1 00:00:09,133 --> 00:00:12,013 Speaker 1: You're listening to a podcast from News Talks ed B. 2 00:00:12,413 --> 00:00:16,213 Speaker 1: Follow this and our wide range of podcast now on iHeartRadio. 3 00:00:16,813 --> 00:00:19,813 Speaker 1: It's time for all the attitude, all the opinion, all 4 00:00:19,853 --> 00:00:24,933 Speaker 1: the information, all the debates of us Now the lighton 5 00:00:25,053 --> 00:00:27,733 Speaker 1: Smith podcast cowed by News Talks ed B. 6 00:00:28,173 --> 00:00:31,973 Speaker 2: Welcome to the podcast for June twenty six, twenty twenty four. Regretfully, 7 00:00:32,133 --> 00:00:35,093 Speaker 2: I'm not able to offer a fresh podcast, so we're 8 00:00:35,893 --> 00:00:38,973 Speaker 2: replacing it with one of the best from the archives. 9 00:00:39,253 --> 00:00:43,173 Speaker 2: Undeciding which episode, I received an email that made a 10 00:00:43,173 --> 00:00:46,413 Speaker 2: suggestion referring to episode twenty one. That was the first 11 00:00:46,453 --> 00:00:49,533 Speaker 2: interview that I did with Professor Timball. The author thought 12 00:00:49,693 --> 00:00:53,733 Speaker 2: it was the best. However, three months later, on the 13 00:00:53,773 --> 00:00:57,333 Speaker 2: eleventh of September, we did a second Timball interview on 14 00:00:57,373 --> 00:01:01,493 Speaker 2: the politics behind climate change, which started with an announcement 15 00:01:01,933 --> 00:01:05,213 Speaker 2: on the Man versus Ball court case. I've listened to 16 00:01:05,213 --> 00:01:09,173 Speaker 2: some of it again and it really is worth another airring. 17 00:01:09,973 --> 00:01:12,013 Speaker 2: And it's interesting also to keep in mind that this 18 00:01:12,093 --> 00:01:17,693 Speaker 2: is pre COVID. This is September eleven of twenty nineteen. 19 00:01:17,973 --> 00:01:21,053 Speaker 2: I think of the way the world has changed since then. Anyway, 20 00:01:21,093 --> 00:01:24,533 Speaker 2: I hope you enjoy and hopefully we'll be back with 21 00:01:24,613 --> 00:01:28,293 Speaker 2: a full podcast next week. Just keep in mind that 22 00:01:28,333 --> 00:01:31,533 Speaker 2: this is all dated material and you must take that 23 00:01:31,573 --> 00:01:41,413 Speaker 2: into account. Now. It was a few weeks ago. In fact, 24 00:01:41,453 --> 00:01:45,893 Speaker 2: it was it was number twenty one podcast where we 25 00:01:45,933 --> 00:01:49,373 Speaker 2: spent the entire podcast talking to doctor Tim Ball, climatologist 26 00:01:49,733 --> 00:01:52,893 Speaker 2: from Canada, and we arranged that we would have a 27 00:01:52,933 --> 00:01:55,093 Speaker 2: second discussion. I was going to leave it till later 28 00:01:55,133 --> 00:01:59,293 Speaker 2: in the year, but events have turned and the coincidence 29 00:01:59,653 --> 00:02:04,093 Speaker 2: is beautiful because I arranged this with him about two 30 00:02:04,253 --> 00:02:11,893 Speaker 2: days unknowingly, two days before the Supreme Court in Canada 31 00:02:12,493 --> 00:02:16,893 Speaker 2: announced the result of the court case between where Michael 32 00:02:17,013 --> 00:02:27,253 Speaker 2: Mann was suing Timbull, and the result was doctor Timbull won. Well, yes, 33 00:02:28,053 --> 00:02:31,813 Speaker 2: so that's all right, So tell me how you're feeling. 34 00:02:33,373 --> 00:02:38,053 Speaker 3: Well, I did not expect this outcome. I've dealt with 35 00:02:38,173 --> 00:02:41,173 Speaker 3: the you know, the illegal system, and this is what 36 00:02:41,213 --> 00:02:43,893 Speaker 3: bothers me about it. First of all, the use of 37 00:02:43,933 --> 00:02:47,773 Speaker 3: the legal system to silence people, because that's clearly what 38 00:02:47,853 --> 00:02:50,893 Speaker 3: happened in my case. I had I had three lawsuits, 39 00:02:50,893 --> 00:02:53,373 Speaker 3: all from the same lawyer and all by members of 40 00:02:53,413 --> 00:02:57,493 Speaker 3: the IPCC. So I thought that somebody would get to 41 00:02:57,613 --> 00:03:01,693 Speaker 3: the judge. So I am, I'm amazed at the result 42 00:03:01,773 --> 00:03:05,413 Speaker 3: were this complete dismissal is more than I could ever 43 00:03:05,493 --> 00:03:11,853 Speaker 3: have dreamed about. So I'm revitalized and hopeful again for 44 00:03:11,893 --> 00:03:14,933 Speaker 3: the legal system. So there's that that part of it. 45 00:03:15,373 --> 00:03:18,373 Speaker 3: Of course, then, because I didn't expect the result that 46 00:03:18,453 --> 00:03:21,533 Speaker 3: I that I got, I really haven't given a lot 47 00:03:21,573 --> 00:03:24,613 Speaker 3: of thought to where do we go from here? Because 48 00:03:25,533 --> 00:03:31,973 Speaker 3: what what the courts have essentially put into legal words 49 00:03:32,573 --> 00:03:35,853 Speaker 3: is that the whole climate thing is a deception. And 50 00:03:35,893 --> 00:03:39,013 Speaker 3: so the challenge now for me is to get that 51 00:03:39,133 --> 00:03:42,453 Speaker 3: out to the world and explain to the world, partly 52 00:03:42,453 --> 00:03:45,133 Speaker 3: as we did in the last program, who did it, 53 00:03:45,173 --> 00:03:47,573 Speaker 3: why did they do it, and how did they do it? 54 00:03:47,813 --> 00:03:51,693 Speaker 2: Well, let us get onto that shortly. I'm I'm, I 55 00:03:51,773 --> 00:03:55,133 Speaker 2: just want to venture forth a little more on the 56 00:03:55,253 --> 00:03:59,493 Speaker 2: legal aspect of it. See, my grasp has been that 57 00:03:59,533 --> 00:04:02,853 Speaker 2: the courts are no place to be sorting out science, 58 00:04:04,493 --> 00:04:07,573 Speaker 2: and there's been a couple of examples of why why 59 00:04:07,653 --> 00:04:12,093 Speaker 2: that is. But in this case, this was a legal 60 00:04:12,173 --> 00:04:17,093 Speaker 2: meta of defamation. And you want it, and this is 61 00:04:17,133 --> 00:04:19,933 Speaker 2: the second one you've won. I take it. Then there's 62 00:04:19,933 --> 00:04:21,133 Speaker 2: another one hanging. 63 00:04:21,933 --> 00:04:25,973 Speaker 3: Well. The other one was actually the first one. And 64 00:04:26,413 --> 00:04:30,693 Speaker 3: this is another important part about this whole story. I 65 00:04:31,133 --> 00:04:33,853 Speaker 3: got the summons, and my wife and I looked at it, 66 00:04:33,893 --> 00:04:37,093 Speaker 3: and we contacted a lawyer and discovered what it would 67 00:04:37,093 --> 00:04:40,013 Speaker 3: cost us to defend ourselves and said we can't afford it. 68 00:04:40,653 --> 00:04:43,213 Speaker 3: We just simply couldn't afford it. And this is a 69 00:04:43,453 --> 00:04:46,093 Speaker 3: This is a major, major part of what is going 70 00:04:46,093 --> 00:04:48,813 Speaker 3: on in every country in the world, that the legal 71 00:04:48,893 --> 00:04:51,653 Speaker 3: system is beyond the reach of all but the wealthy. 72 00:04:52,333 --> 00:04:56,173 Speaker 3: Now in Britain, for example, about a year ago, they 73 00:04:56,293 --> 00:05:00,573 Speaker 3: passed some legislation saying that no laws should be brought 74 00:05:00,613 --> 00:05:05,013 Speaker 3: simply because you can afford to and and have access 75 00:05:05,053 --> 00:05:09,413 Speaker 3: to legal systems. So this is an the major part 76 00:05:09,453 --> 00:05:13,053 Speaker 3: of this whole story. My legal bills now are are 77 00:05:13,333 --> 00:05:16,453 Speaker 3: up over eight hundred thousand dollars, and yet I'm not 78 00:05:16,533 --> 00:05:17,573 Speaker 3: even halfway through. 79 00:05:18,253 --> 00:05:19,933 Speaker 2: So there is another case. 80 00:05:21,133 --> 00:05:26,933 Speaker 3: Well, the first case was we decided not to fight it, Okay, 81 00:05:27,053 --> 00:05:31,453 Speaker 3: The second case we won. That was brought by the 82 00:05:31,573 --> 00:05:34,853 Speaker 3: now leader of the Green Party here in British Columbia, 83 00:05:35,453 --> 00:05:39,213 Speaker 3: and he's now appealing that. So of course, just because 84 00:05:39,213 --> 00:05:43,013 Speaker 3: you win the first the case, you're always going to 85 00:05:43,093 --> 00:05:46,453 Speaker 3: have appeals and that that gets just as expensive as 86 00:05:46,493 --> 00:05:51,813 Speaker 3: the court cases. So I'm that that appeal will be 87 00:05:51,893 --> 00:05:57,373 Speaker 3: held here in British Columbia in December of this year. 88 00:05:58,973 --> 00:06:04,533 Speaker 2: Okay, so this this case that's just been decided. Yeah, 89 00:06:04,773 --> 00:06:09,093 Speaker 2: I'm involving Michael Mann. That's the end of it. No, 90 00:06:09,453 --> 00:06:11,013 Speaker 2: as I said, it's. 91 00:06:10,853 --> 00:06:12,773 Speaker 3: The end of the of the of the case and 92 00:06:12,813 --> 00:06:15,853 Speaker 3: the and the verdict of this court. But he can 93 00:06:15,933 --> 00:06:20,573 Speaker 3: now appeal that verdict and almost certainly will will appeal it. 94 00:06:20,613 --> 00:06:23,293 Speaker 2: But this was this was in the Supreme Court. 95 00:06:24,093 --> 00:06:26,173 Speaker 3: Was in the British Columbia Supreme Court. 96 00:06:26,253 --> 00:06:30,253 Speaker 2: Yes, so he would appeal to well. 97 00:06:30,093 --> 00:06:33,773 Speaker 3: He appeals to to that precis Supreme Court and then 98 00:06:33,813 --> 00:06:37,973 Speaker 3: if he doesn't feel he's got just uh just a 99 00:06:38,013 --> 00:06:40,813 Speaker 3: reward there, he can then appeal it to the Supreme 100 00:06:40,813 --> 00:06:41,613 Speaker 3: Court of Canada. 101 00:06:42,733 --> 00:06:44,653 Speaker 2: How long How long has he got to do that? 102 00:06:45,813 --> 00:06:48,253 Speaker 3: Well, there's there's really no time limit on it. That's 103 00:06:48,333 --> 00:06:51,293 Speaker 3: that's part of the problem, that that these things can 104 00:06:51,333 --> 00:06:52,053 Speaker 3: go on forever. 105 00:06:52,653 --> 00:06:55,013 Speaker 2: Well, I've noticed that I noticed that some people have 106 00:06:55,133 --> 00:07:00,253 Speaker 2: been commenting on on missage sites good luck with getting 107 00:07:00,293 --> 00:07:01,893 Speaker 2: the money out of him for your cost? 108 00:07:02,973 --> 00:07:05,973 Speaker 3: Yes, well, and of course that that was my concern, 109 00:07:07,093 --> 00:07:11,333 Speaker 3: and my low players tell me that the courts in 110 00:07:11,373 --> 00:07:16,013 Speaker 3: Canada and British Columbia especially don't like get in fact 111 00:07:16,133 --> 00:07:22,093 Speaker 3: take very angrily anybody that fails to pay or front 112 00:07:22,173 --> 00:07:25,013 Speaker 3: up with the money. And so what I can do 113 00:07:25,733 --> 00:07:30,533 Speaker 3: and my lawyers we've already discussed this. We can go 114 00:07:30,613 --> 00:07:32,613 Speaker 3: to the courts and say we want the money, and 115 00:07:32,653 --> 00:07:36,253 Speaker 3: the courts can turn around and garnish you their business, 116 00:07:36,293 --> 00:07:39,253 Speaker 3: their homes, whatever is necessary to get the money. 117 00:07:39,293 --> 00:07:43,373 Speaker 2: Okay, But Michael Mann is an American in America. What 118 00:07:43,613 --> 00:07:45,493 Speaker 2: is the cross border policy? 119 00:07:46,213 --> 00:07:49,773 Speaker 3: Well, that's going to be the major part of it. Now. 120 00:07:49,773 --> 00:07:54,373 Speaker 3: There are very very good cross border rules in place, 121 00:07:55,013 --> 00:08:01,173 Speaker 3: but actually enforcing it is another whole different matter. And 122 00:08:01,493 --> 00:08:04,053 Speaker 3: I don't know. I can't answer your question. 123 00:08:04,213 --> 00:08:07,573 Speaker 2: Okay, Then back to what you said about what the 124 00:08:07,613 --> 00:08:14,333 Speaker 2: court said about the climate change issue itself. Yes, what 125 00:08:14,413 --> 00:08:15,053 Speaker 2: did they say? 126 00:08:15,933 --> 00:08:20,693 Speaker 3: Well, the court ruling specifically doesn't say it, but it 127 00:08:20,853 --> 00:08:24,333 Speaker 3: infers it because you see, the lawsuit was that Michael 128 00:08:24,373 --> 00:08:29,133 Speaker 3: Man had produced this hockey stick, this complete falsification of 129 00:08:29,253 --> 00:08:35,573 Speaker 3: data and rewriting of climate history. And I spoke out 130 00:08:35,613 --> 00:08:37,973 Speaker 3: about that. I gave a lecture in Winnipeg about that, 131 00:08:38,173 --> 00:08:40,693 Speaker 3: and within hours of the lecture I got the lawsuit. 132 00:08:41,373 --> 00:08:46,053 Speaker 3: And so basically what it was saying was, Michael Mann 133 00:08:46,213 --> 00:08:49,693 Speaker 3: has presented the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change view of 134 00:08:49,733 --> 00:08:54,613 Speaker 3: climate and I'm saying it it's not true, it's not correct, 135 00:08:54,653 --> 00:08:59,173 Speaker 3: it's not scientifically accurate. And so that's essentially what the 136 00:08:59,253 --> 00:09:02,853 Speaker 3: lawsuit was about. So it wasn't directly about that, but 137 00:09:02,933 --> 00:09:07,893 Speaker 3: it was about this. It was framed in legal terms 138 00:09:07,733 --> 00:09:13,413 Speaker 3: as defamatory comments by me about him. But the actually 139 00:09:13,453 --> 00:09:16,453 Speaker 3: the actual result is that the courts have said, no, 140 00:09:16,893 --> 00:09:19,213 Speaker 3: what I said is correct and what he said is wrong, 141 00:09:19,733 --> 00:09:22,333 Speaker 3: so therefore scientifically that also applies. 142 00:09:23,213 --> 00:09:25,493 Speaker 2: Well, I think that's fabulous. But the sadness is, of 143 00:09:25,493 --> 00:09:28,853 Speaker 2: course that this could roll on. It'll be very interesting 144 00:09:28,973 --> 00:09:34,373 Speaker 2: to see. Having been punished what sounds like severely, one 145 00:09:34,373 --> 00:09:40,213 Speaker 2: would hope that he will, shall we say, discontinue. Now 146 00:09:40,413 --> 00:09:43,533 Speaker 2: there's one other thing. Very quickly. You were very recently 147 00:09:44,253 --> 00:09:50,093 Speaker 2: awarded an award for, if I remember correctly, your lifetime 148 00:09:50,173 --> 00:09:56,053 Speaker 2: service to climate climate science. Yes, congratulations, thank you. 149 00:09:56,333 --> 00:09:59,853 Speaker 3: This was by the Heartland Institute, which is based in Chicago, 150 00:10:00,613 --> 00:10:03,133 Speaker 3: and one of the things that's been the problem over 151 00:10:03,173 --> 00:10:08,093 Speaker 3: the years is that virtually all of the funding, particularly 152 00:10:08,093 --> 00:10:12,013 Speaker 3: go funding, has gone to one side of the climate debate, 153 00:10:12,693 --> 00:10:16,853 Speaker 3: and it has all gone to promoting those that say 154 00:10:16,893 --> 00:10:19,373 Speaker 3: that it's human cause and it's co two cause and 155 00:10:19,413 --> 00:10:25,013 Speaker 3: so on. So unlike in other words, the government and 156 00:10:25,053 --> 00:10:30,453 Speaker 3: the funding completely interfered with the scientific method. As you know, 157 00:10:30,573 --> 00:10:34,573 Speaker 3: the scientific method is that you create a hypothesis based 158 00:10:34,613 --> 00:10:39,493 Speaker 3: on assumptions and then other scientists challenge not the hypothesis 159 00:10:39,493 --> 00:10:44,093 Speaker 3: but the assumptions on which it is based. Well, anybody 160 00:10:44,093 --> 00:10:46,533 Speaker 3: that tried to do that couldn't get any funding to 161 00:10:46,573 --> 00:10:49,293 Speaker 3: do that, and all the funding went to people that 162 00:10:49,333 --> 00:10:54,693 Speaker 3: were supporting the assumptions and the hypothesis. So in other words, 163 00:10:55,173 --> 00:11:01,573 Speaker 3: with government, you had government interfering with the proper scientific method. 164 00:11:02,293 --> 00:11:06,253 Speaker 3: And that's a serious problem in science and in the world. 165 00:11:07,013 --> 00:11:10,693 Speaker 3: And so this is why this this what's going on 166 00:11:10,733 --> 00:11:15,133 Speaker 3: here in climate is so critical now. Joeannova the Australian 167 00:11:15,173 --> 00:11:18,013 Speaker 3: did a study of a couple of years ago about 168 00:11:18,093 --> 00:11:21,653 Speaker 3: the amount of money that was being put by governments 169 00:11:21,733 --> 00:11:25,013 Speaker 3: and virtually all of the funding comes from governments into 170 00:11:25,613 --> 00:11:29,933 Speaker 3: the climate, you know, proving that humans are causing climate change. 171 00:11:30,373 --> 00:11:33,493 Speaker 3: And I say not even one percent going to the 172 00:11:33,533 --> 00:11:36,533 Speaker 3: other side of the issue. And the figure she came 173 00:11:36,613 --> 00:11:39,013 Speaker 3: up with was for the US in one year alone, 174 00:11:39,093 --> 00:11:45,973 Speaker 3: it was seventy billion dollars. So of course, yeah, well 175 00:11:46,813 --> 00:11:49,253 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say what you know, it's okay. But what 176 00:11:49,293 --> 00:11:51,173 Speaker 3: the point about it is is not only is that 177 00:11:51,253 --> 00:11:53,773 Speaker 3: only driving one side of the issue, but is of 178 00:11:53,813 --> 00:11:56,573 Speaker 3: course what all of the young researchers are looking for 179 00:11:56,653 --> 00:11:59,333 Speaker 3: research funding. That's what they're going to do. They're going 180 00:11:59,373 --> 00:12:01,213 Speaker 3: to go in and say, well, I'll do research on 181 00:12:01,253 --> 00:12:04,053 Speaker 3: this because that guarantees me the money from the government. 182 00:12:04,613 --> 00:12:09,493 Speaker 3: That of course is a distort science in completely unacceptable ways. 183 00:12:10,093 --> 00:12:12,973 Speaker 2: I want to read you an email that I got. 184 00:12:13,013 --> 00:12:16,533 Speaker 2: I got a lot of emails from the previous interview 185 00:12:16,573 --> 00:12:19,013 Speaker 2: that we did this one. I want to read you 186 00:12:19,133 --> 00:12:21,413 Speaker 2: and get you to respond and it will lead on 187 00:12:21,533 --> 00:12:23,853 Speaker 2: to where we go from here. But there'll be a 188 00:12:23,893 --> 00:12:29,093 Speaker 2: bit of crossover validation along the way. And the author says, 189 00:12:29,133 --> 00:12:31,533 Speaker 2: I finally got round to listening to the Tim Ball special. 190 00:12:32,493 --> 00:12:35,573 Speaker 2: It was very good and following on from the well 191 00:12:35,573 --> 00:12:39,613 Speaker 2: the excellent David Shelley interview, I will order Tim Ball's 192 00:12:39,693 --> 00:12:43,773 Speaker 2: Human Caused Global Warming Scam pocketbook for my kindle, So 193 00:12:43,853 --> 00:12:49,053 Speaker 2: well done. What you discussed with Timball next, the politics 194 00:12:49,093 --> 00:12:52,413 Speaker 2: behind the disinformation and the reasons for it is what 195 00:12:52,533 --> 00:12:56,173 Speaker 2: I've always struggled with, because why would everyone sign up 196 00:12:56,213 --> 00:13:00,733 Speaker 2: to this lie, including so many respected scientists. I look 197 00:13:00,813 --> 00:13:03,693 Speaker 2: forward make it soon. So what's the answer. 198 00:13:04,013 --> 00:13:08,453 Speaker 3: In short, Well, the answer is that this was a 199 00:13:08,453 --> 00:13:14,133 Speaker 3: a plan that needed a threat to the globe, and 200 00:13:15,053 --> 00:13:18,453 Speaker 3: therefore global warming became the target by the Club of Rome, 201 00:13:18,813 --> 00:13:23,333 Speaker 3: which was formed in nineteen sixty eight. And what they 202 00:13:23,373 --> 00:13:27,133 Speaker 3: wanted to do was their argument was that the world 203 00:13:27,213 --> 00:13:32,413 Speaker 3: was overpopulated. Each individual person was using resources at a 204 00:13:32,413 --> 00:13:36,173 Speaker 3: certain amount, and if you multiply the number of people 205 00:13:36,213 --> 00:13:40,293 Speaker 3: by the amount of resources they were using, that was unsustainable. 206 00:13:40,333 --> 00:13:43,053 Speaker 3: The world could not sustain that level of demand on 207 00:13:43,133 --> 00:13:47,093 Speaker 3: its resources, and that's where the word unsustainability came in. 208 00:13:47,733 --> 00:13:51,533 Speaker 3: And so what they decided was that they had to 209 00:13:51,573 --> 00:13:55,493 Speaker 3: get some way to shut down industry or limit industry. 210 00:13:56,133 --> 00:13:58,693 Speaker 3: So they looked at it and they said, okay, if 211 00:13:58,733 --> 00:14:01,373 Speaker 3: we cut off the fuel going into the plant or 212 00:14:01,413 --> 00:14:05,493 Speaker 3: into the city, then the public would screen right away. 213 00:14:05,573 --> 00:14:09,533 Speaker 3: That would not be politically possible. And so what they 214 00:14:09,573 --> 00:14:13,093 Speaker 3: decided to do was to show that the byproduct of 215 00:14:13,133 --> 00:14:17,453 Speaker 3: the industry and the industrialized nations was CO two and 216 00:14:17,493 --> 00:14:21,293 Speaker 3: that that CO two was causing runaway global warming. Therefore 217 00:14:21,333 --> 00:14:27,093 Speaker 3: that was a reason for targeting CO two and therefore 218 00:14:27,293 --> 00:14:31,933 Speaker 3: achieving their goal of shutting down the industry. So yeah, 219 00:14:31,453 --> 00:14:35,813 Speaker 3: the email speaks right to the issue why did they 220 00:14:35,853 --> 00:14:37,733 Speaker 3: do it? What was the motive? And of course that's 221 00:14:37,733 --> 00:14:40,333 Speaker 3: what I tried to explain in the book. What was 222 00:14:40,373 --> 00:14:44,373 Speaker 3: the political motive behind it? And the answer was overpopulation, 223 00:14:45,173 --> 00:14:50,573 Speaker 3: exhaustion of resources, and shutting down the industrialized nations. 224 00:14:50,213 --> 00:14:52,333 Speaker 2: In the book. Very early in the book, you listened 225 00:14:52,413 --> 00:14:55,613 Speaker 2: nine points. I want to run through those nine points. Yeah, 226 00:14:55,693 --> 00:14:57,933 Speaker 2: and that'll cover off a lot more of the answer 227 00:14:58,013 --> 00:15:01,373 Speaker 2: to that particular question. But before we do, just with 228 00:15:01,493 --> 00:15:07,493 Speaker 2: regard to the number of scientists of profile, shall we say, 229 00:15:07,573 --> 00:15:10,093 Speaker 2: or they've gained from file through this, whichever you want, 230 00:15:10,333 --> 00:15:14,213 Speaker 2: but top scientists. The author of that email was asking 231 00:15:14,773 --> 00:15:17,613 Speaker 2: why would they sign up to this? And then the 232 00:15:18,013 --> 00:15:20,373 Speaker 2: part of that question then is who are they that 233 00:15:20,453 --> 00:15:22,973 Speaker 2: you referred to who put all this in motion? 234 00:15:24,893 --> 00:15:28,573 Speaker 3: Well, of course, as I mentioned in my previous answer, 235 00:15:28,693 --> 00:15:31,813 Speaker 3: the Club of Rome, which was formed by David Rockefeller 236 00:15:31,853 --> 00:15:36,613 Speaker 3: in nineteen sixty eight, decided that the world was overpopulated 237 00:15:36,693 --> 00:15:41,653 Speaker 3: and that the population was exhausting the resources of the planet. 238 00:15:42,013 --> 00:15:49,053 Speaker 3: So they decided that they could not reduce the resource 239 00:15:49,173 --> 00:15:53,533 Speaker 3: use by everybody, so they focused upon the ones that 240 00:15:53,573 --> 00:15:56,733 Speaker 3: were using more resources than anyone else, and that was 241 00:15:56,773 --> 00:16:00,613 Speaker 3: the industrialized nations. And so they said that these industrialized 242 00:16:00,653 --> 00:16:08,093 Speaker 3: nations like America, Britain and Australians on achieved their exhaustion 243 00:16:08,173 --> 00:16:13,093 Speaker 3: of resources and their wealth by through using fossil fuels, 244 00:16:13,653 --> 00:16:18,933 Speaker 3: and therefore that that became became the target. And so 245 00:16:19,173 --> 00:16:22,893 Speaker 3: that's really the answer to the question. So what they 246 00:16:22,893 --> 00:16:27,853 Speaker 3: did was then they deliberately created science that focused upon 247 00:16:28,133 --> 00:16:32,333 Speaker 3: only CO two. So, for example, when they set up 248 00:16:32,373 --> 00:16:36,053 Speaker 3: the inter Governmental Panel on Climate Change through the United Nations, 249 00:16:36,053 --> 00:16:41,853 Speaker 3: they being marcu Strong who was the founder of the 250 00:16:41,933 --> 00:16:45,533 Speaker 3: United Nations Environment Program and was a member of the 251 00:16:45,573 --> 00:16:50,853 Speaker 3: Club of Rome and was the person that orchestrated Agenda 252 00:16:50,933 --> 00:16:54,933 Speaker 3: twenty one, which is this whole thing is incorporated within 253 00:16:55,013 --> 00:16:59,093 Speaker 3: Agenda twenty one. But when they set up the climate 254 00:16:59,733 --> 00:17:02,813 Speaker 3: research that they they did it to get the results 255 00:17:02,853 --> 00:17:08,253 Speaker 3: that they wanted. So for example, when the United Nations 256 00:17:08,413 --> 00:17:10,013 Speaker 3: has come out and they're going to come out with 257 00:17:10,053 --> 00:17:13,493 Speaker 3: one very shortly. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change are 258 00:17:13,533 --> 00:17:15,373 Speaker 3: going to come out very shortly and say oh, and 259 00:17:15,413 --> 00:17:18,173 Speaker 3: all the seal too, and that the temperature is going 260 00:17:18,333 --> 00:17:21,253 Speaker 3: going up and it's getting worse. The reason for that 261 00:17:21,533 --> 00:17:26,413 Speaker 3: is they do not look at natural causes of climate change. 262 00:17:27,853 --> 00:17:29,853 Speaker 3: One of the one of the things that I learned 263 00:17:29,973 --> 00:17:33,173 Speaker 3: very early in my career of sitting on commissions of 264 00:17:33,213 --> 00:17:37,613 Speaker 3: inquiry of giving evidence at trials on environmental issues is 265 00:17:37,653 --> 00:17:42,573 Speaker 3: the way that the government control is by appearing not 266 00:17:42,653 --> 00:17:45,813 Speaker 3: to control. I used to think that a commission of 267 00:17:45,853 --> 00:17:49,333 Speaker 3: inquiry was a superb thing because you know, everybody says, oh, good, 268 00:17:49,413 --> 00:17:51,893 Speaker 3: finally we get the politics out of the use out 269 00:17:51,933 --> 00:17:54,533 Speaker 3: of the issue. But what happens is and I this 270 00:17:54,653 --> 00:17:57,693 Speaker 3: this very The very first case I was on was 271 00:17:57,733 --> 00:18:01,613 Speaker 3: dispute over a large lake in central Canada, and that 272 00:18:01,733 --> 00:18:03,413 Speaker 3: the minister come out and said, oh, we'll have a 273 00:18:03,413 --> 00:18:06,973 Speaker 3: commission of inquiry, and I thought, fabulous. He goes back 274 00:18:07,053 --> 00:18:10,453 Speaker 3: to his office with the bureaucrats and they say, okay, 275 00:18:11,213 --> 00:18:13,973 Speaker 3: who do we put on this commission of inquiry? And 276 00:18:14,013 --> 00:18:16,573 Speaker 3: then what terms of reference do we give them that 277 00:18:16,653 --> 00:18:20,893 Speaker 3: predetermines the outcome of that Commission of Inquiry, and that's 278 00:18:20,933 --> 00:18:24,773 Speaker 3: exactly what happened. And so that I was asked by 279 00:18:24,813 --> 00:18:27,013 Speaker 3: the Minister, what would you serve on the Commission of Inquiry? 280 00:18:27,013 --> 00:18:29,893 Speaker 3: And I said yes, and then they got the terms 281 00:18:29,933 --> 00:18:32,813 Speaker 3: of reference and I said, I can't. I can't serve 282 00:18:32,853 --> 00:18:36,973 Speaker 3: on this. With these terms of reference, you're absolutely predetermining 283 00:18:37,013 --> 00:18:40,213 Speaker 3: the outcome. Now, either you allowed me to look and 284 00:18:40,453 --> 00:18:42,973 Speaker 3: look at every bit of data and every bit of 285 00:18:43,013 --> 00:18:45,653 Speaker 3: the problem, or I'm going to go to the media 286 00:18:45,693 --> 00:18:48,493 Speaker 3: and say the Minister is trying to predetermine the outcome 287 00:18:48,853 --> 00:18:51,853 Speaker 3: if you look at any commission of inquiry. And I 288 00:18:52,253 --> 00:18:55,733 Speaker 3: remember watching the most famous one, the inquiry into the 289 00:18:56,373 --> 00:19:00,493 Speaker 3: Kennedy assassination, the Warrant Commission and Chiefs just as Warren 290 00:19:00,613 --> 00:19:03,973 Speaker 3: was on ABC shortly before he died, and they and 291 00:19:04,413 --> 00:19:07,133 Speaker 3: the interviewer said to him, well, why didn't you look 292 00:19:07,173 --> 00:19:12,733 Speaker 3: at Jack and the mafia connection in Dallas? And Warrens' 293 00:19:12,733 --> 00:19:16,213 Speaker 3: is very straight, faith, very calmly and correctly said it 294 00:19:16,293 --> 00:19:19,733 Speaker 3: wasn't in my terms of reference, all right, And so 295 00:19:19,813 --> 00:19:22,453 Speaker 3: I as soon as I heard that, I knew exactly 296 00:19:22,493 --> 00:19:25,413 Speaker 3: what he was saying. But the public that goes right 297 00:19:25,453 --> 00:19:28,253 Speaker 3: over the public's head. And so of course they said, oh, 298 00:19:28,293 --> 00:19:31,013 Speaker 3: there was a commission inquiry, therefore they looked at everything. No, 299 00:19:31,133 --> 00:19:34,693 Speaker 3: they didn't. The Inner Governmental Panel on Climate Change, the 300 00:19:34,813 --> 00:19:38,453 Speaker 3: terms of reference they were given gave them a definition 301 00:19:38,573 --> 00:19:42,133 Speaker 3: of climate change that ordered them only to look at 302 00:19:42,213 --> 00:19:46,813 Speaker 3: human causes of climate change. So everybody thinks that there 303 00:19:46,853 --> 00:19:50,573 Speaker 3: this UN's reports that's coming out shortly, it's looking at 304 00:19:50,613 --> 00:19:53,653 Speaker 3: all of climate change. It isn't. It's only looking at 305 00:19:53,933 --> 00:19:57,653 Speaker 3: human causes. So they don't consider the sun, they don't 306 00:19:57,693 --> 00:20:02,533 Speaker 3: consider the oceans. They only look at that portion of 307 00:20:02,653 --> 00:20:06,573 Speaker 3: CO two that comes from human sources. That's that's how 308 00:20:06,693 --> 00:20:10,653 Speaker 3: narrow and contry. 309 00:20:09,373 --> 00:20:13,533 Speaker 2: Tim the the I have to throw this in and 310 00:20:13,573 --> 00:20:17,053 Speaker 2: you'll understand why. But the way you've dealt with this 311 00:20:17,693 --> 00:20:21,373 Speaker 2: with the Club of Rome and Morris Strong, et cetera, 312 00:20:21,413 --> 00:20:25,093 Speaker 2: et cetera. The way to shut you down, at least 313 00:20:25,093 --> 00:20:31,373 Speaker 2: initially is you must be you must be you, you 314 00:20:31,453 --> 00:20:37,533 Speaker 2: must be a what's the term? I want? A contrarian 315 00:20:37,693 --> 00:20:42,493 Speaker 2: or nine it's gone complaint by the oil companies. Well then, no, 316 00:20:42,573 --> 00:20:45,813 Speaker 2: I wasn't even thinking that you must be a conspiracy theorist. 317 00:20:46,413 --> 00:20:50,773 Speaker 3: Ah, well, do you know what I always find this 318 00:20:50,893 --> 00:20:56,653 Speaker 3: amusing because the reality is conspiracies occur, right, And I 319 00:20:56,813 --> 00:21:00,693 Speaker 3: know that because my birthday is November fifth, And you 320 00:21:00,693 --> 00:21:04,053 Speaker 3: remember what happened on November fifth in Britain in sixteen 321 00:21:04,093 --> 00:21:07,133 Speaker 3: oh nine when when Guy Fox went to Parliament was 322 00:21:07,173 --> 00:21:09,893 Speaker 3: caught with twenty five was a gunpowder in the basement. 323 00:21:10,413 --> 00:21:14,493 Speaker 3: That's a conspiracy. Okay, Now, I liked I liked the 324 00:21:14,493 --> 00:21:16,493 Speaker 3: comment of the person who said he was the only 325 00:21:16,573 --> 00:21:18,613 Speaker 3: person that ever went to Parliament with. 326 00:21:18,573 --> 00:21:21,933 Speaker 2: Good intentions, honorable intentions, I think it. 327 00:21:22,733 --> 00:21:27,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, But but no conspiracies occur. And and this this 328 00:21:27,573 --> 00:21:31,813 Speaker 3: was a conspiracy because they planned it. You can go 329 00:21:31,853 --> 00:21:34,173 Speaker 3: and look at all the records, all the books, it's 330 00:21:34,173 --> 00:21:36,773 Speaker 3: all out there. It's all available through the United Nations 331 00:21:36,853 --> 00:21:42,973 Speaker 3: Environment Program Agenda twenty one. How they how they wrote 332 00:21:43,013 --> 00:21:46,693 Speaker 3: the definition to limit it only to looking at human causes, 333 00:21:47,613 --> 00:21:50,053 Speaker 3: how the the whole thing was orchestrated. And of course 334 00:21:50,053 --> 00:21:52,453 Speaker 3: I've laid it out as briefly as I can in 335 00:21:52,533 --> 00:21:56,493 Speaker 3: my book. So yes, it is a conspiracy, because conspiracies 336 00:21:56,533 --> 00:21:57,333 Speaker 3: do occur. 337 00:21:57,093 --> 00:21:59,173 Speaker 2: All right, But it's but it's not a conspiracy any 338 00:21:59,213 --> 00:22:00,933 Speaker 2: longer because it's been exposed. 339 00:22:01,853 --> 00:22:07,613 Speaker 3: Well hopefully that's true. But This is this fine line 340 00:22:07,693 --> 00:22:10,173 Speaker 3: because you could also argue that no, what they were 341 00:22:10,213 --> 00:22:14,413 Speaker 3: pursuing was a political agenda. Well, at what point does 342 00:22:14,453 --> 00:22:16,573 Speaker 3: a political agenda become a conspiracy? 343 00:22:17,813 --> 00:22:20,213 Speaker 2: That's a good point. Let me quote from Let me 344 00:22:20,293 --> 00:22:24,613 Speaker 2: quote from the book, page two. This book shows how 345 00:22:24,653 --> 00:22:27,973 Speaker 2: the deception was designed to be global by involving every 346 00:22:28,053 --> 00:22:31,973 Speaker 2: nation through the agencies of the United Nations. Historians, with 347 00:22:32,013 --> 00:22:34,653 Speaker 2: the benefit of twenty twenty hindsight, will wonder how such 348 00:22:34,653 --> 00:22:38,493 Speaker 2: a small group was able to achieve such a massive deception. 349 00:22:39,253 --> 00:22:43,173 Speaker 2: There are several reasons why the public was deceived. First, 350 00:22:43,333 --> 00:22:47,373 Speaker 2: the objective and therefore the science were premeditated. Now you've 351 00:22:47,413 --> 00:22:52,733 Speaker 2: covered that satisfactorily. Second, the scientific focus was deliberately narrowed 352 00:22:52,733 --> 00:22:55,253 Speaker 2: to CO two. Any more you want to add to that. 353 00:22:56,373 --> 00:23:00,853 Speaker 3: Well, yes, because if you, first of all, if you 354 00:23:00,893 --> 00:23:04,773 Speaker 3: look at greenhouse gases, which are about seven percent of 355 00:23:04,893 --> 00:23:10,133 Speaker 3: the total atmospheric gases, and that those greenhouse gases are 356 00:23:10,213 --> 00:23:14,213 Speaker 3: water vapor, and yet the whole focus is on CO two, 357 00:23:14,653 --> 00:23:17,453 Speaker 3: which is only four percent of all the greenhouse gases. 358 00:23:17,933 --> 00:23:22,253 Speaker 3: So CO two is four percent of the seven percent, 359 00:23:22,893 --> 00:23:26,293 Speaker 3: and yet water vapor, which is by far the most 360 00:23:26,333 --> 00:23:29,813 Speaker 3: important greenhouse gas never even guess mentioned. The public are 361 00:23:29,813 --> 00:23:32,973 Speaker 3: not even aware that it's a greenhouse gas. So this 362 00:23:33,373 --> 00:23:37,493 Speaker 3: was all deliberately narrowed down to divert the attention to 363 00:23:37,613 --> 00:23:39,373 Speaker 3: focus upon only one thing. 364 00:23:40,573 --> 00:23:43,333 Speaker 2: And CO two is something that's produced by every single 365 00:23:43,413 --> 00:23:48,373 Speaker 2: individual in the world to from a minimal degree to 366 00:23:48,613 --> 00:23:54,733 Speaker 2: a massive degree. The third point from the starts unaccountable 367 00:23:54,773 --> 00:23:57,493 Speaker 2: government agencies were involved and in control. 368 00:24:01,773 --> 00:24:08,173 Speaker 3: Well, yes, I mean this. The whole objective office, originally 369 00:24:08,373 --> 00:24:12,133 Speaker 3: through the Club of Rome, was that saying that you 370 00:24:12,293 --> 00:24:16,453 Speaker 3: needed one world government to deal with the climate issue 371 00:24:16,493 --> 00:24:19,453 Speaker 3: because no individual nation could deal with it. So there 372 00:24:19,493 --> 00:24:22,973 Speaker 3: was an underlying and you can see that the quote 373 00:24:23,053 --> 00:24:26,413 Speaker 3: Murray Strong in Elaine Dower's book she said, well you 374 00:24:26,453 --> 00:24:29,813 Speaker 3: know what, or she concluded after five days with him 375 00:24:29,813 --> 00:24:32,853 Speaker 3: at the UN that his objective was to create a 376 00:24:32,933 --> 00:24:37,933 Speaker 3: one world government and using the environment as as the lever. 377 00:24:38,693 --> 00:24:42,573 Speaker 3: And and so really what you're seeing is an attempt 378 00:24:42,613 --> 00:24:47,093 Speaker 3: at socialism and and uh so, how how do you, 379 00:24:47,253 --> 00:24:49,533 Speaker 3: uh you know, how do you achieve that other than 380 00:24:50,093 --> 00:24:52,613 Speaker 3: getting something as I set that threatens the whole world. 381 00:24:53,373 --> 00:24:57,173 Speaker 3: And and so that that that's what underlies the whole 382 00:24:57,293 --> 00:24:58,253 Speaker 3: whole process. 383 00:24:58,493 --> 00:25:01,453 Speaker 2: Now that elaineed you a book? Yeah, was it called 384 00:25:01,453 --> 00:25:04,573 Speaker 2: the green Hood or something cook of Green, Coco Green. 385 00:25:05,013 --> 00:25:06,773 Speaker 2: I had a look at I had a look at it, 386 00:25:06,813 --> 00:25:08,653 Speaker 2: and then I spun schooled down on it. I don't 387 00:25:08,653 --> 00:25:11,053 Speaker 2: do this often, but I spoiled down to look at 388 00:25:11,053 --> 00:25:15,053 Speaker 2: some of the negative comments and there was one there 389 00:25:15,453 --> 00:25:17,813 Speaker 2: from some I don't have it it was. I would 390 00:25:17,813 --> 00:25:19,973 Speaker 2: have had to print out so many pages to even 391 00:25:20,013 --> 00:25:23,453 Speaker 2: get it, but there was one there that just said 392 00:25:23,573 --> 00:25:30,493 Speaker 2: that your commentary was so fanciful, so absurd, so ridiculous, 393 00:25:30,933 --> 00:25:35,613 Speaker 2: as was the book that this individual just trashed it. Now, 394 00:25:35,653 --> 00:25:37,613 Speaker 2: I don't know whether you know the commentary that I'm 395 00:25:37,693 --> 00:25:41,093 Speaker 2: referring to or who it was, but that's that's, of 396 00:25:41,133 --> 00:25:45,173 Speaker 2: course what you get. But this was very determined. What 397 00:25:45,213 --> 00:25:47,293 Speaker 2: do you say, Well. 398 00:25:47,373 --> 00:25:50,573 Speaker 3: Of course, people that are in this industry, and it 399 00:25:50,693 --> 00:25:55,693 Speaker 3: is an industry of continuing the idea that human cause 400 00:25:56,253 --> 00:25:59,413 Speaker 3: or human creative CO two is causing global warming. This 401 00:25:59,573 --> 00:26:02,693 Speaker 3: is huge. I mean I mentioned earlier in our discussion 402 00:26:03,213 --> 00:26:06,573 Speaker 3: when when the American government are putting seventy billion dollars 403 00:26:06,813 --> 00:26:10,533 Speaker 3: of research funds into it, of course you're going to 404 00:26:10,573 --> 00:26:15,493 Speaker 3: try and shoot down anybody that dares to challenge what 405 00:26:15,533 --> 00:26:20,973 Speaker 3: you're saying. So this huge invested interest in maintaining this. 406 00:26:21,413 --> 00:26:24,093 Speaker 3: But I want to tell you about Elaine Dower's book, 407 00:26:24,133 --> 00:26:26,213 Speaker 3: and I had a brief conversation with her a few 408 00:26:26,253 --> 00:26:31,213 Speaker 3: years ago. She wanted to write a book praising Canadian 409 00:26:31,293 --> 00:26:35,973 Speaker 3: environmentalists and this would include people like David Suzuki, who's 410 00:26:36,013 --> 00:26:41,293 Speaker 3: familiar on a global stage and so on. And she 411 00:26:41,493 --> 00:26:47,533 Speaker 3: started her research as a well qualified investigative journalist to 412 00:26:47,653 --> 00:26:50,213 Speaker 3: do this book. And by the time she got about 413 00:26:50,253 --> 00:26:55,253 Speaker 3: halfway through her research, she discovered that the people she 414 00:26:55,533 --> 00:27:00,413 Speaker 3: was going praising were in fact more political and more 415 00:27:00,493 --> 00:27:05,373 Speaker 3: devious than the people that they were attacking. And so 416 00:27:05,493 --> 00:27:09,213 Speaker 3: she started the book with one complete objective and ended 417 00:27:09,293 --> 00:27:14,853 Speaker 3: up with a completely opposite objective. And I said to her, 418 00:27:14,933 --> 00:27:17,533 Speaker 3: I said, you know, you need to update the book 419 00:27:17,573 --> 00:27:19,733 Speaker 3: because she wrote it one nineteen ninety nine or something 420 00:27:20,013 --> 00:27:21,973 Speaker 3: and that five years later. I said, you need to 421 00:27:22,013 --> 00:27:23,613 Speaker 3: update it a bit and she said, I wouldn't even 422 00:27:23,693 --> 00:27:26,013 Speaker 3: touch it. I said why not? She said, I've had 423 00:27:26,093 --> 00:27:29,453 Speaker 3: death threats. You wouldn't believe the attacks that I've had, 424 00:27:29,653 --> 00:27:32,893 Speaker 3: more than I've ever had on any other investigative journalism 425 00:27:32,893 --> 00:27:37,093 Speaker 3: I've ever done. And so this is why the book 426 00:27:37,133 --> 00:27:40,693 Speaker 3: is so remarkable. It's that it started out with one 427 00:27:41,293 --> 00:27:45,333 Speaker 3: hypothesis and through very good sort of research, ended up 428 00:27:45,333 --> 00:27:49,893 Speaker 3: with a completely opposite hypothesis. And that's what's significant about it. 429 00:27:50,093 --> 00:27:52,733 Speaker 3: And of course this is what people have a hard 430 00:27:52,773 --> 00:27:56,773 Speaker 3: time understanding, is well, then how could you take an 431 00:27:56,773 --> 00:28:01,293 Speaker 3: issue as important as global warming and use it for 432 00:28:01,373 --> 00:28:05,813 Speaker 3: a political agenda. Well, that's the way that you can 433 00:28:05,853 --> 00:28:09,813 Speaker 3: control people. And of course the argument I think Margaret 434 00:28:09,853 --> 00:28:14,093 Speaker 3: me the great anthropologist, once said, it's not surprising that 435 00:28:14,453 --> 00:28:17,893 Speaker 3: a small group of people do this. It's always been 436 00:28:17,933 --> 00:28:20,293 Speaker 3: small groups of people that are at the center of 437 00:28:20,333 --> 00:28:25,733 Speaker 3: any particular major change in the world. And it is 438 00:28:25,773 --> 00:28:29,733 Speaker 3: not large groups or organizations. I mean, when you narrow 439 00:28:29,773 --> 00:28:32,693 Speaker 3: it down in the case of the climacying, it's only 440 00:28:32,693 --> 00:28:35,893 Speaker 3: about six or seven people, most of them dased at 441 00:28:35,893 --> 00:28:38,933 Speaker 3: the Climatic Research Unit of the University of East Anglia 442 00:28:39,333 --> 00:28:42,093 Speaker 3: under Phil Jones and Tom Wigley. 443 00:28:43,813 --> 00:28:48,653 Speaker 2: People are going to struggle with that answer on the 444 00:28:48,693 --> 00:28:56,053 Speaker 2: basis that it's now we're led to believe worldwide and 445 00:28:56,213 --> 00:28:59,173 Speaker 2: massively believed because we were all aware of the ninety 446 00:28:59,173 --> 00:29:02,573 Speaker 2: seven percent, and what a calm that is but nevertheless, 447 00:29:02,573 --> 00:29:05,653 Speaker 2: it gets trotted out every single time there's an interview 448 00:29:05,653 --> 00:29:09,613 Speaker 2: with somebody who wants to put down skeptics. 449 00:29:10,253 --> 00:29:14,013 Speaker 3: Well, the answer the answer to that is that, yeah, 450 00:29:14,933 --> 00:29:20,493 Speaker 3: that's the case. And even when enough of people of 451 00:29:20,653 --> 00:29:24,173 Speaker 3: influence start to realize what's going on, there will still 452 00:29:24,213 --> 00:29:26,973 Speaker 3: be fifty sixty percent of the world that will believe it. 453 00:29:27,733 --> 00:29:30,533 Speaker 3: I mean, there are people out there that still believe 454 00:29:30,573 --> 00:29:32,853 Speaker 3: the earth is flat. I haven't. 455 00:29:32,893 --> 00:29:36,173 Speaker 2: I haven't bumped into any I have, really I have. 456 00:29:37,533 --> 00:29:40,733 Speaker 3: I have, and by the way, I have a tendency 457 00:29:40,733 --> 00:29:43,093 Speaker 3: you do agree with them, because if the world was flat, 458 00:29:43,133 --> 00:29:48,453 Speaker 3: we could push the idiots off the edge. But no, 459 00:29:48,533 --> 00:29:52,093 Speaker 3: I mean, this is always the way with new paradigms, 460 00:29:52,133 --> 00:29:54,773 Speaker 3: that there's new ways of looking and thinking about the world, 461 00:29:55,373 --> 00:29:57,733 Speaker 3: and there's always a group of people that will hang 462 00:29:57,813 --> 00:30:02,933 Speaker 3: on and resist, usually about twenty percent. There's also, by 463 00:30:02,973 --> 00:30:05,573 Speaker 3: the way, about twenty percent who grabbed the idea very 464 00:30:05,653 --> 00:30:10,013 Speaker 3: quickly because they see both political and financial reward in it. 465 00:30:10,573 --> 00:30:15,133 Speaker 3: So and then you get the other sixty percent saying, well, yeah, 466 00:30:15,173 --> 00:30:19,293 Speaker 3: it sounds reasonable, but I'm not sure I fully understand it, 467 00:30:19,333 --> 00:30:21,493 Speaker 3: so I'm not going to commit to it. That's where 468 00:30:21,533 --> 00:30:24,093 Speaker 3: we are with the climate change issue right now, all. 469 00:30:24,053 --> 00:30:29,013 Speaker 2: Right point four science and political structures and procedures were 470 00:30:29,013 --> 00:30:31,693 Speaker 2: put in place to enhance the deception. I think you've 471 00:30:32,173 --> 00:30:34,093 Speaker 2: covered some of that. Anything else you want to add 472 00:30:34,093 --> 00:30:35,533 Speaker 2: to it, well, it just. 473 00:30:36,013 --> 00:30:40,733 Speaker 3: That it was the first time that the United Nations 474 00:30:40,773 --> 00:30:46,973 Speaker 3: had been deliberately used to bring in a global policy. This, 475 00:30:46,973 --> 00:30:52,293 Speaker 3: this is the evil genius of Boris Strong. The guy. 476 00:30:52,413 --> 00:30:57,453 Speaker 3: The guy was absolutely incredible, a genius, but an evil 477 00:30:57,493 --> 00:31:00,933 Speaker 3: genius nonetheless, I mean in what he was able to 478 00:31:00,973 --> 00:31:03,853 Speaker 3: do and how he was able to organize the fact 479 00:31:03,933 --> 00:31:08,213 Speaker 3: that you know when Elaine Doer said to him, well, 480 00:31:08,373 --> 00:31:10,493 Speaker 3: you know, that's a pretty big idea about getting rid 481 00:31:10,533 --> 00:31:13,853 Speaker 3: of the industrialized nations. And she said, well, are you 482 00:31:13,853 --> 00:31:16,533 Speaker 3: going to run for politics? And he said, no, you 483 00:31:16,533 --> 00:31:19,453 Speaker 3: can't do anything as a politician. She said, well, what 484 00:31:19,493 --> 00:31:20,733 Speaker 3: are you going to do? He said, I'm going to 485 00:31:20,733 --> 00:31:22,453 Speaker 3: go to the United Nations, where I can get all 486 00:31:22,493 --> 00:31:24,453 Speaker 3: the money I want to whatever I want and not 487 00:31:24,533 --> 00:31:27,813 Speaker 3: be accountable to anybody. And that's exactly what he did. 488 00:31:28,813 --> 00:31:30,773 Speaker 3: He went to the UN and set up the United 489 00:31:30,853 --> 00:31:34,933 Speaker 3: Nations Environment Program, and he created Agenda twenty one, and 490 00:31:34,973 --> 00:31:38,493 Speaker 3: he created and he chaired the nineteen ninety two Real 491 00:31:38,653 --> 00:31:41,333 Speaker 3: Conference at which all of this stuff was brought onto 492 00:31:41,373 --> 00:31:44,533 Speaker 3: the world stage, and that was done by Mars Strong alone. 493 00:31:45,053 --> 00:31:46,013 Speaker 3: It's absolutely criticle. 494 00:31:46,133 --> 00:31:49,813 Speaker 2: I know somebody who has, shall we say, very strong 495 00:31:49,853 --> 00:31:54,973 Speaker 2: connections with the UN who says that Maurice Strong's reputation, 496 00:31:55,213 --> 00:32:00,693 Speaker 2: as you've just described it is overrated to the NS degree. 497 00:32:01,933 --> 00:32:05,573 Speaker 3: I wouldn't disagree with that being overrated. But who was 498 00:32:05,613 --> 00:32:07,333 Speaker 3: the one that was got it overrated? 499 00:32:07,333 --> 00:32:11,773 Speaker 2: It was Mars Strong, but he meant the influence that 500 00:32:11,853 --> 00:32:13,333 Speaker 2: he had was overrated. 501 00:32:13,973 --> 00:32:18,773 Speaker 3: Oh it may be within the UN itself, but then 502 00:32:18,853 --> 00:32:20,693 Speaker 3: how much influence does the u N had on the 503 00:32:20,733 --> 00:32:26,893 Speaker 3: world with anything? The u N is just another bureaucratic 504 00:32:27,133 --> 00:32:31,413 Speaker 3: uh retirement home. The UN dos all sorts of things, 505 00:32:31,493 --> 00:32:35,493 Speaker 3: but it hardly affects anybody anywhere except those people that 506 00:32:35,613 --> 00:32:37,333 Speaker 3: want to exploit it and make a whole lot of 507 00:32:37,373 --> 00:32:37,853 Speaker 3: money out of it. 508 00:32:37,853 --> 00:32:40,733 Speaker 2: All right, Number five, His actions were taken to block 509 00:32:40,893 --> 00:32:42,093 Speaker 2: or divert challenges. 510 00:32:44,933 --> 00:32:48,853 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Well, of course, if you're going to create something, 511 00:32:49,813 --> 00:32:53,413 Speaker 3: you've got to anticipate what the challenges to it are 512 00:32:53,493 --> 00:32:57,173 Speaker 3: going to be. And of course, the way that Maurice 513 00:32:57,253 --> 00:33:00,933 Speaker 3: Strong did that was when he set up the Intergovernmental 514 00:33:00,973 --> 00:33:04,133 Speaker 3: Panel on Climate Change. He did it through the World 515 00:33:04,213 --> 00:33:08,093 Speaker 3: Meteorological Organization, which is a UN agency made up of 516 00:33:08,133 --> 00:33:12,453 Speaker 3: all the weather offices across the world. Each each weather 517 00:33:12,533 --> 00:33:16,093 Speaker 3: office sends a bunch of bureaucrats to Geneva and they 518 00:33:16,213 --> 00:33:21,893 Speaker 3: determine policy for the world. And so they then go 519 00:33:22,013 --> 00:33:25,053 Speaker 3: back to their individual countries. And you look at each 520 00:33:25,133 --> 00:33:29,253 Speaker 3: country like the ukmo Or, you look at Noah, you 521 00:33:29,293 --> 00:33:33,813 Speaker 3: look at environment Canada. These are the people, the bureaucrats 522 00:33:34,133 --> 00:33:37,093 Speaker 3: that set all of the energy and environment policy for 523 00:33:37,613 --> 00:33:41,493 Speaker 3: each nation. So the politician is not in control of 524 00:33:41,533 --> 00:33:44,293 Speaker 3: this at all. And of course any politician that tries 525 00:33:44,373 --> 00:33:47,773 Speaker 3: to interfere is immediately challenged and said, well what do 526 00:33:47,813 --> 00:33:51,373 Speaker 3: you know about the science of this? And I watched 527 00:33:51,373 --> 00:33:56,173 Speaker 3: that in Australia when we challenged the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, 528 00:33:56,213 --> 00:33:59,373 Speaker 3: and we I mean Malcolm Roberts, who became a senator 529 00:33:59,373 --> 00:34:02,573 Speaker 3: in order to challenge this. But this is this is 530 00:34:02,613 --> 00:34:05,533 Speaker 3: something that Strong did deliberately. He put all of the 531 00:34:05,533 --> 00:34:08,773 Speaker 3: control of it in the hands of the bureaucrats the state. 532 00:34:08,893 --> 00:34:12,933 Speaker 3: This is this is the original Fate news story created 533 00:34:13,013 --> 00:34:16,453 Speaker 3: and perpetuated by by the deep state off the bureaucrats. 534 00:34:17,133 --> 00:34:20,413 Speaker 2: Number six. The people's natural fear is and this is 535 00:34:20,573 --> 00:34:24,293 Speaker 2: easily understood, the people's natural fee is about change and catastrophe. 536 00:34:24,893 --> 00:34:29,213 Speaker 2: We're exploited. Now this unquestionably involves the media. 537 00:34:31,973 --> 00:34:36,213 Speaker 3: Yes, and and and of course you know, the whole 538 00:34:36,253 --> 00:34:41,133 Speaker 3: idea about change, change is normal. The only thing that 539 00:34:41,173 --> 00:34:44,733 Speaker 3: it is normal about change and that it always occurs. 540 00:34:45,333 --> 00:34:51,613 Speaker 3: But in the in this uh environmental, this new environmental paradigm, 541 00:34:51,853 --> 00:34:55,293 Speaker 3: the whole idea has been created that, uh, there are 542 00:34:55,493 --> 00:35:00,453 Speaker 3: changes that are occurring faster than ever or more dramatically 543 00:35:00,573 --> 00:35:03,813 Speaker 3: than ever, and therefore they can't be natural. Therefore there's 544 00:35:03,853 --> 00:35:07,533 Speaker 3: something that humans are doing. So the whole whole idea 545 00:35:07,853 --> 00:35:11,493 Speaker 3: is that you use this and say, look all you're doing, 546 00:35:11,613 --> 00:35:16,173 Speaker 3: industry development, all of these things are are are destroying 547 00:35:16,213 --> 00:35:19,053 Speaker 3: the planet and humans are to blame, and therefore we've 548 00:35:19,093 --> 00:35:22,373 Speaker 3: got to deal with it. And it's it's utter nonsense, 549 00:35:22,973 --> 00:35:25,093 Speaker 3: utter nonsense. I mean, you look at the amount of 550 00:35:25,173 --> 00:35:31,093 Speaker 3: energy that that humans produce against one thunderstorm. It's just 551 00:35:31,373 --> 00:35:35,693 Speaker 3: it's flappable. But but this idea that the change is 552 00:35:35,733 --> 00:35:40,453 Speaker 3: more drab, dramatic than ever before is central to selling 553 00:35:40,493 --> 00:35:43,653 Speaker 3: the idea that we this is, this is what humans 554 00:35:43,653 --> 00:35:46,853 Speaker 3: are doing, and therefore we've got to stop it. Of course, 555 00:35:46,893 --> 00:35:52,053 Speaker 3: it begs the question, Uh, well if if, if change 556 00:35:52,093 --> 00:35:55,293 Speaker 3: is more rapid than because of humans, well does that 557 00:35:55,373 --> 00:35:58,773 Speaker 3: say that humans are not natural? See, this is the 558 00:35:58,853 --> 00:36:03,773 Speaker 3: question they always ignore. If humans do it automatically, it's wrong. Well, 559 00:36:03,773 --> 00:36:06,453 Speaker 3: why aren't we like all the other animals? You're telling 560 00:36:06,493 --> 00:36:09,053 Speaker 3: me that Darwin says we're like all the other animals. 561 00:36:09,253 --> 00:36:12,333 Speaker 3: You can't have it both ways. This is a philosophical 562 00:36:12,373 --> 00:36:16,333 Speaker 3: contradiction in all of this environmental movement that nobody wants 563 00:36:16,373 --> 00:36:18,653 Speaker 3: to talk about, and certainly the world's not ready for 564 00:36:18,693 --> 00:36:19,973 Speaker 3: this discussion at this point. 565 00:36:20,133 --> 00:36:22,213 Speaker 2: Is while I think of it, let me let me 566 00:36:22,453 --> 00:36:27,373 Speaker 2: just go back to that population issue. In the size 567 00:36:27,373 --> 00:36:29,893 Speaker 2: of the population I got I got another email from 568 00:36:29,933 --> 00:36:32,213 Speaker 2: somebody and I and I haven't checked this out, and 569 00:36:32,253 --> 00:36:34,573 Speaker 2: I'm not good at maths. But this is this is 570 00:36:34,613 --> 00:36:36,413 Speaker 2: off the top of my head because I haven't got 571 00:36:36,413 --> 00:36:39,293 Speaker 2: it in front of me. But the author of this 572 00:36:39,413 --> 00:36:46,293 Speaker 2: email said he did some did some work, some mathematical work. 573 00:36:46,733 --> 00:36:49,573 Speaker 2: The math was never my best subject, and said that 574 00:36:50,173 --> 00:36:54,973 Speaker 2: if if you put if you built boxes, in other words, 575 00:36:55,013 --> 00:36:59,493 Speaker 2: coffins that were six feet long, because I still work 576 00:36:59,493 --> 00:37:02,933 Speaker 2: in feet and inches. Six feet long point well point 577 00:37:02,933 --> 00:37:05,973 Speaker 2: four of a meter wide, So now I'm confusing everybody 578 00:37:06,333 --> 00:37:08,693 Speaker 2: point four of a meter wide. And then the depth 579 00:37:08,773 --> 00:37:11,973 Speaker 2: of them was whatever, whatever it was, but it was 580 00:37:12,053 --> 00:37:15,853 Speaker 2: it was the least of all. And you and you 581 00:37:16,013 --> 00:37:20,173 Speaker 2: put everybody in the world in one of those boxes. 582 00:37:21,013 --> 00:37:23,293 Speaker 2: And there was a lot more detail to this, but 583 00:37:23,453 --> 00:37:26,573 Speaker 2: to cut to the quick, it would fill up about 584 00:37:26,693 --> 00:37:29,573 Speaker 2: half of air's rock in Australia. 585 00:37:30,373 --> 00:37:30,613 Speaker 3: Yep. 586 00:37:32,173 --> 00:37:37,053 Speaker 2: And if he's if he's right, that's just extraordinary because 587 00:37:37,093 --> 00:37:43,133 Speaker 2: it it restricts, it puts it into perspective the effect 588 00:37:43,173 --> 00:37:46,013 Speaker 2: of the number of people on the planet exactly. 589 00:37:46,493 --> 00:37:50,933 Speaker 3: And of course this is the people. How can I 590 00:37:50,973 --> 00:37:54,133 Speaker 3: explain this? People go where all the people are and 591 00:37:54,173 --> 00:37:57,653 Speaker 3: then complain about all the people. You know, people say 592 00:37:57,693 --> 00:38:03,293 Speaker 3: they like isolation, Well you can about almost ninety percent 593 00:38:03,333 --> 00:38:06,893 Speaker 3: of the world is unoccupied. You look at Canada, the 594 00:38:06,933 --> 00:38:09,493 Speaker 3: second largest country in the world world with the same 595 00:38:09,533 --> 00:38:15,453 Speaker 3: population as California. And I remember we're doing churches in 596 00:38:15,493 --> 00:38:18,653 Speaker 3: the north and having Americans along and I said, look, 597 00:38:18,653 --> 00:38:21,013 Speaker 3: we're gonna fly and I showed them the line on 598 00:38:21,053 --> 00:38:24,373 Speaker 3: the map. We're going to fly about eight hundred miles 599 00:38:24,933 --> 00:38:27,693 Speaker 3: and you're not going to see a village or road, nothing, 600 00:38:28,493 --> 00:38:30,893 Speaker 3: And they couldn't believe it. They couldn't believe that that 601 00:38:30,973 --> 00:38:35,053 Speaker 3: there's that much of the world that's unoccupied. So now 602 00:38:35,173 --> 00:38:38,013 Speaker 3: the other thing is that if you took all the 603 00:38:38,053 --> 00:38:41,773 Speaker 3: population of the world and had them standing within within 604 00:38:41,853 --> 00:38:45,733 Speaker 3: a one square yard area, the whole world's population would 605 00:38:45,733 --> 00:38:49,213 Speaker 3: fit onto the Isle of Wight. But you see this, 606 00:38:50,173 --> 00:38:51,893 Speaker 3: think back to what I said to you about what 607 00:38:52,573 --> 00:38:56,293 Speaker 3: Murray Strong did. What was the Club of Rome argument, Oh, 608 00:38:56,333 --> 00:39:00,613 Speaker 3: the world's overpopulated. And people will say to me, well, okay, 609 00:39:00,693 --> 00:39:04,213 Speaker 3: I buy you that were not causing global warming or 610 00:39:04,253 --> 00:39:10,173 Speaker 3: climate change, but the world's still overpopulated. That underlies the 611 00:39:10,253 --> 00:39:14,093 Speaker 3: theme of all of this, and it's completely false. It's 612 00:39:14,173 --> 00:39:18,613 Speaker 3: completely false. Right now, you can argue that. And by 613 00:39:18,653 --> 00:39:21,493 Speaker 3: the way, the places in the world with the highest 614 00:39:21,533 --> 00:39:25,693 Speaker 3: population density also happen to have the higher standard of living, 615 00:39:26,093 --> 00:39:28,973 Speaker 3: so you go to the Netherlands, for example, and parts 616 00:39:29,013 --> 00:39:35,453 Speaker 3: of Europe, so it's completely contradictory. So, but the overpopulation 617 00:39:35,653 --> 00:39:40,013 Speaker 3: issue is the one thing that people fear. They don't 618 00:39:40,013 --> 00:39:42,653 Speaker 3: want too many people around. They think that, so it's 619 00:39:42,693 --> 00:39:45,733 Speaker 3: easy to sell it. So that's why it's central to 620 00:39:45,813 --> 00:39:49,853 Speaker 3: this whole theme of the global warming issue, the overpopulation. 621 00:39:50,573 --> 00:39:53,973 Speaker 2: Yeah, number seven, this one speaks for itself. We can 622 00:39:54,013 --> 00:39:56,013 Speaker 2: move on. I think after I read this, the public's 623 00:39:56,093 --> 00:39:59,253 Speaker 2: lack of scientific understanding, especially with regard to climate science, 624 00:39:59,853 --> 00:40:03,693 Speaker 2: was exploited. Or did I read that before Anyway, the 625 00:40:03,693 --> 00:40:06,893 Speaker 2: point being the pil I don't think it needs any comment, 626 00:40:06,973 --> 00:40:08,173 Speaker 2: doesn't well? It? 627 00:40:08,373 --> 00:40:11,973 Speaker 3: Yes, And the comment that it needs is that, And 628 00:40:13,053 --> 00:40:15,093 Speaker 3: I'm going to make a generalization, and I make no 629 00:40:15,213 --> 00:40:18,453 Speaker 3: apologies for that, because one of the worst things we've 630 00:40:18,493 --> 00:40:21,973 Speaker 3: done is to say that it specializes the mark of genius, 631 00:40:21,973 --> 00:40:24,373 Speaker 3: and to generalize is the mark of a fool. The 632 00:40:24,413 --> 00:40:27,613 Speaker 3: reality is that you have to generalize, and you must 633 00:40:27,653 --> 00:40:31,333 Speaker 3: generalize on generalities. Of course, there are exceptions to the rule. 634 00:40:31,613 --> 00:40:38,293 Speaker 3: That was always the case. But the sorry, what your 635 00:40:38,413 --> 00:40:39,533 Speaker 3: question was about. 636 00:40:39,253 --> 00:40:42,093 Speaker 2: The lack of scientific understanding? 637 00:40:42,293 --> 00:40:45,773 Speaker 3: Oh? Yes, okay. If we take the world population, and 638 00:40:45,853 --> 00:40:49,493 Speaker 3: I know this because I taught a science credit for 639 00:40:49,653 --> 00:40:54,853 Speaker 3: art students, Okay, so I am very familiar with the challenge. 640 00:40:55,453 --> 00:40:58,373 Speaker 3: You take any population anywhere in the world, and it 641 00:40:58,413 --> 00:41:01,693 Speaker 3: does vary a little bit from country to country. For example, 642 00:41:01,773 --> 00:41:05,453 Speaker 3: Finland has a higher percentage of people that are are 643 00:41:05,493 --> 00:41:09,453 Speaker 3: are competent in mathematics than most of the but it's 644 00:41:09,493 --> 00:41:13,253 Speaker 3: only like one or two percent more. But in virtually 645 00:41:13,293 --> 00:41:17,453 Speaker 3: every country in the world the ratio is about fifteen 646 00:41:17,573 --> 00:41:21,813 Speaker 3: percent that are capable of doing mathematics and science and 647 00:41:21,893 --> 00:41:26,973 Speaker 3: about eighty five percent that simply can't deal with a 648 00:41:27,093 --> 00:41:30,413 Speaker 3: number at all. So you go to any university, eighty 649 00:41:30,453 --> 00:41:33,333 Speaker 3: percent of the students are our art students and twenty 650 00:41:33,413 --> 00:41:37,253 Speaker 3: percent are science students at the best. And that's true 651 00:41:37,333 --> 00:41:40,893 Speaker 3: across the world. So of course, and this is when 652 00:41:40,933 --> 00:41:45,053 Speaker 3: I was on the committee that was advising Trump what 653 00:41:45,213 --> 00:41:48,573 Speaker 3: to do about the climate change issue. And I said 654 00:41:48,613 --> 00:41:52,373 Speaker 3: to them and to tell him, look, we can show 655 00:41:52,413 --> 00:41:54,853 Speaker 3: you the facts that show that the science of climate 656 00:41:54,933 --> 00:41:58,013 Speaker 3: change is wrong, and you can get up there and 657 00:41:58,053 --> 00:42:00,853 Speaker 3: say that. But the minute you're asked a question about 658 00:42:00,853 --> 00:42:03,933 Speaker 3: the science, you'll fall apart. They'll make you look stupid 659 00:42:03,973 --> 00:42:06,893 Speaker 3: so fast to make your head spin. So what you 660 00:42:07,013 --> 00:42:11,213 Speaker 3: do is you go and say, look, the Parish Climate 661 00:42:11,253 --> 00:42:14,853 Speaker 3: agreement is a rotten deal, and here's why. And of 662 00:42:14,853 --> 00:42:17,933 Speaker 3: course you're the guy that your whole shtick is bad deals. 663 00:42:18,213 --> 00:42:21,573 Speaker 3: That's why he got other Parish climate agreement. And so 664 00:42:23,613 --> 00:42:25,853 Speaker 3: even if Trump was to get up there and explain 665 00:42:25,893 --> 00:42:28,733 Speaker 3: what was wrong with the science, twenty percent of the 666 00:42:28,773 --> 00:42:31,293 Speaker 3: population would understand him and the other eighty percent on 667 00:42:32,533 --> 00:42:36,773 Speaker 3: So why even bother with that? That's why I why 668 00:42:36,853 --> 00:42:40,173 Speaker 3: I'm such a danger because I can explain the science 669 00:42:40,213 --> 00:42:43,973 Speaker 3: in ways that people can understand, but I also understand 670 00:42:44,053 --> 00:42:48,813 Speaker 3: and can get around the political ramifications. 671 00:42:48,013 --> 00:42:52,653 Speaker 2: Of it all numbers eight and nine, I'll join them together. 672 00:42:53,453 --> 00:42:55,933 Speaker 2: People find it hard to believe a deception on such 673 00:42:55,973 --> 00:43:00,253 Speaker 2: a grand scale could occur, and opponents were rustlessly attacked, 674 00:43:01,373 --> 00:43:06,893 Speaker 2: causing others to remain silent. And you exhibit one for 675 00:43:06,973 --> 00:43:07,653 Speaker 2: that last point. 676 00:43:08,493 --> 00:43:12,173 Speaker 3: Yes, the fact that I got the lawsuits, why did 677 00:43:12,213 --> 00:43:14,173 Speaker 3: they pick me out? I wasn't the only person that 678 00:43:14,333 --> 00:43:18,133 Speaker 3: was challenging what they were saying. But I had two 679 00:43:18,373 --> 00:43:22,613 Speaker 3: attributes that God given. One was that I could explain 680 00:43:22,693 --> 00:43:25,453 Speaker 3: the science, in the complex science in a way people 681 00:43:25,493 --> 00:43:29,453 Speaker 3: could understand, and I had had an ability to make 682 00:43:29,493 --> 00:43:32,933 Speaker 3: it understandable to the vast majority of the people. And 683 00:43:32,973 --> 00:43:35,453 Speaker 3: as I said, I honed those skills by teaching a 684 00:43:35,573 --> 00:43:38,733 Speaker 3: science credit for art students for twenty five years, so 685 00:43:39,613 --> 00:43:44,133 Speaker 3: they couldn't say I wasn't qualified. Noticed that nobody ever 686 00:43:44,173 --> 00:43:48,213 Speaker 3: said that al Gore wasn't qualified, was never even never challenged, 687 00:43:48,293 --> 00:43:50,653 Speaker 3: never said well, what do you know about climate change? 688 00:43:51,133 --> 00:43:53,653 Speaker 3: You know nothing? And yet here you've written books and 689 00:43:53,693 --> 00:43:56,293 Speaker 3: you're the world expert on it. You know nothing, So 690 00:43:56,453 --> 00:43:59,293 Speaker 3: they couldn't say I wasn't qualified. And I had this 691 00:43:59,413 --> 00:44:03,813 Speaker 3: ability to explain it in ways that people that didn't 692 00:44:03,893 --> 00:44:07,013 Speaker 3: understand science could make sense of it. Therefore I was 693 00:44:07,053 --> 00:44:10,533 Speaker 3: an enormous threat. So what do you do? You file 694 00:44:10,653 --> 00:44:15,053 Speaker 3: three lawsuits against the against me and and try to 695 00:44:15,093 --> 00:44:18,613 Speaker 3: shut me up that way, both in terms of the 696 00:44:18,653 --> 00:44:22,373 Speaker 3: cost and also other scientists. I had a lot of 697 00:44:22,453 --> 00:44:24,813 Speaker 3: scientists say to me, we agree with you, but we 698 00:44:25,053 --> 00:44:28,533 Speaker 3: never say it publicly because we don't want to get lawsuits. 699 00:44:28,613 --> 00:44:32,133 Speaker 3: We don't want to be attacked. So the intimidation factor 700 00:44:32,173 --> 00:44:35,053 Speaker 3: of what I've gone through is very much a part 701 00:44:35,093 --> 00:44:35,293 Speaker 3: of this. 702 00:44:35,973 --> 00:44:38,333 Speaker 2: So do you think that your success to this point 703 00:44:38,373 --> 00:44:43,973 Speaker 2: anyway will carry each others. 704 00:44:44,653 --> 00:44:49,293 Speaker 3: That I'm right at the point of not knowing whether 705 00:44:49,493 --> 00:44:52,373 Speaker 3: how to answer that question. My wife asked me that 706 00:44:52,453 --> 00:44:55,693 Speaker 3: question this morning because one of the things that I've 707 00:44:55,733 --> 00:45:00,693 Speaker 3: been saying recently is that I failed. And what I 708 00:45:00,773 --> 00:45:04,053 Speaker 3: mean by that is that for thirty or forty years now, 709 00:45:04,493 --> 00:45:07,973 Speaker 3: I've been trying to point out the world how what's 710 00:45:08,013 --> 00:45:10,733 Speaker 3: wrong with the science, the very basics of what's wrong 711 00:45:10,773 --> 00:45:13,813 Speaker 3: with the science, and an awful lot of people have 712 00:45:14,373 --> 00:45:17,773 Speaker 3: bought into that. You know, the the you can look 713 00:45:17,813 --> 00:45:21,573 Speaker 3: on the web, but at the groups, but the world 714 00:45:21,773 --> 00:45:26,893 Speaker 3: is still every single Democratic presidential nominee in the in 715 00:45:26,973 --> 00:45:32,413 Speaker 3: America recently climate change was their number one issue. Well, 716 00:45:32,693 --> 00:45:34,733 Speaker 3: if climate change is not an issue, why is it 717 00:45:34,853 --> 00:45:37,573 Speaker 3: an issue for them? Therefore I failed. 718 00:45:38,773 --> 00:45:41,413 Speaker 2: And I read that when when you put that, when 719 00:45:41,453 --> 00:45:45,053 Speaker 2: you put that out, and I thought, I thought, I thought, 720 00:45:45,573 --> 00:45:49,333 Speaker 2: don't fall over now, Well you have been you have 721 00:45:49,413 --> 00:45:55,653 Speaker 2: been rehabilitated. They're they're the nine points. Now, who's got 722 00:45:55,653 --> 00:45:57,813 Speaker 2: the moral high grounds in this debate? 723 00:46:00,813 --> 00:46:04,133 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, of course that's That's what it's all about, 724 00:46:04,253 --> 00:46:07,413 Speaker 3: is is uh, who's got the moral high ground? And 725 00:46:07,413 --> 00:46:11,133 Speaker 3: the answer is the minute the minute you say you know, 726 00:46:11,213 --> 00:46:17,533 Speaker 3: I'm protecting the environment or protecting the planet, than anybody 727 00:46:17,573 --> 00:46:21,173 Speaker 3: that dares to question what you're saying loses the moral 728 00:46:21,253 --> 00:46:25,573 Speaker 3: high ground. So they get the moral high ground by default. 729 00:46:26,413 --> 00:46:29,053 Speaker 3: And and of course this is this is what I'm saying. 730 00:46:29,133 --> 00:46:33,533 Speaker 3: I said earlier about where science would normally have a 731 00:46:33,573 --> 00:46:37,373 Speaker 3: full debate about the credibility of all this information. You 732 00:46:37,413 --> 00:46:41,533 Speaker 3: can't even present the other side of the argument because 733 00:46:41,533 --> 00:46:45,693 Speaker 3: you're immediately accused of not caring about the children, or 734 00:46:45,693 --> 00:46:51,293 Speaker 3: the planet or the future. So it stifles the debate 735 00:46:51,373 --> 00:46:55,213 Speaker 3: that we absolutely need to have, because you know, here's 736 00:46:55,253 --> 00:46:57,413 Speaker 3: one of the area just just a shirt to throw 737 00:46:57,453 --> 00:47:00,893 Speaker 3: something at you that completely out of left field. We're 738 00:47:00,893 --> 00:47:04,653 Speaker 3: talking about overpopulation. Every country in the world is, oh, well, 739 00:47:04,693 --> 00:47:07,733 Speaker 3: we got overpopulation. We got to reduce population. Do you 740 00:47:07,773 --> 00:47:10,173 Speaker 3: know the most effective way of reducing population? 741 00:47:10,413 --> 00:47:16,333 Speaker 2: Yes, development exactly, and that's been known for sixty years. Well, 742 00:47:16,813 --> 00:47:21,853 Speaker 2: I profit that on this podcast, I think only a 743 00:47:21,893 --> 00:47:25,333 Speaker 2: week ago, to a question that somebody wrote to me, 744 00:47:25,893 --> 00:47:28,653 Speaker 2: and I got a response to it from another individual, 745 00:47:30,013 --> 00:47:34,333 Speaker 2: and it went something like this, how can you believe 746 00:47:34,453 --> 00:47:38,653 Speaker 2: the figures that are proposed about the popular the oil's 747 00:47:38,693 --> 00:47:43,253 Speaker 2: population dropping around twenty fifty How can you believe that 748 00:47:43,613 --> 00:47:47,813 Speaker 2: from people who look to the future, when we won't 749 00:47:47,853 --> 00:47:50,773 Speaker 2: believe this about climate and other things. In other words, 750 00:47:50,933 --> 00:47:53,973 Speaker 2: they get it wrong all the time, So why would 751 00:47:54,013 --> 00:47:56,733 Speaker 2: we believe that. Figure, Well, what. 752 00:47:57,133 --> 00:48:01,533 Speaker 3: You have to do as what I have always done, 753 00:48:01,573 --> 00:48:04,053 Speaker 3: and why I got into climate and then into the 754 00:48:04,093 --> 00:48:07,613 Speaker 3: area of climate that I did. I got into climate 755 00:48:07,653 --> 00:48:11,973 Speaker 3: reconstruction because one of the things I discovered was that 756 00:48:12,013 --> 00:48:14,773 Speaker 3: there was very little long term data about climate and 757 00:48:14,773 --> 00:48:17,853 Speaker 3: climate change. And until you know how much the climate 758 00:48:17,893 --> 00:48:20,853 Speaker 3: has changed in the past, you haven't got a hope 759 00:48:20,973 --> 00:48:25,493 Speaker 3: of getting to the mechanisms and then to predicting and 760 00:48:25,533 --> 00:48:29,773 Speaker 3: planning for the future. And so when I made these 761 00:48:29,893 --> 00:48:36,413 Speaker 3: arguments about decreasing population due to development, go and look 762 00:48:36,453 --> 00:48:40,133 Speaker 3: at the demographic transition and look at all the countries 763 00:48:40,173 --> 00:48:45,013 Speaker 3: where it has operated. Look at the countries where in 764 00:48:45,053 --> 00:48:47,813 Speaker 3: fact there are countries now and even parts of countries, 765 00:48:47,813 --> 00:48:52,613 Speaker 3: for example, Quebec here in Canada are paying parents to 766 00:48:52,613 --> 00:48:57,173 Speaker 3: have a third child because the demographic transition is so 767 00:48:57,333 --> 00:49:01,853 Speaker 3: effective that they can only maintain their workforce with immigration. 768 00:49:02,653 --> 00:49:10,373 Speaker 3: America is replacing a declining birth rate with immigration. And 769 00:49:10,853 --> 00:49:18,293 Speaker 3: so this is evidence of how effective our population control 770 00:49:18,373 --> 00:49:18,773 Speaker 3: can be. 771 00:49:18,973 --> 00:49:22,853 Speaker 2: All right, two more things. I don't know whether you've 772 00:49:22,893 --> 00:49:27,253 Speaker 2: seen it, but Japan has The Japanese Prime Minister has 773 00:49:28,653 --> 00:49:34,733 Speaker 2: announced I think yesterday that he's given approval for a 774 00:49:34,893 --> 00:49:38,413 Speaker 2: thirty percent increase, and they currently have one hundred coal 775 00:49:38,453 --> 00:49:42,253 Speaker 2: fired power plants in Japan a thirty percent entry, So 776 00:49:42,293 --> 00:49:47,013 Speaker 2: another thirty coal fled coal fired power plants to be 777 00:49:47,053 --> 00:49:54,173 Speaker 2: built in Japan. Well, what's what's going on then with 778 00:49:54,333 --> 00:49:57,933 Speaker 2: countries like ours, where where we're talking about the government's 779 00:49:57,973 --> 00:50:02,013 Speaker 2: talking about punishing everybody and doing their very best and 780 00:50:02,093 --> 00:50:09,613 Speaker 2: closing down infrastructure and searches for power sources, when Japan's 781 00:50:09,653 --> 00:50:11,813 Speaker 2: simply going to build another thirty CO five. 782 00:50:12,853 --> 00:50:18,053 Speaker 3: Well, of course, it's like with the people. Ultimately it's 783 00:50:18,093 --> 00:50:21,533 Speaker 3: yourself interest that you look after. You'll go along with 784 00:50:21,613 --> 00:50:23,573 Speaker 3: the group as long as you see some benefit and 785 00:50:23,653 --> 00:50:26,413 Speaker 3: you want to be part of the group, but ultimately 786 00:50:26,453 --> 00:50:30,733 Speaker 3: it's your own survival. Japan's problem has always been a 787 00:50:30,813 --> 00:50:34,773 Speaker 3: complete lack of resources. Japan has had to depend upon 788 00:50:34,933 --> 00:50:39,493 Speaker 3: imported resources, and in fact, back in the oil energy crisis, 789 00:50:39,533 --> 00:50:42,413 Speaker 3: back with the OPEC back in the eighties, what Japan 790 00:50:42,493 --> 00:50:49,173 Speaker 3: did was built huge inflatable rubberized containers and floated them 791 00:50:49,213 --> 00:50:52,013 Speaker 3: in all of the estuaries around Japan and filled them 792 00:50:52,053 --> 00:50:57,213 Speaker 3: up with oil so that they had in those containers 793 00:50:57,653 --> 00:51:01,533 Speaker 3: two years of oil supply in case they got cut 794 00:51:01,533 --> 00:51:04,733 Speaker 3: off from the rest of the world. Japan has always 795 00:51:04,733 --> 00:51:07,773 Speaker 3: had an energy problem. It's why they were quite happy, 796 00:51:07,853 --> 00:51:11,653 Speaker 3: despite what being the only country in the world to 797 00:51:11,813 --> 00:51:14,653 Speaker 3: suffer from the effects of the nuclear bomb, they were 798 00:51:14,733 --> 00:51:18,413 Speaker 3: quite happy to adopt nuclear power, and forty percent or 799 00:51:18,453 --> 00:51:22,853 Speaker 3: so of their power now comes from nuclear. The other 800 00:51:23,093 --> 00:51:28,333 Speaker 3: point about this is if they opened thirty coal burning plants. 801 00:51:28,613 --> 00:51:31,813 Speaker 3: First of all coal and this has been the case 802 00:51:31,853 --> 00:51:35,853 Speaker 3: now for at least sixty years. The technology to burn 803 00:51:35,933 --> 00:51:39,973 Speaker 3: coal perfectly clean has been around for at least sixty years. 804 00:51:40,293 --> 00:51:42,333 Speaker 3: In fact, there was a coal burning plant in the 805 00:51:42,333 --> 00:51:47,053 Speaker 3: middle William and Mary Campus University in the US that 806 00:51:48,413 --> 00:51:50,813 Speaker 3: students didn't even know it was a coal burning plant 807 00:51:51,253 --> 00:51:54,053 Speaker 3: because it was the first place where they experimented with 808 00:51:54,133 --> 00:51:59,093 Speaker 3: scrubbers and burning the coal clean. It never got adopted 809 00:51:59,253 --> 00:52:04,053 Speaker 3: to the national situation because at that time that they 810 00:52:04,093 --> 00:52:09,613 Speaker 3: were pushing it, they were Tristia bill was about three 811 00:52:09,693 --> 00:52:11,973 Speaker 3: hundred dollars a month and if they went to this 812 00:52:12,133 --> 00:52:16,013 Speaker 3: clean coal approach, it would lick more than double the 813 00:52:16,053 --> 00:52:18,653 Speaker 3: price of the energy, and no politician was willing to 814 00:52:18,693 --> 00:52:23,253 Speaker 3: do that. There are there are energy companies in the 815 00:52:23,333 --> 00:52:26,493 Speaker 3: US three and have got together and built a coal 816 00:52:26,533 --> 00:52:30,653 Speaker 3: burning plant in North Dakota that is completely cold. Uh, 817 00:52:30,813 --> 00:52:34,973 Speaker 3: you know, clean coal, free clean, Yeah, clean coal, But 818 00:52:35,333 --> 00:52:37,253 Speaker 3: people don't want to pay the price for it. There's 819 00:52:37,293 --> 00:52:40,733 Speaker 3: other alternate energies. The other point that I make is 820 00:52:40,813 --> 00:52:44,213 Speaker 3: so so Japan bills thirty coal burning plants, they would 821 00:52:44,253 --> 00:52:48,933 Speaker 3: be with complete scrubbers because they don't want to pollute themselves. 822 00:52:49,733 --> 00:52:54,133 Speaker 3: But that's not a fraction of what China's building every month. 823 00:52:55,573 --> 00:52:58,173 Speaker 3: And and so this is this is part of the 824 00:52:58,213 --> 00:53:04,813 Speaker 3: difficulty that unless you determine and can prove scientifically that 825 00:53:04,893 --> 00:53:07,533 Speaker 3: the CO two is a problem, and then you can 826 00:53:07,773 --> 00:53:12,933 Speaker 3: bring in legislation that is truly global in its adaptation, 827 00:53:13,813 --> 00:53:18,533 Speaker 3: then why would any country uh may you know have 828 00:53:19,053 --> 00:53:24,093 Speaker 3: produce electricity more expensive than it needs to? As I said, 829 00:53:24,293 --> 00:53:28,613 Speaker 3: if you if you could do this reduction unilaterally, fine, 830 00:53:28,693 --> 00:53:31,213 Speaker 3: but it ain't gonna happen. And it's never and it 831 00:53:31,533 --> 00:53:36,133 Speaker 3: has never happened, and and so as I said, there's 832 00:53:36,173 --> 00:53:42,733 Speaker 3: so much misinformation about uh energy production, coal production, uh 833 00:53:42,893 --> 00:53:44,493 Speaker 3: and so on and so forth. 834 00:53:45,053 --> 00:53:45,333 Speaker 1: Uh. 835 00:53:45,573 --> 00:53:48,213 Speaker 3: It's it's absolutely amazing. I mean, one of the one 836 00:53:48,213 --> 00:53:51,493 Speaker 3: of the pushes for for Antarctica and the reason the 837 00:53:51,573 --> 00:53:54,253 Speaker 3: U en several years ago said no, we're not going 838 00:53:54,293 --> 00:53:58,813 Speaker 3: to allow any resource extraction on Australia in Antarctica. Is 839 00:53:58,853 --> 00:54:02,093 Speaker 3: because there's some of the best massive coal scenes anywhere 840 00:54:02,093 --> 00:54:05,333 Speaker 3: in the world, and countries that had a slice of 841 00:54:05,373 --> 00:54:07,453 Speaker 3: Antarctica said hey, I'm going to go and drag the 842 00:54:07,453 --> 00:54:09,973 Speaker 3: coal out of there. And the UN had to step 843 00:54:10,013 --> 00:54:11,413 Speaker 3: in and say no, we're going to We're going to 844 00:54:11,493 --> 00:54:14,933 Speaker 3: pass the policy that there'll be no resource extraction out 845 00:54:14,933 --> 00:54:18,253 Speaker 3: of Antarctica. This is the sort of thing that people 846 00:54:18,293 --> 00:54:21,053 Speaker 3: don't even hear about about what's going on now. 847 00:54:21,213 --> 00:54:26,493 Speaker 2: Finally, September twenty three, the UN biggest meeting since on 848 00:54:26,933 --> 00:54:32,693 Speaker 2: climate since Paris. What's what would we expect from that? 849 00:54:34,693 --> 00:54:38,133 Speaker 3: Well, what they'll do is they'll can continue to push 850 00:54:38,733 --> 00:54:43,173 Speaker 3: that the global warming and the climate issue is, well, 851 00:54:43,573 --> 00:54:46,213 Speaker 3: what's the term an existential threat and all this nonsense. 852 00:54:47,333 --> 00:54:51,253 Speaker 3: But the numbers that they're using come from the Intercunmental 853 00:54:51,293 --> 00:54:54,893 Speaker 3: Panel on Climate Change, who only look at human causes 854 00:54:54,933 --> 00:54:57,853 Speaker 3: of climate change. So, in other words, they're going to 855 00:54:57,893 --> 00:55:03,933 Speaker 3: base a war policy on data that has been deliberately 856 00:55:04,733 --> 00:55:10,813 Speaker 3: restricted and created in order to justify the policy. It's 857 00:55:10,853 --> 00:55:14,813 Speaker 3: the most incestuous self serving system you could imagine, and 858 00:55:15,293 --> 00:55:17,693 Speaker 3: but that's what they'll do. They'll come out and say, Oh, 859 00:55:17,733 --> 00:55:20,133 Speaker 3: it's worse than we thought. We've got to act, We've 860 00:55:20,133 --> 00:55:22,693 Speaker 3: got to do this, We've got to do that. Meanwhile, 861 00:55:23,253 --> 00:55:27,213 Speaker 3: countries like China say, there, go away, we're going to 862 00:55:27,253 --> 00:55:27,853 Speaker 3: burn the call. 863 00:55:28,493 --> 00:55:33,093 Speaker 2: What would you what would you advise somebody who asks 864 00:55:33,173 --> 00:55:36,373 Speaker 2: you they know very little, but they want to know more. 865 00:55:37,333 --> 00:55:40,133 Speaker 2: What should they? Can you suggest a website? Can you 866 00:55:40,173 --> 00:55:43,733 Speaker 2: suggest I mean, you've got two books, but can you 867 00:55:43,773 --> 00:55:47,693 Speaker 2: suggest the best book and the best website that anyone 868 00:55:47,693 --> 00:55:51,693 Speaker 2: who wants to advance their knowledge of this could go to. 869 00:55:52,853 --> 00:55:56,653 Speaker 3: Well, that's the problem with it. There is no one 870 00:55:56,773 --> 00:56:00,693 Speaker 3: website because you're dealing with politics and you're dealing with science, 871 00:56:01,173 --> 00:56:05,733 Speaker 3: and in climate change, every single science is involved. I mean, 872 00:56:05,773 --> 00:56:07,853 Speaker 3: you look at the range of people that call themselves 873 00:56:07,933 --> 00:56:12,693 Speaker 3: climates scientists. They're everybody from hydrologists to atmospheric chemists and 874 00:56:12,733 --> 00:56:15,973 Speaker 3: so on. And so this is back to that problem 875 00:56:16,013 --> 00:56:19,973 Speaker 3: I mentioned at the beginning of the program, where the 876 00:56:20,013 --> 00:56:23,213 Speaker 3: atmosphere is a general thing, but everybody that's studying it 877 00:56:23,253 --> 00:56:25,373 Speaker 3: is only looking at one small piece of it as 878 00:56:25,413 --> 00:56:30,613 Speaker 3: an atmospheric specialist. And so some of the best websites 879 00:56:30,973 --> 00:56:35,173 Speaker 3: to go to. The one that is very very good 880 00:56:35,613 --> 00:56:42,733 Speaker 3: is what's up with that? Yes, because what Anthony does 881 00:56:42,813 --> 00:56:45,613 Speaker 3: is he tries to explain the science in a way 882 00:56:45,653 --> 00:56:51,173 Speaker 3: that people can understand and then also present political arguments 883 00:56:51,253 --> 00:56:54,893 Speaker 3: that are are relevant to the issue, so that that 884 00:56:55,053 --> 00:56:58,533 Speaker 3: is as good a website as Eddie. There's another one 885 00:56:58,613 --> 00:57:02,973 Speaker 3: called CO two Science. That's all one word CO two 886 00:57:03,813 --> 00:57:09,253 Speaker 3: Capitalists Science. CO two Science now that's run by Craig 887 00:57:09,733 --> 00:57:12,493 Speaker 3: is So and sure what it's so? And these are 888 00:57:12,573 --> 00:57:16,933 Speaker 3: people who have been specialist since CO two well Sherwood 889 00:57:16,973 --> 00:57:20,253 Speaker 3: for forty years at least that I know of, and 890 00:57:20,333 --> 00:57:24,053 Speaker 3: so they of course are the world experts on CO 891 00:57:24,373 --> 00:57:27,493 Speaker 3: two properties, what it can do, what it can't do, 892 00:57:28,053 --> 00:57:31,853 Speaker 3: and of course because they know, they also are aware 893 00:57:31,893 --> 00:57:34,613 Speaker 3: of all of the misinformation and lies that are out there. 894 00:57:35,013 --> 00:57:39,933 Speaker 3: So that's another superb site to go to. Unfortunately, I 895 00:57:40,493 --> 00:57:45,293 Speaker 3: because my site got hacked by people putting pornographic films 896 00:57:45,333 --> 00:57:48,213 Speaker 3: on there. I just quit trying to protect it and 897 00:57:48,293 --> 00:57:51,573 Speaker 3: took the site down. I'm debating whether I want to 898 00:57:51,613 --> 00:57:52,653 Speaker 3: put up another site. 899 00:57:52,693 --> 00:57:54,573 Speaker 2: When did you When did you do that? Because I tried, 900 00:57:54,613 --> 00:57:57,973 Speaker 2: I attempted to get onto it this morning before we spoke, 901 00:57:58,733 --> 00:58:01,213 Speaker 2: and yeah, it won't go anyway. 902 00:58:01,693 --> 00:58:03,493 Speaker 3: No, I took it out. I took it down two 903 00:58:03,533 --> 00:58:07,173 Speaker 3: days ago. And the reason is, I mean normally I say, okay, 904 00:58:07,213 --> 00:58:11,413 Speaker 3: adults at looking at it, the pornographic intrusions are no 905 00:58:11,533 --> 00:58:15,173 Speaker 3: big deal. But the problem is because of so many 906 00:58:15,293 --> 00:58:18,973 Speaker 3: children researching climate and climate change. You know, I mean 907 00:58:19,093 --> 00:58:23,613 Speaker 3: every every subject in school, they got an essay to 908 00:58:23,693 --> 00:58:27,733 Speaker 3: do on global warming. And so I just couldn't risk 909 00:58:29,853 --> 00:58:33,573 Speaker 3: having children click onto my site and see the pornographic site. 910 00:58:34,373 --> 00:58:37,573 Speaker 2: You've just touched on something that we won't go into today, 911 00:58:38,653 --> 00:58:41,493 Speaker 2: and that is the abuse of children. You know, I 912 00:58:42,773 --> 00:58:47,013 Speaker 2: get male from parents who was on my kid. My 913 00:58:47,173 --> 00:58:50,533 Speaker 2: kid tried to write an essay because he doesn't believe 914 00:58:50,573 --> 00:58:53,493 Speaker 2: it and I was told he'd fail if he did it. 915 00:58:53,613 --> 00:58:57,853 Speaker 3: Yep, yep. The child abuse that's going on in the 916 00:58:57,893 --> 00:59:02,213 Speaker 3: schools really needs to be examined. Schools of schools have 917 00:59:02,293 --> 00:59:08,453 Speaker 3: gone from places of of of well babysitting and one 918 00:59:08,573 --> 00:59:12,413 Speaker 3: level of education, they are now totally schools of indoctrination. 919 00:59:13,893 --> 00:59:18,413 Speaker 2: Very sad. Listen, once again, once again, I've got to 920 00:59:18,453 --> 00:59:21,413 Speaker 2: say thank you so much for your time. We did 921 00:59:21,453 --> 00:59:24,053 Speaker 2: what we did last time we've done an hour and 922 00:59:25,533 --> 00:59:28,093 Speaker 2: I'm thrilled with it. And you must get very weary 923 00:59:28,293 --> 00:59:31,453 Speaker 2: of doing all these interviews. But I'm so grateful and 924 00:59:31,453 --> 00:59:33,733 Speaker 2: I want to thank you very much, and again congratulations 925 00:59:33,733 --> 00:59:37,333 Speaker 2: on your recent award and the court victory. 926 00:59:38,093 --> 00:59:40,053 Speaker 3: Thanks for the opportunity. And by the way, late and 927 00:59:40,133 --> 00:59:42,573 Speaker 3: one of the things that the climate issue week is 928 00:59:42,573 --> 00:59:45,133 Speaker 3: a lot more we can talk about. But they're doing 929 00:59:45,173 --> 00:59:47,773 Speaker 3: what I said they would do. As the climate issue 930 00:59:47,853 --> 00:59:51,053 Speaker 3: is weakening, water is becoming the focus, You're going to 931 00:59:51,053 --> 00:59:53,533 Speaker 3: see a whole panic around the world about water and 932 00:59:53,573 --> 00:59:54,933 Speaker 3: water resources. 933 00:59:55,373 --> 00:59:58,333 Speaker 2: Well, lot, this is something to talk about. I'm happy 934 00:59:58,373 --> 01:00:00,573 Speaker 2: to engage with you again. 935 01:00:01,453 --> 01:00:04,693 Speaker 3: Good and I taught a course in water resources for 936 01:00:04,733 --> 01:00:08,973 Speaker 3: twenty five years and I served on several commissions on water, 937 01:00:09,133 --> 01:00:14,293 Speaker 3: so both at the federal and international level. So be 938 01:00:14,333 --> 01:00:16,693 Speaker 3: happy to talk about that topic too, so that people 939 01:00:16,733 --> 01:00:21,333 Speaker 3: can at least get some facts and formulate or sort 940 01:00:21,413 --> 01:00:23,533 Speaker 3: out whether they're hearing is true or not. 941 01:00:24,053 --> 01:00:27,293 Speaker 2: It's beautiful, Tim, Thank you so much. Thank you lying 942 01:00:27,613 --> 01:00:34,933 Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, Doctor Tim Ball. So there you have 943 01:00:35,053 --> 01:00:38,333 Speaker 2: it from doctor Tim Ball. Now I could talk I 944 01:00:38,373 --> 01:00:40,773 Speaker 2: could talk this particular topic every week and I could 945 01:00:40,813 --> 01:00:45,933 Speaker 2: fill this podcast up with individual scientists of his standing 946 01:00:46,053 --> 01:00:50,453 Speaker 2: and even higher, and there are some, and we could 947 01:00:50,493 --> 01:00:53,893 Speaker 2: just hammer it, but none of us want I want 948 01:00:53,893 --> 01:00:56,653 Speaker 2: to do that all the time. I don't, but I could, 949 01:00:56,973 --> 01:00:59,493 Speaker 2: because there are enough of them and they have various 950 01:00:59,533 --> 01:01:03,093 Speaker 2: things to say from different disciplines in science. Now, I 951 01:01:03,093 --> 01:01:05,653 Speaker 2: want to leave you this week with a little story 952 01:01:05,773 --> 01:01:08,813 Speaker 2: with well that has connections anti the meat move. It 953 01:01:08,853 --> 01:01:11,453 Speaker 2: is certainly gained by metum in recent years, with vegetarians 954 01:01:11,493 --> 01:01:13,333 Speaker 2: and vagans set to make up one quarter of the 955 01:01:13,413 --> 01:01:17,173 Speaker 2: UK population by twenty twenty five, and that's according to 956 01:01:17,173 --> 01:01:21,293 Speaker 2: an analysis by Sainsbury's. But a big study released last 957 01:01:21,293 --> 01:01:24,213 Speaker 2: week might just put the brakes on the rapidly accelerating 958 01:01:24,253 --> 01:01:28,693 Speaker 2: plant based trend. According to Oxford University research published by 959 01:01:28,693 --> 01:01:32,893 Speaker 2: the British Medical Journal, vegetarians and vagans have a twenty percent, 960 01:01:33,053 --> 01:01:36,573 Speaker 2: zero one and five percent higher risk of stroke than 961 01:01:36,613 --> 01:01:41,653 Speaker 2: those who regularly apply themselves with meat. The authors of 962 01:01:41,693 --> 01:01:45,413 Speaker 2: the study, which tracked almost fifty thousand Britains for eighteen years, 963 01:01:45,973 --> 01:01:49,693 Speaker 2: said this might be because veggies do not have enough 964 01:01:49,773 --> 01:01:54,093 Speaker 2: cholesterol in their blood. The finding flies on the face 965 01:01:54,133 --> 01:01:57,653 Speaker 2: of much conventional wisdom, which says that vegetarianism is a 966 01:01:57,693 --> 01:02:02,013 Speaker 2: healthy alternative to a carnivorous lifestyle. We are forever being 967 01:02:02,133 --> 01:02:05,933 Speaker 2: hected about the need, apparently for health and environmental reasons, 968 01:02:06,093 --> 01:02:10,253 Speaker 2: to cut back on red meat altogether. Nutritius say the 969 01:02:10,333 --> 01:02:13,533 Speaker 2: increased risk of stroke is just one of the many 970 01:02:13,573 --> 01:02:16,813 Speaker 2: health risks that any would be vegetarian should be made 971 01:02:16,813 --> 01:02:19,573 Speaker 2: aware of before they take the plunge. Now, it's a 972 01:02:19,653 --> 01:02:23,613 Speaker 2: lengthy article, but that's all I need to cover. But 973 01:02:23,653 --> 01:02:28,413 Speaker 2: can I leave you with one final thought. This belief 974 01:02:28,613 --> 01:02:30,853 Speaker 2: that there are too many people on the planet and 975 01:02:30,933 --> 01:02:34,933 Speaker 2: the desire to reduce the number of people by one 976 01:02:35,013 --> 01:02:41,013 Speaker 2: way or another just could fall into this category. You 977 01:02:41,053 --> 01:02:45,053 Speaker 2: imagine it. The encouragement is to get people off meat 978 01:02:45,453 --> 01:02:49,013 Speaker 2: and onto a plant based diet. With a twenty percent 979 01:02:49,133 --> 01:02:52,853 Speaker 2: increase in chance of stroke, wouldn't it be one fine 980 01:02:52,893 --> 01:02:55,173 Speaker 2: way to reduce the number of people on the planet, 981 01:02:55,853 --> 01:03:00,053 Speaker 2: especially as age catches up with people. So I leave 982 01:03:00,093 --> 01:03:02,453 Speaker 2: you with that thought, and the next time you jump 983 01:03:02,533 --> 01:03:05,453 Speaker 2: into a vagan or a vegetarian, ask them if they've 984 01:03:05,533 --> 01:03:08,253 Speaker 2: used up four of their five lives. We shall talk 985 01:03:08,333 --> 01:03:18,973 Speaker 2: again next week. Thank you for listening and take care. 986 01:03:19,213 --> 01:03:22,933 Speaker 1: Thank you for more from news Talks at b Listen 987 01:03:23,013 --> 01:03:25,973 Speaker 1: live on air or online, and keep our shows with 988 01:03:26,053 --> 01:03:29,213 Speaker 1: you wherever you go with our podcasts on iHeartRadio
