As I indicated in my rant about AOC’s chief of staff admitting that the GND isn’t about climate change, it’s about changing our economic system to socialism. I believe indicated that I had previously put up a rant on the old blog revealing that they have been admitting it for decades.

I couldn’t retrieve my previous rant but was able to locate the original source document. It was an article in Newsmax by Larry Bell in July of 2014. Here is the important quotes:

“Activist groups attending a Venezuela government-hosted, UN-backed environmental conference have made it clear that going green certainly isn’t about green market prosperity.
For that matter they don’t believe that it is about preserving green forests either, or about capping plant-nourishing carbon emissions for a greener planet in order to halt climate change.
Nope, the “Margarita Declaration” handed down by the 130 environmental ministers who attended the four-day July meeting called carbon markets a “false solution” to the problem of climate change and branded the UN’s forest conservation scheme “dangerous and unethical.”
Instead, the real solution is to cap and trade capitalism for socialism.
As agreed in a run-up to the UN’s main round of climate talks in Lima later this year, the blame was clear, “The structural causes of climate change are linked to the current hegemonic [capitalist] system … To combat climate change it is necessary to change the system.”
While it remains unclear which organizations actually signed on, those represented in the discussions reportedly include the World Wildlife Fund, CAN International, Third World Network, and Christian Aid.
UN-sponsored and supported attributions of climate crisis and other environmental ills to capitalism are hardly something new. Dating back two decades ago to the 1992 Rio de Janeiro Earth Climate Summit which codified the UN’s central theme for the famous (or infamous) Kyoto Protocol, its chairman Maurice Strong suggested, “We may get to the point where the only way of saving the world will be for industrialized civilization to collapse. Isn’t it our job to bring that about?”
Addressing the same Rio audience, former U.S. Senator Timothy Wirth, D-Colo. then representing the Clinton-Gore administration as U.S. undersecretary of state for global issues agreed, “We have got to ride the global warming issue. Even if the theory of global warming is wrong, we will be doing the right thing in terms of economic policy and environmental policy.”
Wirth now heads the UN Foundation which lobbies for hundreds of billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to help underdeveloped countries fight climate change.
As UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) official Ottmar Edenhofer admitted in November 2010, “One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. Instead, climate change policy is about how we redistribute de facto the world’s wealth.”
Former Canadian Minister of the Environment Christine Stewart harbored no such illusion. In 1988, she told editors and reporters of the Calgary Herald, “No matter if the science of global warming is all phony … climate change [provides] the greatest opportunity to bring about justice and equality in the world.””

It’s always been about finding something to scare you into turning everything over to a worldwide socialist government under the U.N.

I’m working on recreating my original rant on global warming and updating it. It should be up in a couple of days.
