committeeconstructivetomorrowcfactorg--2020-10-24--Joe Biden challenge: Spend a month without fossil fuels

Joe Biden wants to get rid of fossil fuels .
This is a position that is either ignorant of facts , or simply preying on the lack of knowledge people have on this matter .
IT IS NOT JUST ENERGY APPARENTLY , HE HAS NO IDEA HOW MANY PRODUCTS THAT MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER RELY ON PETROLEUM !
Its not just the idea we are getting off fossil fuels as a source of energy .
Products that are directly produced with petroleum or derivatives of petroleum are not even thought of by the average person , who is being indoctrinated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ does not understand this , or he does and is preying on the lack of knowledge on this matter by an increasingly indoctrinated public .
So here is the challenge to Joe Biden , Win lose or draw in the upcoming election , I want you your family , and staff to spend 1 month off anything that has a link to fossil fuels .
Here is a list and is still not a full one , but is a start .
Does he understand what the elimination of the petroleum industry means @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nod and smile by supporters .
They have no idea what they are doing and what is most disturbing is either Joe Biden does not , or he does and is still advocating all this .
And does he think for one second that other countries are not simply going to laugh at all this , and step in and do whatever they want ?
To quote him “ C ’ mon man ” I appreciate in this case Joe Bidens honesty , but it reveals the shallowness of his position .
Or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the average person does not look at the list above , just trusts someone that can smile and look in the camera and say he is from Scranton and Claymont , and so trust me .
His quote from one of his interviews .
“ I guarantee we are going to eliminate fossil fuels ” So this is not really about saving the climate or whatever .
We can adapt no matter what the cause if it is a threat .
When someone running on this platform , no matter how much he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it , is doing this , there has to be another agenda .
And be it Covid , medicare , social security , climate or whatever , the fear industry is hard at work .
That is not to say there is no reason for concern and attempts at problem solving .
It is to say the shallow idea of getting rid of the lifeline of the American economy energy wise , YET ALONE THE LIST ABOVE , shows it is designed to simply prey on those who have not stopped to think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing things to collapse the lifeline of this country , then one has to question who your loyalties are really to .
In my book , the Weaponization of Weather in the Phony Climate War , I specifically dedicate a chapter to addressing the fear , whether I believe it or not , that Joe Biden and his crew are pushing on climate .
Instead of spending trillions on combatting what may or may not be a problem , plant trees , build nuclear power plants and use Carbon Capture .
All 3 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would have little effect on the economy .
But the microcosm of this was Biden bringing up people living in the shadow of petrochemical plants that are getting sick .
His solution : Do away with entire oil industry and cause more misery for more people .
The simple fix and far less costly is to offer to relocate people in an area that is not in the shadow of these plants .
And by the way , those fumes you see are not co2 .
That is colorless and odorless and is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you may want to convince people it is .
So when Joe Biden says all these plants are throwing pollutants in the air and affecting the health of the people , which may be true , its NOT CO2 YOU SEE .
No one is against the continued cleaning up of particulate matter , which the United States is a leader in , and China , which has been linked to Joe Biden , is the most egregious example of how to pollute .
So Joe Biden ’ s solution is to destroy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other things brought up above , and do it without people stopping to think about what they are voting for .
This is amazing .
His whole energy policy has been tried in other countries and failed miserably ( Spain and Germany for instance ) Failing miserably also is the socialist agendas which no matter how he wants to deceive people , he is covering for .
He is not the so called “ old Joe ” , with the exception of the fact that he still is deceptive on what he says @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 1987 and lying about grades and insulting someone when he was questioned , to a higher level , that preys on people that do not have the time to look at the entire picture .
But back in those days and objective press would not let someone get away with that .
Sadly that day is gone Lest you think I am some kind of heartless monster about people living in the shadow of the refineries , let me relay this story .
My family in Rhode island in the 60s lived @ @ @ @ @ @ @ industry around .
Many wound up with cancer , and other sicknesses .
I have no doubt that air quality in that area was a factor and by the way it is cleaned up now .
My uncle John Conforti , as true a democrat as there was , and I must confess , I was , and still a personal hero to me , got up and blasted the Cranston City council about just allowing industry to run rampant and worship the almighty dollar .
Joe Biden has his Scranton stories , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ again I am not running for president .
But Uncle John had good reason , since one of the plants blew up in the early 1970s , proving him right about what was going on .
My point is Joe Biden was using something where we now have a far better solution , ignoring that , and then saying he is going to shut down an industry which he plainly has NO IDEA ( and if he does , its even worse ) that besides helping fuel your cars ( btw where is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ these charging stations , which take hours to use anyway ) has many products are involved in the petrochemical industry that make our lives easier .
I dare him , his family and his staff to take a month off from fossil fuels and all they have to do with everyday life .
But it is the same story over and over again and unless people wake up and actually do the work to look behind what they are being told , these things are going to come to pass .
And once @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turning back .
As for me , I am not taking my own challenge .
Because I can not do it .
But then again , I know how vital that link is , and I am not the one that is basically advocating not for a so called “ progressive policy ” , but is the opposite .
But then again that is the smoke and mirrors that has been a mainstay of this whole agenda , and if one looks closely , was exposed in the debate Thursday night .

Joe Biden wants to get rid of fossil fuels. This is a position that is either ignorant of facts, or simply preying on the lack of knowledge people have on this matter. IT IS NOT JUST ENERGY APPARENTLY, HE HAS NO IDEA HOW MANY PRODUCTS THAT MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER RELY ON PETROLEUM!

Either Joe Biden does not understand this, or he does and is preying on the lack of knowledge on this matter by an increasingly indoctrinated public.
So here is the challenge to Joe Biden, win, lose or draw in the upcoming election, I want you your family and staff to spend 1 month off anything that has a link to fossil fuels.
Here is a list and it is still not a full one, but is a start.

Does he understand what the elimination of the petroleum industry means, beyond the obvious? Yet its nod and smile by supporters. They have no idea what they are doing and what is most disturbing is either Joe Biden does not, or he does, and is still advocating this.
Does he think for one second that other countries are not simply going to laugh at all this, step in and do whatever they want? To quote him, “C’mon man!” I appreciate in this case Joe Bidens honesty, but it reveals the shallowness of his position. Or maybe not. Maybe he just knows the average person does not look at the list above, just trusts someone that can smile and look in the camera and say he is from Scranton and Claymont, so trust me.
His quote from one of his interviews. “I guarantee we are going to eliminate fossil fuels”.

It is to say the shallow idea of getting rid of the lifeline of the American economy energy wise, YET ALONE THE LIST ABOVE, shows it is designed to simply prey on those who have not stopped to think about this. If you are doing things to collapse the lifeline of this country, then one has to question to whom your loyalties lie.
In my book, The Weaponization of Weather in the Phony Climate War, I specifically dedicate a chapter to addressing the fear, whether I believe it or not, that Joe Biden and his crew are pushing on climate. Instead of spending trillions on combatting what may or may not be a problem, plant trees, build nuclear power plants and use Carbon Capture. All 3 are necessary goods for all concerned and would have little effect on the economy. But the microcosm of this was Biden bringing up people living in the shadow of petrochemical plants that are getting sick. His solution: Do away with entire oil industry and cause more misery for more people. The simple fix and far less costly is to offer to relocate people in an area that is not in the shadow of these plants. And by the way, those fumes you see are not CO2.

But back in those days an objective press would not let someone get away with that. Sadly that day is gone.
Lest you think I am some kind of heartless monster about people living in the shadow of the refineries, let me relay this story. In Rhode Island in the 60s, my family lived in the area of Cranston with much industry around. Many wound up with cancer, and other sicknesses. I have no doubt that air quality in that area was a factor and by the way, it is cleaned up now. My uncle John Conforti, as true a democrat as there was, and I must confess, I was, and still a personal hero to me, got up and blasted the Cranston City council about just allowing industry to run rampant and worship the almighty dollar.

But Uncle John had good reason, since one of the plants blew up in the early 1970s, proving him right about what was happening. My point is Joe Biden was using something where we now have a far better solution, ignoring that, and then saying he is going to shut down an industry which he plainly has NO IDEA (and if he does, its even worse).
That besides helping fuel your cars (btw where is all the electricity coming from for all these charging stations, which take hours to use anyway) has many products involved in the petrochemical industry that make our lives easier. I dare him, his family and his staff to take a month off from fossil fuels and all they have to do with everyday life. But it is the same story over and over again and unless people wake up and actually do the work to look behind what they are being told, these things are going to come to pass.

committeeconstructivetomorrowcfactorg--2020-10-24--Africa’s priority: Unrestricted energy development

Africa has been recording fast economic growth in the last two decades , with an average annual GDP growth of 4.6 % ( 2000-2016 ) .
However , that has not been sufficient to meet the developmental goals and poverty is again on the rise .
In recent years , poverty rose slightly in Africa for the first time in more than a decade , especially in countries like South Africa , Niger and Uganda .
To make things more challenging , COVID-19 has had a negative effect on the GDP .
The GDP of South Africa—the most economically developed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the first quarter of 2020 compared to the previous quarter .
Like any other developing country , the countries in Africa depend on a strong energy sector to propel their economy .
But economic recovery in the midst of an existing situation of energy poverty is not easy .
The overall electrification in Sub-Saharan Africa stands at just 52 percent , lower than many developing countries .
Increase in commodity trade and development assistance from international agencies have been the major propellers of development in Africa .
But that is not sustainable in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a strong energy sector that can spur a growth in its industrial sector and also increased agricultural productivity .
While the improvement in agrarian sector will ensure stability in local food demand , a robust energy sector will act as the backbone of its future economy .

In my country of Tanzania , we are going to use our natural resources because we have reserves which go beyond 5 billion tons.

Africa must be allowed to use the resources it has to pull itself out of energy poverty that has been keeping it way behind rest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down the line , Africa finds itself in a very hostile world where there increasing difficulty in finding the capital to initiate and maintain their fossil fuel projects .

Private firms are also pulling out of fossil fuel projects in order to comply with the pro-renewable policy shift in Europe and Americas .
One of the largest proposed coal power plant in East Africa is currently on hold , as the Lamu coal power plant is entangled in a legal battle .

But economic recovery in the midst of an existing situation of energy poverty is not easy. The overall electrification in Sub-Saharan Africa stands at just 52 percent, lower than many developing countries.
The Way Forward
Increase in commodity trade and development assistance from international agencies have been the major propellers of development in Africa. But that is not sustainable in the future.
What Africa needs is a strong energy sector that can spur a growth in its industrial sector and also increased agricultural productivity. While the improvement in agrarian sector will ensure stability in local food demand, a robust energy sector will act as the backbone of its future economy.
In a 2014 U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit, Nigeria’s power minister Chinedu Ositadinma Nebo said, “I think Africa should be allowed to develop its coal potential. This is very critical. There are so many areas in Africa that will help to generate power for the over 60 percent of Africans that have no access to energy at all.”
His Tanzanian counterpart said, “We in Africa, we should not be in the discussion of whether we should use coal or not. In my country of Tanzania, we are going to use our natural resources because we have reserves which go beyond 5 billion tons.”
Both of them were right. Africa must be allowed to use the resources it has to pull itself out of energy poverty that has been keeping it way behind rest of the world.
But six years down the line, Africa finds itself in a very hostile world where there increasing difficulty in finding the capital to initiate and maintain their fossil fuel projects.
Anti-Coal Movement and The Sudden Investment Void
The World Bank Group that is financing coal projects is under pressure to discontinue its investment in fossil fuel projects. Only China remains as an active investor in major new fossil fuel projects in Africa.
Major international funders are beginning to withdraw funding for fossil fuel projects and enforce their pro-renewable policies. The African Development Bank announced in 2019 that it will no longer finance coal projects.
Norway excluded Africa’s biggest commodity firms from its $1 trillion wealth fund, in an effort to ensure that the fossil fuel sector does not receive Norwegian investment.
Private firms are also pulling out of fossil fuel projects in order to comply with the pro-renewable policy shift in Europe and Americas. One of the largest proposed coal power plant in East Africa is currently on hold, as the Lamu coal power plant is entangled in a legal battle.
In September this year, it faced further setbacks after the infrastructure provider General Electric chose to exit the project because of its new public policy of not aiding any new coal power projects.

South Africa’s Eskom remains the largest energy producing company in the continent with about 50GW of installed capacity. Despite that, Eskom has faced significant challenges with its aging power distribution network, the growing demand-supply gap, and a host of other problems.

Eskom is working tirelessly to fix the flaws in its aging coal fired plants in order to help them run at their full capacity. It has also decided to source electricity from independent power producers, which includes 3,000 MW of gas and 1,500 MW of coal.
Meanwhile, automation and digitization have helped mining operators in the country to enhance production. The proposed use of advanced wireless communication devices and machine control technology are examples of efforts aimed at increasing efficiency at mines.
Coal is also attracting traction in neighboring countries. In July, Zimbabwe’s largest thermal coal producer announced that it has clearance to produce 3 million tonnes of coal every year and would continue to do so for the next 48 years.
Besides fossil fuels, South Africa has also begun consulting nuclear power reactors suppliers for its ambitious 2,500MW Nuclear programme, which it believe will help address the huge demand-supply gap. The nation has already invested heavily (USD 1.2 billion) in reviving and prolonging the life of its only operational nuclear power plant in Cape Town.
Time to Liberate Africans from Energy Poverty
South Africa’s problems, despite being one of the most advanced country in Africa, is a wakeup call for the policy makers and leadership in other countries.
The opponents of fossil fuel projects have not provided solutions in alternate sources that could deliver the same type of stable electricity that coal projects would. Yet, they propose a ban on new fossil fuel projects in Africa, a move that can curtail developmental goals for many more decades.
According to Steve Chakerian from Northeast Group LLC, “Sub-Saharan Africa’s economic development remains tied to sustained growth in the power sector.

Coddling China: When will it end?

What is it about China that enables the world ’ s most populous nation such a favorite of the international globalist , socialist community ( while lambasting Russia , which officially abandoned communism three decades ago ) ?
In 1997 , six years after the demise of the Soviet Union , China was granted an exemption from any obligations to reduce carbon dioxide emissions under the Kyoto Protocol ( as was India ) on grounds that it was a “ developing nation.
” And despite the posturing over the Paris climate agreement , China ’ s CO emissions soared while @ @ @ @ @ @ @ signature was still wet .
One reason cited by President Trump for pulling the U.S. out was that the Paris accords committed the U.S. to massive , immediate CO emission reductions ( 26 to 28 percent by 2025 ) .
China only committed to its previously announced goal to increase non-fossil-fuel electricity to about 20 percent by 2030 .
China today , with the world ’ s 59th highest per capita income ( IMF data , with India at No .
139 ) , is building or planning over 300 coal-fired power plants @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Vietnam , Indonesia , Bangladesh , Egypt , and the Philippines .
The world ’ s leading emitter of CO is also building what Wired calls “ an insane number ” of new coal-fired power plants at home with little objection from the gatekeepers at the United Nations .
Meanwhile , over half of the people in sub-Saharan Africa lack access to electricity , largely because the United Nations ’ “ sustainable development goals ” dissuade investment in coal , natural gas , or even nuclear power plants while favoring dung , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in nations without electric grids or highways ) .
According to Human Rights Watch , China ’ s government sees human rights as an “ existential threat , ” a stance which “ could pose an existential threat to the rights of people worldwide.
” The Nobel Peace Prize winning organization says that the Chinese Communist Party “ has constructed an Orwellian high-tech surveillance state and a sophisticated internet censorship system to monitor and suppress public criticism.
” Human Rights Watch singled out “ a void of leadership among countries that might have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disappointing collection of democracies willing to sell the rope that is strangling the system of rights they purport to uphold.
” And now , with massive help from Facebook , Twitter , Reddit , Google , and other willing collaborators , the Chinese Communists are aiding and abetting a recipient of Chinese largesse , a veteran of coddling China , to this nation ’ s highest office .
[ One example : Hunter Biden worked with Chinese investors to fund China General Nuclear Power Corp. , a firm recently charged by the FBI @ @ @ @ @ @ @ States . ]
These organizations , hiding behind the façade of “ private enterprise , ” have led an assault on First Amendment freedom of speech by censoring content unfavorable to their causes .
[ These same organizations never objected to infringement of the rights of an Oregon bakery ’ s First Amendment claim regarding baking a cake . ]
They have been joined by Democratic governors who , with no legislative directives , used the cover of COVID 19 to impose outright bans on church attendance – even Bible studies in private @ @ @ @ @ @ @ while sanctioning violent protests .
Universities have imposed Draconian bans on freedom of speech , assembly , religion , and other rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution .
Others now insist that the Constitution itself is outdated and should be immediately replaced – along with all of its protections for the individual against the imperial state .
The whole world knows very well that China wants to see Joe Biden in the White House .
Perhaps that is why Democrats have unilaterally attacked “ Russian interference ” with the U.S. elections and totally @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Chinese government .
Brand new evidence of Chinese collusion came to light with the revelation ( with more new shocking evidence daily ) that Chinese communists are advising Facebook on how to censor , de-platform , and shadow ban information that might favor the Republican candidate or cast the Democratic candidate in a poor light .
Iranian-American journalist Sorrab Ahmari obtained ( and confirmed ) information from a Facebook insider that the social media giant ’ s “ Hate Speech Engineering ” team is loaded with Chinese PhD ’ s whose specialty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ computers how to learn and act without being explicitly programmed so that certain content ends up at the top of the news feed and other content shows up “ dead last.
” While a Facebook spokesperson haughtily condemned any suggestion that “ these employees have an outsized influence on our broader policies ” as “ absurd , ” Ahmari is quite correct in asking what ’ s to stop these Chinese engineers from delivering intelligence to the Chinese government ?
Facebook ’ s total ban on negative information on the Biden family ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a strong indicator that the company is serving China ’ s interests in securing the election of ” the Big Guy.
” According to a new Project Veritas exposé , Google ( now facing a federal antitrust case* ) is intentionally manipulating results in order to benefit Democrats and to hinder President Trump ’ s campaign .
[ *The Justice Department , together with the Attorneys General of 11 states , alleges in a nonpartisan case that , “ For years , Google has entered into exclusionary agreements , including tying arrangements , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up distribution channels and block rivals.
” ] Despite the angst of the intellectuals , the media , the socialists , and many leaders of the Democratic Party , a new poll announced by the Centre for Strategic and International Studies .
( CSIS ) found that a majority of Americans view China negatively and believe ( along with Human Rights Watch ) that it is the country that presents the greatest threat to the United States ( and the rights of the individual ) .
The broad-based support for banning China ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ worldwide concerns over Chinese human rights violations .
Scott Kennedy , Chinese business and economics chair at CSIS , asserted that “ Americans and others around the world have given up on the idea that the goal should be to change China into a free-market economy.
” A recent article by MSN News noted that historically , Joe Biden had embraced the idea that the U.S. could coax China into acting as a “ responsible stakeholder , ” but that he no longer adheres to that viewpoint .
The former Vice President has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his China policy , though he did claim he would end the Trump tariffs on Chinese imports .
But that statement was almost immediately walked back by aides to clarify that Biden would only “ reevaluate the tariffs upon taking office.
” The acceptance by the Biden-Harris campaign and many of its supporters of Chinese-style restrictions on human rights may be a signal that the U.S. Democratic Party sees the Xi-led Chinese Communist Party as a kindred spirit .
Yet , despite the near-total media blackout on the recent revelations regarding the Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) interests , a President Biden might have to show a new toughness against China to put out what could become a raging forest fire of California proportions .
Too many Americans are not willing to see jobs recently regained from slave laborers be returned to the Middle Kingdom .
That is , unless the Democrats and their social media and old media allies have perfected censorship enough to drown out any legitimate opposition that would threaten their absolute reign .
And if that happens , who will dare challenge China ’ s @ @ @

The world’s leading emitter of CO 2 is also building what Wired calls “an insane number” of new coal-fired power plants at home with little objection from the gatekeepers at the United Nations.
Meanwhile, over half of the people in sub-Saharan Africa lack access to electricity, largely because the United Nations’ “sustainable development goals” dissuade investment in coal, natural gas, or even nuclear power plants while favoring dung, wood, wind, and solar (in nations without electric grids or highways).

These organizations, hiding behind the façade of “private enterprise,” have led an assault on First Amendment freedom of speech by censoring content unfavorable to their causes. [These same organizations never objected to infringement of the rights of an Oregon bakery’s First Amendment claim regarding baking a cake.]
They have been joined by Democratic governors who, with no legislative directives, used the cover of COVID 19 to impose outright bans on church attendance – even Bible studies in private homes – and to destroy selected businesses while sanctioning violent protests.
Universities have imposed Draconian bans on freedom of speech, assembly, religion, and other rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. Others now insist that the Constitution itself is outdated and should be immediately replaced – along with all of its protections for the individual against the imperial state.
The whole world knows very well that China wants to see Joe Biden in the White House. Perhaps that is why Democrats have unilaterally attacked “Russian interference” with the U.S. elections and totally ignored the massive contributions being made by the Chinese government.
Brand new evidence of Chinese collusion came to light with the revelation (with more new shocking evidence daily) that Chinese communists are advising Facebook on how to censor, de-platform, and shadow ban information that might favor the Republican candidate or cast the Democratic candidate in a poor light.
Iranian-American journalist Sorrab Ahmari obtained (and confirmed) information from a Facebook insider that the social media giant’s “Hate Speech Engineering” team is loaded with Chinese PhD’s whose specialty is “machine learning” – teaching computers how to learn and act without being explicitly programmed so that certain content ends up at the top of the news feed and other content shows up “dead last.”
While a Facebook spokesperson haughtily condemned any suggestion that “these employees have an outsized influence on our broader policies” as “absurd,” Ahmari is quite correct in asking what’s to stop these Chinese engineers from delivering intelligence to the Chinese government?
Facebook’s total ban on negative information on the Biden family’s business dealings with Chinese companies is a strong indicator that the company is serving China’s interests in securing the election of ”the Big Guy.” According to a new Project Veritas exposé, Google (now facing a federal antitrust case*) is intentionally manipulating results in order to benefit Democrats and to hinder President Trump’s campaign.
[*The Justice Department, together with the Attorneys General of 11 states, alleges in a nonpartisan case that, “For years, Google has entered into exclusionary agreements, including tying arrangements, and engaged in anticompetitive conduct to lock up distribution channels and block rivals.”]
Despite the angst of the intellectuals, the media, the socialists, and many leaders of the Democratic Party, a new poll announced by the Centre for Strategic and International Studies. (CSIS) found that a majority of Americans view China negatively and believe (along with Human Rights Watch) that it is the country that presents the greatest threat to the United States (and the rights of the individual).
The broad-based support for banning China’s Huawei Technologies from 5G networks reflects worldwide concerns over Chinese human rights violations. Scott Kennedy, Chinese business and economics chair at CSIS, asserted that “Americans and others around the world have given up on the idea that the goal should be to change China into a free-market economy.”
A recent article by MSN News noted that historically, Joe Biden had embraced the idea that the U.S. could coax China into acting as a “responsible stakeholder,” but that he no longer adheres to that viewpoint.
The former Vice President has taken few questions from the media about his China policy, though he did claim he would end the Trump tariffs on Chinese imports. But that statement was almost immediately walked back by aides to clarify that Biden would only “reevaluate the tariffs upon taking office.”
The acceptance by the Biden-Harris campaign and many of its supporters of Chinese-style restrictions on human rights may be a signal that the U.S. Democratic Party sees the Xi-led Chinese Communist Party as a kindred spirit.
Yet, despite the near-total media blackout on the recent revelations regarding the Biden family and Chinese business (hence military) interests, a President Biden might have to show a new toughness against China to put out what could become a raging forest fire of California proportions. Too many Americans are not willing to see jobs recently regained from slave laborers be returned to the Middle Kingdom.
That is, unless the Democrats and their social media and old media allies have perfected censorship enough to drown out any legitimate opposition that would threaten their absolute reign.
And if that happens, who will dare challenge China’s environmental callousness?

If Biden wants to save the world, he would be best to direct his personal energies toward the subject of reducing deaths in poor countries mostly from oil and gas starved countries, that are experiencing 11 million child deaths every year. Those underdeveloped locations in the world have minimal access to the products that support medical industries in the wealthier and healthier developed countries, as most of those young fatalities are mainly from preventable causes of diarrhea, malaria, neonatal infection, pneumonia, preterm delivery, or lack of oxygen at birth.

committeeconstructivetomorrowcfactorg--2020-10-26--Some examples where weather may have changed history

I am a political junkie , I have been since I was 5 years old .
There were 2 things I loved ( besides my family ) when I was 5 The weather and John Kennedy .
I was the entertainment at my parents ’ parties .
getting up on the hassock and imitating JFK ” Ask not what your country and do for you , but ask what you can do for your country ” .
The I had to go to bed , cause my bedtime was 7 In any case Rasmussen Oct 21 had the approval rating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the date .
But the October surprise was not yet to come , though this is the anniversary of the first weatherbell.com map of a landfalling hurricane on the NJ coast !
Oct. 21 was a Sunday afternoon and the tropical update went out forecasting the tropical wave in the eastern Caribbean to develop and then follow the path the Euro , which did a great job on Sandy , up into the east coast .
I often refer to this as getting the maps from Hazel , though displaced a bit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Sandy was the October surprise .
After all there was very little dirt you could dig up on Romney.. ( perhaps that he soaped someones windows or cut someones hair ) So this was a weather surprise as far as the political realm goes , but if you were a subscriber it certainly was not , and in fact probably had your juices flowing from over a week out .
How did it change the course of history ?
The grace that the president handled Sandy and the co-operation with the governor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to this disaster .
We saw some of that at the start of COVID with the rapid building of hospitals in NY but of course that was not long for this world and was not weather related .
But Sandy and the 2012 election were.. Romney had to stop campaigning for 3 days ( and that showed class ) but it was the president that really stood out with the Governor of NJ .
If no Sandy things may have been different .
I cant really say , but I can say that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opinion of how to react when called upon and I do think it tipped the scale a bit .
But I think Sandy changed the course of history since a change in the top may have led to a different turn of events from that time on .
Who knows where would have been today ?
How about JFK ?
The rain cleared out that morning .
What if it had not ( as all the forecasts the night before had , that it was going to be rainy cold day in Dallas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ top of the motorcade would have been up .
No clear shot at the president by the shooter ( s ? )
Given JFKs love and admiration for MacArthur who always cautioned against a land war in Asia , who knows if we would have committed to Vietnam the way we did .
And IMO Vietnam was the end of the innocence in the public- gvt relationship , as the nation grew much more cynical after that .
The Battle of the Bulge .
If not for the arrival of the cold high @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of all the mud , one has to wonder if the Germans would have dug in and held on all winter .
slowing the advance in the spring enough so the German scientists , who were closing in on their own nuclear weapons , would have had the time to get there .
Of course its always assumed that this was the case , but at the very least , the freezing up of the roads led to a faster resolution of the problem .
Of course D-Day speaks loudly for itself .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ and one I wonder every day , given what they had , if I could have made .
9/11 .
The large hurricane that was offshore was far enough away so the surface ridge to the west was in perfect shape to provide what , for most people , was a spectacular September day in the ne .
But that same great weather ( odd isnt it , like the 2 examples above , Its the leaving of bad weather that led to the problems ) made the conditions perfect for the hideous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hurricane were closer in , the resultant delays would have led to a disruption of the plans .
And of course if it was actually hitting , nothing would be flying .
Again a change There are others , ( one of the guys in my dorm who was majoring in history used to always tell me he thought the Spanish Armada being blown apart was one ) But for a guy that looks at the past weather like me , there are many examples .
In our personal lives we all have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us .
In the end it gives me a sense of humility in that I know we are really not in control .
Be it weather or whatever one has to be able to adjust and react to the circumstance , though it sure helps to know what may be coming before , which of course is what we try to help people with , But I guess in the end in comes down to what Robert Burns said :

I am a political junkie. I have been since I was five years old. There were two things I loved (besides my family) when I was five: The weather and John Kennedy. I was the entertainment at my parents’ parties…getting up on the hassock and imitating JFK saying “Ask not what your country and do for you, but ask what you can do for your country.” Then I had to go to bed because it was “lights out” for me at 7 p.m.
In any case, Rasmussen Oct 21 had the approval rating of President Trump and President Obama tied at the same level on that date before their respective elections. But the October surprise was not yet to come, though this is the anniversary of the first weatherbell.com map of a landfalling hurricane on the NJ coast! Oct. 21 was a Sunday afternoon and the tropical update went out forecasting the tropical wave in the eastern Caribbean to develop, and then follow the path of the Euro, which did a great job on Sandy, up into the east coast. I often refer to this as getting the maps from Hazel — though displaced a bit further east, dropped into my lap. Sandy was the October surprise. After all there was very little dirt you could dig up on Romney (other than perhaps that he soaped someones windows or cut someones hair). So this was a weather “surprise” as far as the political realm goes — but if you were a subscriber it certainly was not, and in fact probably had your juices flowing from over a week out.
How did it change the course of history? The grace that the president handled Sandy and the co-operation with the governor of NJ was the best of reactions to this disaster. We saw some of that at the start of COVID with the rapid building of hospitals in NY, but of course that was not long for this world and was not weather related. But Sandy and the 2012 election were. Romney had to stop campaigning for 3 days (and in doing so showed class), but it was the president who really stood out with the Governor of NJ. But for Sandy coming onto the scene, things may have been different. I can’t really say, but I can say that it was an impressive display in my opinion of how to react when called upon and I do think it tipped the scale a bit. The appearance of Sandy changed the course of history, since a change in the top may have led to a different turn of events from that time on.
Who knows where would be today?
How about JFK? The rain cleared out that morning. What if it had not –as all the forecasts the night before indicated it was going to be rainy cold day in Dallas. If so, there’d likely be no crowds. In addition, the top of the motorcade would have been up. No clear shot at the president by the shooter(s?) either.

And IMO Vietnam was the end of the innocence in the public-government relationship, as the nation grew much more cynical after that.
Then there’s the Battle of the Bulge. If not for the arrival of the cold high front from the east and freezing up of all the mud, one has to wonder if the Germans would have dug in and held on all winter. That slowed the advance in the spring just enough so the German scientists, who were closing in on their own nuclear weapons, would have had the time to get there. Of course its always assumed that this was the case, but at the very least, the freezing up of the roads led to a faster resolution of the problem.
Of course, D-Day speaks for itself. The ultimate forecast by US meteorologists, and one I wonder every day, given what they had, if I could have made as well as they did.
9/11. The large hurricane that was offshore was far enough away so the surface ridge to the west was in perfect shape to provide what, for most people, was a spectacular September day in the morning. But that same great weather (odd isnt it, like the 2 examples above, it is the leaving of bad weather that led to the problems) made the conditions perfect for the hideous results we all witnessed. If the hurricane were closer in, the resultant delays would have led to a disruption of the plans. And of course if it the hurricane was actually hitting our coastline, nothing would be flying. Again a change
There are others. One of the guys in my dorm who was majoring in history back when I was in college used to always tell me he thought the Spanish Armada being blown apart was one. But for a guy that looks at the past weather like me, there are many, many examples. In our personal lives we all have examples of how the weather has impacted us. In the end, it gives me a sense of humility in that I know we are really not in control. Be it weather or whatever, one has to be able to adjust and react to the circumstances — though it sure helps to know what may be coming in beforehand, which of course is what we try to help people with.

Namely involving man ’ s ability to overpower Mother Nature and control the thermostat of planet Earth .
While we are clearly not conspiracy theorists , man-caused global warming or climate change ( take your pick ) has been a mechanism used across the world to grow government , converge to a one-world government and defeat capitalism in favor of world socialism .
The tool of choice is the use of well chosen facts , casting aside facts not considered useful in order to deceive .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lacking ethics , one chooses only the facts that support their beliefs while ignoring those that don ’ t .
In this first of a two-part series , we use material directly from government reports pointing out the information missing in order to make a dishonest presentation of information to the public .
The article below allows us to illustrate how NASA/ NOAA and the UN/IPCC promote deception , using deliberate omissions to create a false understanding for the casual reader .
This article is from the National Aeronautics and Space Agency ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 16 , 2020 is reproduced without any changes other than formatting for convenient reading .

You may want to read the original first .
In blue type following each segment of the NASA article , we provide commentary on the deceptions NASA has created .
Without all the facts , the casual reader will arrive at the author ’ s desired false impression .
An example of how incomplete information creates a false impression is shown in Figure 1 .
Here we consider all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A and B , which could be dependent variables such as how A ( Sun ’ s radiation ) and B ( atmospheric temperature ) vary with each other .
Looking at all the data , the relationship shown as Trend 1 is clearly correct .
However , if we choose to use only a small selection of data , we can arrive at any trend we desire .
This is the technique many government agencies use to achieve false impressions .
The Causes of Climate Change [ 1 ] Scientists attribute the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ century to the human expansion of the “ greenhouse effect ” [ 2 ] — warming that results when the atmosphere traps heat radiating from Earth toward space .

[ 2 ] Not true .
Only a select group of “ Consensus Scientists ” say this .
All scientists dedicated to the scientific method say that the human contribution to the greenhouse effect is trivial or none .

The Earth would be 30 degrees Celsius colder and a frozen and lifeless @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gases in the atmosphere block heat from escaping .
[ 3 ] Long-lived gases that remain semi-permanently in the atmosphere and do not respond physically or chemically to changes in temperature are described as “ forcing ” climate change .

[ 4 ] NASA neglects to tell us water vapor accounts from 70 to 95 % of the greenhouse effect and that its amount in the atmosphere is out of human control .
NASA then again inserts the manipulative word “ feedback , ” implying that it ‘ s human-made .
Gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect include : · Water vapor .
[ 5 ] The most abundant greenhouse gas , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the climate .
Water vapor increases as the Earth ’ s atmosphere warms , but so does the possibility of clouds and precipitation , making these some of the most important feedback mechanisms to the greenhouse effect .
[ 5 ] Again , NASA neglects to tell us more water vapor causes more clouds that increase the amount of sunlight reflected back to space , thus cooling the planet .

· Carbon dioxide ( CO2 ) .
A minor but very important component of the atmosphere , carbon dioxide is released through natural processes such as respiration and volcano eruptions and through human activities such as deforestation , land use changes , and burning fossil fuels .
Humans have increased atmospheric CO2 concentration by more than a third [ 6 ] since the Industrial Revolution began .

( 2 ) scientists can not tell the difference between human-made CO2 from volcanic CO2 , and NASA/IPCC vastly underestimate the volcanic CO2 contribution .
( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ volcanic , tectonic , and vent activities happen in the deepest oceans where scientists have no idea what is going on .
( 4 ) NASA fails to account for CO2 from inactive volcanoes .
[ 7 ] Another true but deceptive statement .
Yes , it is the “ long-lived , ” but don ‘ t tell us that the human-made portion of the increase is only a few percentages of the total increase .

@ @ @ @ @ @ @ both through natural sources and human activities , including the decomposition of wastes in landfills , agriculture , and especially rice cultivation , as well as ruminant digestion and manure management associated with domestic livestock .
On a molecule-for-molecule basis , methane [ 9 ] is a far more active greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide , but also one which is much less abundant in the atmosphere .
[ 8 ] Methane is more potent than CO2 but adds little to the “ greenhouse ” effect because there is so little of it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ does contribute a small amount .
NASA does not tell us that the vast amounts come from the rotting biomatter , volcanic- tectonic-vent activities with much occurring under the oceans like the above CO2 .
[ 9 ] Another true statement packing a powerful deception .
As phrased , the reader is left to think that methane is almost as bad as CO2 .
Second , much of the methane can be easily removed from human sources by flaring it .
· Nitrous oxide .
A powerful greenhouse gas produced by soil cultivation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and organic fertilizers , fossil fuel combustion , nitric acid production , and biomass burning .

Synthetic compounds entirely of industrial origin used in a number of applications , but now largely regulated in production and release to the atmosphere by international agreement for their ability to contribute to destruction of the ozone layer .
They are also greenhouse gases .
[ 10 ] CFCs are here only because it ‘ s human-made , allowing NASA to imply that here ‘ s another example @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nature .
We will conclude Part One of this two part series at this point in NASA ’ s September 16 , 2020 article .
Part Two , which will appear at CFACT.org next week , deals with NASA ’ s use of our solar system in painting a false picture of our Earth when comparing it to our sister planets Mars and Venus .

———————————————-
The Causes of Climate Change [1]
Scientists attribute the global warming trend observed since the mid-20th century to the human expansion of the “greenhouse effect” [2] — warming that results when the atmosphere traps heat radiating from Earth toward space.
[1] The deception is immediately launched by NASA failing to mention other and the most impactful causes of climate change: a)The Milankovitch cycles, which change the distance and orientation of the Earth to the sun, b) The solar magnetic cycles, c) Variations in the Earth‘s tectonic/volcanic heating, d) Variation in galactic cosmic ray flux and a few dozen other factors.
[2] Not true. Only a select group of “Consensus Scientists” say this. All scientists dedicated to the scientific method say that the human contribution to the greenhouse effect is trivial or none. Here, NASA makes a half-true statement, implying that human contribution is paramount and terrible. In reality, the GHE (greenhouse effect) warming is an essential requirement for all life on Earth. The Earth would be 30 degrees Celsius colder and a frozen and lifeless muddy ice ball without it.
Certain gases in the atmosphere block heat from escaping.[3] Long-lived gases that remain semi-permanently in the atmosphere and do not respond physically or chemically to changes in temperature are described as “forcing” climate change. Gases, such as water vapor, [4] which respond physically or chemically to changes in temperature, are seen as “feedbacks.”
[3] A true statement that sets the stage for two misrepresentations, the “blocking” is not permanent, lasts only a short time. Secondly, it stages the next sentence where the phrase “ forcing climate change” implying it is unnatural, thus a terrible thing.
[4] NASA neglects to tell us water vapor accounts from 70 to 95% of the greenhouse effect and that its amount in the atmosphere is out of human control. NASA then again inserts the manipulative word “feedback,” implying that it‘s human-made.
Gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect include:
Water vapor.[5] The most abundant greenhouse gas, but importantly, it acts as a feedback to the climate. Water vapor increases as the Earth’s atmosphere warms, but so does the possibility of clouds and precipitation, making these some of the most important feedback mechanisms to the greenhouse effect.
[5] Again, NASA neglects to tell us more water vapor causes more clouds that increase the amount of sunlight reflected back to space, thus cooling the planet. It also fails to tell us that when water vapor condenses to water and ice crystals that form the clouds, that a significant amount of heat shoots off directly to space resulting in additional cooling of the Earth.
· Carbon dioxide (CO2). A minor but very important component of the atmosphere, carbon dioxide is released through natural processes such as respiration and volcano eruptions and through human activities such as deforestation, land use changes, and burning fossil fuels. Humans have increased atmospheric CO2 concentration by more than a third [6] since the Industrial Revolution began. This is the most important long-lived “forcing” [7] of climate change.
[6] False! Human-made CO2 may have increased by a third, but NASA fails to tell us that the major CO2 increase in the atmosphere is caused by non-human sources: (1) As we came out of the Little Ice Age in 1755, neatly coinciding with the start of the Industrial Revolution, the warming oceans have released bazillion tons of additional CO2 to the atmosphere. (2) scientists cannot tell the difference between human-made CO2 from volcanic CO2, and NASA/IPCC vastly underestimate the volcanic CO2 contribution. (3) About 90% of all volcanic, tectonic, and vent activities happen in the deepest oceans where scientists have no idea what is going on. (4) NASA fails to account for CO2 from inactive volcanoes.
[7] Another true but deceptive statement. Yes, it is the “long-lived,” but don‘t tell us that the human-made portion of the increase is only a few percentages of the total increase. Also, NASA repeats the trigger phrase “forcing” of climate change.
Methane.[8] A hydrocarbon gas produced both through natural sources and human activities, including the decomposition of wastes in landfills, agriculture, and especially rice cultivation, as well as ruminant digestion and manure management associated with domestic livestock. On a molecule-for-molecule basis, methane [9] is a far more active greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, but also one which is much less abundant in the atmosphere.
[8] Methane is more potent than CO2 but adds little to the “greenhouse” effect because there is so little of it. But is brought up because humanity does contribute a small amount. NASA does not tell us that the vast amounts come from the rotting biomatter, volcanic- tectonic-vent activities with much occurring under the oceans like the above CO2.
[9] Another true statement packing a powerful deception. As phrased, the reader is left to think that methane is almost as bad as CO2. Second, much of the methane can be easily removed from human sources by flaring it.
· Nitrous oxide. A powerful greenhouse gas produced by soil cultivation practices, especially the use of commercial and organic fertilizers, fossil fuel combustion, nitric acid production, and biomass burning.
· Chlorofluorocarbons [10] (CFCs). Synthetic compounds entirely of industrial origin used in a number of applications, but now largely regulated in production and release to the atmosphere by international agreement for their ability to contribute to destruction of the ozone layer. They are also greenhouse gases.
[10] CFCs are here only because it‘s human-made, allowing NASA to imply that here‘s another example of bad humans doing bad things to nature.
We will conclude Part One of this two part series at this point in NASA’s September 16, 2020 article. Part Two, which will appear at CFACT.org next week, deals with NASA’s use of our solar system in painting a false picture of our Earth when comparing it to our sister planets Mars and Venus.

Hurricane Zeta will barrel into the Gulf Coast on Wednesday .
The Atlantic Hurricane season runs from June 1st to November 30th .
It peaks around Labor Day .
Late season storms happen .
We ’ ve got one now .
This hurricane will make landfall just days before a major election .
The real question is , will the Left try and exploit this wholly natural weather event for political advantage ?
Joe Bastardi posted a series of examples at CFACT.org where weather may have changed history .
Joe Bastardi is a legendary weather forecaster and frequent CFACT contributor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as few people do .
Joe ’ s the guy who correctly forecast Hurricane Sandy ’ s destructive landfall in the northeast — well ahead of his peers .
Now Bastardi has issued a new warning .
Among Joe ’ s fascinating trips down weather memory lane , he reminds us that Hurricane Sandy may have insulated President Obama from Mitt Romney ’ s momentum just before the 2012 election .
Was this decisive ?
That ’ s something for political pundits and historians to chew over .
Could Zeta tip the electoral @ @ @ @ @ @ @ George W Bush resoundingly won reelection .
He made big plans to use the momentum from his victory to advance his public policy goals .
In August of 2005 , Hurricane Katrina shifted the narrative and stole Bush ’ s momentum away .
Katrina was also entirely natural .
The part where people made the disaster came when aging levies in the New Orleans area failed and flooded the city .
Local Louisiana politicians did a terrible job dealing with the flood , frustrating the federal response .
Bush got the blame , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ incompetence , were remotely his fault .

Hurricane Zeta will barrel into the Gulf Coast on Wednesday.
This is normal.
The Atlantic Hurricane season runs from June 1st to November 30th. It peaks around Labor Day. Late season storms happen. We’ve got one now.
This hurricane will make landfall just days before a major election.
The real question is, will the Left try and exploit this wholly natural weather event for political advantage?

Could Zeta tip the electoral scales next Tuesday?
In 2004, George W Bush resoundingly won reelection. He made big plans to use the momentum from his victory to advance his public policy goals. In August of 2005, Hurricane Katrina shifted the narrative and stole Bush’s momentum away.
Katrina was also entirely natural. The part where people made the disaster came when aging levies in the New Orleans area failed and flooded the city. Local Louisiana politicians did a terrible job dealing with the flood, frustrating the federal response. Bush got the blame, though neither the crumbllng levies nor local incompetence, were remotely his fault.
