Global Warming – or – Ice Age: Follow The Money

I’ve written about global warming, climate change, chicken little, and ‘deceit’.   I’ve written about the land grabs in Africa, land grabs in South America, and the disparity of our global water supply.   With damaged soil and a lack of water, how can China grow anything?   What if we put all of these separate topics into one pool – what is it telling us?

Starting with deceit, what if global warming isn’t just a hoax but a distraction from a potentially long term cooling effect?   Such a cooling effect could have devastating consequences on water sources and food supplies shifting useable land resources – south.

The last mini ice-age lasted from about 1300 through the 1600’s and forever altered economic and social norms.   Agriculture shifted.   Populations shifted. Scientists believe the temperature dropped a full 2’ during this period.   The same 2’ that scientists now claim earth needs to drop – again.   Demographics forever changed as people moved to warmer crop climates.   But not before mass famine took its toll on the peasants.   During this time of monarchs and warlords, the elite were defined by the foods available to them.   Fresh meat and fish were a staple.   It forebodes the agenda of Bill Gates declaring that food shortages will require modification of the peasant diet.

Ice ages, cooling trends, etc… are not a global equalizer.   The Northern Hemisphere was hit the hardest including; most of Russia, China, Europe, and North America, and the farthest parts of South America.   Africa was hit in mountainous regions predominantly, and the remainder of South America thrived.

Historically, the movement of people around the globe can be directly associated with ever changing weather.   It is believed that northern Africa was lush and green just 5,000 years ago.   It is also believed that changes in sunspots and radiation levels are the source of historical climate shifts.   Co2 is considered a less demonstrable if only minor event but scientists tend to be like sheep following instead of leading.

If in fact earth was entering either a cooling phase or a mini ice-age, shifting resources to South America and Africa would be logical for survival.

Adecoagro is a Luxembourg holding company that purchases agriculture land predominantly in Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina.   The largest shareholders include:   Qatar Investments, Route One Investment Company, EMS Capital and Soros Fund Management.

Foreign investment in Africa’s land spiked in the last 2 decades with China taking a shotgun seat.   China’s food consumption and environmental practices have left the country nearly barren. Water was severely depleted which necessitated a deal with Russia for access to the world’s single largest fresh water supply at 23%, Lake Baikal.

If we look at foreign investment as a predictor of global climate, buying land in South Africa and South America is nonsensical – given they will burn up and their land will be useless under the global warming mantra.   While these lands have some protection in the event of a cooling trend, in the event of a warming trend, farmland would become barren, scorched moon craters.

Adding to the fray of inconsistency and/or deceit, the Paris Accord’s Green Fund spends ALL it’s cherished dollars on projects in – Africa and South America. The bulk of the funding is for ‘infrastructure projects’ – the same infrastructure that the new owners of the land need in order to create robust farms and agriculture entities.

When researching data graphs that purport to show the variations in weather over thousands or millions of years, scientists are literally ‘all over the graph’.   There is no consensus other than the fact that earth has been a cataclysmic climate event – forever.   Many attribute previous changes to sunspot activity and radiation activity from the sun.   But actual climate recording dates only to the late 1800’s and accuracy is questionable.   The data is algorithmic – fancy estimations.

Prior to the mini ice-age which began around 1300, scientists logged a global warming trend from about 300 to 800AD. Since the end of the mini ice-age in 1600, the warming trend has been continually upward – meaning a downward trend may be the next phase.

Since the Roman Empire, the Greenland ice temperature is 2’ colder.   And in the last 10,000 years we are significantly colder.   Richard K. Moore provides various graphs and models of the temperature grids during this time frame.   He asserts that the Co2 theory is simply that – a theory without any actual scientific proof.   He claims that the sun, and the astronomy of the planets in our universe provide more conclusive extractive data. In his opinion, the ‘science’ behind global warming is on par with flat earth science.   Evaluating data that can only be verified over a period of a 150 years to make a determination for our future thousands of years in advance has about as much actual factual delineation as the weatherman telling you the sun is shining while outside your window it is raining.   If science can’t get real-time data how the heck can you possibly believe their future predictions?   Because that is how they reference the data – a prediction.  

When science is reduced to predictions and feelings and crystal balls – it becomes relatively worthless. Utilizing restrictive time constraints in analysis of climate data only fuses the faulted conclusion.

According to Climatologist Cliff Harris;   “when solar radiation decreases, and volcanic activity increases, a major drop in temperature can be expected”.   In his analysis, that drop would happen relatively quickly.   According to his research, in 1000 BC a mass exodus of Hebrews from Egypt was caused by a warming event that spiked around 1100 BC – at which point the temperature was nearly double what it was in 2000 AD –  before falling into an ice-age.

China has been systematically securing not just intellectual property, and mobilizing monopoly policies on pharma and retail, but food and water supplies have been of paramount importance for its population.   South Africa and South America have been their focus.

When looking at the ‘actions’ of those who govern the world’s money supply, global output, investment, and net worth, they have basically pledged everything on two continents that would burn to the ground in a global warming trend….   That is the deceit.  

California Drought – All The Leaves Are Brown

I have such a hard time listening to the plague of drought that is decimating California. I have a hard time, not just because it is happening, but because it has happened for centuries. California has experienced devastating droughts historically that at times lasted decades. We know this. It is common knowledge. And yet, the real problem is that they have never done one lick to anticipate and fix the ongoing issue. Nothing.

Is it the fault of the people, the homeowners, the farmers? No! They do what they can under the guidance and supervision of – the government. Do they use too much water? Maybe. Is water usage inefficient? Yes – a resounding yes! But it is the JOB of the government to regulate and anticipate and do what is necessary to protect the state and the people from a disaster. They want this job, they get paid for this job – now do it!

California has a history of droughts dating back to 850 A.D. (the earliest recording) in which two droughts lasted 180 and 240 years respectively! Given their were not fossil fuels or ozone depletion or carbon releasing industries polluting the atmosphere during these historical times, it is safe to say these droughts were persistent without blaming ‘climate change’. And in the last 1000 years, 10-20 year droughts have been documented as rather ‘typical’ of the state/area.

And that’s the true problem. Droughts have gone on and on and governors have ignored them – for centuries. Have they built more storage? No. More underground reservoirs? No. Have they built desalinization plants? No. Do they still allocate water to farms that grow nothing? Yes. Do they require lawns to be drought tolerant or rock gardens? No. Half of individual water use is for lawns. But 80% of the water is used for agriculture. For rice paddies in desert land. For growing water absorbing Alfalfa which is mostly exported to China. Almond trees consume 10% of ALL water use – that’s NUTS! And yet they are preserving these cash crops – for hopes of greater $$$ – to the decimation of lower crop values like vegetables. Add to the fray that 60% of almonds are an export crop, its just not practical. Its not about what is best or right – it is about what is going to make me the most money in the quickest time and allow me to high-tail it outa here jack mentality!

So what are farmers doing to make it better? They’re digging deeper and deeper wells, more and more wells, sapping up every last dribble of water that they can without concern for the longer term consequences. And no one is stopping them. In some over-pumped areas, the ground has actually sunk a few dozen feet.

And now California’s government is running around like Chicken Little claiming the sky is falling – when in fact, it already fell. And they have done – nothing!

They take water from Colorado, and run garden hoses to clean debris from their driveway! Grab a broom people! Interesting that Hollywood is silent. How are their expansive gardens doing? Their manicured, lush green? Not a word. So I took the opportunity to see the homes of some of Hollywood’s most famous via ‘google earth’ and was completely – not shocked – to find that they are lush and green. Swimming pools were filled, and lawns were pristine.

So while livelihoods are decimated, Hollywood is immune. In fact, they would seem to believe that they are ‘above’ the plights of the commoner peasant, and they can do whatever they want despite the devastating predicament. Some of the more flagrant decriers of self importance include: Lopez, Kardashian, Streisand, Hefner and West. They would appear to be of the mind that the drought simply does not apply to them and the fine is too ludicrously low to dent their importance. Where are the Hollywood environmentalists; DiCaprio, Redford, Theron, Hanks, Pitt? Well their homes look pretty fine according to Google Earth.

In fact, one water district, Las Virgenes Municipal Water District, which includes many celebrity palaces, states that 70% of their allotment goes to watering just 100 of the posh estates. And while Kardashian gushes that she is a conservationist washing her hair only every five days, she is using thousands of gallons for everything else… Hello?

So where is the Hollywood agenda? The outcry? The action to resolve and create a new, better California equipped to handle any drought that will again wreak havoc in the future? They are silent, because their hypocritical agenda is about talking – not ‘acting’.

The weather media is now claiming that an el-nino will affect California this coming winter with heavy rains. Do you think the folks will simply forget and the government will continue non-business as usual? Of course, always worked in the past.  And if the rains come this winter, well the entire drought will be forgotten and archived.  Until the next time…
