Our Planet

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

It is surely one of the video experiences I will long remember. The images are overpowering, and the intended message is clear.
However … the most significant part of the message is ignored, circumlocuted, avoided … except by implication, and left for the thoughtful viewer to decode.
They mention a coming world population of 7 billion.
They do not mention that if we really reduced the acreage of factory farms, reduced our consumption of hydrocarbon fuels as the UN wants us to, (and the Obama Administration will try to force us to via a draconian cap and trade law) there is no way that the world can feed, much less raise seven billion inhabitants to even a fraction of what most would consider an acceptable standard of living without vastly expanding exactly what this message says we must reduce: the vast industries that are essential to now feeding, housing, clothing and transporting  the fortunate ones; such as you and me.
The terrible implication they refuse to state is that rather than allowing world population to rise from about 6 billion now, to 7 billion in a couple of decades, that must absolutely be prevented or none of the measures they advocate will be able to control ever expanding factory farming and additional energy production.
In fact, the truth is even less pleasant than that: to achieve a world that (using present technologies) tries to reduce world hunger and raise the standards of the 4 billion subsistence farmers we have now, is just as impossible.
Nor will reducing those who now live what you and I consider a decent life quality to a much lower standard allow more than a small fraction of the destitute to achieve anything approaching a decent living standard.
So they imply, but avoid saying that world population control … no; world population reduction is a hidden item on their statist agenda.
Only an all powerful, authoritarian world government can impose and enforce such measures… a world dictatorship.
China has enforced a two child policy… and their Communist government brutally enforces it.
Mao helped a bit by killing over 20 million of his countrymen a generation or so ago.
Some time back India instituted a male sterilization program to try to control population growth.
It led to massive riots in the streets and was abandoned.
A prime threat looming up in the Muslim nations, and in those nations to which they have mass emigrated, is their extremely high birth rate.
Europe’s indigenous people (France, Germany, the Dutch, et al) are reproducing at around 1.6 to 1.9 children per family on average.
That means that their culture will die out in two or three generations.
Meanwhile the European immigrant Muslims are averaging 6 to 8 children per family.
Can you see a collision approaching if a World Government tries to limit everyone to 1 or 2 children?
It is interesting that, based upon 20th Century history, advanced industrialized nations do control their populations.
That is evidence that if all the world were as advanced as they, world population would spontaneously shrink to reasonable levels.
This magnificent “documentary” is filled with clever phrases .. “may develop”; “can be as much as”; “is approaching”, “some claim the ice cap will be gone by 2015″, etc.
Also, their flat out statement that “oil is running out” is a blatant lie! We have, right within our own borders recently announced discovering oil that  exceeds what the Arabs have.
In addition, there are known methane hydrate deposits sufficient to power the Earth at present rates for 200 years. (Google “Methane Hydrates” for the DOE report)
Their statement about the polar ice caps shrinking is an absolute lie, as is their claim about the Greenland glaciers melting… and the claim that this century is the warmest on record.
I will attach a valid graph showing the ice cap recent history (see URL below).
And I suggest some “Googling” of the other claims.
Note their use of the plural: “ice caps”.
Antarctica is a continent and that ice is not melting; in fact it is increasing.
This production is very clever and betrays the propagandistic nature of this technically and artistically magnificent piece of work, that they have to resort to bald faced lies to make their point.
It is, to me, another brick in the edifice of falsified claims so recently revealed by the British e-mail leaks; so called “Climate Gate”.
It is becoming both much more difficult and far more important for each of us to question everything, including what I am telling you … as long as you also pursue your own verifications and questions of all sides… and we’ve never had so many handy tools for doing that.
I am becoming more and more convinced that Obama is not only a leader of this world wide statist conspiracy, but that he actually already imagines himself as the President of a World Government. That is why he demeans America in his speeches, why he refused to cover his heart while the Star Spangles Banner was played, and has courted the International Community at every opportunity.
But that is a minor detail in an emerging conspiracy that threatens everything we hold dear and that will, as Obama has said he intends, “to fundamentally change the United States of America.”
I pray that enough of us will see what is happening before it is too late.
And I hope everyone who reads this will also pray for our nation and for our kids, who will inherit what we wind up leaving them.

PS: Boy, Paul Joseph Goebbels would have loved to have such propaganda tools! BH
PPS: I used Google to translate the Hebrew. They did not convey the propaganda aspect.

Here’s the result:

הסרט מדגיש את המאזן שבין הסביבה לצמחייה ולבעלי החיים, ומעביר מסר לפיו קיימים קשר ואיזון עדינים אך חיוניים בין כל צורות החיים על פני ה
פלנטה, וכי אף לא אחת מהן יכולה להתקיים בגפה. הסרט מתאר את היווצרות החיים על פני כדור הארץ, החל באצות ועד ליונקים הגדולים. הוא עומד על הופעתו של האדם, ועל השינוי הכביר שחל עם המהפכה החקלאית. לאחר מכן הוא מתמקד במהפכת האנרגיה שהחלה עם ניצול הנפט, ובתהליכים ההרסניים שהתרגשו ובאו על כדור הארץ בחמישים השנים האחרונות. הסרט מתייחס, בין היתר, לעיור המואץ, להתפתחות התעשייתית ולסכנת הזיהום, לדלדול במשאבי האנרגיה והמחצבים, לבעית המחסור במים ובמזון, לביעור היערות, ואל חוסר השוויון הקיצוני אליו נקלע המין האנושי. עוד עומד הסרט על הנזק לכיפות הקרח בקטבים, על הסכנה הנשקפת לביצות ועל נזק שגורמים ענפי החקלאות המדורניים – חוות הבקר, ומטעי הדקלים והאקליפטוס. Home מתייחס להתחממות העולמית, לעליית פני הים והשינויים הדרמטיים במזג האוויר. הסרט מסיים במאמצים שעושה המין האנושי כדי לתקן את הנזק לו גרם..
