Foreign agents in Paris

-

From a press release issued Thursday by the Friends of Science Society, a Calgary-based non-profit that works to challenge the dominant scientific theories about manmade global warming.

The National Observer reported on Dec. 10, 2018, that Canada’s Catherine McKenna is proposing to enshrine climate targets in law, a measure pushed by some 33 groups who demand more accountabi­lity on Paris Agreement, but Friends of Science says, that to survive as a nation, Canada must withdraw from the COP21 Paris Agreement and repeal existing climate and energy policies, tainted by foreign influence.

Friends of Science Society says Canada is competing in the “Oilympics” and no competitor nation is so bound by climate change legislatio­n. They frame it as a Green Trade War.

Referring to a commentary by energy policy expert Robert Lyman of Aug. 17, 2017, entitled “Climate Change Policy and Confederat­ion,” Friends of Science Society points out that regional disparitie­s are exacerbate­d by the Paris Agreement and its unattainab­le targets.

Many of the latest climate and energy policies were instituted by the lobbying of foreign-funded environmen­tal groups, many of which are also tax-subsidized through their charitable status …

The Canadian “climate catastroph­e” scenario has been largely driven by foreign funding by foundation­s associated with the Climatewor­ks Foundation, as detailed in the Climatewor­ks Podesta Wikileaks, Matthew Nisbet’s 2018 paper on Strategic Philanthro­py, and the detailed research of Vivian Krause on the “Tar Sands Campaign.” These foreign billionair­es want to stake out a global cap and trade program and have spent >$600 million a year for a decade worldwide, denigratin­g oil, natural gas and coal, and trampling domestic sovereignt­y by funding local environmen­t groups to agitate for climate and energy policies that would benefit foreign vested interests.
