The United States and China have agreed to cooperate and "curb climate change with urgency" in the run-up to this "Earth Weekend"---formerly known as "Earth Day."
Both China and the US, we are told, have made "strong pledges" and are "committed to cooperating with each other and with other countries..."
To do what?
Be informed, not misled.
According to the agreement, the US and China are locked in on cooperating with each other and with other countries to tackle the climate crisis, which must be "addressed with the seriousness and urgency that it demands," they say.
John Kerry, Biden's climate guy, says the language in the agreement is "strong" and the two countries agreed on "critical elements on where we have to go."
"But," Kerry says, "we all need to see what happens."
So, how bad is the climate crisis, and where do we "have to go?"
They say, "The effects of global warming are devastating and is becoming more and more urgent that these emissions are reduced to stop humans from exercising so much pressure on the planet. The situation is so critical that the International Energy Agency (IEA) has forecast an increase in emissions of 130% by 2050 if we continue unabated."
They list the 5 most polluting countries on the planet.
- China--30%
- United States--15%
- India--7%
- Russia--5%
- Japan--4%
The Biden administration has affirmed its desire to embrace the United Nations and "all its causes" and "will back the Paris Climate Accords and the World Health Organization."
Alert.
And Biden is pledging "financial help for climate efforts by less wealthy nations."
The fact that "Mother Earth" is about to burst into flames, and "97% of climate scientists agree" led President Obama to declare the "discussion on climate change is over, it's time to act."
First, there is no 97% consensus among climate change scientists.
The Fraser Institute is one of several organizations that have turned on the light and taken a closer look at the 97% consensus and found it isn't true at all.
I would highly recommend you read the Fraser Report linked above. It details how the claim that 97% of the world's scientists agree that climate change is man-caused is a "fabrication," because the highly touted paper that reported that number, never even asked the question.
The Report carefully details how and why this fundamental "fact" that 97% of scientists agree is a lie.
And that gave Obama the credibility to declare the "debate" on the subject was over, and it gave Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez the support she needed to create her "New Green Deal," which by all accounts is about to be embraced by President Biden and the Democrat majority in the House.
The Fraser Institute's Ross McKitrick concludes, "The phony claim of 97% consensus is mere political rhetoric aimed at stifling debate and intimidating people into silence."
Biden's climate urgency parallels the goal of the "great reset" which establishes a new world order.
Klause Schwab, World Economic Forum founder and Executive Chairman, says, "In every crisis, there is an opportunity."
His organization is saying, "Now is the time for a 'Great Reset'."
Regarding the COVID pandemic, he says, "We can emerge from this crisis a better world if we act quickly and jointly."
Continuing he says, "The changes we have already seen in response to COVID-19 prove that a reset of our economic and social foundations is possible."
His organization says the International Monetary Fund expects to shrink by 3% this year---a downgrade of 6.3 percentage points in just 4 months. All of this will exacerbate the climate and social crisis that are already underway.
The World Economic Forum began in 1971 as a European Management Forum focusing on how European companies could emulate business practices in the US.
Since then it has evolved and been renamed to World Economic Forum, with its annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland which most of us know simply as "Davos."
His Great Reset agenda would have three components to what Schwab calls "Stakeholder Capitalism," which doesn't focus just on investment and return, but other social issues as well.
The first would steer the market toward fairer outcomes---the "global agenda."
The second deals primarily with income and wealth inequality.
The third requires "mutual urgency" with purpose. Stakeholder Capitalism is advocated as "for the greater good."
Justin Haskins of the conservative Heartland Institute says, "For those of us who support free markets, the Great Reset is nothing short of terrifying."
Forbes says, "Stakeholder Capitalism" is an old idea being pushed as new and is destined to fail.
I personally agree.
We are already seeing corporations acting on the "Stakeholder" ideology---like Coke and others, making bad business decisions by supporting social and political agendas that have very adverse consequences.
Stakeholder Capitalism is a form of virtue signaling. It's not about helping others, it's about beating the chest of the powerful, humbly accepting the praise of Hollywood, our peers, or whomever while working to "remake" a nation and advance globalism.
The so-called progressive left is no less deceptive with their "Green New Deal."
On this "Earth Weekend," we will see that kind of hypocrisy on full display.
It will be love and compassion for Mother Earth reaching religious proportions, driven by urgency and virtuous purpose---with a motive to "remake" or "reset" the greatest nation in the history of the world--and usher in a new era of globalism and the redistribution of wealth. And it will be done with great urgency---in order to save ourselves.
Takeaway.
Whether it's to reset, remake, or simply rename an old idea, unfortunately, deception is woven into the fabric of our culture.
And it's always been that way. It's just more "urgent," more blatant today. And more brazen.
Romans 16:18 identifies those who "deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting with smooth talk and flattering words."
Ephesians 5:6 warns, "Don't let anyone deceive you with meaningless words."
The progressives are defined by their "meaningless words."
Be Informed. Be Discerning. Be Vigilant. Be Prayerful.
