Also, before reading my article about "Contraction & Convergence" below, you may read about this seemingly mysterious subject with more understanding, if you first watch a short but powerful You-Tube Video "Environ-Mentalism." That powerful presentation will give you a perspective and overview. I think it will help you read and digest it with much more understanding.

ALL YOU OLD READERS OF THE HIDDEN DANGERS OF THE RAINBOW, LOOK AT THIS!
SPEAKING OF FINDHORN AND THE HIDDEN DANGERS OF THE RAINBOW!!!!
A radical New Age game plan, said to be able to simultaneously cure global warming and world economic disparity woes has gained major backing from key world leaders. Most recently Germany's Angela Merkel led a successful floor fight at a recent climate change conference to win its acceptance. Former British viola player Aubrey Meyer is given credit for its 1995 origins. The plan has clear potential to unify most of its own seemingly disparate elements. It would also neatly tie together various otherwise unmanageable radical factions including USA anti-government types; anti-globalists; Davos World Economic Forum attendees, including but not limited to corporate CEO's; conservative Canadian Christians, New Zealand, Australian, and Canadian "Social Crediters;" Evangelical environmental movements; Matthew Fox type "Creation Centered" theologians; deep ecologists; "Earth First radicals, more moderate environmentalists, and even Communists.
If implemented as now planned it could impoverish, freeze, and starve many. It would radically change the lifestyles to the impoverishment of most! One refreshingly skeptical discussion of this growing usually Amen chorus campaign says it well: "Let's hope that it doesn't come down to needing to buy a carbon permit each time you want to barbecue a steak."
That plan is known as "C&C." That is short for an eerie phrase "Contraction and Convergence." What is to contract 40% to 60% is global use of energy. What is to converge are the resources flowing from developed countries to lesser developed ones. A stagnant or reduced population is assumed. Proponents also headline it as "A Global Framework that Sets a New Economic Agenda."
Most likely, it is one and the same as what Javier Solana referred to as a necessary "new bargain for the environment" in his March 21, 2007 global governance speech at the Brookings Institution. Similar plans are claimed by C&C proponents to have been supported bi-partisanly by United States Senators Byrd and Hagel. At least Senator Chuck Hagel (who recently announced his Senate retirement) is the closest of allies with Javier Solana who made a special trip to Washington in 2003 to award Senator Hagel the Translatlantic Leadership Award. In past years, another close Senate Solana ally, Richard Lugar of Indiana, also won that coveted prize.
Its propaganda has been since 1990 pre-planned and unrelenting. The "C&C" crisis = opportunity is being passed to mainstream media and corporate executives needing "positive images" as gospel along among environmentalists, "sustainable development advocates"; Earth as "goddess Gaia"; Socially Responsible Investors; New Age planners, old fashioned conservationists; and "amen to we must fight global warming" type politicians. It is now benefiting from its pre-planned and executed 15 year unceasing propaganda campaign of claimed "global warming." It has a planned redistribution of wealth that might have made Lenin blush. [See DVD "Liberty or Sustainable Development?]
Above and beyond all that New Age backing which includes what Findhorn chronicler Paul Hawken braggingly recently billed as "the Movement that Nobody Saw Coming," it claims to have the most support for any climate change claimed cure out there, including but not limited to the bad enough Kyoto proposal. In fact, one major recent meeting for global proponents of the radical environmental change movement met at Scotland based New Age Mecca, Findhorn.
Its draconian implications might well have made Stalin in his most ruthless moments smile.
One important meeting, under the auspices of the UN itself, discussing speeding up and implementation of its far reaching draconian proposals has recently taken place at Findhorn. Many have taken at face value the claims made of an alleged "global warming crisis." They lack, as did I, knowledge of the incredible 15 full year propaganda campaign for "Contraction and Convergence." This campaign was launched at the same time as Agenda 21 – in 1992. The pogrom , oops, Program, as implemented would do little to change the climate. It support is now legion, but they have operated relatively low key under the name of "Global Commons Institute." Whether they like it or not, climate is ultimately controlled by the same God many seeking these changes cheerfully deny.
One typical list of some of its academic and otherwise prominent endorsers are names well known to me from my 26 year study of the New Age Movement and its personalities such as Fritjof Capra, Jeremy Rifkin, Rev. Thomas Berry; Rev. Bishop Thomas Gumbleton; Kirkpatrick Sale, and many others.
C&C clearly has the potential to change the economic climate to one of shared hardship for all. It's climate changing potential is at best dubious and untested. Further, implementation of its complex "contraction and convergence" formula, reduced already to mathematical formulae, would undoubtedly require a global snooping system second to none for implementation. It would in effect change the world monetary system from a gold standard to what appear to be a rationed chits for CO2 standard. Verichip's "Digital Angel (or whatever they are calling it this week) as well as Javier Solana's European Space Agency's "Project Galileo" would certainly come in handy for its administration. I'll bet more than one of their number has thought that an implanted microchip tracking system would discourage cheating. In fact, the EU has long since released a complimentary CD upon request of just that sort of tracking potentials of boats, automobiles, and "even somebody out on a walk." I have viewed it many times.
C&C briefing papers claim that only their system comes close to meeting the requirements President George W. Bush says he wants for "stabilizing concentrations in the atmosphere." Global Commons Initiative, the organization led by Aubrey Meyer claims that their system complies with all six of the pre-requisite features demanded by George W. Bush at a Gothenburg EU summit this past June. "
Quoting from an online pamphlet, one that I advise you archive VERY QUICKLY as they tend to remove links as soon as they think we are intelligently reading same,
Climate Change has been the subject of a series of high-level international
meetings, starting with the Kyoto conference in 1997. Agreement in principle was
reached to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by 60 per cent by 2050. But by 2004 the required number of countries—representing 55 per cent of total CO2 discharged into the atmosphere—had still not signed up, and therefore the Kyoto Treaty has still not been formally implemented. It is also becoming increasingly
apparent that Kyoto itself is only a faltering first step in the right direction. Far more radical targets will need to be implemented to prevent a world-wide climate disaster. The London-based Global Commons Institute has proposed a process of Contraction and Convergence, with equal per-capita allowances for greenhouse gas emissions for all the world's countries. This has gathered much international support, but implementation is being blocked . . ."
Well, thank God for the present blockage. Javier Solana says he wants "a new bargain for the environment." The Convergence and Contraction folk, including those of the "World Future Council," say they want "a new social contract." They are talking very similar talk and I fear they may be planning very shortly a common walk. George W. Bush is now rightfully concerned about his legacy as well as popularity. His recent statements on the Law of the Seas and global warming lead me to suspect that he may see global governance and environmental acquiescence as ways to salvage his name for history.
Of course, it is no surprise either that Al Gore has called for its passage and implementation.[1] Al Gore is now reportedly advising Great Britain on climate change issues. We know Al Gore talks with Javier Solana. Solana made a point of saying that in his Washington, D.C. global government mandate speech on March 21, 2007.
Further, Australians are urging their government to pressure international adoption of the Contraction and Convergence formula. Even less surprising is the European Union's support of it. My educated guess is that it is the European Union and its CFSP chief who are the prime movers on this issue.
My further guess is that the specifications and limits will be written up to the European Union's advantage. In the Year 2000, an English based "John Boyd Secretary" convincingly argued on line the parallels between the European Union's planned "peacekeeping" and Hitler's 1930 five year military buildup – first by stealth and then openly. Mr. Boyd then quoted Jacques Santer as saying that they needed to dislodge the USA as a competing superpower in the 'coming 21st century struggle for scarce global resources."
We have handled significant NATO powers and equipment to the EU while they have been building their own alleged "peacekeeping" forces. Javier Solana continues to press for consolidation of all 28 European Union countries' respective military and budgets. The alleged defunct Western European Union, a ten nation military federation has been used for military confab and planning purposes. While the fiction was maintained that the WEU was being shut down, the reality was that it was being "revived." At least, that is what Professor Jolyon Howorth said was happening in his books on NATO and the Western European Union.
The "Contraction and Convergence" timing was certainly interesting! It was 1996,[2] only one year after Javier Solana assumed his NATO command post and the Transatlantic chairmanship that the Contraction and Convergence proposals were submitted to the United Nations. Also of interest is that Al Gore has been reportedly hired to advise the British government on climate change! More interestingly still is that information source article's reporter: Aubrey Meyer, the former symphony viola section member, who is clearly the face and voice for C&C:
"Citing the US bill of rights, Al Gore stated during the recent Live Earth concerts: "We should demand that the US join an international [climate] treaty within the next two years that cuts global warming pollution by 90% in developed countries and by more than 50% worldwide in time for the next generation to inherit a healthy Earth." . .. At last, Gore says what is needed: contraction and convergence (C&C). This is the concept that came from the Global Commons Institute, based in the UK, which I set up in the early 1990s. It says that dangerous rates of climate change can be avoided only by countries agreeing to work together to safely limit the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and agreeing that emissions entitlements converge at a level that is equal, per
capita, for all countries under that limit.[3]
Aubrey Meyer's dedication is clear. So is his genius. This is one favorably stated summary of his plans:
Meyer realized that, if humanity is to survive climate change, a very
different kind of international agreement will be required. Climate change threatens humanity as a whole, and so requires a species-level response. Meyer's proposal - "contraction and convergence" (C&C) - proceeds from the recognition that all countries must act together to set a limit on global greenhouse emissions. Once this limit is agreed (the contraction bit), they must decide how the remaining emissions are to be shared. Meyer's suggested basis for this is equity. Given that we are all created equal, why should poor countries accept a smaller share of the shrinking pie? And so, after a period of transition, all countries are allocated emissions entitlements based on their populations convergence). . . . In practice, both the contraction cap on emissions and the convergence date to equity would be negotiable. World governments might, say, agree to limit global carbon-dioxide concentrations to 450 parts per million - enough, it is hoped, to keep global warming below 2 C - with convergence by 2030. This would give a less developed country such as Bangladesh a large wad of unused emissions, which it could sell for cash on world markets. Countries such as Australia, meanwhile, would have to buy spare emissions credits in order to keep on using a disproportionate amount of fossil fuel. The result would be large financial flows from rich to poor, giving developing countries the resources to participate in the clean energy revolution. . . . In contrast, Kyoto avoids the question . . . "
History is repeating itself. This is not the first emergence of this type of economic scheme. The same doctrine emerged full throttle in the pre-Hitler days. Many theosophists were taken with a political system that would entail a complicated bookkeeping "cashless society." It was known as "Social Credit." A colloquial seeming misspelling was used to identify its partisans: "Social Coediters." In fact, one book currently promoted by the C&C crowd has a chapter, "Planet Earth Money Martyred: Social Credit and Monetary Reform. That book, Babylon and Beyond: the economics of anti-capitalist, anti-globalist and radical green movements is by Derek Wall the "Principal Male Speaker of the Green Party of England and Wales."
C&C is paralleling what was transpiring in the 1920s when Social Credit was introduced by Scottish engineer Major C. H. Douglas. The world was then being both physically and psychologically prepared to receive a new "messiah." That claimed new Theosophical messiah was in the person of one Jiddhu Krishnamurti. The concepts of this movement quickly spread. American ex-patriate poet Ezra Pound, a Theosophist who once lived with William Butler Yeats, was a strong proponent of both Social Credit and Theosophy. Pound later became notorious as a Nazi-Fascist sympathizer. He made an expensive propaganda trip to the USA, accepting an award from his alma mater. Then, as now, there must have been snickering in occult circles as their economic notions, so very strongly paralleling the warned against systems of Revelation 13 were accepted as "Christian." The advantage we have that they lacked is the same one that Marilyn Ferguson bragged made their movement unstoppable: "modern communications have encircled the world beyond any possibility of retreat."
Perhaps their delusion that only their new age "initiation" would enable them to use modern communications is one reason why many of their number are now seeking a new, less egalitarian internet. I wrote of this project in my April 18, 2007 NewsWithViews article. You may read that by clicking here.
Strangely, social credit is widely accepted in portions of Canada today by people who otherwise consider themselves in large part both traditionalist Catholic and conservative Christian. The concepts spread through England as the "Kindred kibbo Kith," and then went into Canada. Social Credit too sought a global cashless society where universal credits would be given and wealth would be redistributed. It had clearly occult origins, but many, especially in depression era times saw it as a solution. Often they promoted it as "Christian."
This is where a most interesting configuration of the New Age and the anti-government movements may also be "harmonically converging." The same John White who wrote the "Special Introduction" to the 1979 Directory for a New World: Thirteenth Annual Edition" writes prolifically for anti-government, pro-militia movements. This is Leland Stewart's organization, "The International Cooperation Council." In that directory, John White was described as "an author, editor, teacher and lecturer engaged in the exploration of consciousness . . . John is a longtime friend of ICC . . ." Creepily, this Theosophist who like another Theosophist who successfully mined anti-government segments of the anti-IRS, anti-government movement, virulent Jew baiter Eustace Mullins. Mullins and John White have beat war drums for the militia movements of "abolish the IRS."
What is coming to "harmonically converge" in the "Contraction and Convergence" is a plan that will bring the old "Social Crediters", the environmentalists, global concert rock banders, third and fourth world countries, people of poverty. Now that Al Gore is on line many of the other masses "will swing into step" as well.
For sure, the Contraction and Convergence Movement has enjoyed obvious financing and powerful support. One abrasively militant but powerful voice backing it has been George Monbiot who has not hesitated to ridicule traditional long held Christian beliefs while simultaneously calling for revolution to implement his own.
The same Paul Hawken who wrote "The Magic of Findhorn," has bragged about "The Movement that Nobody Saw Coming." You can watch it on line for yourself by clicking here.
I spent probably two years researching Ezra Pound and the Social Credit Movement. Together with another researcher, Richard Gilman, we contemplated writing a book in progress that for one reason or another never got finished: "The Ezra Pound Connection." In our reams of materials, now donatend to the University of Michigan and presently not at my fingertips are scholarly references that Hitler planned to make Social Credit his economic system for his post-war society. He went down to defeat, but Social Credit continued in other places. It was particularly popular in large sections of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Particularly in Canada, Social Credit was under the sponsorship of Canadian conservative Christians who had been evangelized for the concept. Hopefully most of these Christians knew nothing of either its Theosophical roots or its "cashless society" agenda. What they saw it as was a solution for depression era loss of homes and income.
Personally startling to me in view of my current research on the European Union and its foreign and military policy chief, Javier Solana is this passage from James Webb's "The Occult Establishment" about one of Social Credit's most prominent leaders, John Hargrave:
"At the same time Hargrave's messages to his following took on an increasingly
apocalyptic tone, in which his old fascination with symbols and mythology was
coupled to a new emphasis on the power of the sun. The supporters of Social
Credit became "Solar Men." They were to pronounce a prayer to the sun for the
success of their efforts. Hasrgrave denounced those who could not see 'the
Social Credit mechanism is founded on a SPIRITUAL BASIS."[4]
That these movements are again creepily converging in a "Contraction and Convergence" with Gaian components is frightening enough. That the program is obviously backed by the leading global governance proponent with a name frighteningly similar to "Solar Men" is even stranger. "Solar Men" should give all great pause. In both past and present, wherever Social Credit has blossomed, so has anti-Semitism. It is a pulse point that those immune to other aspects of the New Age Movement are perhaps vulnerable to. It may well disarm those who perceive themselves immune to other New Age "Harmonic Convergences."
One web resource where these increasingly convergences are freely discussed are conference notes of Global Vision 2000. Social Credit is prominent in New Zealand, Canada, Australia. This will make the remarkably similar C&C selling easier. With the New Age emphasis on "think only positives," they are sure not to visualize anything sinister coming from it. They will sure not think that this global system which could enslave all in chilling poverty. If they are successful, their hoped for system will have a world wide cap on allowable energy use. It will obviously serve LARGER POPULATION. Increases in population will not yield increased national quotas. Given the convergence of a cap on allowable energy (which does not expand with expanding populations) combined with marketable rations of energy to every human being (as always, the rich will get richer and the poor will not only get poorer. If they do have money, what do they have it for – the energy their money is based on has been shipped to the more affluent nations.
I foresee a scenario where we are all poor with inadequate lighting, heating and/or air conditioning, it appears that if these "Social Creditors" cum "Contraction and Convergence" advocates get their way, we are in for a grim global time indeed. We will, indeed, under their scenario be lucky to have the energy to turn our computers on to access even their planned "New internet."
Presently it appears that the USA is facing at least a severe recession. The implementation of this program could turn it into a depression like none the world has ever seen! Sadly, the mortgage crisis may well make the proposed new economic system that goes with the planned energy cuts look like a solution of sorts to many families trapped in the "new economics" of this so-called "New Age."
Is it serious? You bet. With Angela Merkel, Al Gore, George Monbiot, the Findhorn Foundation, New Zealand, Australia, the European Union as well as has been recently reported, President George W. Bush's own energy consultant on board, it is critically serious! It could well be sold in other circles as a way to tear down the Federal Reserve Board and defeat the Bilderbergers. It would clearly take computer tracking and administration, a probable win-win for "Applied Digital Solutions" doing business as "Digital Angel" and "Xmark." The Green Parties and environmentalists love it.
It could well be that draconian solution of which Jeremy Rifkin bragged in his 1981 Bantam New Age Series book, Entropy:
"The radical change in world view required to make this transition will have to
be accomplished virtually overnight. There will be no time for polite debate,
subtle compromise, or momentary equivocation. To succeed will require a zealous
determination – a militancy . . . of herculean proportions."[5]
Also, Rifkin's declaration of the economic system sound remarkably like both that biblically described as an end time scenario and what Aubrey Meyer today is evidently successfully calling forth:
"Without a fundamental redistribution of wealth, all talk of lowering energy
flow and heeding our planet's biological limits will result in nothing but the
rich locking the poor forever into their subservient status. . . ."[6]
I'm not for polluting the water and burning the earth. Even less am I for grandiose ideas where scientists and politicians play God based on the unexamined agendas and ambitions of global warming alarmists. Oh, and by the way, earthquakes are increasing too. To what to they attribute those?
May the Lord help us all!
