Anti-geoengineering is the new anti-vaxxer
Let's oppose the fake solutions to ill health: not the real ones
Neither vaccines nor Solar Radiation Management (SRM) are appropriate solutions to human illness or to Anthropogenic Climate Change (ACC). In fact, they are complete crap.
Vaccines and SRM are worse than useless, though they are very lucrative. Together with some Davos style scare-mongering about woke, dairy-free cities- vaccines and SRM enable the pharma, fossil fuel and animal ag cartels to continue to deflect from the actual causes of ACC and ill health…their own industries, pollution, malnutrition, poverty and inequality.
SRM is becoming a ‘respectable idea’ according to the Economist and is now Plan A. The original Plan A was a reduction in the lavish lifestyles, power and wealth of the 1% (who are responsible for 25% of emissions) caused by a break away from the stranglehold of petrochemical dominance. This was never, ever going to happen. An agenda by the elite controllers, you say, to thwart fossil fuel and animal ag and diminish their own pensions: you’ve got to be f-ing kidding me?
SRM will be a disaster and if the oligarchs think that they can avoid the consequences by living in unsprayed areas, then they are very sadly mistaken.
Opponents of SRM are already being set up as the new anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorists. According to the New York Times ‘Conspiracy Theorists and Vaccine Skeptics Have a New Target: Geoengineering. Around the country, people with a deep distrust of government want to preemptively ban the use of aerosols to reduce heat from the sun.’
From Roger Boyd: “Get ready for government ministers, “experts”, and industry leaders pushing the “inevitability” of having to use Solar Radiation Management, which will require a global level of oversight and cooperation; while many of the same people beat the drums of global conflict. The US establishment consensus is still being solidified, with the usual foundations (Ford, Rockefeller, Kellogg etc.) and think tanks (Carnegie, Brookings, Aspen, CSIS, Atlantic Council, Council of Foreign Relations etc.) acting as consensus building facilitators.”
I'm not sure that US establishment will be able to sell their SRM products to Russia and China who both developed their own ‘covid’ vaccines. The world has dramatically changed since the Russian SMO in 2022. I'm hoping that the isolation and economic collapse of the US will happen before SRM. However, BRICS will still be left with the problem of ACC and China’s green transition (to solar energy!) is not expected to reduce emissions sufficiently to avert disaster.
ACC is not a hoax in the same way that people getting ill and dying is not a hoax. Let’s not let the people responsible for the problems fool us into opposing real solutions to these problems.
Though I very much oppose their fake solutions of vaccines and SRM.
