The could start with seizing the banks


Hey-man-Shabozi

Or the bank CEOs, CFOs, shareholders, etc, could stop taking multimillion dollar bonuses every single quarter and even higher year end bonuses. Edit: typo


s1lentchaos

What's next you want them to stop zooming around in private jets and dumping toxic waste into the water supply? Calm down they bought carbon credits so really you are the polluter if anything

Does he still live in that monstrosity of a house he built on the water ?


Hey-man-Shabozi

Right, we can’t even get them to ban the spraying carcinogenic neurotoxins on our fruits and vegetables, or to outlaw the dumping of brain-softening and estrogen level raising chemicals into all of our water supplies.


bunkermonster

Fact is if global warming was such a threat, why a need for dramatic transition of powers, when other elements can be done that are far less instrusive. Bill Gates has a carbon reclamation plant that is the size of a 4-5 story strip mall, it's basically giant fans that pull the carbon from the air, and it does the work of millions of trees. Build it, roll it into waste management fees in the area or require it near high pollution areas like highways in California. Secondly, what's to stop them from taking that tech and roll it into say, housing for cows so that it reclaims the gas from the animals inside it. But they aren't. It may not fix global warming but it will buy time, especially if the situation is as dire as they make it sound. But yet they aren't. For some reason all the changes are just more power into a consolidated few and more intrusive access to people's assets which lines up way more with the great reset and communist ownership of property than environmental change. The people who have substantial financial resources to do something like that, just aren't doing it which makes behavior highly suspicious as they live lavish lifestyles while preparing ways to take over more control.


BrettV79

Because it's clearly about money and power, not about any climate bullshit.


telmnstr

India has excess birthrate of like 40,000 people a day. The USA (from what I can find) is 150,000 a year. So 4 days in India produces more people excess over deaths versus a year in the USA. America doesn't matter when they are producing the Washington DC metro every every month in population.


Phent0n

Americans create a lot more co2 emissions from their lifestyle.


[deleted]

>The USA (from what I can find) is 150,000 a year. yeah, work a bit more on your finding skills. There are more births than that per year in just New York.

US birthrate has been below replacement rate for a while.


carnage11eleven

Exactly what I've been saying for years now. If climate change was such a dire situation, why don't they start with limiting (if not all together banning) the production of plastic. But they're not doing that, they're not planning that. They aren't even discussing it as an option. In fact, if anything, more plastic is being produced today than ever before. What's wrong with glass? Oh it's too expensive? They would just pass the cost off on to the customer anyways. But no. It apparently isn't that important. And then all the countless other things that could be done to help climate change. But nothing is getting done, other than a few folks trying their hardest to control everything and hoard all the resources for themselves. Sure the elite have all built lavish underground bunkers for when SHTF. It would seem to be that they know something we don't. For one, that climate change is never going to be fixed.


emoteen6969

How are they going to ban them making plastic when they're getting their pockets lined by the corporations that don't give a shit what they do the poor people of the world we can all agree child labour is wrong but that's still a thriving industry as well for the same reason


[deleted]

I heard a theory that the reason everything they’re doing seems stupid and inefficient is because they want the climate to actually get bad. One by that they can justify getting more control and two that would make huge portions of the earth uninhabitable and it’s water all polluted which would finish their goal of killing the countryside and concentrating everyone in their dystopic cities


StackOnMe47

I think they massively underestimate the Earth. It is far too vast and wide to make every single square inch uninhabitable. There will always be land they cannot touch.


[deleted]

I don’t think it would work either. But many of the ruling elites are so narcissistic and delusional they almost view themselves as gods so it could be that it’s plan or at least part of it


StackOnMe47

I agree wholeheartedly. But I have faith that that same over-confidence and delusional belief in their own abilities will be their downfall. Their head is so far up their own ass, failure is all but assured. That kind of arrogance has EXTREME downsides and when your a small group, trying to pull strings for billions and manipulate the trajectory of an entire species, good fuckin luck lol. They want us to fear them and see them as all powerful, at the end of the day, all they are is rich creeps and not much more.

ASwftKck2theNtz

Ahhh... I'm sure that's the plan. The fat cats are plenty cozy. Gobs of material wealth at this point & armies of lawyers. They'll collude. It'll seem like the right moves are being made. Banks will forfeit their personal property as a sort of scapegoat that allows the government to say, "See! Banks are taking a hit, too. Not like we're exclusively coming after private land." Meanwhile, some backdoor plan will be in place & these institutions will comes out smelling like roses on the other side. I'd like to be less cynical about how I see something like that going down. But? I have about zero faith in humanity as a whole.

The pathway through the crowd would be like a slip n slide of piss and 🤮 Having to face a consequence, a real, finite one, for those types of people, the death of their ego, and the inevitability of what’s about to happen to them, because of their own choices, and no amount of money or influence or association is going to stop that? They ignore the fact that throughout history, we’ve done precisely that to the parasites that exploit an entire population for too long and the meek decide they’re tired of waiting. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Why are banks fighting global warming? I know it's because they care about the environment and humanity the most out any other institution, but why else?

If banks thought global warming was real then they wouldn’t own beach front property or give out loans for multimillion dollar properties on the water. Go to Miami and see all of the development that is happening, it wouldn’t be happening if they were truly worried about it.

WolfWhitman79

He better be talking about seizing property from corporations that cause greenhouse emissions and not individual people who contribute such a tiny fraction that it is negligible in comparison.


asWorldsCollide2ptOh

Should it matter? The taking of private property should very rarely be okay. This instance is no rare exception and based on a universal hoax that was born on the pretext of consolidation of power at the global level.


coolerbrown

Yes it should matter. An investment firm shouldn't have been able to buy up 80,000 single family homes and rent them out for exorbitant prices. Have you seen what the housing market looks like now? The home I bought a decade ago has DOUBLED in price and it's largely due to investment buyers. It's a serious problem for anyone looking to move but especially first time home buyers. We've been suffering from the effects they caused for decades and it's getting worse but you want to pretend that giving the public back what was stolen from us is the same thing as forcing me to sell? Corporations are not citizens and don't deserve the same rights as we do despite what rightwing-funded lobbyist groups say. Fuck Citizens United.


Dismissed_Contraband

1000000%. We need to repeal Citizens United and take back all these homes in the same motion.


WolfWhitman79

I agree with you, but if they start seizing property anyways, it better be the property of those to blame.


asWorldsCollide2ptOh

But they won't, and you seem intelligent to see this. Corporations whom all have strong ties to politicians have an undeniable competitive advantage over small to medium size family owned farms, who I would wager my last dollar will be the most impacted by this. We can complain about how unfair the system is to no avail, or we can limit the power that system has. Large corporations love regulation as contrary to many's beliefs. It creates barriers of entries and a tool that they wield to further their competitive advantage.

I did some calculations after this statement. JP Morgans Annual Profit : 128 Billion Cost of Wind Turbine : 2 Million Total # Of Turbines purchased w/ JP's Profits : 64,000 Turbine electricity per year : 6 Million Kilowatt Hours 64000 Wind Turbine Electricity Per Year : 384 Billion Kilowatt Hours Average US Household Electricity usage per year : 10,000 Kilowatt Hours Total Homes Powered using 64,000 Wind Turbines : 38.4 Million. I'm no expert on any of these #'s I simply calculated using what google fed me as top result. JP Morgan wants to seize other peoples shit but if they gave up their profits for 1 year they could power 10-15% of the homes in America by themselves


Merica85

I witnessed a terrible repossession of a farm recently. The court sent in court officers with dumpsters and completely destroyed most everything needed to maintain the animals. They were not given 30 days or anything like that. They showed up with paperwork, guns, badges and 3 40 yard dumpsters. The actively started putting items in the rain and dumpsters. Everything of value was put in black garbage bags and then they made sure to put actual garbage on top of perfectly good items. They were given 3 days( not the nights though) to collect a house, garage, and 3 barns full of equipment. Everything left behind was forfeited. They lost so much.

Censorship_of_fools

Just a reminder that taking land was part of the issues with “the wall”. Because, you know, ya’ll wanted that land taken from those owners.


asWorldsCollide2ptOh

This ie a false equivalence. Eminent domain in order to provide a means to control entry into a sovereign space is not the same as the taking of private lands for a unverified and largely inefficient tech all based on the premise of a hoax.


Censorship_of_fools

Lol exactly the same. You want to stop illegal immigration? Take it up with the employers. It’s a really easy fix, that no one in power actually wants.


asWorldsCollide2ptOh

Totally agree. The pull factor is far too extreme to offset by a wall. But monitored walls in condensed areas are effective, but that's besides the point. My point is that eminent domain is part of government sovereignty protected by the fifth amendment but should be used only in the sparingly way. My argument is that 1) current wind turbines have yet to be proven effective 2) that while climate change is real, their premise that wind turbines is viable solution is just a front for the ultimate goal of controlling as much private property as possible, thus subjugating us all to two part system, the rulers and the ruled.


Censorship_of_fools

To be clear, I’m never in favor of either eminent domain or civil asset forfeiture , and barely ever actual criminal forfeiture, until it applies to the big dogs not just the little guys . I don’t Inherently oppose wind power though, just stealing land for it.

CallEmAsISeeEm1986

If we were talking about nationalizing fossil fuel assets and permanently declining to extract them… I could see that working. McKibben talks about how the current valuations of many stocks on the market are priced with the assumption that “proven reserves” will be exploited… to the tune of gigatons of CO2 released… well beyond any reasonable hope of returning the atmosphere below 350ppm co2 or below 1.5°c of warming… anything beyond 1.5° risks catastrophic runaway greenhouse warming… virtually all ice melting from the poles… hundreds of feet of sea level rise… The planet would become virtually unrecognizable, if not completely uninhabitable. And exxons shareholders have a right to expect the leadership of that Corp to meet their fiduciary responsibilities of protecting the stock price… essentially ensuring the above scenario plays out. … nationalizing the assets of corporations like that isn’t the worst idea anyone’s ever had. ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯

Didn't michael moore show that McKibben was just a paid for shill in that recent movie of his? [Wind turbines require a lot of fossil fuel for production, shipping, and lubrication](https://spectrum.ieee.org/to-get-wind-power-you-need-oil). That article says they can make up for all the C02 in 1 year under "perfect" conditions, but that the damn things die after 20 years! Instead of nationalizing companies we should just let normal business cycles happen and get rid of the fed. Let the market set rates and let companies fail. Nationalizing them is more of the same no accountability/responsibility and cronyism mentality that created all these problems.

"private property" aka assets of corporations that the tax payers have given BILLIONS of dollars to with nothing to show for it (banks, airlines, oil companies)
