The grim truth about Global Warming in one terrifying image

The truth is that what the Greens are proposing by being carbon neutral in 32 years is just bullshit. They are offering us all an umbrella to protect us from a tsunami.

The current political spectrum can not force the adaptation we need to conduct in the next 20 years to prepare us for the cataclysm of climate change.

Voters will rebel once the reality of that cataclysm can no longer be ignore.

    • Good article Martyn.

      Our future under global corporations is sadly on course for destruction it seems, as ‘profits before people iis the method corporastions seem to want to kill off the one third of humanity to make the world sustainable.

      Many many people and greed is indemic and will ruin our future survival.

      • +100 CLEANGREEN…and the present NZ Greens Party does not seem to realise this ie Naomi Kleins message that the problem is neoliberalism

        ‘This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs the Climate by Naomi Klein – review’

        https://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/sep/19/this-changes-everything-capitalism-vs-climate-naomi-klein-review

        …”Navarro Llanos explained how tough international climate action might mobilise what she called “a Marshall Plan for the Earth”…”

        https://revisesociology.com/2017/07/06/klein-naomi-this-changes-everything-summary/

        “Klein argues that the three policy pillars of the neoliberal age (1989 – present day ) are each incompatible with many of the actions we must take to bring our emissions to safe levels and bring climate change under control.

        The three main neoliberal policies are:

        *privatisation of the public sphere
        *deregulation of the corporate sector
        *lowering of income and corporate taxes, paid for with cuts to public spending.

        These neoliberal ideas lie at the heart of the World Trade Organisation, and many of its policies are incompatible with a sustainable future. Specifically Klein says there are three contradictions between the (neoliberal) goals of the WTO and what’s needed to control climate change.

        Firstly, the WTO encourages more international trade which has meant a huge increase in fossil fuel burning container ships and lorries. Reduced carbon emissions would require less trade or more local trade.

        Secondly, the WTO gave TNCs the rights to sue national governments for preventing them from making a profit out of mining/ burning fossil fuels, whereas to protect the environment, governments would need to be able pass laws to protect the environment.

        Thirdly, the WTO has given western companies stronger patent rights over their technologies – whereas if renewable technologies are to be transferred to the developing world, they would need to make their own cheap copies of those technologies (because they would not be able to afford to buy them).

        As general evidence of the link between neoliberal policies and the increase in global warming we have the following stats – ‘Before the neoliberal era, emissions growth had been slowing from 4.5% annual increases in the 1960s to about 1% a year in the 1990s, but between 2000 and 2008 the growth rate reached 3.4%, before reaching a historic high of 5.9% in 2009. (Evidence for this comes in the form of the report below (although growth does slow in more recent years!)

        • 100% RB.

          We left the green party in 2002 when we saw the righting on the wall that the green party had turned into another neo-libertal Party to stay in Government at the centre.

          I am hooppeful that now they will wake up again and embrace the dangers we face as we are now on the cliff about to fall into the fire and caldren abyss to perish.

          A sad end to a beautiful world full of promise.

          • A sad ending for all the species who have not driven the demise of a benign biosphere.

            Predatory man has lost control of the most voracious greed embodied in the actions of a small dominant minority.

  1. I can’t see how the Green Party is at fault, given it is the only party who actually takes climate change seriously. For them to have more power, they will need more votes. As long as the majority of New Zealanders vote for the other parties and don’t think climate change is a big enough issue to vote on, there is very little the Green Party can do. If it was to promote the more radical policies that members of the Green Party like myself know are needed, the Green Party wouldn’t even be in the coalition government

  2. Lets stop beating around the bush the technology exists already to ditch all fossil fuels except the powers that be are keeping it from the public as it would destroy those industries because those industries control the governments. The Greenwash party refuses to acknowledge that alternative physics such as the real Nikolai Tesla and Mehran Keshe have developed to prove that we can access unlimited amounts of free energy from the universe at little cost: https://keshefoundation.org/

    Not to mention the alien free energy technology being kept hidden from the worlds public.

    The following DRAFT speech was written by Dr. Greer when requested by two separate points of contact to President Trump and President Putin. The two contacts do not know each other but both requests were made over a few weeks in the Spring of 2018.

    Dr. Greer wrote this speech as a DRAFT template that could be adapted by any world leader to announce that we are not alone in the Universe and have had contact with extraterrestrial civilizations.

    You may forward this speech to leaders in your own country, and resend and request that President Trump and President Putin collaborate on such an announcement in coordination with the UN and other world leaders in China, the EU and elsewhere.

    Thank you!

    My fellow Americans/ My fellow Russians/ And all the citizens of earth:

    It has come to our attention that Extraterrestrial civilizations of great technological advancement have been visiting the earth for some time.

    While their presence likely dates from very ancient times, the modern era since WW II has seen a large increase in sightings and interactions with these advanced life forms and their spacecraft.

    It must be emphasized that they appear to pose no threat to humanity or earth, but instead are quite concerned about our own unchecked war -making capabilities and violence, combined with our early attempts at the exploration of space.

    Since the dawn of the nuclear era, these extraterrestrial civilizations have made concerted efforts to do reconnaissance at all known space and nuclear facilities. In some cases these facilities have been penetrated by ET craft and our nuclear missiles rendered inoperable. Such incursions appear designed to warn us not to use these world-destroying nuclear weapons and are not acts of hostility.

    They also appear concerned with the rapid decay of our biosphere and environment and the extinction of many species on earth.

    Since World War II there have been extremely secretive programs studying the energy , communication and propulsion systems of these ET spacecraft.

    It is time for us to disclose these momentous scientific findings to you.

    These technologies have the potential- if used only for peaceful purposes- to give us a new and sustainable civilization on earth, free of poverty and pollution within a generation.

    However, if used for destructive and violent purposes these same technologies could end our civilization.

    For this and other reasons the strictest secrecy has surrounded the study of these extraterrestrial technologies.

    But the time has arrived for the truth to be known: we are not alone in the universe. And it is time for humanity to become a mature, peaceful civilization and take its place in the cosmos with other advanced peoples from other star systems.

    To this end, I call on the world community, other world leaders and all the people of earth to come together and begin this new era on earth.

    We must make open, peaceful contact and initiate diplomatic ties to these other worlds. We must do this as children of earth and not just one nation. All nations and people of earth must be represented and empowered in this process.

    We must commit to keeping all weapons out of space and going only into space for peaceful purposes that benefit all of humanity.

    We must bring forth these advanced energy and propulsion technologies so that the world’s environment and people benefit. We must all agree to never allow these new technologies to be used as weapons of war.

    And we must commit amongst ourselves that if any nation or group attempts to use these technologies for violent or destructive purposes, every nation and people on earth will rise up to immediately stop it.

    We face a choice: If we do nothing, our environment and civilization will degrade and we may face extinction. If we use this new knowledge and science for war and destruction we will also surely perish.

    But if we establish a world of peace, humanity can now advance as a civilization that is sustainable, just and worthy of exploring the universe.

    This is the singular and great challenge of our generation: to establish world peace, and to create a new sustainable civilization. Once we have achieved this foundation of peace and justice, we have learned that these other worlds will welcome us in the cosmos with open arms and hearts.

    So, my fellow citizens of earth, let us work together to achieve the destiny of humanity: An enlightened, peaceful world that joins her place among the other people of the cosmos.

    For this is the only possible good future for humanity. It is time for us to unite as a people and create that good future – NOW.

    • Plasma / Focus Torch Technology is already here.

      Cold Fusion excess energy technology has been known for years.

      “SAFIRE Project Update.”

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeVdzSjPx0g&list=PLylIBHizke56TIODJeFnmUb3s0OMAURcg&index=1

      Yes, the associated technology has been suppressed by Global Elite.
      (more accurately not funded for development)

      Yes, anti-gravity is involved.

      I don’t think any ‘alien tech’ needs to be part of the picture.

      I believe it is used as a cover in case they get sprung.

      Cheers.

  3. Not just bullshit it’s simply green washed business as usual & short term thinking at its worst. Compromise, survival & political careerism is the name of the game for all political parties, not just the greens. For many years it’s been predicted that a form of GREEN FASCISM will eventually emerge to put the liberal elite to the sword & save the day. Unfortunately, this is the only solution that seems to make sense right now.

    • Indeed, democracy really only works in benign times.
      War times see grand coalitions and “emergency powers”.
      We’re certainly in warlike conditions now in terms of impact and urgency.

  4. HUMAN EXTINCTION .com

    Everybody knows capitalism is more important than the planet .

    While we settle in with a nice parrot dog IPA and watch ” the Block” series 3042 we might want to sip on this ….

    The worlds 6 mass extinction has already started with 150 species going extinct every week and the latest National Geographic claiming the worlds greatest living structure the Great Barrier Reef is 50% now dead coral .

    Under the translucent sea ice of the Arctic is green phytoplankton which provides the food for zooplankton , then fish, seals , whales,and polar bears. If the ice goes the entire Arctic food chain collapses.[ Documentary :Arctic Peril ]

    But that’s not the bad bit .

    Once the reflective protection of the ice cap goes in the summer the water becomes warmer . Under the ice cap, deep in the ocean , is megagiga tons of frozen methane ,methane hydrate ,which once released will raise earths temp well above 6 degrees and create an uncontrolable feedback loop which releases more megagiga tons of co2 and methane from the melting permafrost and sea bed to take it even higher .oh shit .

    If we the people allow this to happens , all life will perish, other than a few bacteria .10 years – 100 years doesn’t really matter, we simply don’t have the technology to stop it , there is no tech fix ,its just too big .We need to act now .

    David Attenbrough will have to do a series “Life On Mars “, because there simply won’t be enough life on Earth .

    While humans may flatter themselves that they can adapt quickly plant and animal habitats can’t and that’s ultimately what feeds humans , 7.5 billion of us .Food security issues /food/water wars and mega mass migrations as crops fail at 4 degrees.

    I spoke in person with Prof Guy McPherson last year and argued that the end of civilization may not be the end of humanity if small pockets of humans survive . Now I am less sure, if the planet goes to 10 degrees above current temperatures due to the extra release of frozen polar greenhouse gases ,postindustrial humans may perish too .

    Many Australian climate scientists are moving to Tasmania .

    The candy floss of mainstream media soothes us with the sensation of gentle rain on the back of our necks but it is actually neoliberalism pissing on us .Wake up sleepy hobbits ,we are being delivered a false sense of security single every day .

    The science says we don’t have the luxury of decades to make substantial reductions , and we have just signed the TPPA which pledges the accelerated mining , transportation and consumption of fossil fuels . Signed by Labour .

    32 more years of “business as usual” before we get serious is not democracy its idiotocracy.

    Can we stop this ? Its probably too late already according to many scientific commentators , just enjoy the rest of your life and party up .Pity about the kids .

    Business can’t make a lot of money out of a world that consumes less so the neoliberal car of civilization will still be locked on full throttle while its flying off the cliff. They just won’t tell you there is a cliff coming because it would be bad for business .Literally, Growth growth growth till the planet dies .

    Its institutionalized global genocide by a bunch of largely old white males with clinical greed disorders.

    Artificial intelligence needs to kill 5 out of 7 humans now if we want to protect the biosphere because the the smartest animal on the planet is also the most stupid .

    The excessive burning of fossil fuels by humans now appears just the smouldering fuse to a much much larger pile of frozen dynamite under the north pole .

    Wana take a risk and find out ? You bet , what do scientist know anyway , lets melt the pole .

    Have a nice day .

  5. All ready the GREENS are being blamed for our impending planet crash with ourselves. The Greens are not in power with the numbers to do much else than voice the meaningless carbon neutral by 2030 bit like Fonterra, farmers and AirNZ do. The GREENS will not be given the reins until the last leaf falls off the last tree, the last bird has gone, the last fish has been cooked and the last stream has been pumped.
    And the the GREENS will be voted in with the remaining populous screaming “Fix it Now”
    The only way for us to get out of this ecological down spiral is for us all to abandon money, now at midnight, world wide. All debt wiped along with all savings etc. We get to go straight into survive or die. Sooner or later this is going to happen anyway. But I have a feeling we will keep on shuffling our way towards the edge.
