UN Dictator’s Club now wants $1 trillion per yr to fight imaginary CAGW. Advocates communism is best to fight it

What the Foxtrot!

Fortunately, the Abbott Gov’t will tell the UN to go play the Foxtrot Off Game by allowing them to go first.

The United Nations climate chief has urged global financial institutions to triple their investments in clean energy to reach the $1 trillion a year mark that would help avert a climate catastrophe.

In an interview with the Guardian, the UN's Christiana Figueres urged institutions to begin building the foundations of a clean energy economy by scaling up their investments.

In addition to scamming for more dough to fund more useless renewables like wind and solar power, the UN’s true agenda is finally revealed…

United Nations climate chief Christiana Figueres said that democracy is a poor political system for fighting global warming. Communist China, she says, is the best model.

China may be the world’s top emitter of carbon dioxide and struggling with major pollution problems of their own, but the country is “doing it right” when it comes to fighting global warming says Figueres.

Figueres added that the deep partisan divide in the U.S. Congress is “very detrimental” to passing any sort of legislation to fight global warming. The Chinese Communist Party, on the other hand, can push key policies and reforms all on its own. The country’s national legislature largely enforces the decisions made by the party’s Central Committee and other executive offices.

Communism was responsible for the deaths of about 94 million people in China, the Soviet Union, North Korea, Afghanistan and Eastern Europe in the 20th Century. China alone was responsible for 65 million of those deaths under communist rule.

The second article confirms what I have always thought the true green agenda is all about. Climate Change, Global Warming or Climate Disruption (or whatever it’s called) has been subverted by the progressive elite and the watermelons of the green movement. There aims are simple: to extend the powers of government; to vastly raise taxes; to destroy the capitalist system; to end personal freedom and property ownership; to redistribute income both domestically and internationally; to bring ever-closer the advent of an eco-fascist New World Order.

Green is the New Red.

Top 10 worst UN Decisions for 2013

The greatest foreign act we could do is as a country would be to completely withdraw from this global dictators club.

Via UN Watch

1. The UN Human Rights Council elected Hezbollah supporter Jean Ziegler, founder and recipient of the Muammar Qaddafi Human Rights Prize, as a top advisor.

2. The UN General Assembly adopted 21 condemnatory resolutions against Israel, compared to 4 on the rest of the world combined.

3. The same UN General Assembly elected China, Cuba, Russia, and Saudi Arabia to the UN Human Rights Council. The dictatorships will take their new seats on January 1, 2014.

4. UN Human Rights Council official Richard Falk blamed the Boston Marathon terror bombings on “the American global domination project” and “Tel Aviv.” Shortly thereafter he was praised by the council.

5. The UN Special Committee on Decolonization, charged with upholding fundamental human rights and opposing the subjugation of peoples, elected the murderous Syrian regime to a senior post.

6. The UN Conference on Disarmament in May 2013 made Iran its president.

7. The UN Economic and Social Council, which oversees the UN women’s rights commission, elected genocidal Sudan as its vice-president.

8. The UN Human Rights Council elected slave-holding Mauritania to be its vice-president.

9. The UN chose Zimbabwe, a regime that systematically violates human rights, to host its world tourism summit.

10. UNESCO, which condemned no other country but Israel, and which was silent as Hamas bulldozed a world heritage site to make a terrorist training camp,allowed Syria to sit as a judge on UNESCO’s human rights committee.

Let’s get AUS out of the United Nations and get the UN out of this country.

Three reasons why the UN's Human Rights Commission is complete joke

Where do you think the Australian Human Rights Commission gets most of its ideas from?

 

The 3 Maps Via UN Watch

Thankfully Labor lost the last Federal Election so Australia today is still in a satisfactory situation when it comes to freedom of the press.

Sad. Map of the 39 countries that to this day either jail or kill gays

Really sad. Many countries like Saudi Arabia and Algeria are present members of the UNHRC.

Nearly half of the 2014 UNHRC membership (47%) fail to meet the minimal standards of a free democracy.

2013 Map of the most corrupt countries.

The UN is a complete joke. Australia should withdraw from this world wide dictators club.

The hypocrisy, selectivity, and politicisation of the UN is staggering

Via the Times of Israel

…The (UN) General Assembly will have adopted a total of 22 resolutions condemning Israel—and only four on the rest of the world combined.

…193 UN member states, condemned Israel for violating the human rights of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza, of Palestinian refugees, and even of Syrians in the Golan Heights.

That’s right: the UN adopted a resolution today that mentions the word “Syria” no less than 10 times—yet said nothing of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s massacre of more than 100,000 of his own people.

Entitled “Occupied Syrian Golan,” the resolution condemned Israel for allegedly mistreating Syrian citizens in the Golan Heights. Israel was also condemned for violating the rights of Syrian citizens under international humanitarian law. The UN found no time today, however, to comment on the international legality of President Assad gassing his own citizens to death.

What a Joke: Saudi Arabia, Cuba & China will join UN ‘Human Rights’ Council

 

UN run AGW 'middleman’ awash with cash but claims to face hard times

CAGW is nothing but a massive money merry-go around scam.

Via Fox News

The United Nations-administered cap-and-trade system for reducing greenhouse gases is sitting on a cash hoard of close to $200 million, even as it warns of hard times ahead that could impede its mission.

The cash cushion for the Geneva-based organization known as the Clean Development Mechanism, or CDM, amounts to more than 400 percent of the $45 million reserve that it considers a normal set-aside for rainy days, according to its recently published business plan for 2014-2015.

Given the organization’s projected belt-tightening budget of about $33 million for next year, it also means the CDM’s more than 170 employees could, theoretically, do absolutely nothing for the next six years before they would have to go out of business.

The CDM’s intention, of course, is to do the opposite:  it is preparing to suffer through a lean year or two and counting on 194 nations that assembled in Warsaw, Poland, this week, to successfully kick off negotiations intended to lead to a new global climate control treaty for signing in 2015 -- and, the organization hopes, a new and even bigger gusher of cash.

The CER’s (carbon emission reduction certificates) aren’t worth the paper they are written on.

(CDM) essentially acts as a middleman in the process of creating projects in developing countries, paid for by participants in developed countries, that are calculated by its vetted experts -- predominately a host of European and Asians consulting and technical contractors -- to provide certified reductions in carbon emissions.

As part of the same middleman role, the CDM sits at the center of a much bigger array of consultancies and other service providers that create and sustain its project inventory.

…Less well known is the fact that the CDM takes a fee for every CER that it issues -- worth $0.10 for each of the first 15,000 tons, and $0.20 for every ton thereafter, “to assist with the administrative expenses of the executive board and other bodies involved in the Protocol framework.” 

To judge from the size of the CDM surplus, the “share of proceeds” has clearly done a lot more than that. But even in 2013 -- when the number of projects registered by the CDM has dropped to about 80 percent from the previous year, fees and “share of proceeds” is expected to bring in $35 million, or just less than the CDM’s $38 million budget. The difference will hardly make a dimple in the organization’s current cash trove.

What a bunch of thieves…

All Quiet on the UNHRC Front

One of the most under reported stories of recent months must surely be the troubling developments at the United Nations Human Rights Council (the UNHRC – not to be confused with the UN High Commissioner of Refugees) writes Elle Hardy

Formed in 2006 from the ashes of the hamstrung and ineffective Commission on Human Rights, the body’s watery but noble aim is to “help member states meet their human rights obligations through dialogue, capacity building, and technical assistance.”

The UNHRC is the lead body within the UN for human rights. Its reports and recommendations can ultimately only be enforced by the UN Security Council. It serves three functions: to review and give recommendations on the self-reporting of human rights in all participating countries every country every four years, to promote and discuss human rights, and to report gross violations.
