Why the Russians Conceived the Global Warming Scam
One of my duties at Accuracy in Media (AIM) has been to
expose left-wingers in the media and Congress who were soft on the old
Soviet Union and are now acting like hard-liners on Vladimir Putin’s
Russia. It is a fascinating topic which exposes the duplicity of the
left-wing obsession with Russia.
These people, who were soft on the Soviet Union and now hard on
Russia, are the worst kind of hypocrites. Their hypocrisy is further
demonstrated by the abundant evidence that the global warming or climate
change theory, which they now embrace, was conceived by Soviet
communists as a means by which to destroy the industrial base in the
United States. This disinformation theme has been embraced by the
liberals now claiming to be tough on Russia.
Don’t take my word for it. When Natalie Grant Wraga died in 2002 at the age of 101, The Washington Post recognized her expertise
as a Soviet expert, noting that she was “born in czarist Russia, saw
great upheaval in her native land and became an expert in unmasking
Soviet deception methods for the State Department…”
But the Post would not admit that fact in today’s political climate.
The liberal Economist magazine wrote,
“She was perhaps the only person alive in the West who could claim such
an intimate knowledge of Russian political thinking, from tsarist times
to the collapse of the Soviet Union.” She commented, “Many people are
studying the past, but very few are studying the present. Keep your eyes
open and your ears open.”
This is good advice. One of the great Soviet/Russian deceptions,
Wraga wrote, was the idea that humans were changing the climate and that
humans could save the earth through socialism. She said, “…protection
of the environment has become the principal tool for attack against the
West.”
In her 1998 article, “Green Cross: Gorbachev and Enviro-Communism,”
Wraga, who dropped her last name and wrote under the byline Natalie
Grant, explains in detail how the Soviet deception campaign, using the
climate as an organizing tool, was developed. It was launched after the
so-called collapse of the Soviet state, when Mikhail Gorbachev, the last
Soviet president, embarked on an environmental crusade, using the
United Nations and other international organizations.
The veteran journalist Wes Vernon wrote about Grant’s research in this area, in an article entitled, “The Marxist Roots of the Global Warming Scare.”
The big event, as Grant called it, was a Moscow conference in January, 1990. As Time magazine described
it, “At a meeting of the Global Forum in Moscow in 1990, when he was
still Soviet President, Gorbachev proposed an organization roughly
analogous to the International Red Cross to contend with environmental
problems that cross national boundaries.” Among the guests and speakers
was then-U.S. senator and future vice president Al Gore.
Talk about “collusion” with the Russians! Where was the FBI investigation?
The collusion took place through the Global Forum and various United
Nations conferences, including the Earth Summit of 1992, giving rise to
the concept of “sustainable development,” another way to describe
socialism.
Grant wrote, “Protection of the environment may be used as a pretext
to adopt a series of measures designed to undermine the industrial base
of developed nations. It may also serve to introduce malaise by lowering
their standard of living and implanting communist values.”
Grant predicted how this campaign would proceed, using “nightmarish”
pictures of floods, scorched earth, disease and death, unless drastic
action was taken at the international level to curb industrial activity
in the capitalist West.
She said the campaign would be driven by Moscow’s sympathizers or
dupes in “science,” academia, “and the slavishly obedient Establishment
media,” all for the purpose of forcing the United States and other
Western countries “to accept measures and regulations harmful to the
Western world.”
In short, for communism to succeed, capitalism would have to be
portrayed as based on exploitation—but not of man, as the old Marxist
theory held. Rather, capitalism was now exploiting the earth! The whole
purpose of this dogma has been to inhibit global capitalism, the only
system that has proven capable of meeting the growing needs of expanding
populations. But this time the claim was that human economic progress
threatened the environment because of the capitalist model on which it
was based.
Hence, President Obama’s Paris climate change agreement was designed
to curtail U.S. industrial expansion while sending foreign aid to the
rest of the world. It was a Marxist plan that benefited Russia, a major
oil and gas producer.
On June 1, when he announced pulling out of the climate change
agreement, President Donald Trump put his finger on the key problem,
which was deliberately part of the plan. He attacked
“the draconian financial and economic burdens the agreement imposes on
our country” while creating a so-called Green Climate Fund which would
cost the United States “a vast fortune” to be sent to the other nations
of the world.
In other words, Trump’s pull-out from the agreement works AGAINST Russian interests and those of the global socialists.
Nevertheless, the propaganda campaign continues. In July, Netflix releases the film “Chasing Coral,”
which attempts to blame man for “dramatically changing” and losing
coral reefs in the world’s oceans on a global scale. With carbon
emissions said to be “warming the seas,” the audience will be told of
the “catastrophe” that is “silently raging underwater” unless we wake up
and dramatically restrict our lifestyles.
Meanwhile, Ohio State University has released a “study” in the Journal of Peace Research suggesting that climate change could lead to “food violence.” One of the authors is quoted in an Ohio State University press release
as saying, “Development aid is important now and it is likely to be
even more important in the future as we look for ways to increase
climate resilience.”
In other words, the United States must pay more to the other nations of the world. This is global socialism.
It looks like the “nightmarish” scenarios predicted by Natalie Grant are not yet at an end.
But when will the liberals wake up? Answer: they won’t. Like James
Hodgkinson, a true believer in the global warming theory, they want to
“tax the rich” in their own country and will shoot to kill those who
stand in the way of this global redistribution scheme.
