Harper's Conservatives look at geoengineering tostop global warming
by TRAVIS LUPICK on JUN 26, 2013 at 4:25 PM
STORY
An Environment Canada presentation warns that extreme weather events—such as the floods that
struck parts of Calgary on June 21, 2013—will become more common as the effects of climate change
grow more severe.
ANDREA ORELLANA ABREU ON I NSTAGRAM
NEWLY DECLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS suggest Stephen Harper’s Conservative
government is taking climate change more seriously than many critics have alleged. However,
environmental advocates say its approach remains troubling.
On June 5, 2012, then–Environment Canada deputy minister Paul
Boothe convened a meeting to discuss geoengineering, according to
documents posted online by Mike de Souza, a Postmedia national
political reporter.
Geoengineering, which has been advocated by Straight columnist
Gwynne Dyer in the past, was defined as "the intentional, large-
scale intervention in Earth’s environmental systems". The list of
invitees included the deputy minister of defence, the director of the
Canadian Security Intelligence Service, and the national security adviser to the prime minister.
Slides for the meetingacknowledge that the Earth’s climate is
warming as a result of human activity, and warn that even a rapid
implementation of emissions-reduction measures may not prevent
a temperature rise of more than 2°C above pre-industrial levels by

WTF?JUN 26, 2013 at 7:21 PM
How retarded are these people?
Do they think that Super Powers like China, Russia and the US
would let these bunch of Morons running their Neo-Con Gong
Show Geo engineer the Earth with whatever stupid scheme they
come up with?
Fucking Mirrors are they se rious?
Apart from the fact they can't afford any large s cale project like
geoe ngineering due to the Record Deficits and the on-going cut
backs.
Of course if these idiots actually put in a Norway type Royalty
regime whereby some 70% of the profits of Oil & Gas is kept by
the Government instead o f greedy price fixing Oil Corporations...
...than the se idiots could actually pay for whate ver the hell they
wanted to do even though no other major Power would allow
them to do anything so stupid.
I guess they don't teach these things in Mail Room 101.
mid century. A graph projects a global mean temperature increase
of 6° C by 2100, a change that scientists warn would likely be
catastrophic.
Two classifications of geoengineering are presented as options to
reduce future warming: carbon-dioxide removal (CDR) and solar-
radiation management (SRM). CDR methods include afforestation,
ocean fertilization, and the direct extraction of carbon dioxide
from the atmosphere, the slides explain. One example of an SRM
approach is to install "space-based orbiting mirrors" that would
"reduce solar input". Another is to continually inject sulphur
aerosols into the atmosphere "to mimic the effect of volcanoes".
On the phone from Edmonton, Mike Hudema, a climate and
energy campaigner for Greenpeace Canada, told the Straight that
it’s encouraging to see the Harper government acknowledge climate
change as human-driven, but argued that the Conservatives have
reached the wrong conclusion.
"If you admit that the climate crisis is happening and you agree with
the scientific consensus that humans and greenhouse-gas emissions
are the cause of it, then it is the government’s responsibility to
reduce those emissions," he said.
Hudema called attention to Harper’s support for the development
of the Alberta tar sands, which he noted is the fastest-growingsource of greenhouse gas emissions in the country.
Kevin Washbrook , director of the Vancouver-based Voters
Taking Action on Climate Change, similarly told the Straight that
the government should be focusing on ways to reign in sources of
pollution, such as the tar sands. "The core thing we need to do is
reduce emissions, and there is nothing about that in there," he said.

Reducing the cause o f global warming w ill require intelligence,
progress ive thinking, common sense , a desire to do the right
thing. Yep, we 're screwed .
Michele BaillieJUN 26, 2013 at 8:31 PM
Global warming? Lot's of controversy about that issue and the
validity of that theory. I'm sitting on the fence on this one. Of
course, this "interest" could be an entrée to attempting to
validate the heavy metal poisoning we are subjected to called
chemtrailing.

Harper geoengineered the Senate didn't he? Global warming
should be a snap.
VanIsl BobJUN 27, 2013 at 9:22 AM
Dyer doesn't actually endorse geo-eng ineering. He thinks it will
become inevitable due to the inability of governments to a ct
effectively. He also warns it will likely trigger a major war. With a
wa rning like that (echoed by many others) it's hard to see how
Dyer supports geo-engineering.
Uncommon SenseJUN 27, 2013 at 1:59 PM
How on e arth have we gotten to the point of even talking about
Geo-engineering without even discussing the simple solution of
going sustainable? If we have money for that, then we should
have money to give everyone a solar power and get off our oil
addiction. This is a very short term solution that w ill fail because itdoesn't address the cause, I thought we learned this kind of
problem solving skills in elementa ry? Harper, are you smarter than
a 5th grader?

Geoengineering is like fitting a condo m on a penis after
ejaculation -- it wo n't work.
Good words won't either, not even from Obama the cow ard.
Says the UK's The Guardian newspaper headline about Obama's
latest e fforts: "Obama's fracked-up climate strate gy will
guarante e global warming disaste r." adding in a subhea d: "Fatally
flawed e nergy policies and inadequate emissions pledges cannot
prevent dangerous climate change."
Worse yet, Harper is a dumb ass compared to Obama.

They might be heading in the right direction w ith mirrors, but use
Photo Voltaic pannels instead, and beam the energy back to
earth. Japan is already deve loping this technology and should
have something up and running in the next decade.

Messing with nature can only have one outcome: we loose.
Nature can take care of itself, human kind cannot. As long as we
are a profit driven society, we a re doomed. Why is it that some
cultures revered nature and others exploited it? Maybe we could
start to learn from those who knew that messing with nature
brings nothing but disa ster. And proof of that is in the pudding ..
just look at the flooding in Southe rn Alberta, most likely a result o f
Geo-enginee ring (Montana is dryer than a dog fart, so are the
Dakotas, and they needed rain ... well, I guess something wentwrong and the manufactured rain ended up in Alberta).

Geoengineering sounds good to me. The simplest solution would
appear to be using nuclear ene rgy to extract H2 and CO2 from the
oceans (CO2 is 140 times more concentrated in the ocean than in
the atmosphere) and use them to create liquid fuel. (Carbon
Recycling International Inc in Iceland turns CO2 and H2 from
geothe rmal springs into methanol on a commercial basis.) TheCO2 produced by burning the methanol etc would recycle back
into the oceans over a 5 to 10 yea r period.

Geo-engineering has been on-going since the first patents were
introduced in 1997. Look up in the sky. When you see large white
jet contrails that do not d ispers e, but w iden and fo rm cloud-like
coverage - you're observing patented geo-engineering. It's also
referred to as cloud-seeding, but it depends on the patent.
Weather modification companies refer to it as cloud-seeding.
Perhaps GMO companies such as Monsanto (who do covert geo-
enginee ring spraying - yes, they're a llowed to ....) would refer to
their spray programs as 'crop-seeding'. Their purpose is to pollute
natural soil systems w ith aluminum particulates to e nable them to
grow their patented s eeds (versus natural seeds). Their patent
from 1996 was for a se ed genetically modified that would grow in

aluminum laden (toxic, altered) soil. Further patents allow for
weather modifiers to operate large-scale geo-engineering
programs for weather outcomes (weather derivatives) for
wea ther hedge funds. Yes, even we ather is now a hedge fund on
the mercantile exchange. Learn about geo-engineering and why
it's bad for you. Then contact your local MPs to voice your
complaint. You have a right to be ticked off. Go to You Tube, and
wa tch 'Why in the World Are They Spraying'. Then start looking up.
Prepare to be surprised.

Already being done. By the time half the stuff get's to "us" it's
already been happening for a long time.
Judy CrossJUN 30, 2013 at 3:06 PM
Harper is a Globalist and w eather control and manipulation hasbeen a military project for a ve ry long time.( Search for Owning
the We athe r by 2025.) Basically all the NATO countries are
allowing the spreading of aerosols now . Canada it seems, is still
perceived as an honest broker, and Con. Harper's capitulation on
AGW is quite a PR coup! Interesting it happens a s it is being
widely acknowledged that the world is cooling.

Chemtrails? I thought that wa s a crazy conspiracy theory. I gues s
the Georgia Straight was wrong on that all along. Blame it on CO2
that w ill work for the Green Zombies.
sumwomanJUN 30, 2013 at 4:30 PM
i'm sorry... did my computer malfunction and conveniently
suppress the paragraph about CHEMTRAILS.
Yeste rday, there we re plenty of man-made chemical trails floating
in the skies above Vancouver.
For those o f you who have not yet figured out that WE ARE BEING
SPRAYED with chemtrails...you should be a shamed of yourselves.
Resea rch Chemtrails Canada or Chemtrails Vancouver or better
yet Chemtrails 'inse rt you preferred location' on youtube and ge t
the scoop about on-going man-made climate change.

Hi there:
What is causing our many catastrophyies with weather? HAARP is
likely the wo rst with it changing Jet Streams on a da ily basis.

Another item that drastically changes things is the Chemtrail
cover. The World is now in a Co coon of multi ingredient Nano
Dust...49 different dus ts! Whe re is the hea t going to go? The
centre of our Ea rth is likely around 7000 to 8000 degree s F.,
poss ibly higher. This he at w ill seep through the Earths C rust filling
up the gap betw een Earth and the Chemtrails. Think for a
moment, without cloud, we ge t cold. With cloud, we stay many
degree s w armer. We are told Chemtrails are for reflection. I w ill
say Chemtrails a re more for guiding Missiles and he lping HAARP do
it's dirty work. Our World is still governed by tho se that w ant more
War...control the weather and you control the various World
Armies. There is so much to this, remember, we are fed so manyLies that I do not blame people for getting it wrong. If anyone
wishe s to contact me...barry_davis@telus.net The Elite want most
of us dead! This makes it far eas ier for them to Control us. Control
with 7.5 billion people is just about imposs ible. As David
Rockefeller has s tated, 2 billion is far eas ier to control. Bill Gates
wants the World down to 500 million...all on video! Why w ould
these peop le not just consult the Public on reducing the
Populations ....they then lose Control. Control is the name of the
game people. They do not care a rats as s about you and
I...control is the ir goal! The US Reserve Currency also plays a big
part in the Waring, but that is a w hole different s tory.

How about just getting out of the clear-cutting business, and
leaving our natural, CO2-absorbing forests alone?
Wake Up!
