“Personal carbon rations would have to be mandatory, imposed by Government in the same way that food rationing was introduced in the UK in 1939… Each person would receive an electronic card containing their year’s carbon credits …see the Tyndall Centre’s study on “domestic tradable quotas”… and their recent establishment on the political agenda…the card would have to be presented when purchasing energy or travel services, and the correct amount of carbon deducted. The technologies and systems already in place for direct debit systems and credit cards could be used.”

(Environmental Audit Committee minutes-House Of Commons-London)

Preface. This is a factual account of the highly politicised concept of catastrophic man made climate change. The views quoted above are supported in principle by the UK govt but said to be ahead of their time. However, the means to achieve them are now being quietly introduced into main stream thinking through the systematic use of a political agenda that uses the alarming notion of catastrophic man made climate change as the means to force through a measure of social engineering unequalled in the UK in modern times.

In promoting this notion, alternative and well researched views that oppose the science lying behind the unproven hypothesis are stifled, and derision heaped on those pointing out previous well documented warming and cooling periods that occur in, as yet, little understood cycles throughout our history."

When the powers to be changed the term "Global Warming to Climate Change". it should have raised some eyebrows, but I still hear and see that people think we are causing the changes.
While we have and still are impacting the Planet, we are not contributing to Earths changes in the amounts
that is being claimed by those that, may I say, have an agenda.
Yes, we do need clean energy, we do need to have better production methods. We do need to control how we process and use our raw materials, but, none of our actions has contributed to the scale of the mass changes that are occurring presently.
These changes are way to massive for humankind to be blamed, therefore, maybe there is some credence to the fact that these changes are happening because of galactic events. Perhaps it is true that the Earth has tilted on it's axis. Perhaps it is true that our magnetic field has diminished dangerously close to us losing it's protection or at least suffer the results of it's decrease.
Perhaps the Earth is beginning it's cyclic change that it periodically goes through. History has proved this event.
Perhaps these events, coupled with media hysteria, is causing people to not think clearly.
Have we bought into the concept, " we must do something,anything " argument?
Frankly, I am tired of bogus reports manufactured so some can profit handsomely from climate change while they take more of our freedoms and finances away from us.
I don't like being told how to act , what to think and someone with their finger in my nose while leading me in the direction they want me to go.
Here's some ideas!
Stop bombing my "Mother Earth"
Stop using extreme measures to grow our crops.
Build safe and efficient powerplants.( we can send men to the moon, but can't build a safe powerplant?)
we need our modes of transportation, stop trying to take them from us in the name of false shortages of fuel.
We have come a long way in making clean burning vehicles and we have technology to make them better so stop suppressing it !
Go ahead people, do everything you can to 'save energy' see what happens to your monthly bill !
Those who are blocking the progress of building new powerplants, no matter what kind they are, stop it and get out of the way. You don't speak for the majority.
Those who are stopping the progress of the U. S. finding and producing it's own fuel sources, stop it and get out of the way.
But then, if some of these power players were out of the way, we wouldn't have a lot of the issues we have.
Remember, in politics, nothing happens by accident !
