For the past decade the media has been bombarding the public with its green movement agenda. The media tells us that the earth is heating up because of man's careless lifestyle. Supposedly man is burning too many fossil fuels and releasing too much carbon dioxide gas which is trapping heat in earth's atmosphere. Because of this behavior, the earth will undergo a violent environmental upheaval, equivalent to armageddon. At least, this is what the media and big wig scientists would like us to think.
Why has the environment become the focus of the media over the past decade? The answer is money. Big businesses and prominent political figures can expect huge revenue from cap-and-trade procedures. As one company exceeds its carbon emission limit, it can buy the excess carbon emission permits from a company that did not use up its allotted carbon emission amount. This some companies can continue to "pollute" and claim to be green, while another company can make billions from selling its extra carbon emission permits. Political figures such as Al Gore can also expect to make a killing off of cap-and-trade methods. Al Gore, along with David Blood, will make a whole lotta $$$$ from acting as the middlemen for the cap-and-trade deals between companies. Al Gore has also made money on simply promoting the idea of global warming. Gore has already made a sick amount of money off of his movie An Inconvenient Truth and his book Our Choice. Global warming is profitable. Scientists can feed the public data, telling us we must buy new green appliances and invest in new green companies, and support green candidates for office, without us knowing the difference because we are scientist and we cannot possibly know anything about the environment so we must be led blindly by the savior scientists and government. Yeah right, give me a break, since when has the government been concerned with the good of the world. In theory the government should protect the people, but in reality corruption runs rampant through elected ,or otherwise, offices of the world. So it is odd, that the government is suddenly concerned with saving the world. Of course the obvious answer is that they are not, the government has turned the global warming craze into another source of revenue
Well, that's all I have time for today. I will have another post soon, within the next few class periods. Bye
