The Man-Made Global Warming Hoax, the 'Green Religion' and One-World Government

World leaders have paid little attention to the scandals surrounding global warming. Nothing is going to stop them from pushing forward on climate legislation -- not the damaging emails showing scientists manipulated statistics, not the 'accidental' deletion of raw data, not the leaked documents exposing that 'climate financing' will go straight to the IMF and World Bank, not the mistakes in the IPCC Climate Report, not evidence that solar cycles and sunspot activity may be a primary factor in climate fluctuations, not proof that the world entered a global cooling period in 1998, not snow in 49 of the 50 states -- because fighting global warming and saving the planet are causes that unite the nations in 'earth worship,' the new world religion and the foundation for one-world government.

U.N. Climate Panel Admits Dutch Sea Level Flaw

Reuters
February 13, 2010

The U.N. panel of climate experts overstated how much of the Netherlands is below sea level, according to a preliminary report on Saturday, admitting yet another flaw after a row last month over Himalayan glacier melt.

A background note by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) said a 2007 report wrongly stated that 55 percent of the country was below sea level since the figure included areas above sea level, prone to flooding along rivers.

The United Nations has said errors in the 2007 report of about 3,000 pages do not affect the core conclusions that human activities, led by burning fossil fuels, are warming the globe.
"The sea level statistic was used for background information only, and the updated information remains consistent with the overall conclusions," the IPCC note dated February 12 said.
Skeptics say errors have exposed sloppiness and over-reliance on "grey literature" outside leading scientific journals. The panel's reports are a main guide for governments seeking to work out costly policies to combat global warming.

The 2007 report included the sentence:
"The Netherlands is an example of a country highly susceptible to both sea level rise and river flooding because 55 percent of its territory is below sea level."

"A preliminary analysis suggests that the sentence discussed should end with: 'because 55 percent of the Netherlands is at risk of flooding'," the IPCC note said.
The Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency, the original source of the incorrect data, said on February 5 that just 26 percent of the country is below sea level and 29 percent susceptible to river flooding.

The IPCC said the error was widespread -- it quoted a report from the Dutch Ministry of Transport saying "about 60 percent" of the country is below sea level, and a European Commission study saying "about half."

The panel expressed regret last month after admitting that the 2007 report exaggerated the pace of melt of the Himalayan glaciers, which feed rivers from China to India in dry seasons, in a sentence that said they could all vanish by 2035.

The 2035 figure did not come from a scientific journal.

EDITORIAL: Osama and Obama on Global Warming

Discredited climate theories make strange bedfellows

The Washington Times
February 2, 2010

In his State of the Union address last week, President Obama said there was "overwhelming scientific evidence on climate change." In his most recent message to the world, Osama bin Laden said that climate change "is not an intellectual luxury but an actual fact." It's nice to see these two leaders can agree on something.

The hitch is that the man-caused catastrophic global warming theory is dead, and it needs to be buried. Evidence had been mounting for years that there were problems with the global warming model; most telling was that the globe refused to warm up. Carbon emissions continued apace, but the world began cooling. This is why true believers abandoned the "global warming" brand name and tried to shift the debate to the more ambiguous label "climate change," which is something the rest of us like to refer to as "weather."

The dam broke with Climategate when hacked e-mails from the University of East Anglia's Climatic Research Unit revealed that global warming advocates had for years attempted to hide conflicting data and silence their professional critics. British authorities have determined that the university broke freedom-of-information laws by denying information to scientists seeking to check claims that global warming was caused by human activity.

Evidence is emerging that the data had been rigged all along. Russian analysts noted that British temperature calculations excluded data from 40 percent of Russian territory, much of which showed no increase in temperature in the past 50 years. The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration also cherry-picked data, cutting Canadian data sources from 600 to 35 and relying on only one monitor for all of Canada above the Arctic Circle. This was done even though Canada operates 1,400 weather stations, 100 of which are in the Arctic.

The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is having its own scandal regarding a finding in its Nobel Peace Prize-winning 2007 report that glaciers in India were rapidly disappearing. It is now revealed that this dramatic claim was based not on years of patient observation and research but anecdotes from a hiking magazine and a student's master's thesis. IPCC Chairman Rajendra K. Pachauri knew about the erroneous information before December's Copenhagen climate summit but maintained the falsehood. He even denounced a report from India that showed the glaciers were in far less jeopardy as "unsubstantiated research." Last month, Mr. Pachauri published a sexually explicit novel, further diminishing his professional reputation.

Climate scientists have to come to grips with some highly inconvenient truths. World temperatures continue to decline as carbon emissions increase. Chilly Scotland is facing its coldest winter in a century. Arctic sea ice is not vanishing. Polar bears are experiencing a baby boom. Water vapor appears to play as important a role in the climate as carbon emissions. Sunspot activity may be more important than both combined.

Meanwhile, climate change fanatics seek to blame capitalism and productivity for global warming, global cooling, too much snow, not enough snow, hurricanes, tornadoes and even the Haiti earthquake.

The simplistic and increasingly discredited theory of carbon-based, man-caused global warming needs to be discarded, and the scientists who sought to squelch skeptics and artificially inflate their own reputations must be disciplined. Alas, Mr. Obama and Mr. bin Laden need to update their talking points.

I think some people -- the Mother Earth people, the back-to-the-land crowd, those still stuck in the sixties -- just won't be happy until everyone is living in caves and teepees and dancing around fires naked all night long, celebrating being one with the dirt. - johnqpublic1, EDITORIAL: Osama and Obama on Global Warming, February 2, 2010

Blizzard of Lies: Debunking the Warm-Air-Holds-More-Moisture Defense

NewsBusters
February 12, 2010

Update: Rush cites this article to rip global warmist hypocrisy.

On today's show, Rush Limbaugh cited NewsBusters and read from this article to demonstrate the global warmists' hypocrisy:
"When there is less snow, they say it's because of global warming. When there is more snow, they say it's because of global warming. Now you cannot have it both ways."
Rush played several clips of Dem senators in recent years attributing the lack of snow to global warming. Listen to Rush [Editor's Note: I am note a Rush Limbaugh fan, but he is right about the man-made global warming hoax] cite NewsBusters and blast the warmists here.

By now, we're all familiar with the global warmists' attempt to explain away the record-breaking mid-Atlantic blizzards. Take this, for example, from the New York Times [emphasis added]:

"government and academic studies had consistently predicted an increasing frequency of just these kinds of record-setting storms, because warmer air carries more moisture."

So more snow fell from Philly to DC because the temperatures were warmer than normal during the blizzards? That got me wondering: just what were the temperatures in DC on the snow days, and how do they compare to the norm? And guess what?

DC has been hit by three major snowstorms this winter:
  • 16.4 inches on December 18–19,
  • 18.0 inches on February 5–6, and
  • about 12 inches on February 10.
Let's compare DC's actual temps with normal temps for those days.


Bottom line: the temperature was colder than average on every one of the snow days. On average, the snow days were about eight degrees [or 22 percent] colder than normal.

To spin these facts as proof that the blizzards are evidence of global warming because "warm air holds more moisture" is bunk.

Will the MSM note this little analysis?

49 States Dusted with Snow; Hawaii's the Holdout

The Associated Press
Febuary 12, 2010

Forget red and blue — color America white. There was snow on the ground in 49 states Friday. Hawaii was the holdout... More than two-thirds of the nation's land mass had snow on the ground when the day dawned, and then it snowed ever so slightly in Florida to make it 49 states out of 50 ...

The idea of 50 states with snow is so strange that the federal office that collects weather statistics doesn't keep track of that number and can't say whether it has ever happened. The office can't even say whether 49 out of 50 has ever taken place before.

Snow experts at the Global Snow Lab were combing their records but said it may be days before they find out if there has ever been a 50-for-50 snow day. Their best suspect — Jan. 19, 1977 — had snow in Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia, but then Robinson looked for snow in South Carolina and couldn't find any.

As of early Friday morning, 67.1 percent of the U.S. had snow on the ground, with the average depth a healthy 8 inches. Normally, about 40 or 50 percent of the U.S. has snow cover this time of year, Robinson said... This is after a month that saw the most snow cover for any December in North America in the 43 years that records have been kept. And then came January 2010, which ranked No. 8 among all months for North American snow cover, with more than 7.03 million square miles of white.

The all-time record is February 1978, with 7.31 million square miles. There is a chance this February could break that. There is also a chance that this could go down as the week with the most snow cover on record, Robinson said.

Stay tuned. The weather pattern is in a snow rut ...

How Do We "Come Out of Confusion?"

In a Geological Society of America abstract, Dr. Don Easterbrook, Professor of Geology at Western Washington University, presents data showing that the global warming cycle from 1977 to 1998 is now over and we have entered into a new global cooling period that should last for the next three decades. He also suggests that since the IPCC climate models are now so far off from what is actually happening, that their projections for both this decade and century must be considered highly unreliable. - Implications of PDO, NAO, Glacial Fluctuations, and Sun Spot Cycles for Global Climate in the Coming Decades (PDF)

Why do so many people find it difficult to come to the realization that there truly is a plan for global government? The Bible talks about a world government materializing before the end of this age, yet many remain oblivious to this fact. Why do so many people find it difficult to see through the lies we are fed concerning “climate change?”

I think there are some people who just refuse to believe any of the documentation on these subjects because they can’t handle it. They don’t want their boat to be rocked if you will. Then there are those who don’t even know it’s going on. They are too wrapped up in TV shows and the like. But there has to be another element to this.
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. - II Thesselonians 2:10

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie. - II Thesselonians 2:11

That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. - II Thesselonians 2:12
Do you have pleasure in unrighteousness? Or do you love God and His truth? If you love the Lord and His Word, He will keep you from believing a lie. Ask Him for knowledge; ask Him for wisdom.

In July, the Pope called for world government by stating that we needed a “true world political authority.” In December, the Pope made the following statement:
"It is important to acknowledge that among the causes of the present ecological crisis is the historical responsibility of the industrialized countries."
The Pope should understand that “climate change” is a lie, it’s not something man has caused; rather, it’s the natural cycles of the sun and its effect on our planet. The Pope continued by saying:
"This means that technologically advanced societies must be prepared to encourage more sober lifestyles, while reducing their energy consumption and improving its efficiency."
This is all being done under the guise of “climate change;” let the world unite as one to stop this disaster, we are told.

Meanwhile, the past few years have brought us stories with titles like these: Beijing, coldest in 40 years, Iowa temps 'a solid 30 degrees below normal, Vermont sets 'all-time record for one snowstorm,' and World copes with Arctic weather. This is nothing man caused, but is the natural cycle of things.

While world leaders were meeting in Copenhagen to discuss “climate change,” a blizzard came down on their heads. It seems every time there is some “climate change” meeting there is always snow. I have noticed this in the United States, where the government has discussed this same topic. Divine joke? Pretty coincidental if you ask me.

While man-made “climate change” has been discovered to be officially a scam with the recent release of emails by climate scientists, people are still clinging to the idea, as we see with the Pope, among others (No the Pope is not the antichrist; we will be covering this topic very soon). Obama’s science officials have defended the false notion of man-made “climate change” even after the release of these emails.

If you are old enough to remember, in 1975 the government pushed the idea of a new “ice age!” That didn't happen either, did it?

With all of the information readily available about the falsification of climate change, the world's governments still band together to try and change something they have no effect on, nor can change. Don't you find that intriguing? The real agenda is for a global government or new world order, if you will. With that said, we should take steps to help reduce pollution, which does affect all of us. That doesn't mean we need world government!

So what did United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton do? Donate 100 billion of your tax dollars to the scam known as “global warming.” Did you get a say in it? Of course not, neither did you when it came to the trillions of dollars corporations and banks received in the recent bailouts. Folks, this is all by design.

So with all of this information so readily available, why is it so difficult for some to see the truth? That not only “climate change” is a lie, but it’s part of the big push for a new world order, global government, or whatever you wish to call it. If you can’t see through these lies, man’s lies, how will you ever stand against Satan and his lies? As we are told, the antichrist (Satan) will do great wonders when he arrives on earth.
And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. - Revelation 13:13

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast. - Revelation 13:14
Therefore, how can we come out of confusion? By asking the Lord for wisdom and understanding, as Proverbs 2:6 declares:
"For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.”

Nuclear War and Global Famine

An Assessment of the Extent of Projected Global Famine Resulting from Limited, Regional Nuclear War

By Ira Helfand, MD, Physicians for Social Responsibility
Copyright 2007, Royal Society of Medicine

It has been clear for some time, that a large scale nuclear war involving a substantial portion of the nuclear arsenals of the United States and Russia would have devastating consequences far beyond these two countries and would constitute a truly global catastrophe.

The recent study by Robock et al on the climatic consequences of regional nuclear war shows clearly that even a “limited” nuclear conflict, involving as few as 100 Hiroshima-sized bombs, would also have global implications with significant effects on weather patterns throughout the world.
  • Debris injected into the atmosphere from the explosions and resulting fires would produce an average surface cooling of -1.25ºC that would last for several years.

  • Even 10 years out, there would be a persistent average surface cooling of -0.5ºC.

  • Perhaps more important than the average cooling, there would be decreases in the growing season (frost free days) of 10 to 20 days in many of the most important grain producing areas throughout the world.

  • This decrease might “completely eliminate crops that have insufficient time to reach maturity.”

  • There would also be major alterations in patterns of precipitation, with a 10% reduction in global rainfall, and large reductions in the Asian summer monsoon.
  • A conflict of this magnitude would not necessarily involve the nuclear super powers. It could arise between emerging nuclear powers such as India and Pakistan.
This paper attempts to examine the potential effect on human health of these sudden climate changes. The most important direct effect of these changes in temperature and precipitation would be a decrease in global food production. While there are no accurate estimates of the shortfall in food production available at this time, there is historical experience from previous cooling episodes which suggests the impact on food supplies would be very large.

Climate and Famine: The Historical Record

In 1816, North America and Europe experienced “The year without a summer,” following the 1815 eruption of the Indonesian volcano Tambora, the largest volcanic eruption in recorded history. The average global deviation in temperature was -0.7ºC, and there was significant shortening of the growing season.
In the northeastern United States and eastern Canada, which were particularly hard hit, temperatures were actually above average during the early part of the year, and even during the summer months there were a number of periods with average or above average temperatures.

But four severe cold waves, June 6-11, July 9-11, and August 21 and August 30, brought killing frosts as far south as the Mid Atlantic States; and in New England and Quebec there was even significant snowfall in June. These periods of frost caused extensive damage to crops, particularly to the most important crop, corn (maize), much of which was destroyed.

The resulting shortages led to the extensive slaughter of livestock which could not be fed, and to a doubling in grain prices throughout the area.

In the New World, where population density was still quite low, there was relatively little hunger, except in some isolated rural communities. In the more densely populated countries of western and northern Europe, the effects were far more severe with the widespread crop failures leading to outright famine. As described in a letter published in an Albany, New York, newspaper that year:

“From the Baltic to Breslau the greater part of the land sewn with winter wheat has been obliged to be ploughed up, and of the corn that remains standing scarcely one third part of a crop is to be expected.”
Famine was reported in Ireland, the German states, Switzerland and France, and again a doubling of prices for grain occurred. In Europe, a much greater disaster was averted only because of the very strong harvest in 1815, which left grain stocks high at the outset of the famine, and another strong harvest in the summer 1817. As it was:
“In the spring of 1817 pallid, half starved people were wandering the fields, hunting for, and grubbing up, overlooked and rotting potatoes of the last year’s crop.”
Crop failures and famine were also reported in India.

The worst of the cooling caused by the Tambora eruption lasted for only one year.
A less well documented, but more prolonged episode of cooling took place between 536 and 545. This event may also have been precipitated by a large volcanic eruption in Indonesia, this time in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra.
The historical record from this period is quite fragmentary, but references to extensive crop failure and severe famine are found in documents from Byzantium, China, Korea and Japan, and the archeological record suggests a devastating drought in South America and the western United States.
During both of these prior events, crop failures were due primarily to cooling and lower precipitation.

Availability of Food Stocks in the Event of a Regional Nuclear War

Several other factors might affect the size of available food stocks in the event of a regional nuclear war.

If the soot injected into the atmosphere in a nuclear war caused significant ozone depletion, that could cause a further major decline in actual food production.

Furthermore, food that was grown might be diverted to industrial use. Today, ethanol production is already using significant quantities of grain that would otherwise be available as food or livestock feed.

In the event that a regional nuclear war involved petroleum producing countries, or disrupted shipping from petroleum producing countries, there might be increased diversion of grain to ethanol production to try to make up for this shortfall.

Finally, if a regional war resulted in significant radioactive contamination of one or more major food producing countries, large quantities of food might need to be destroyed and significant areas of crop land might need to be taken out of production.

Current Demographic Conditions

At this point in time, we are ill prepared to deal with a major fall in world food supply. As of mid August of this year, global grain stocks were approximately 322 million tons with annual consumption at 2,098 million tons. Expressed as days of consumption, world grain stocks are, therefore, approximately 56 days, lower than at any point in the last 50 years, and dramatically lower than the 100 to 120 days of consumption available in the 1980’s and 1990’s. These stocks would not provide any significant reserve in the event of a sharp decline in global production.

At our current baseline, there are already millions of people suffering chronic malnutrition. While there is considerable academic debate about the exact scope of global malnutrition, and even about the best way to define malnutrition, the average adult needs somewhere between 1800 and 2000 calories per day, depending on his or her stature, to meet basic metabolic requirements and sustain a minimal level of physical activity. Requirements for children are dependent on age and size.

There are more than 800 million people in the world whose daily caloric intake falls below these minimum requirements. Each year some five million children in this group starve to death. A small further decline in available food would put this entire group at risk.

Given these conditions, even a modest, sudden decline in agricultural production could trigger massive famine.

At the time of the great Bengal famine of 1943, during which three million people died, food production was only 5% less than it had been on average over the preceding five years, and it was actually 13% higher than it had been in 1941 when there was not a famine.

But in 1943, after the Japanese occupation of Burma, which had historically exported grain to Bengal, the decline in food production was coupled with panic hoarding, and the price of rice rose nearly five fold, making food unaffordable to large numbers of people.

These two factors, hoarding and the severe increase in rice prices, caused an effective inaccessibility of food far more severe than the actual shortfall in production.

In the event of a major global cooling episode with widespread crop failures, a similar scenario would unfold on a global scale. Whatever the initial shortfall in agricultural production -- and it might be much higher than the modest 5% drop that triggered the Bengal famine -- there would be widespread panic, particularly if there were a general understanding that crops would continue to fail for a number of years.

In 1972, the price of both wheat and rice doubled simply in response to a tightening of world food stocks to just under 60 days of consumption. In this setting, we would expect to see much greater rises in grain prices worldwide. These price increases would put a crippling burden on whole countries which import large portions of their food supply and would make food unaffordable for hundreds of millions of individuals who are already malnourished, precisely because of their inability to afford adequate food even at current world prices.

In addition, we would probably see hoarding on a global scale. In September 2002, Canada, faced with a sharp decline in wheat production because of drought conditions, suspended wheat exports for a year. The next year the European Union took similar action, as did Russia. And in August 2004 Vietnam indicated it would not export rice until the following spring.

In the event of a regional nuclear war, the grain exporting states would be faced with major crop losses and the prospect of bad harvests for the next several years. It is probable that they would take similar action and refuse to export whatever grain surplus they might have, retaining it instead as a domestic reserve.

This year global grain consumption is about 2,098 million tons, of which 220 million tons, or 11% is imported. Many countries which currently do not have major problems with widespread malnutrition are nonetheless dependent on imported food. For example, North Africa, home to more than 150 million people, with average caloric consumption well above the minimal level, imports 45% of its food. A number of other countries in the Middle East, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan and Taiwan are also dependent on imports for 50% or more of their grain consumption. The wealthier of these countries might initially be able to obtain some grain on the international market by bidding up the price, but as the extent of the global crop failures became clear, grain producing countries would tighten their export bans, and the hundreds of millions of people dependent on grain imports would also face starvation.

Famine Deaths and Synergistic Effects

Somewhat paradoxically, the ongoing effects of global warming might make the world more vulnerable in the event of a sudden cooling event. For example, in Africa, “increasingly variable growing season conditions are disrupting subsistence agricultural production leading to famine.” Populations already weakened by the negative effects on food production of global warming would be less able to withstand a sudden further decline in accessible food.

It is of course impossible to estimate with accuracy the full extent of the global famine that would follow a regional nuclear war. But it seems reasonable to conclude that few of the 800 million people who are already malnourished would survive if their already substandard intake decreased by even 10% for a whole year. If the crop failures and resulting food shortages persisted for several years, their fate would be sealed. Additional hundreds of millions whose current intake is marginal, or who live in countries dependent on food imports, would also be at risk, particularly if the famine persisted.

Thus, in the event of a protracted global cooling, triggered by a limited, regional nuclear war, it seems reasonable to fear that the total global death toll could exceed one billion from starvation alone. Two other issues need to be considered as well.

  1. First, there is a very high likelihood that famine on this scale would lead to major epidemics of infectious diseases.

    The prolonged cooling and resultant famine in 536-545 was accompanied by a major outbreak of plague, which developed over the next half century into a global pandemic. The famine of 1816 triggered an epidemic of typhus in Ireland that spread to much of Europe; and the famine conditions in India the same year led to a an outbreak of cholera that has been implicated in the first global cholera pandemic. The well studied Great Bengal Famine of 1943 was associated with major local epidemics of cholera, malaria, smallpox, and dysentery.

    Despite the advances in medical technology of the last half century, a global famine on the scale anticipated would provide the ideal breeding ground for epidemics involving any or all of these illness. In particular, the vast megacities of the developing world, crowded, and often lacking adequate sanitation in the best of times, would almost certainly see major outbreaks of infectious diseases; and illnesses, like plague, which have not been prevalent in recent years, might again become major health threats.

  2. Finally we need to consider the immense potential for war and civil conflict that would be created by famine on this scale.

    Within nations where famine is widespread, there would almost certainly be food riots; and competition for limited food resources might well exacerbate ethnic and regional animosities. Among nations, armed conflict seems highly likely as states dependent on imports adopt whatever means are at their disposal in an attempt to maintain access to food supplies.

It is impossible to estimate the additional global death toll from disease and further warfare that this “limited regional” nuclear war might cause but, given the worldwide scope of the climate effects, the dead from these causes might well number in the hundreds of millions.

Engineered Ice Age: It's Global Cooling, Stupid

Are We Entering an Engineered Ice Age?

It's a Cooling World, Which Will Have a Devastating Effect on Food Production and Supply

By Zen Gardner (www.zengardner.com)
December 20, 2010

From a leaked Climategate email:
"The western world's leading climatologists have confirmed reports of a detrimental global climatic change [cooling]. The stability of most nations is based upon a dependable source of food, but this stability will not be possible under the new climatic era. A forecast by the University of Wisconsin projects that the Earth's climate is returning to that of the neo·boreal era (1600-1850) -- an era of drought, famine, and political unrest in the western world." (1974) (Source)
Pretty alarming. And of course suppressed, while we're told the world is warming and to "turn the heat down" in every way possible, including "reducing our carbon footprint." Excuse me for living.
So what are they up to?

Current Situation - Beginning of "A Little Ice Age"?

Record lows are being reached in many parts of the world. Almost daily there are new reports of virtually closed cities in Europe and Russia, with severe winter storms now pushing down into North America and even the Caribbean.
“Unbelievable amounts of snow” in Berlin (AW note: 800 flights grounded in EU)
Germany, too, is being hard hit. Thomas Globig from Germany's weather service Meteo Media says:
It might even get worse: “It is quite possible that we are at the beginning of a Little Ice Age,” the meteorologist said. Even the Arctic ice could spread further to the south."
In Berlin, there was an absolute cold record in early December, “For 100 years it had not been as cold as in the first decade of December,” said Globig.
The last two weeks have been the coldest in England since the second-to-last solar minimum, many hundreds of years ago.
Wow.

The Cause for this Severe Cooling?

Globig sees two main causes for the significant cooling: First, the cyclical changes in the big air currents over the Atlantic, and second, the variations in solar activity.
“Everyone has heard about the high over the Azores and the low over Iceland,” said Globig.
The most important question for weather forecasts for many years was: “What are the air pressure differences between the two regions, how stormy will it be -- and how much mild air is being shoveled sequentially from the Atlantic to Europe?”
“Both pressure areas do not exist right now,” explains Globig. On the contrary, over the Azores there is lower air pressure and a high over Iceland. “The weather over the Atlantic is upside down,” said Globig. Now cold air from the polar region has lots of space to flow to Europe -- and that is what is happening. (Source)
Interesting, something's "flipped" the weather over the Atlantic. Hmmm.

Could anything or anyone be exacerbating this air current reversal?

Enter the Mad Science of the Global Elite

While it may seem the elephant in the living room is an embarrassed global-warming-turned-climate-change crowd, we may be missing some major factors staring us in the face. And deliberately so. Do you expect to be told the whole truth?

In fact, the idiots are saying the cooling is happening BECAUSE of the warming! And people believe it! They've been so shamed for being alive and having a carbon footprint they feel guilty and thereby not in a position to contest this insanity.

Geoengineering - Deliberate and "Accidental"

Up and coming on the world stage is a deliberately increased awareness and attempted acceptance of "geoengineering" -- "scientific" methods for improving our environment. Again, most of these are based on the false Global Warming scare first conjured at the Club of Rome in the '70's that claimed:
"We are facing an imminent catastrophic ecological collapse" and "our only hope is to transform humanity into a global interdependent sustainable society, based on respect and reverence for the Earth." (Source)
Chemtrails

Interestingly enough I found this government graph about our "wicked" carbon emissions, nicely projected on a sky full of another of their nefarious experiments, persistent contrails or "chemtrails," first appearing in the '90's and now prevalent all over the US, Europe and many other parts of the world. And they're blaming us?

http://wattsupwiththat.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/carbon_emissions_trends.jpg

Below is a not-so-atypical sky if you've been looking up. Normal contrails? They're covering the sky for some reason, and won't even acknowledge they're doing it. And most don't even notice! Orwellian.



Don't believe this is a government program?

Below is one of their own drawings of what they "propose" to do....as if they'd ever wait for the population or even our inept legislators to weigh in on it.

Multiple Purposes - Cooling Just a Bonus?

Not only do these toxic, reflective chemtrails keep the earth from heating, they also keep water from naturally evaporating from the earth, thus wrecking the water cycle as well. Crop production is down with lesser sun exposure, and the toxins from these aerosols are killing plants and soil and weakening the human immune system through metallic salts and lesser levels of Vitamin D. (Other even more deadly toxins have been found. Research chemtrails for more info.)

The Navy iron "fertilization" project under way in the Pacific northwest is just as troubling and will wreak havoc on the marine eco-system. This is not as well known and should be publicized more. See HERE.

Normal Jet Stream

Recently the jet stream pattern takes on an extreme kink---go HERE. Controlling the Jet Stream
The HAARP program in Alaska uses high frequency waves that bounce off the ionosphere and can manipulate the jet stream, amongst other things. Yes, that can affect the weather, and the program has at least two patents for weather modification. Think this isn't in play? Think they keep their fingers off the trigger of a weapon this powerful?
Though denied by HAARP officials, some respected researchers allege that secret electromagnetic warfare capabilities of HAARP are designed to forward the US military's stated goal of achieving full-spectrum dominance by the year 2020. Others go so far as to claim that HAARP can and has been used for weather modification, to cause earthquakes and tsunamis, to disrupt global communications systems, and more. (Source)
And remarkably there are several such arrays around the world. Here's just a few.

Chemtrails and ELFs

It is believed the chemtrail program is also useful to this weather control since it is heavily 'seasoning' the atmosphere with mainly metallic salts that resonate with the electro-magnetic impulses. Mind you, inhaling these for years also makes us vulnerable to HAARP-type technology, and apparently we now show up on radar thanks to the barium, but that's another story.

Either way, the manipulation of the jet stream is very much a part of existing programs, so is it any wonder we're getting weird weather patterns around the world?

Have the Ocean Currents Been Compromised As Well?

http://euro-med.dk/billeder/billedergreat-conveyor-belt3.jpg 

This is what "coveys" the temperature-regulating ocean currents around the world, besides the sea life that depend on it. If these are seriously compromised, it would have a profound impact on the world's weather.

Gulf Oil Disaster Impact

As the Deepwater Horizon oil disaster grew, fears abounded. Not only could the Gulf of Mexico be turned into a toxic soup, but the water evaporation rates would drop due to the high oil content in such a large body of water.

Another concern was that the gulf loop current could stall. It apparently did.
Yowusa.com - BP Oil Spill Stalls Gulf Loop Current
Oceanographic satellite data now shows that the Loop Current in the Gulf of Mexico has stalled as a consequence of the BP oil spill disaster. This according to Dr. Gianluigi Zangari, an Italian theoretical physicist, and major complex and chaotic systems analyst at the Frascati National Laboratories in Italy.
He further notes that the effects of this stall have also begun to spread to the Gulf Stream. This is because the Loop Current is a crucial element of the Gulf Stream itself and why it is commonly referred to as the “main engine” of the Stream.
The concern now, is whether or not natural processes can re-establish the stalled Loop Current. If not, we could begin to see global crop failures as early as 2011.

Was This Deliberate?

The cover-up and downplaying of the BP disaster has been abhorrent, and extremely suspicious. We know big money and corporate and banking interests are involved for sure, but then forced use of the highly toxic dispersant Corexit takes it to even another dark level.

The circumstances around the original explosion, the indications of foreknowledge with Halliburton buying the clean up company days before the disaster, and then being the same company that came in to take over the cementing of the well cap just before it blew, and the ongoing cover up, all smack of 9/11.

We can't tell people's motives if they won't tell us the truth. But we can sure look at the outcome.

Little Ice Age the Objective? Or 'Bonus'?

I believe weather warfare, (as supposedly prohibited specifically by UN resolution 31/72 way back in 1977) means just that. Warfare. And this is waging war on the human population as the controllers do in every sphere of our lives.

Did they know it could possibly bring on an ice age? Sure. Do they care if it happens? They're out to disrupt and control, so it's all a bonus to them.

We're up against evil here folks.

Conclusion

Besides this continued ecological and sociological assault being waged by the insane powers that be, something fundamental seems to be changing--and for the worse.

If this continued depletion of sunshine and clean air, destruction of our natural ocean systems, engineered drought and reduced food production continues, we're headed for a man-made catastrophe.

And it sure fits their plan. These insane controlling elites are longing to reduce the world's population, create a continued breakdown in the economic and socio-political fabric, and usher in their new world fascist dictatorship.

And they'll do anything to bring this to pass.

Fear not, this will past. The darkness cannot stand the light.

But keep your eyes open--nothing is at it seems, and certainly not according to what they tell us.

Keep wondering, Zen

Global Warming is DOA

We need low-cost energy to survive the future cold. It will be wise for us to begin voting for people who will be realistic about nature and our climate.

By Climate Physics, LLC
March 29, 2009

Through March 15, 2009, 14 major weather stations in Alberta recorded their lowest March temperatures since the 1880s.

Canadian weather stations broke records on March 10:
  • Edmonton International Airport reported an overnight low of -41.5 C, smashing the previous March low of -29.4 C set in 1975 by 12 C (22 F).

  • Lloydminster hit -35.2 C breaking its old March record of -29.2 C.

  • Fort McMurray broke its 1950 record with a reading of -39.9C.

  • Cold Lake, Slave Lake, Whitecourt, Peace River, High Level, Jasper and Banff, and other communities recorded record cold temperatures.
Something is happening and it is not global warming. Global temperatures have been falling for at least the past five years according to NASA's weather satellites.

In 2008, Anchorage had the fewest 70 degree days since 1917. Alaska glaciers grew for the first time in 250 years. Arctic sea ice has grown this winter to an extent not seen since 1980.

The Pacific Decadal Oscillation (of the northern Pacific ocean current) has entered its long-term low temperature phase. The present sunspot minimum mirrors the solar cycle that preceded the 100-year Dalton Minimum cold period of the 1800s.

The Leibniz Institute of Marine Science, the Max Planck Institute of Meteorology in Germany, the University of Wisconsin and several other scientists have forecast global cooling for at least 10 to 20 years.

Don't worry about the polar bears or melting glaciers. Worry about yourself. Your heating and electric bills are going to skyrocket if we don't get moving fast on using our coal energy to produce electricity with no restrictions on carbon dioxide emissions.

Our problem is not global warming. Our problem is the political agenda of the environmental groups that is trying to restrict and tax our use of energy on the basis of their pseudo-scientific delusion that carbon dioxide is heating our planet.

We must become politically active now to stop the global warming political agenda or we will pay dearly for our loss of energy freedom (and heat) in the next 20 years.

The Montana phrase, "Cold enough fer ya?" is going to take on a whole new meaning.

New Solar Cycle Discovery Predicts Global Cooling

NASA consultant and former space shuttle engineer John L. Casey of the Florida based Verity Management Services Inc. (VMS), has shown that the sun is the dominate influence on our climate.

In the process of doing research into a book on natural disasters, Casey found two important cycles of the sun. One is between 90 and 100 years long and another 207 years long.

He says these primary cycles are found in the weather patterns in the US and possibly around the globe. There is a near 100% match between low temperatures and lows in solar activity lows going back to 900 AD. A correlation this strong is rare.

The data is reliable enough to call an end to the current 207-year warm or ‘Bi-Centennial' cycle. The new solar sunspot cycle will produce a new period of declining temperatures.

If Casey's discovery is correct, we will be well on our way into a global cool down during the next 10 years. He predicts the next solar sunspot cycle peak in 2012 will show strong signs that the next major cooler period has started.

He also says signs of a Bi-Centennial cycle changeover are already occurring although modestly. His observations are based on lower sunspot counts and year to year comparisons between 2006 and 2007."

Global Cooling Is Now Imminent, Is Unstoppable and Will Be Severe!

The Earth is now entering a phase with unstoppable and dramatic global cooling, which will initiate a new Little Ice Age within the next decade. The cause of this cooling is the predicted, and now real, reduction in solar activity that we now can see. These conditions will persist during the next solar cycles. This will have a devastating effect on agriculture, lowering food production and increasing the risk of widespread famine. This will also increase the demand for fuel.

By Per Strandberg, M.S., Physics
March 18, 2008

Global cooling is now imminent, is unstoppable, will be severe, and the media have put a complete blackout on the waning Sun -- the cause of this cooling! The Earth's climate will continue to cool during the next 20 years and enter a new Little Ice Age!

Unfortunately, preparing for global cooling and its consequences is something that the world is not doing; instead, because of the current delusional state of climatology science which has been distorted by an eco-fundamentalistic and political agenda, the world is now preparing for global warming and is fighting the perceived menace from increasing levels of greenhouse gases.

I find it scary that nobody is discussing the coming cooling except for a few people active in forums dedicated to solar changes and solar physics. It's a total news blackout, yet it is the most important earth change that is about to happen in the near future.

Actually, it has already started in small scale. The signs of a cooling world are all over, but nobody seems to be able to connect the dots and link this to the current changes on the Sun.

A lot is happening with the climate right now. All important temperature measurements on the Earth average temperature show a temperature change of 0.5-0.7 temperature degree centigrade between January 2007 and January 2008. The biggest change came last month.

You saw this vital climate news in the news media, didn't you?

Of course you didn't!

The reason for this not being news is because the temperature change went the wrong way.

This temperature change, if it stays, means that almost all warming from the last 100 years has been wiped out.

The result of this global cooling, which we are entering now, and the policies, which the politicians are trying to implementing in order to fight global warming, will have devastating consequences. The net combined result of this will be the maximal creation possible of world-wide poverty, widespread famine and human misery.

This would be good thing for the environment as a large chunk of people in poor overpopulated countries will die from starvation, which will result in reduced pressure on natural resources as it will lower humanity's environmental footprint.

This is a good thing if you have a cynical mind. To put it bluntly.

Right now the prices of wheat and corn have reached record levels. This is happening even before the effects from global cooling have started to affect world-wide food production on a large scale. Most of the cause for the current price increase is bio-fuel production. This is a fuel production method which when investigated by experts is shown not to reduce the total amount of CO2 released into the atmosphere, instead it is likely to increase it.

The knowledge that we now are entering a period of severe cooling has been known by solar physicists, and the cause of this has been known for a long time, but this has been censured by the climatologist elite. This is even true today.

The news media don't report that the current solar cycle is of record length, that the Sun's activity is extremely low, and that this is now initiating the return of The Little Ice Age, even when the signs of cold weather are all over the world.

This global cooling of the Earth in the immediate future will have big impact on human society and affect most people. The effects will be devastating, yet nearly nobody knows about it.

I have created this manifest describing the action which should be taken.

Global Cooling Emergency Manifest!

The Earth is now entering a phase with unstoppable and dramatic global cooling, which will initiate a new Little Ice Age within the next decade. The cause of this cooling is the predicted, and now real, reduction in solar activity that we now can see. These conditions will persist during the next solar cycles. This will have a devastating effect on agriculture, lowering food production and increasing the risk of widespread famine. This will also increase the demand for fuel.

The world is misinformed and ill-prepared for this now imminent and real climate change. This lack of information has been made worse because of the perceived temperature increase which has been expected due to current global warming alarm.
  • We demand that the IPCC meet in an emergency meeting to set up plans for the mitigation and adaptation from the effect of Climate Cooling.

  • We demand that all nations stop bio-fuel production using food crop.

  • We demand that the actions in the Kyoto protocol to be abolished.

  • We demand that emergency food supplies are built up in order to help ease future famine as a result of reduction in worldwide food production from global cooling.

  • We demand that plans are set up to meet the increasing energy demand of heating and transportation in a cooler world.

  • We encourage news media to report on the Sun's waning activity.

  • We encourage news media to inform the public that the current reduction in solar activity is leading to an unstoppable and prolonged world wide cooling event.
Henrik Svensmark, a Danish Physicist, suggests a strong link between solar activity, cloud cover and Earth's climate. Global Warming and the Climate is a website dedicated to comparing what causes global warming and climate change, humans or the Sun. It also warns about coming global cooling. The website is managed by Per Strandberg, who has a M. Sc. Degree in Physics.

How Do We "Come Out of Confusion?"

By Brandon T. Ward
January 4, 2010

Why do so many people find it difficult to come to the realization that there truly is a plan for global government? The Bible talks about a world government materializing before the end of this age, yet many remain oblivious to this fact. Why do so many people find it difficult to see through the lies we are fed concerning “climate change?”

I think there are some people who just refuse to believe any of the documentation on these subjects because they can’t handle it. They don’t want their boat to be rocked if you will. Then there are those who don’t even know it’s going on. They are too wrapped up in TV shows and the like. But there has to be another element to this.
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. - II Thesselonians 2:10

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie. - II Thesselonians 2:11

That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. - II Thesselonians 2:12
Do you have pleasure in unrighteousness? Or do you love God and His truth? If you love the Lord and His Word, He will keep you from believing a lie. Ask Him for knowledge; ask Him for wisdom.

In July, the Pope called for world government by stating that we needed a “true world political authority.” In December, the Pope made the following statement:
"It is important to acknowledge that among the causes of the present ecological crisis is the historical responsibility of the industrialized countries."
The Pope should understand that “climate change” is a lie, it’s not something man has caused; rather, it’s the natural cycles of the sun and its effect on our planet. The Pope continued by saying:
"This means that technologically advanced societies must be prepared to encourage more sober lifestyles, while reducing their energy consumption and improving its efficiency."
This is all being done under the guise of “climate change;” let the world unite as one to stop this disaster, we are told.

Meanwhile, the past few years have brought us stories with titles like these: Beijing, coldest in 40 years, Iowa temps 'a solid 30 degrees below normal, Vermont sets 'all-time record for one snowstorm,' and World copes with Arctic weather. This is nothing man caused, but is the natural cycle of things.

While world leaders were meeting in Copenhagen to discuss “climate change,” a blizzard came down on their heads. It seems every time there is some “climate change” meeting there is always snow. I have noticed this in the United States, where the government has discussed this same topic. Divine joke? Pretty coincidental if you ask me.

While man-made “climate change” has been discovered to be officially a scam with the recent release of emails by climate scientists, people are still clinging to the idea, as we see with the Pope, among others (No the Pope is not the antichrist; we will be covering this topic very soon). Obama’s science officials have defended the false notion of man-made “climate change” even after the release of these emails.

If you are old enough to remember, in 1975 the government pushed the idea of a new “ice age!” That didn't happen either, did it?

With all of the information readily available about the falsification of climate change, the world's governments still band together to try and change something they have no effect on, nor can change. Don't you find that intriguing? The real agenda is for a global government or new world order, if you will. With that said, we should take steps to help reduce pollution, which does affect all of us. That doesn't mean we need world government!

So what did United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton do? Donate 100 billion of your tax dollars to the scam known as “global warming.” Did you get a say in it? Of course not, neither did you when it came to the trillions of dollars corporations and banks received in the recent bailouts. Folks, this is all by design.

So with all of this information so readily available, why is it so difficult for some to see the truth? That not only “climate change” is a lie, but it’s part of the big push for a new world order, global government, or whatever you wish to call it. If you can’t see through these lies, man’s lies, how will you ever stand against Satan and his lies? As we are told, the antichrist (Satan) will do great wonders when he arrives on earth.
And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. - Revelation 13:13

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast. - Revelation 13:14
Therefore, how can we come out of confusion? By asking the Lord for wisdom and understanding, as Proverbs 2:6 declares:
"For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.”

World Temperatures according to the Hadley Center for Climate Prediction. Note the steep drop since 2007. Source: hadCRUT

"In a Geological Society of America abstract, Dr. Don Easterbrook, Professor of Geology at Western Washington University, presents data showing that the global warming cycle from 1977 to 1998 is now over and we have entered into a new global cooling period that should last for the next three decades. He also suggests that since the IPCC climate models are now so far off from what is actually happening, that their projections for both this decade and century must be considered highly unreliable."

"The Pacific Ocean has a warm temperature mode and a cool temperature mode and in the past century has switched back and forth between these two modes every 25-30 years (known as the Pacific Decadal Oscillation or PDO). In 1977 the Pacific abruptly shifted from its cool mode (where it had been since about 1945) into its warm mode, and this initiated global warming from 1977 to 1998.


"The correlation between the PDO and global climate is well established. The announcement by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory that the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) had shifted to its cool phase is right on schedule as predicted by past climate and PDO changes (Easterbrook, 2001, 2006, 2007).

"The PDO typically lasts 25-30 years and assures North America of cool, wetter climates during its cool phases and warmer, drier climates during its warm phases. The establishment of the cool PDO, together with similar cooling of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), virtually assures several decades of global cooling and the end of the past 30-year warm phase.

"It also means that the IPCC predictions of catastrophic global warming this century were highly inaccurate." - Implications of PDO, NAO, Glacial Fluctuations, and Sun Spot Cycles for Global Climate in the Coming Decades (PDF)

Is It Time to Prepare for Hardships?

Hard Times Ahead

By Paul Proctor, NewsWithViews
May 13, 2009

It’s time to prepare for hard times, my friends. And, if you’re a bible believing, Christ-following Christian, I believe the coming years will be particularly troublesome. I say “bible-believing, Christ-following Christian” because our degenerating culture has all but stripped the biblical definition of the word “Christian” from today’s collective conscience so that it has lost much of its scriptural meaning, even among many of today’s attending-church members.

The enemies of Christ have clearly risen to great power in this country and are, as I write, busy endeavoring to finish off what remains of the Church for the purpose of replacing it with a god and religion more suitable for global government. Though they may well in time take possession of the many debt-heavy mega churches and other grand houses of worship around the country in order to turn them into federally-subsidized community centers for faith-based social services, they won’t be successful at completely silencing or eliminating the true body of Christ, which will likely be forced to abandon them in order to keep hearing and proclaiming God’s Word uncensored.

Unless the Lord Himself intervenes to alter the current course of events, those now in power will most certainly rule over us for a season – and an arduous one at that.

Considering the unbiblical and unconstitutional legislation at hand, it’s looking more and more like faithful Christians could soon be viewed as enemies of the state for no other reason than having believed, proclaimed and obeyed the Word of God. Not only is the Church being attacked from without, it is also being undermined from within by charlatans who would transform it into something more spiritually pliable, socially useful, and dialectically accommodating.

I believe Christians will again and again be called upon to choose whom we will serve in the coming days in ways that will bring more persecution and suffering than we are accustomed to, requiring a spiritual farsightedness and desire for the eternal things of God over the temporal rewards of this world.

We need to be ready. We need to be willing. And we need to be empowered, not by the mere passion of patriotic zeal, but by the Holy Spirit of God and His Word. It is not we against them – it is an angry and rebellious world against God, and we would do well to remember that when the devil comes knocking at our door demanding more tolerance, diversity and unity.

Vengeance is not ours – that belongs to the Lord, as He clearly states in His Word. Those who live by the sword will surely die by it – again, not my words – His.

When our Constitution and Bill of Rights are completely discarded for the New World Order, there will be no going back to the way things were. There will only be the Word of God to edify, encourage, inspire and sustain us through the hard times ahead. Those who understand and appreciate the power of that Word know very well what I’m talking about. Those who don’t will ignore it at their own peril, because to them it is foolishness.

Best we get into His Word now more earnestly and take it to heart in preparation for a time when bibles are no longer allowed or even legal, than get caught spiritually ignorant and scripturally unarmed when temptation and tribulation come.

“For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” – Hebrews 4:12

Preparing to Live in Perilous Times in America

By Don Koenig, The Prophetic Years

I have indicated that this is the generation that will likely see Bible prophecy fulfilled. I been asked what we should be doing as Christians to prepare for the time of trouble ahead. There is both spiritual preparation and physical preparation that we need to do and sometimes they will overlap, but I will try to separate them out the best I can.

Spiritual Preparation for These Last Days

Get serious about your relationship with Jesus Christ. In other words, make Him the number one priority in your life. Obviously, if Jesus is the number one priority, you will communicate with Him daily and read the words Jesus gave to you in the Bible for your instruction and edification.

Especially pay attention to the New Testament, which is the instructions for the New Covenant Assembly born of the Spirit. Also spend a good deal of time in the Psalms and Proverbs because they give valuable keys for good living and fellowship with the Lord.

Walk by the Spirit and not by sight. God will make it clear to you what He wants you to do, but you must step out in faith and actually start doing it. If you do so, He will guide your paths.

Pray for wisdom to understand your calling in these last days, and then do it with all the strength and the spiritual gifts that God will give you to complete His good work in you. Be open to correction from sincere Christians because we all get off track now and then. Let no one judge your motives if they truly came from a sincere desire to please the Lord and out of love for others.

Be separate from the world. Do not be enslaved to the many enticements and distractions that are in the world. That probably means changing some habits that are impacting your relationship with God even though these things might seem quite normal to those in the world. You may need to get rid of material things and worldly influences that are hindering you. Find spiritual substitutes; for example, fill your mind with Christian teachings, music, meditation on the Word, and with thinking on what God would have you to do with your talents.

Times of trouble, persecution and testing will come to all Christians; some will be very subtle and some will be very obvious. You will not like them when they come, but each will help build your faith and your character if you remain steadfast by trusting in God.

Attend a Bible believing church regularly. As things grow worse in this world, this might mean that you will meet much more often than you do now, possibly in your own homes. In some places in the world where there is much persecution Christians meet almost daily.

Fellowship with other Christians. The Body of Christ has many different functions with different gifts and purposes. The parts were designed to work together for the common good. If you do not have many Christian friends, you probably need to find a home fellowship or you need to attend small group functions in your local church.

Physical Preparation

Don't expect that the Rapture will occur before any time of trouble in the West or in America. There could be great calamities in the nations before that event, as there were many times on earth in history. Many Christians are going through tribulation right now, and there is no reason to think that Christians in the West will escape tribulations while their nations are rejecting God and living in evil. Those who even try to change their nation may be hated and persecuted just for telling them the truth.

Take wise advice that your government gives you for your physical well being. If you think that shows lack of faith in God, you are wrong. Governments are used by God as His servants on the earth.

The U.S. government, as well as some other governments, are telling you to have at least three months of reserve food on hand. So be wise and start acquiring it. Have twice that amount for every member of your family. You do not need MRIs or bulk dried food - packaged and canned non perishable foods found on the shelves on your local supermarket will last for years, are cheaper, taste better, and you can continually use the older stock and replace it. I recommend a year's supply of food. If a deadly flu pandemic or an EMP attack were to strike in early fall, you might need to get through to the harvest of the next growing season.

In these days of just-in-time inventory, any major disruption will cause food shortages. You don't want to put yourself and your family in the situation where you will have to depend on the military for your survival. Even your ancestors knew enough to store up for the lean times. Joseph did in Egypt. Early American farmers canned several years of food in case of a lean year. Today's modern American Christians think they are unique in this world and will never see troubles like Christians in the rest of the world. They are uniquely wrong.

Don't forget you also need a source of water and a way to purify it. Five drops of laundry bleach per gallon will do the job in a few hours. There are many other ways to purify water as well.

Home school your children or send them to a private Christian school. You might think that you cannot afford to do that, but you really cannot afford to expose your children to the blatant anti-Christian amoral brainwashing that goes on in public schools. Better to go without some things than to find out your child has become brainwashed, perverted and corrupted. I assure you, most who go through the public school system today will not come out of it with Christian beliefs.

You might think you will need to save money or gold for the end days. I don't think that is necessary. You should get out of debt and stay out of debt, and try to have enough savings to keep you going for six months. If a complete collapse of the system happens, whatever money you have might become worthless and commodities like gold will become illegal and be confiscated.

The best physical preparation anyone can make for these last days or any days is to have an indispensable skill that others need. If you have a usable indispensable skill, your family will never lack what you need to survive. Of course, not everyone can acquire such skills, but if you have the opportunity to learn one, do so. I do not consider many service and clerical office jobs to be indispensable skills in a time of economic trouble.

You might consider a small cache of items that you can barter with should money become worthless. Basically that could be anything that people need to live on. Again, don't get carried away with this. If you have too much stuff on hand you are a target for someone to come and take it away.

If a deadly flu pandemic hits - like the bird flu - you are going to have to stay out of public places. Air borne flu will not spread above 86 degrees F or when relative humidity is above 80 percent. Keep that in mind. You may have to keep yourself and your family in one of those two environments until the deadly pandemic runs its course. Be aware that flu spreads rapidly in cold dry climates. If you fly in an airplane during a pandemic, you have put yourself in an ideal environment to catch it. If you pile into a cold car with other people, you most certainly will catch it if one of the others in the car is carrying it. If deadly flu or germ warfare happens, you are really going to have to think things through before you do them. Do what the government tells you in health related matters.

The government will have safety equipment for emergency personnel, but they will not have the safety equipment for general population. They may have a vaccine or anti virals that you might have to go somewhere to get. You are going to have to use your own judgment on the information that the government gives you. Certainly have a multi-band radio that runs on batteries.

If possible do not choose to live in big cites. If there is any civil breakdown, things will get rather nasty in the cities, at least until troops come in. Even then you will be under martial law and will not be allowed to travel freely. If you are in a city, you need to network with people in your own neighborhood that are trustworthy Christians.

If you are totally dependent on electric, you need to get a generator and have fuel on hand. If you live in a cold climate, you might not have heat for an entire winter. For example: gas lines could be empty, electric could be off, and propane deliveries might never come. Try to have one wood source of heat and a stock of wood even if you never intend to use it. If you have no way to do that, you might consider buying a kerosene heater and keeping some fuel on hand. It is not the safest source of heat, so you will have to keep some windows cracked to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, but the 22,000 BTU's most kerosene heaters produce will keep a large room warm in any house.

If you cannot do these things, know where you can go in a time of crisis. Perhaps that will be a friend, relative or a church that is prepared. Don't count on any significant help from casual acquaintances or neighbors; they will have their own hands full. There will be government public shelters as a last resort, but if there is air borne disease they may be deadly.

In any situation God gives wisdom to His children that ask.

Don't just believe or follow those with their own radical agendas. There will be anti government groups. If you follow them they will only get you killed or jailed.

The prime objective is for you and your family to survive the crises. The objective is not to fight the inevitable globalization or new world order that you think is coming. As good as the U.S. Constitution is, in time of world crises, the government is not going to abide by it. So quoting the Constitution to those in authority or taking up arms against the government is not going to accomplish your prime objective.

Global government is inevitable or the Bible is wrong. If it is inevitable, there will not be anything that you can do about it when the god of this age is allowed to implement it. Make the God of creation your refuge and you will not be disappointed. He knows how to take care of His own.
