Climate change is galactic!

Investment bankers and carbon traders are already gearing up for the UN Paris climate conference scheduled in December. The aim of “securing a legally-binding global climate agreement on curbing carbon emissions” is in reality an attempt for global dictatorship. From Thomas Malthus to Bertrand Russell to green movement founder Prince Philip and his modern acolytes, the British imperial elite, now the London-Wall Street elite, have schemed of ways to forcibly stop nations from using their own energy resources for development, so that colonial—and now financial—powers can control those resources for their own power and profits; London and Wall Street banks reaping billions by speculating on carbon credits that all nations will be forced to trade is the latest extension of this imperial suppression.
The issue was never about climate because in reality climate change is a galactic phenomenon. Carbon dioxide has never been—nor will be—a significant driving force of climate as any honest geologist will attest.
Cosmic rays originating from deep outer space and solar cycles are the drivers of climate change. Planet Earth is cycling through the Milky Way galaxy in two cycles: the 62-million-year-cycle of our solar system’s movement up and down through the plane of our galaxy and the 145-million-year-cycle corresponding to the motion of our solar system around the galaxy and through its spiral arms. The resulting variations in cosmic rays reaching earth are further modulated by the sunspot cycle: the more sunspots there are, the more intense is the solar energy showering the earth, through which less cosmic rays can pass; fewer sunspots means more cosmic rays reach earth.
The galactic forces affecting climate and weather are not just of prehistoric significance. These forces have very real consequences right now. A 2008 study “Role of Variations in Galactic Cosmic Rays in Tropical Cyclogenesis: Evidence of Hurricane Katrina” by Bondur, Pulinets and Kim showed a remarkable relationship between solar activity, galactic cosmic rays, and the infamous hurricane Katrina which devastated New Orleans in 2005.
Scientists who have seriously looked at geological history know that carbon dioxide (CO2) levels today at 400 parts per million are much lower than for most of the history of life on Earth and 450 million years ago the Earth went into an Ice Age when CO2 levels exceeded 4,000 ppm—ten times the current concentration. Earth’s climate has always changed with variations in cosmic energy from our galaxy as it moves through the Milky Way.
The most dramatic climate change in recent human history occurred around 13,000 years ago as the Earth emerged from a 100,000-year-long freezing glacial period. At the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) approximately 20,000 years ago, sea levels were around 125 metres lower than today. Aboriginal tribes walked from mainland Australia to Tasmania over what is now Bass Strait. For all the hoopla over rising sea levels today measured in millimetres, consider that at the LGM not only was Bass Strait non-existent, the Gulf of Carpentaria and most of the Timor and Arafura Seas were part of the Sahul continent, which also included New Guinea.
Over the last 1.25 million years, Earth has experienced 13 ice ages on a 100,000-year cycle corresponding with our planet’s orbital cycle around the sun. This is known in the scientific community as one of the Milankovitch cycles, specifically the Earth’s eccentricity. The Earth has experienced a cooling trend for several million years and fortunately (for the past 13,000 years) we now live in a warmer interglacial period, but this won’t last for long. Oxygen isotope records indicate that warm interglacial periods have typically lasted 10,000–15,000 years. This means the next cold glacial period will hit us relatively soon, and failing intervention, future generations will need to adapt to icy conditions lasting a likely 90,000 years.
German-American rocket-engineer Krafft Ehricke in the 1970s prepared several documents detailing a plan to place mirrors in space, reflecting extra sunlight on the Earth to targeted locations. Such vision may well serve humanity in averting an otherwise inevitable perilous glacial cooling. Extra light will improve crop yields and prevent frost damage.
The Abbot government’s ludicrous $2.55 billion Emissions Reduction Fund won’t change the climate one bit. And last month’s $660 million carbon auction yielding a $13.95 per tonne carbon price, described by Environment Minister Greg Hunt as “a stunning result” was in reality a complete waste of our hard-earned taxpayer dollars for zero climate outcome.
Instead of being sucked into the swindle of CO2 reduction, funding for climate change should be directed to better understanding the galactic nature of climate to assist with forecasts and allow for weather modification. For example, scientific studies demonstrate that ionisation in the atmosphere from incoming cosmic rays generates rain, by playing an important role in cloud droplet formation and precipitation, thus mediating a cooling and warming effect on Earth. By applying these scientific principles in cloud formation we are able to greatly increase rainfall as several trials worldwide have demonstrated.
Australian Rain Technologies’ ATLANT™ rainfall enhancement ionisation technology has demonstrated in both Australia and Oman that by using an electrical charge to create negative ions, cloud droplet formation occurs at a faster rate. The most recent trials in Oman identify at least an 18 per cent boost in rainfall. The charging stations only require about 500 watts to operate and in 2013, it was estimated this technology generated 53,940 megalitres of water in summer while it was 56,520 megalitres last year. By contrast a water desalination plant would require about 40,000 times more power to produce the same volume of water.

URGENT Senate CUTS DEAL on secret trade deal Fast Track – Tell Congress it's time to Stop the TPP Fast Track! – Every voice counts!

Dear Tom,
This is not a drill. This is as serious as it gets.
BREAKING: Senate VOTES TODAY ON TPP FAST TRACK – TAKE ACTION NOW!
Today the bipartisan selling out of America has begun. If the TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership) Fast Track passes, it will make GMO labeling illegal and outlaw the passage of bans on Monsanto’s cancer-causing weedkiller Roundup.
Late yesterday afternoon, Senator Democrats cut a deal with Republicans on approving the Fast Track of what we’re calling Monsanto’s secret trade agreement, one of the most disastrous trade deal ever written. According to the New York Times, if approved, this current agreement gives Congress “the power to vote on the Trans-Pacific Partnership once it is completed, but lawmakers could not amend it”.
Already last month, the Senate Finance Committee passed the first step to Fast Track when it passed the Trade Provision Authority (TPA) by a wide bipartisan 20 to 6 votes and the House Ways and Means Committee voted 25 to 13 days later. Voting the trade agreement out of these important committees means the only thing left is a floor vote of the House and Senate, which begins voting on fast track approval this afternoon.
Not surprisingly, members of the Senate Finance Committee received more than $236 million in corporate donations in 2014 alone. That sounds like a nice down payment on a new trade agreement! What do you think those corporations were trying to buy?
This is urgent! Make sure to call your Senators and Representatives today!
1. Sign the petition to send President Obama and Congress an urgent message – tell them it’s time to stop working behind closed doors. Don’t let our democratic rights be stolen by secret trade agreements. Every voice counts!
2. Then, (more important) Please Tom take 30 seconds to call your Senators and member of Congress today and Tell them to Vote NO on Monsanto’s Secret Trade Deal, which will make GMO labeling illegal.
http://action.fooddemocracynow.org/call/stop_Fast_Track_Monsantos_Secret_Trade_Deal/?t=9&akid=1561.481082.8R_ji2
If the fast track is approved, it gives the President alone the full authority to negotiate the trade agreement, which most members of Congress have still not even been allowed to read. The trade agreement is so secret that no drafts have been published anywhere, and even Senators and their staffers who read the bill are not allowed to take notes on the trade agreement out of the room. Why the secrecy?
The real point of these “free trade” agreements is to allow for a free flow of commodities, intellectual property, pharmaceuticals, pesticides and GMOs around the world, not protect the American people.
The Monsanto Clause – Investor State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) Provision – Monsanto’s Get out of Jail Free Card
Most Americans are rightfully suspicious of the current trade deals because past promises of job creation have created the opposite, helping hollow out the American middle class and these trade agreements contain language that erode basic representative democracy.
Unfortunately, due to a little-known provision called “investor-state dispute settlement,” (ISDS) “corporations could rise to the level of nations and be empowered to sue governments directly over environmental protections that they claim might hurt their profits.”
This makes the Fast Track for the TPP and TTIP are essentially a Get Out of Jail Free card for Monsanto and other corporate polluters and we need your help to stop it from overriding America’s laws.
That’s right, if a city, state or country passed an environmental, labor or consumer safety protection law, like a ban on fracking or restrictions on chemical or pesticide use, all a multinational corporation has to do is sue under the Investor State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) provision to regain lost profits.
Independent analysis of the TPP has confirmed that this secret trade agreement would be like a global Monsanto Protection Act on steroids, but for multiple industries, basically giving complete freedom for corporations to overwrite democratically written laws in independent nations and allowing giant corporations to sue nations if they believe a law passed by their elected officials potentially harms or limits corporate profits on highly dubious products like GMOs and pesticides and harmful practices like fracking.
Make no doubt about it, this is the greatest assault on democratic freedom that we have witnessed by out of control corporate lobbyists and their front groups.
Already ExxonMobil and Chevron have used similar rules in other trade deals to initiate more than 500 lawsuits against 95 governments.
TAKE ACTION: Tell Congress “Not so fast!! Vote NO on the TPP FAST TRACK!
Fast Track is the Intentional Bipartisan Gutting of GMO Labeling in the U.S. and Around the Globe
At the moment, none of the trade agreement documents have been released to the public, but what we know about past trade deals and the Investor State Dispute Settlement provision look tame compared to the language that is actually contained in TPA which passed the Senate Finance Committee last month.
It’s being called the “Bipartisan Congressional Trade Priorities and Accountability Act of 2015.” But what it really is, is the global Monsanto Protection Act on steroids. What the current agreement really means is that the world MUST adopt Monsanto’s Rules on “Science” – i.e. GMOs and their Cancer Causing Roundup are Safe!
If you think we’re kidding, consider the language pulled from the initial language of the bipartisan Fast Track agreement below. Page 6 of the Bipartisan Congressional Trade Priorities and Accountability Act of 2015 for the agricultural section states:
(i) “encourage the adoption of international standards and require a science-based justification be provided for a…measure if the measure is more restrictive than the applicable international standard.”
(ii) improve regulatory coherence, promote the use of systems-based approaches , and appropriately recognize the equivalence of health and safety protection systems of exporting countries;
Translation: The U.S. government and Monsanto says GMOs and the cancer-causing Roundup are perfectly safe. Your government, city, state or county can do NOTHING to stop Monsanto, DuPont or Dow Chemical from IMPORTING GMOs or their toxic chemicals, even if your state, city or county has passed a ban prohibiting them.
The agreement goes on to say that all countries must implement trade measures “based on risk assessments that take into account relevant international guidelines and scientific data, and are not more restrictive on trade than necessary to meet the intended purpose.”
The question is who decides which international guidelines and scientific data are safe and accurate? When the world’s leading cancer review agency recently declared glyphosate to probably a cancer causing pesticide, Monsanto demanded a retraction!
The Monsanto Kicker: Death to GMO Labeling and Pesticide Bans Around the World!
On page 9 of the Bipartisan Sellout agreement, it becomes very clear what the purpose of the trade agreement really is, claiming that its intent is to “eliminate practices that unfairly decrease”… “market access opportunities or distort agricultural markets to the detriment of the United States”.
Bans on GMOs and toxic pesticides will be challenged and most likely overturned in the secretive tribunal process under the Investor State Dispute Settlement provision.
On page 9 the White House and Congress Declares GMO Labeling is an “Unjustified Trade Restriction”:
(ii) unjustified trade restrictions or commercial requirements, such as labeling, that affect new technologies, including biotechnology.
(iii) unjustified…restrictions, including restrictions not based on scientific principles”
It’s no wonder the White House and the more than 600 corporate lobbyists who have written this deal behind closed doors for the past 5 years are so desperate to keep it secret. If the American people could read the text in full, there’d be a revolt and Monsanto and corporate America knows it.
Trust us, there’s more, but we could only fit so much in one email!
If you eat and care about GMO labeling and stopping Monsanto, Please make sure you forward this email to all your friends and family and make sure they call their Senators today!
Click here if you believe in GMO labeling and think that secret trade deals to kill common sense laws on genetically engineered crops should be stopped! Every voice counts!
