Australia Rejects UN "Socialism Masquerading as Environmentalism" - Agenda 21Posted: 2014-07-23 Arizona Freedom Alliance on July 20, 2014
[Editor: This is a hugely important move by Australia as it could spell the beginning of the end of Agenda 21 and the fraud known as "Global Warming" which, if implemented through carbon taxes will make Gore and Obama and their buddies incredibly wealthy men!]
The new Australian government, elected by a landslide on a platform opposing carbon taxes and global-warming schemes as United Nations climate theories were imploding, delivered a blunt message to UN alarmists this week: No more socialism masquerading as environmentalism. With the new conservative-leaning cabinet taking a stand against UN machinations and radical domestic restrictions imposed under the previous Labor Party government, Australian authorities also publicly refused to sign up for any new contributions, taxes, or charges at this weeks embattled UN global-warming summit in Poland.
Despite the tough talk by officials and the fact that global temperatures actually stopped rising 17 years ago debunking every one of the UNs climate models Australia is still ensnared in more than a few dubious international climate commitments. In a move supposedly aimed at stopping climate change, the nations previous rulers agreed to force Australians to drastically reduce their emissions of carbon dioxide a gas exhaled by all people and critical to life on Earth, which constitutes a mere fraction of one percent of all gases in the atmosphere.
According to an official document outlined in The Australian newspaper, the new government plans to remain a good international citizen and is still committed to achieving a 5 percent reduction in CO2 emissions by 2020. However, the document, reportedly produced after a cabinet meeting last week, noted that authorities will not agree to any international climate agreements that involve squandering more taxpayer money or levying taxes.
Australia will not support any measures which are socialism masquerading as environmentalism, the document also states. The new government, led by conservative-leaning Prime Minister Tony Abbott (shown), also explicitly declared that it would not make any payments or accept any liabilities as part of any potential new UN global warming agreement. That means Australia will refuse to play any role in a wealth transfer from rich countries to developing nations to pay them to decrease their carbon emissions, the paper reported.
With rulers of poor countries demanding $100 billion per year from taxpayers in wealthier nations to deal with alleged man-made climate change this week in Warsaw, the Australian decision represents a potentially major blow to the UN-led extortion effort. The new leadership also refused to send senior Australian officials Environment Minister Greg Hunt and Foreign Minister Julie Bishop to the ongoing UN summit. Predictably, climate alarmists and wealth redistributionists were up in arms. Analysts and commentators in Australia and other Western nations, however, celebrated the move.
Abbott has also spoken out forcefully on international schemes that involved extracting funds from taxpayers to buy permits from a scandal-plagued system supposedly aimed at cutting carbon emissions in foreign countries. According to news reports, the new Australian government blasted the policy based on official forecasts showing that the anti-emissions regime would eventually end up costing $150 billion per year. This is by far the biggest wealth transfer from Australians to foreigners that's ever been contemplated, Abbott was quoted as saying about the controversial scheme.
While the new government has not completely ruled out signing on to an international climate treaty, it did lay down some serious obstacles to foisting the scheme on Australians. For one, any new agreement would be considered only if all major global economies sign on as well a prospect that is seen as close to impossible. The U.S. Senate, for instance, is highly unlikely to agree to any such deal, not to mention the regime ruling mainland China. Any more greenhouse gases ploys will also be conditioned on fiscal circumstances, the government said.
On top of that, the official document highlighted in media reports said the new Australian leadership would review its positions in 2015 in light of the science and international developments, which analysts said could result in a range of policy outcomes. The document also pointed out, however, that if the alleged science underpinning UN global warming theories becomes even more questionable, Australia might also rein in its climate efforts even further. Indeed, the supposed science has already imploded with the complete failure of 73 out of 73 UN climate models.
