the significantly longer-lived climate gases. ...
The results show that a complete phasing out of fossil-fuel combustion in favour of renewable energy sources with zero emissions could result in rapid ‘unmasking’ of aerosols, while greenhouse gases linger. ... “During a couple of decades, emission reductions risk leading to net climate warming due to the ‘masking’ effect of air particles, before the temperature reduction from reduced greenhouse gas emissions takes over.

Claim: The Covid Pandemic Caused Global Warming

John Kerry To Peasants: Die, To Save The Planet – ‘The world’s population must slash meat consumption’ – Statistician pushes back: ‘Net Zero is the lunatic idea’Statistician Dr. WILLIAM M BRIGGS: Kerry claims “the world’s population must slash meat consumption.” ... Stopping people from farming will indeed stop their “emissions”. If by “emissions” he means breathing. Because once farmers stop farming, the food stops. And once the food stops, breathing stops. And once breathing stops, emissions stop. And once emissions stop, the nirvana of “net zero” will have been reached. ...
The government will shut down little- and mid-guy farms, while allowing mega-corporation donors—I mean farm owners—to keep running. Meaning Kerry, and Gates, are calling for a New & Improved! scientific method of collectivisation. Only instead of direct government ownership of farms, oligarchs will own them. The price they pay will be having Experts produce the regulations that govern them. Could it be a coincidence Gates has been buying up farmland?

Watch: Morano on Rebel TV on banning flights, appliances, limiting food: ‘Since Jan. 2023, the acceleration of this agenda for us — the unwashed masses — has been nothing I’ve ever seen’

The Ezra Levant Show - Rebel TV - Broadcast June 5, 2023


Morano: "It's not just the culling of cows, we're seeing; it is going after high-yield agriculture. We're seeing it go after particularly the climate compliance regulations going after the small-time farmers. But we just saw France beginning their climate lockdowns last week, banning short-haul flights. At the same time, we're seeing Germany talking about massive meat restrictions down to one sausage a month. Since January, the acceleration of this agenda for us -- the unwashed masses -- has been nothing I've ever seen. It's almost as if they think their time is limited, and they're rushing all of this through almost all of it without any vote of democracy.
They're going after the collapse of energy, food transportation, and, yes, free speech as well. If you dare to complain, it's immediate misinformation. But the animal agenda goes back to the Net Zero commitments. They're going after animal agriculture! This has been on the table for decades. ... "Bill Gates stated goal, in being America's single largest farmland owner, is to make us all eat what he calls synthetic meat," said Morano.

Watch: Morano on OAN TV on France flight bans: ‘This is what a climate lockdown looks like. This is what the Great Reset looks like’ One America News - In Focus w/ Alison Steinberg - Broadcast June 2, 2023


Morano: "The thing about France is, you can't take short flights under two and a half hours. Well, originally, the French government wanted to do four hours and under flight bans. So we should be thankful to our betters that they reduced it to 2 1/2 hours (Morano bows in deference) because otherwise, it'd be four hours. Greenpeace wants an EU-wide flight ban on six-hour and under flights. And this is already spreading to Spain and Austria and Germany -- they're already talking about similar types of flight bans."

Watch: Morano on Newsmax TV banning airline flights: ‘The fix is in’ – ‘They are abolishing the middle class, they are treating us like the unwashed masses’


Newsmax TV - Frontline w/ Carl Higbie - Broadcast June 1, 2023
Morano: "This is almost like religious fanaticism. They're doing it in order to achieve this utopian vision. And it's like they're imposing a religion, an austerity upon the rest of us.

They're collapsing our energy, our food, our transportation, our free speech, and this is all through corporate government collusion, mostly without an ounce of democracy, just like COVID -- when they closed schools and churches and work and issued stay-at-home orders and canceled weddings, funerals, and medical procedures. All of that was done without a single vote. It was done because the virus demanded it. Well, now they change the word 'virus' to the 'climate' demands it."

Watch: Morano on Fox News on climate flight bans: ‘You will go nowhere & be happy’ – ‘Flying is going to be a venue only for the rich’ & they are ‘intentionally creating car shortages’ – ’15-minute cities’ like E. Germany


Fox News Channel - Fox News Tonight - w/ Joey Jones - Broadcast June 1, 2023
Morano: "You will go nowhere and be happy. This is happening all over the world. Bloomberg News did an article about how cheap airline travel is basically a thing of the past because of 'climate compliance' laws. So this is happening globally. We haven’t banned flights yet in the United States, but we can certainly see airline prices going up. Flying is going to be a venue only for the rich. Private jets are not going to face these restrictions. ...
In this Net Zero world which we have signed onto, the United States is fully participating -- we have 15-minute cities being experimented in Europe. It's kind of like the old East Germany, if you leave your sector, you have to pay your fine and can only leave 95 times a year if you leave your little 15-minute area.
You have activists, those people you see defacing art, blocking traffic, they’re calling for a national 'climate emergency'. Guess what happens in a national 'climate emergency'? These activists claim you can only fly when it’s 'morally justifiable'. So if you want to go to Florida for a beach trip, that is not happening, but if you have to go for a funeral, maybe. ...
The Biden Administration is intentionally creating car shortages by mandating electric cars. We’re going to face a situation where they’re trying to force us into mass transit by raising the cost of cars. There’s no way they can meet the utopian vision, but they can restrict our movement."

Flashback 2021: You were warned! Watch: COVID lockdowns morphing into climate lockdowns – Morano on Tucker Carlson

Jane Fonda blames ‘white men’ for climate change – Morano responds: ‘This is actually a mainstream view as identity politics has invaded the entire climate change movement’"This is the woman who said that COVID was God's gift to the Left because it empowered the entire progressive agenda," he recalls. "But what Jane Fonda said here, specifically about white men are responsible for climate change and we should arrest and jail them – this is not an outlier view. This is actually a mainstream view as identity politics has invaded the entire climate change movement and climate science."

France’s Ban on Short-Haul Flights Will Kill People – ‘You’re 2,200 times more likely to die when traveling by car as opposed to by airplane’VERONIQUE DE RUGY of Reason Mag: A recent study out of Harvard University found that, for people traveling within the United States, Europe, and Australia, the chances of being killed while flying are 1 in 11 million, while the chances of being killed while driving are 1 in 5,000. Put differently, you're 2,200 times more likely to be killed when traveling by car as opposed to by airplane. By diverting some travelers from the air to the roadways, the French government will almost certainly cause more travelers to die. Political theater, it turns out, can be deadly. ...
One undesirable effect is a longer time spent traveling. Because people's time is valuable and could otherwise be spent working, studying or with family and friends, the cost of traveling what the French government considers to be short distances will rise. Did Monsieur Macron carefully weigh this cost against the ban's benefits? I'm pretty sure he didn't. He just assumed that people's time is of sufficiently low value to justify the flight ban. Tres arrogant!

Wash Post complicit in climate protests!? ‘Staff reporters were initially subjected to a potential arrest’ due to advance alert of crime at Fed art gallery – Fmr NYT reporter suggests WaPo guilty of ‘crimes’WTOP: The two climate protesters who smeared paint on the case and base of Edgar Degas’ “Little Dancer Aged Fourteen” in the National Gallery of Art on April 27 were arrested Friday. Timothy Martin of North Carolina and Joanna Smith of New York, both 53, were charged with conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States and injury to a National Gallery of Art exhibit.
Washington Post reporters alerted about the attack filmed and photographed the offense. ...The Washington Post reported that it’s staff reporters were initially subjected to a potential arrest but, after speaking with attorneys, they were not detained. District police have not commented on the report. ...
The protesters are calling for President Biden to declare a formal state of climate emergency and said the sculpture was damaged to highlight “insufficient action on the climate emergency.”

Meteorologist Dr. Ryan Maue: "What the hell? This story identifies the Washington Post as the media outlet **alerted ahead of time of criminal acts at the National Gallery of Art** and showed up with cameras. Sounds like accomplices or co-conspirators = Jail 'Washington Post reporters alerted about the attack filmed and photographed the offense.'" ... They did not act alone: More from Wash Post on far-reaching criminal conspiracy to attack the National Gallery of Art. And alerted one member of the media (who was there with a camera and speedily edited the footage lickety-split for Wash Post)."
Former New York Times reporter Andrew Revkin suggested "crimes" may have been committed by the Washington Post. "If yours, were you randomly visiting the @NationalGallery or alerted ahead of time? Seems a fine line between journalism and P.R. if the latter? No easy answer," Revkin wrote, then adding, "crimes?"

Morano on Biden spending $11 billion for solar & wind in rural America: "This is literally a money laundering scheme for the green agenda. That's all this is. $11 billion to do more solar and wind which isn't going to produce energy. At best, it's going to make a few makeshift government jobs that expire when the money for the solar and wind mandates runs out. We've already been through this with Obama administration when Solyndra was booming business until it wasn't when the money ran out. And so they're going to make their grids less reliable, more prone to blackouts. This is truly nuts."
Morano on pushing bug eating: "Climate policy creates food shortages -- which then they can say, 'well, here's a solution to the problem we created with our policy, you have to eat bugs, and it's a game changer of a problem'. This is a real thing. They're pushing insect eating on us by manufacturing a food crisis through bad government policy."

RFK Jr.: Green hero turned anti-vaccine activist takes on Biden – As climate skeptics welcome him – Morano: ‘We need to realign coalitions to oppose Covid & climate coercion’E&E News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was once a hero of the environment in New York...That Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is gone. ...
Kennedy once told Marc Morano, a conservative activist who runs a prominent climate denial blog, that those who reject climate science should be held criminally liable and that polluters should be thrown in jail. Now, Morano says, all is forgiven because Kennedy is “undergoing a genuine transformation over his views on the climate agenda.”
Morano considers the new Kennedy an ally in his fight to sow doubt and distrust around climate science, vaccine research and Covid-19 public health measures.
“I have received some flak from my fellow climate skeptics for being so welcoming and forgiving to RFK Jr., given his hostile history to anyone opposing the climate ‘consensus,’ but I truly believe we are at a pivotal point in U.S. history where we need to realign coalitions to oppose Covid and climate coercion,” Morano said.

‘Only one sausage per month for everyone!’ German Nutrition Society recommends over 90% reduction in daily meat eating– to combat global warming



German daily newspaper Bild: Only one sausage per month for everyone! - "Less meat consumption = better climate? The Lower Saxony Chamber of Agriculture has calculated that even halving meat consumption would bring Germany one percentage point closer to its climate goals." ... "No one wants to ban people from their occasional currywurst. But overall meat consumption in the population is too high for health and sustainability reasons, it’s a scientific fact“, indicates the DGE to the German newspaper.
#
The German Nutrition Society (DGE) now recommends reducing meat consumption to 10 grams per day per person to combat global warming. ... A sudden and radical renunciation: The average meat consumption of Germans is 109 grams per day, or about 763 grams per week. The population will therefore have to drastically change its eating behavior if it agrees to comply with this new strategy.

The UN-approved book Agenda 21: The Earth Summit Strategy to Save Our Planet, explained that “effective execution of Agenda 21 will require a profound reorientation of all human society, unlike anything the world has ever experienced.” ...
Morano warned Tucker Carlson specifically about travel bans back in 2021: "In my book Green Fraud I detailed two chapters on this, Tucker. This is, the climate activists were first of all jealous when the Covid lockdowns happened. They were beside themselves, saying, “How is this happening?” Everyone from Greta Thunberg to John Kerry, UN officials. And then they started saying, “We need to follow this. If we can shut down for a virus, we can shut down for climate.” And that’s what we’re seeing. There’s even academics in Australia proposing adding climate change to death certificates. And Bill Gates has said the death toll will be greater. So they’re following every step of the way, and it’s not just, you know, a professor here, or someone in academia. We have a major U.K. report coming out, we have an international agency report that came out calling for essentially the same type of lockdowns — everything from restrictions on your thermostat to restrictions [on] moving. You can only fly in a climate emergency, one that’s “morally justifiable.” You know, kinda like a lockdown, you have to justify going to the store for essential services. They’re going after freedom of movement. They’re going after private car ownership. They’re going after everything it means to be a free person and turning it over to the administrative state."

Today’s ‘green theology,’ is leading a neo-feudal war on the people: The elites are steadily impoverishing the working and middle classes.
JOEL KOTKIN: Excerpts: The middle class is also under pressure from green ideology. Perhaps the once aspirational middle orders will resign themselves to renting – a future where they will ‘own nothing and be happy’, as the gnomes of Davos suggest. Maybe so, at least with sufficient drugs and videogames. But as the younger generations age, they won’t be able to fall back on their own assets, and instead will have to rely on the state. ...

Today’s green theology, adopted by both the bureaucratic clerisy and oligarchic elite, has little room for the robust economic growth that might sustain a comfortable middle class. Meanwhile, the elites’ wealth continues to rise regardless, thanks to asset inflation.
The upper echelons of society – like the medieval nobility and clergy before them – will hardly feel the difference. ‘Net Zero’ and its effects won’t stop the higher-ups from riding around on private jets, acquiring massive estates and yachts or even shooting their girlfriends into outer space. Indeed, for some, green ideology provides an opportunity, as the uber-wealthy capitalise on subsidies for wind, solar and electric cars. After all, central to Elon Musk’s megafortune is his clever bet on green incentives through his EV giant, Tesla.
To placate the struggling masses, there has been a steady move in Europe to expand state support. Meanwhile, in America, oligarchs including Musk have argued for a guaranteed ‘universal basic income’, in a post-industrial version of what Marx derided as the ‘proletarian alms bag’. ... Accordingly, the Wall Street-friendly Republicans, eager to quell discontent about these growing class divides, are increasingly looking at transfer payments as a way to keep the commoners satisfied, or at least to stop them from brandishing pitchforks.
