Europe’s Days of Carbon Colonialism are Numbered

 The European Union is intent on implementing the world’s first tax on the carbon content of imported goods from January 1st 2026. The EU’s celebrated climate policy experiment, the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), will make its debut as the crowning jewel of its Green New Deal to make Europe “climate neutral by 2050”.

Brussels imagines itself as the arbiter of the world’s energy future, wielding carbon tariffs to discipline trading partners into compliance. Yet as 2026 approaches, it is increasingly clear that this grandiose project is destined to collapse under the weight of its own contradictions, geopolitical realities and economic irrelevance....<<<Read More>>>..

The hypocrisy of Davos: Elite Parasites push for CARBON TAXES on the masses while on private jets

 The globalist World Economic Forum (WEF) convenes in the picturesque Swiss town of Davos every year, and the hypocrisy of its attendees is more glaring than ever. While the WEF touts net-zero emissions and carbon taxes, the very individuals who champion these policies arrive in private jets and helicopters while advocating for constraints on the masses.

Sheila Gunn Reid of Rebel News expounded on this hypocrisy in a piece published on Jan. 24. She noted that the small town of St. Moritz, about an hour and a half south of Davos, serves as a staging ground for the WEF's carbon-conscious attendees. St. Moritz's local airport serves as the parking for the private planes of the world's most influential leaders, who then board luxury helicopters toward their final stop.

This isn't just a matter of convenience; it's a stark illustration of the double standards that define the globalist elite. It's a world away from the carbon-conscious rhetoric that dominates the WEF's agenda.

The irony is not lost on those who are critical of the WEF. While the forum pushes for carbon taxes and net-zero emissions, its attendees are among the largest contributors to carbon emissions. Private jets and helicopters are some of the most carbon-intensive forms of transportation, yet these are the very modes of travel chosen by those who preach carbon reduction.

"There's absolutely nothing that happens at the WEF that couldn't happen over a Zoom call," Reid remarked in her piece. Yet the allure of the Swiss Alps and the prestige of in-person meetings seem to outweigh the environmental impact. In contrast, U.S. President Donald Trump made a virtual appearance at this year's WEF meeting – leading the journalist to remark that the real estate mogul "seems to have a smaller carbon footprint than the world's elite who lecture us about ours."...<<<Read More>>>...

Cost of Driving Jumps 50% in Three Years as Net Zero War on Motorist Heats Up

 The cost of running a car has soared by £700 to £2,100 a year in the last three years – a 50% rise – as a result of the Net Zero war on motorists and rising inflation. The Telegraph has more.

There has never been a worse time to own a car, as motorists are “assaulted from all sides” by spiralling costs, analysis shows.

The yearly cost of running a car has soared by £700 to £2,100 in the last three years – a 50% rise – as the Net Zero war on motorists and rising inflation takes its toll.

Households are spending over £500 more a year on insurance than in 2021 and have been hit by substantial hikes in the price of repairs, parking and fuel.

At the same time, low-emission zones have expanded across the country, saddling motorists with additional charges to drive in urban areas.

Edmund King, President of motoring body the AA, said the burden on drivers has never been so high.

He said: “There have been times in the past when certain elements have been more expensive, like fuel. But this is the first time when the cost of motoring as a whole has been so high. It’s an incredibly expensive time to be a driver. They are being assaulted from all sides.”

King added that motorists are getting a “rubbish return on investment” after drivers reported one million potholes on the nation’s roads last year, a post-pandemic high.

“Drivers are paying more but in return they get terrible infrastructure, with roads in a record poor state. It’s a bitter pill to swallow.

“For many millions of people, their car is not a luxury – it’s essential. Many people can’t cut back on driving, and so they cut back on other household expenditure. They buy less food, go out less. It affects their lifestyle quite considerably.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Is A Carbon Tax What We Really Want?

[Collective Evolution]: The Carbon Tax (and its sinister partner the Cap-and-Trade market) is the only "solution" that our leaders are proposing for Climate Change.

Is it not time to question specific 'solutions' to global problems that seem to always benefit the elite, and consider what might be proposed if the health and prosperity of humanity was really the sole concern?

If you are a person who actively supports the implementation of a worldwide carbon tax, it is likely that you have humanity’s best interests at heart. If you have participated in climate marches in order to help speed up the implementation of the carbon tax within your country, you are walking your talk.


In supporting a carbon tax, your recommendation is that the citizens of each country should be willing to contribute some more of their own wealth to their government in order to enact their regional or national carbon tax scheme.

Another way of saying this is that you are advocating for citizens of the world to be willing to experience an overall decline in their current standard of living in order to implement the global carbon reduction targets of the Paris Accords. This is simple economic math...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

“Decarbonize” means DEPOPULATION, because humans are carbon-based organisms… AOC, Bernie Sanders are actually promoting extermination of humans

Apparent total madness. A distraction from what is really going on. 

[Natural News]: Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and failed presidential candidate Bernie Sanders have together unveiled a new piece of legislation that they claim will help to “decarbonize” America’s public housing stock – which is just code for depopulation.

The “Green New Deal for Public Housing Act,” as they’re calling it, would require $180 billion in taxpayer dollars to “decarbonize the entire public housing stock in the United States of America,” according to AOC and Sanders.

“And in the process of decarbonizing the public housing stock we are going to put hundreds of thousands of people to work in good paying jobs and giving that preference to public housing residents,” AOC further explained during a public unveiling event for the bill.

“The planet is in crisis,” Sanders added, to cheers from a group of public housing residents that was bussed in from New York City to Washington, DC. “The truth is that five out of the last six years have been the warmest on record,” Sanders further contended, offering no evidence to back this claim...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

The Real Cost of the Australian Carbon Tax

On July 1, 2012, the Australian Government will introduce a Globalist-backed carbon tax. The carbon tax will begin at a fixed price of $23 per tonne of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere.

Cloaked by the lies and deception of the science that has persuaded the Australian Government that climate change is real, the Globalists have now began to change the fundamental structure of the booming Australian economy. The real cost of a carbon tax on the Australian economy and how it will affect Australian families directly was hidden by the Globalists and the Australian Government when they were selling the carbon tax to the Australian public. Now that Australia is about to introduce a Globalist carbon tax, Australian businesses have begun to change the way they do business in Australia and this is now impacting ordinary Australians.

Firstly, the immediate impact of a carbon tax will be felt by charitable organizations. The Salvation Army, one of Australia’s largest charitable organizations, has revealed that a carbon tax will cost them an additional $3.5 million dollars and that this could impact on the services they provide to about 300,000 people a year of which includes emergency accommodation and drug and alcohol counseling.

Secondly, to make matters even worse for charitable organisations and ordinary Australians, electricity companies are refusing to tell struggling families and businesses exactly how much the carbon tax will add to their power bills...read more>>>...

The truth will out on Labor's carbon scam

THE whitewash begins. Now that the carbon tax has passed through federal parliament, the government's clean-up brigade is getting into the swing by trying to erase any dissent against the jobs-destroying legislation. On cue comes the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, which this week issued warnings to businesses that they will face whopping fines of up to $1.1m if they blame the carbon tax for price rises. It says it has been "directed by the Australian government to undertake a compliance and enforcement role in relation to claims made about the impact of a carbon price." Businesses are not even allowed to throw special carbon tax sales promotions before the tax arrives on July 1. "Beat the Carbon Tax - Buy Now" or "Buy now before the carbon tax bites" are sales pitches that are verboten. Or at least, as the ACCC puts it, "you should be very cautious about making these types of claims". There will be 23 carbon cops roaming the streets doing snap audits of businesses that "choose to link your price increases to a carbon price". Instead, the ACCC suggests you tell customers you've raised prices because "the overall cost of running (your) business has increased"....Read More>>>>....
