Copenhagen snow - big business control of the weather!

The snow yesterday in Copenhagen undoubtedly gave a boost to climate
change sceptics (deniers), quite possibly affecting the final outcome
- a very weak deal without legally binding emission cuts.

So was the snow just a random event? In my opinion, no! There is
planning, including computer modelling of the world, by organisations
with various agendas competing for control of the planet, and part of
this planning involves supposedly natural events such as the weather.
It is not a question of whether such modelling takes place, but as to
which forces in the world are dominant and to what extent they control
society; when there is so much at stake, things don't happen by
accident. The tsunami in the Indian Ocean on Boxing Day 2005 was
closest to Aceh in Indonesia and Sri Lanka, both of which had strong
national liberation movements, perhaps with the intention of cutting
across them by engineering moods of national unity. An earthquake
shortly afterwards was nearest Aceh.

I have held such a view of computer modelling for some time, as
encapsulated by my poem "The World Is Planned" (http://
galaxiamusic.org/lyrics/planned-4.html), which has the following
chorus:

Can you understand
That the world is planned?
But free will has a hand
In the struggle for every land

I have argued for society being primarily a struggle between people
who have primarily good intentions (are altruistic), and want a more
harmonious, united and peaceful world and those with mainly bad
intentions (are selfish) who want a continuation of the world's
problems (which of course includes global warming although I don't
think even they would want the extinction of humanity since being
selfish includes caring about your descendents). In newer versions of
my New Good Intentions Manifesto (http://socialiststeve.me.uk/good-
intentions-manifesto.html), I recognised that Marxist ideas of class
are also correct to a certain extent, with working class people
tending to be more altruistic than big businesspeople. I'd now
emphasise more the struggle between those with a socialist agenda and
those with a capitalist one, with good or bad intentions influencing
people's dedication to a particular cause.

In more recent versions of the poem, I put "They control the weather"
in the past tense, since the economic crisis has restricted the
ability of the forces of big business to control events in the world.
However, big business has survived the crisis and seems to be in a
stronger position internationally than I realised.

On the other hand, the political situation has been transformed
somewhat in a socialist direction in Britain, with Labour more
prepared to attack the rich (on bankers' bonuses and advocating a tax
on financial transactions) and with its manifesto at the next general
election including democratic workers' and users' control of public
services (see http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2009/nov/11/labour-manifesto-public-services-sector).
However, Labour respects property rights and stands for socialism
without the fundamental redistribution of wealth that revolutionaries
call for (just as Latin American governments have let capitalist
corporations continue). The rhetoric reflects the change in the Labour
Party with prime minister Gordon Brown saying "we cannot permit the
politics of narrow self-interest to prevent a policy for human
survival" in Copenhagen.

I have argued that the main strategy employed by big business to stay
in control of the world is divide-and-rule, including on climate
change with some people more willing to make personal sacrifices to
help combat global warming than others. We (socialists) should
encourage renewable sources of energy to cut across this. We should
also point out that, even though natural processes like sun spots
sometimes affect temperatures more than human beings, glaciers and ice
at the poles are melting to a large extent, so it is clear that global
warming is a real problem that needs to be resolved - and hopefully
will be by a new global treaty in a much better mainly socialist
world, in the near future.

It seems that the main thing holding up a strong global climate deal
is the fact that the struggle between socialists and capitalists is on-
going and yet to be resolved; we should redouble our efforts to change
the world in order to prevent millions from dying as a result of
global warming.

A convert? Are you joking? Wallis is obviously an arch-"Globalist,"
who is using conspiratorial weather change to oppose conspiratorial
climate-change "pseudo-science." He's proof of my conjecture that the
*written* ravings of a madman are indistinguishable from the rantings
of a peasant (or pseudo-peasant), but while vngelis is a fascist,
Wallis is a reformist.

This is the David Icke school of thought. As he says things we do,
therefore
we are characterised as loony. Dont you think the state itself will
create a whole
host of characters who will say correct things in order then to make
them disreputable?

The example of MI5 David Shayler comes to mind who got big on 9/11
then said he

There's a good peasant non sequitur for you.

A lunatic denier? Part of the anti-psychiatry crowd? Well, even if you
abstractly deny the existence of mental illness, only a peasant could
NOT see the Wallis poster's lunacy. [Or does the non sequitur go you
he's not crazy because you know his family. Everything's possible for

My mind on the question is not at all closed: we live and learn. There
is one proviso: that where we are talking about large scale and energy
requiring processes that the fundamental of the Laws of Thermodynamics
apply. An example would be that known and operable triggering and
cascading mechanisms pertain where energy inputs are small relative to
the effect. That is conceptually possible. Just think of the H-bomb -
without the three decade conditioning following on from Einstein's
Special Relativity no one would have believed in the claimed cause of
Hiroshima/Nagasaki.

Scientists at the Lawrence Livermore laboratory have proposed
technological solutions as a several orders of magnitude cheaper
solution to "global warming" than carbon abatement, which they
presumably postulate as working.

His focus was always on maintaining that old-boy elitist ivory tower
academic life that he loved so much; he was born a working-class Jew,
but found his home in upper-crust WASP circles, rubbing elbows with
such luminaries as Bill Buckley. Frankly, I think such a man was
probably too shallow to ever worry about such trifling matters as
politics or economics.

Being from California, where there really isn't much cultural envy as
such, I've never understood the attraction that patrician society
holds.

He hung out with the Buckleys, the Buckley types loved his book, and
wanted to purge academia of all those who didn't. Whether he himself
ever gave any thought to politics or economics is almost irrelevant.
His book was a political tool in academia, against all those academics
who thought things that the Buckleys do not like. Especially those who
didn't like imperialism, racism, etc.

Bloom was essentially the philosopher of the neo-cons, quite a few of
whom came from backgrounds similar to Bloom's.

For more on this, read about the huge donnybrook in American academia
in the Nineties over the Enola Gay Hiroshima exhibit.

You made the part up about the "media being independent." But your

You sell the men in cave theory of the war on terrorism not myself.
Even after Foreign Ministers of Labour organisations came out to
expose them.

Your fake concern regarding dues are exactly that fake.
When more serious issues are exposed and people die in mysterious
circumstances it is as it is sold by the mass media.

Years ago I would have defined someone like yourself as an appendage.
Now you are just connected, by an umbilical cord to the mega
corporations
who in unison sell the same line, be it on swine flu, terrorism,
multiculturalism,

No doubt it was, and he certainly inspired such luminaries as Daniel
Pipes and David Horowitz. But it's easy to overstate the importance
of political struggles within academia, especially for an academic.
Bloom wasn't a Buckley or a Kristol--he was just a conservative
gadfly, not a frothing-at-the-mouth imperialist ideologist.

But he didn't go as far as the others, especially since he never made
an issue of Israel, like the neocons do, none more so than
Krauthammer.

More common than any other, and now that Cali has net emigration to

Well the issue isn't whether the climate is changing since it has been doing
that for eons. The issue is whether or not we are between ice ages or
between tropical weather and a past ice age.

Many years ago Wales had a Mediterranean climate, then it entered a much
colder period and is now temperate.

Why don't we all agree that we don't know what will happen in the future,
whether that be another ice age or a furnace and accept that no matter what
we need to have a plan for both since there are no options to leave Earth.

Why don't "we all" agree that the main driver of climate on Earth is
the Sun!

The whole "Wicked-Man Caused Global Warming" beat-up is about CONTROL
and big money for the cosmopolitan and parasitic Money Power which
ought to be removed from the face of the Earth, it having already half
destroyed numerous nations and is working hard to do the same to the
rest.
