Chattanooga's Climate Action Plan - Is It Really About Climate? - Chattanoogan.com

Mayor Tim Kelly's Climate Action Plan (SMART City) is part of a World Economic Forum and UN scheme for global government and population control. It’s called Agenda 2030 (originally Agenda 21, but when they didn’t achieve its goals by 2000, they changed it to 2030, the year by which they intend to have accomplished those goals).

No, I don’t wear a tinfoil hat, nor do I believe in conspiracy theories: I do research, and my research has revealed that these SMART Cities or 15-minute Cities are merely using the current climate hysteria as camouflage and leverage to impose surveillance, monitoring and control over Chattanooga citizens that is the exact opposite of the individual liberty and limited government on which our nation is founded.

If you follow the chain of the UN’s efforts, you find that a Canadian millionaire named Maurice Strong was the first under-secretary of the UN’s Environment Program, started in 1972.

In that capacity, Mr. Strong created the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the source of the Assessment Reports which are driving the idea that there is a “climate emergency.” Strong is credited with making the term “climate change” popular, borrowing it from the Club of Rome (where he was a board member) whose co-founder bragged in 1991 that they “came up with global warming” as a tactic to garner wide support for their global government and population control schemes. Strong’s mentor, who got him his first job at the UN, was David Rockefeller, the oil magnate well-known for his lifelong pursuit and support of global government, and for his funding for the Club of Rome and other globalist organizations. Klaus Schwab, chairman of the World Economic Forum, claims Strong as one of his biggest influences (Strong was on the WEF board), along with Henry Kissinger, a close friend of Rockefeller and who tutored Schwab at the Harvard Business School for two years.

Strong introduced to the world the concept of “sustainable development,” the umbrella terms for social equity, economic development environmental protection. But it’s economic development in the negative sense: as in cut back on industry and agriculture by eliminating use of fossil fuels, the lifeblood of the world’s economy for two hundred years. This is ostensibly to “save the planet,” but in reality it’s a redistribution of wealth plan to bring the prosperous western democracies down to the economic level of the developing nations: The UN is currently demanding that developed nations provide $2.5 to $4.5 Trillion per year to developing nations (the money being handled, of course, by the UN). That money would not bring the entire African continents and most of Asia, Indonesia and South America anywhere near prosperity, but it would reduce western civilization to third-world status. And that’s the actual intent, for when people or a nation depends on others for food, clothing, medicine, etc., they are much more compliant and pliable, which is what WEF chairman Schwab and the socialist Secretary General of the UN want.

The U.S. has long been the biggest barrier to UN and other globalists’ schemes, and by destroying our economy that barrier will be removed. The UN and WEF are now cooperating in the accelerated imposition of Agenda 2030, two-thirds of which President Clinton’s Council on Sustainable Development inserted into bureaucratic regulations, without the the input or vote of Congress. They’ve been working at this Agenda 21/2030 since 1992, and are now on the verge of realizing its achievement.

The climate emergency is merely a tool to dupe American citizens into giving up rights and freedoms to elitists like Strong, Schwab and their ilk. The planet doesn’t need saving…except from these would-be tyrants. If Mayor Kelly believes his Climate Action Plan is such a great thing for Chattanooga, why didn’t he put it before the people for a vote? Instead, he presented it to the City Council, who voted 5-2 to approve it, and it’s already being implemented: Those new LED streetlights? Notice that glass cylinder on top? Those are cameras, linked to facial recognition software (yes, like that widely used in Communist China) and license plate identification software, to record where Chattanoogans go and when and for how long. They’re currently at 139 intersections, and planned for more. Of course, he’ll say it’s for crime prevention, but a camera can only record what is happening or has happened, not prevent it.

The SMART meters (Surveillance-Monitoring-Analysis-Reporting-Technology) on your gas, electric and water meters…do you think bureaucrats won’t use the power to turn those down or off at their discretion during potential shortages (as happened last winter in Colorado for 11,000 citizens)? The mayor’s CAP is not about climate, but expanded government control.

State of Play

What began as a theory in the 1890s — that industrial emissions of carbon dioxide could increase global temperatures — had progressed to a scientific fact a century later. Scientists across a range of disciplines are studying the impact of the still-growing concentration of carbon dioxide and other so-called “greenhouse gases” in the atmosphere as they call for industrial and governmental policies to slow, then halt, the warming of the planet.
