Climate Change and European Cultural Imperialism: A 1970s Franco-German initiative aimed at righting energy trade imbalances morphed over the next decade into a global oil-and-coal phaseout campaign falsely advertised as an effort to protect Earth’s atmosphere from carbon dioxide overload. Seeking to level the playing field between their resource-poor homelands and the Anglosphere’s fossil fuel superpowers, the Paris-Berlin Axis uses “Climate Change” to domestically impose, and globally export, renewable energy and electro-mobility. Success hinges upon capturing the Anglosphere’s cultural assets.
Unfortunately, the social movement in the Anglosphere resisting the climate agenda often imagines the climate crusade as being rooted in, and/or funded by, the Russian Federation or People’s Republic of China. They are barking up the wrong tree. Apart from lacking a motive, and apart from the lack of evidence for this allegation, Russia and China simply do not possess the capacity to implement such a comprehensive politico-cultural campaign. These two countries combined do not exert one percent of the sway on Anglo-America that EU states, and their attendant commercial enterprises, do.
A related error is the envisioning of Climate Change as a “Leftist” campaign. Climate Change was initiated by, and continues to be orchestrated by, sections of the European oligarchy (along with their similarly socially elevated allies from similarly resource-challenged metropolitan environs of Anglo-America). These folk are neither radical levellers nor sincere internationalists. They are elitist plutocrats and Europe- firsters. The political ideology of this cohort is best described as “centrist” albeit with tendencies toward, and historical roots in, Eurofascism. https://blog.friendsofscience.....org/2022/06/03/clima
