Bigworld, >> climate change nonsense <<
Yes, and the it looks like the 'reversal' decision is coming from the highest levels -- Federal Reserve, big banks, Blackrock, etc. It sounds like a major change in LT strategy, and it's about time. China-Russia-BRICS are eating our lunch, so now the gloves come off. And it won't be sanctions, de-SWIFT-ing, proxy wars, etc. Those were tried, and have failed. Now we go with the pro-growth approach that can bring countries back into the US fold. At least I hope that's the plan, because that's the only thing that can work.
Looking back at the climate change strategy, the original goal was to find a global problem that would require a global solution to justify building out the global governance apparatus (UN, IMF, World Bank, etc). They tried global cooling, ozone hole, etc, before settling on global warming, and the broader 'climate change'. The goal was modified from building global governance, to blocking economic development in emerging countries, not because of climate, but to prevent the rise of prosperity in these emerging countries. Historically, a robust and growing middle class is a key threat to an entrenched ruling oligarchy. So the oligarchy works to keep emerging countries backward, struggling, and in debt. This is described by Webster Tarpley in his book 'Against Oligarchy'. Historically the other big threat to oligarchy is overpopulation (--> Covid?)
Anyway, to have any chance of stopping / reversing BRICS expansion, the US / West finance oligarchy will need to quickly restore the US into being a force for good (global economic development). So the first thing to jettison is this climate nonsense. But with dozens of countries leaving the US orbit and clammoring to join BRICS, the hour is late. The oligarchy has finally 'awoken' (as evidenced by the Federal Reserve and banks abandoning climate change), and the Trump period ahead is likely their last chance to turn things around.
