London 28 June: An explosive report from the Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) reveals that efforts to recycle plastic are a major cause of the marine litter problem. The report, written by public health expert Dr Mikko Paunio, sets out the case for incinerating waste rather than trying to recycle it.
* Most of the plastic waste comes from just a few countries, mostly in Asia and Africa.
* Most of the plastic waste comes from just a few countries, mostly in Asia and Africa.
* 25% is “leakage” from Asian waste management processes — the rest is waste that has never been collected, but is simply thrown into rivers.
* But European countries ship inject huge quantities of waste into Asian waste management streams, ostensibly for recycling. As much as 20% — millions of tons every year — ends up in the oceans and will continue to do so.
* Since the Chinese banned waste imports at the start of the year, shipments have…

The Global Warming Policy Foundation is a corporate-funded right wing nut job think tank in the U.K. Their stated aims are to challenge “extremely damaging and harmful policies” by governments intended to mitigate anthropogenic global warming. They have publicly stated the embarrassingly ignorant claim that the science of climate change is “not yet settled” – ignoring scientific studies completed around the world. The organization, as well as many of its prominent members, are known to promote climate change denial.
Obviously, anything promoted by these parasites must be analyzed with the understanding that their agenda, despite the erroneous name implying an understanding of science, is one of continuing corporate control of the planet and all of our resources.

I do agree on the corporate control of the planet however I believe that the climate has changed because of extensive, long term (denied) geoengineering. Not the CO2 yarn spun by Al Gore.

Why do you automatically assume it can only be one or the other? Almost everything has multiple causes. Everything is connected, there are no completely separate systems on the planet.
Besides, my comment is valid either way.
The people doing the bioengineering – such as fluoridation of water, huge amounts of synthetic chemicals put into our food supply, desertification of soil due to the loss of bio-diversity (thanks to the despicable products of Monsanto, Dow Chemical and others), virtually no regulation of drinking water or of industrial waste disposal and HAARP as well as the psychological war waged against us by corporate media – are the wealthy executives of corporations. They are the very same type of person spinning yarns about the danger of recycling (one of the most ridiculous stories yet). They are the rulers and they have the money – which gives them the ability to buy people, media attention, legislation and set the standards for how we live our lives.
Remember: follow the money.
That’s the key to unraveling conspiracies of corruption. Why do evil people do the evil things they do? Money and control. And the control is about keeping this despicable system in place – keeping the money flowing from our pockets into their massive bank accounts.

Hi ashiftinconsciousness. Thanks for replying. I do agree things are connected for sure, but because you raised the climate aspect in particular, I was referring to the man made alteration of that as being a major factor. My main menu indicates acknowledgement of many sources of pollution/destruction of the planet. And true it is follow the money, a major theme of this site also. I do post other site articles at times that I”ll admit I don’t always read really thoroughly & have been picked up a bit more recently on certain aspects of that. Especially the multi cause aspect. Back to climate, it’s not all that long ago I was alerted to the fake yarn from Gore, 5 yrs maybe. Many still go by that spin I see. In fact I was sent nasty hate emails and messages saying I was on their list to watch & they were coming for me. It’s really a touchy subject. Anyhow, thanks for your feedback. Appreciated. 🙂

You are very welcome. I apologize if I got too intense, but I am a passionate person who cares about the planet, fellow living beings and truth.
There are a multitude of weapons the parasitic class have at their disposal and they are adept at misleading virtually everyone on virtually every issue that matters. They are also adept at getting us to talk about things that don’t matter – misdirection. They are clever, but can be defeated if we concentrate on exposing who collects wealth at the expense of others, how they do it and make the many deceptively hard to find connections between the conspirators.
I know you live in New Zealand and I don’t want to come off as an arrogant “American” – but I suggest you post an article about the corporate incest that permeates modern society. Research how many people sit on the boards of many corporations and see how many of them have infected our governments by purchasing elections and appointing fellow capitalists in positions of power that people don’t pay attention to. People need to make the connections between all of the corporate manipulators who are taking control over the global food supply (and just about everything else) and be encouraged to boycott as many of their products as possible to lessen their income. It’s voting with our money since most of us don’t have an actual vote in elections. I’m not sure if your election situation is as bad as ours in the U.S., but we no longer have elections, we have selections. We can only vote with our purchases, and sadly, most people are too ignorant, weak and addicted to their wants to help the cause. But we must continue to educate people about what is going on.
I know you care, but we can’t blindly accept anything that, at first glance, seems to be important information that is being suppressed by corporate media. The manipulators are clever enough to publish a lot of information with a little bit of important truth sandwiched inside tempting, intriguing misinformation which will lead us into dead ends. That’s why we need to follow the money. Profits and prophets are mutually exclusive. Thank you for your time.
Peace.

Yes, a local investigative author Barry Smith discovered the selections not elections in your country back in the 80s I believe it was. Our elections, well, the two supposedly main parties differ little of course so we have the illusion of choice going on. All globalists at the end of the day, highlighted in a short video by Vinny Eastwood pre last election. It’s on the left of the news page here. I started out & continue to highlight corporate corruption as being the root of much of the problems we see nowadays. And the follow the money theme. So much to cover isn’t there? This year particularly busy so unable to write and research a lot at the moment whcih is why I’m reblogging a lot. Our biggest issues are 1080 & privatisation of lands & assets by councils atm. Also see 5G as huge but most are oblivious to that. Thanks again for your feedback. And you’re not sounding arrogant. No worries there. 🙂
