Social engineering under the guise of environmentalism
This one, interestingly, comes not from Rossa but from her mother:
A controversial peer-reviewed paper set to be published next month, authored by a dozen prominent scientists and other experts, is coming under heavy criticism, primarily for calling on policymakers to adopt draconian measures to change social norms and values through coercion — essentially mass social engineering under the guise of environmentalism, whether the public wants it or not. The dubious plan outlined by the academics, however, is already being blasted by analysts as a scheme to erect an “eco-dictatorship under United Nations rule.”
Indeed, a draft version of the paper, scheduled to be published in the March 2013 edition of the American Institute of Biological Sciences’ journal BioScience, openly calls for defying public opinion and restructuring society under the guidance of UN “teams.” Entitled “Social Norms and Global Environmental Challenges: The Complex Interaction of Behaviors, Values, and Policy,” the controversial document is uncharacteristically honest in outlining its wild recommendations to transform human civilization.
“Substantial numbers of people will have to alter their existing behaviors to address this new class of global environmental problems,” claim the authors, who include Nobel Prize winners and even the infamous but largely discredited biologist and “population bomb” alarmist Paul Ehrlich (shown above). “Alternative approaches are needed when education and persuasion alone are insufficient.”
In simpler terms, the self-styled arbiters of proper environmental stewardship and human values are seeking to use the force of government — without the consent of the governed, if need be — to radically change people’s thoughts and behavior. If taxpayer-funded propaganda and brainwashing fail to convince enough of the public to submit, coercion in the form of new rules, regulations, fines, and other policies will be needed, the authors claim.
Combine that with the story of Tim Yeo and this is the story of the two thousand and teen years – one of the greatest crimes perpetrated against the ordinary person in half a century.

Well, who could have seen that coming? Well me, and a few others actually.
Another good analysis from this generally sound blog but what are we to do?
I find that there are plenty of commentators who have an accurate view on what is happening. Even Spivey has nailed it up to a point.
Less forthcoming is the answer, unless of course you want to sign up for a lightworker induction. Please dont.
There is some consolation if Ehrlich is one of the authors. Widely regarded as mad as a box of frogs, I’m not so sure that even UN bureaucrats will want their names linked to his.
These social engineering trends are certainly being pushed forward, but in my view Ehrlich’s input isn’t likely to help their agenda.

If their attempts to ban smoking, reduce drinking alcohol and stop speeding drivers is anything to go by they won’t even get out of the starting gate.
Until They can mind control every human on the planet it ain’t going to happen!

Rossa, it’s surely different from smoking and drinking. If they cut down supply of utilities like electricity and water, what would yo be able to do? How much can you afford to pay?
GS, that’s why I’ve already taken steps to get away from utilities by getting off grid as much as possible. Water capture and filtration and I’m involved with new technology which generates heating, hot water and electricity.
With 5 of the UK’s power stations shutting down from this month under the EU’s large combustion plant directive, those of us who have been aware of it since ’06 have taken steps to mitigate the impact as much as we can. Then they can ration all they like.
