This is a talk given by authour Gwynne Dyer about the geo-political implications
of climate change. This talk presents a vision of the near-future in which the effects of
climate change, (water shortages, flooding of river deltas, and desertification of croplands)
have prevented humanity from growing enough food to feed all seven billion of us. This talk
considers how governments are likely to react to such horrific circumstances. These ideas are
unpleasant to consider, but it is necessary to confront such challenges if you wish to
understand reality, and be prepared to survive in the complex and chaotic world of tomorrow.
This talk is about an hour long. I encourage you to put aside your ego and consider these ideas,
for the world that Dyer envisions is the world that our children will live in.
Found this one today, hiding in plain sight. Of course its no accident
or coincidence, advertisers do this all the time.
No wonder the site is so popular.
I've been playing around with a movie editor program, and I've produced a quick
promotional video for the Bread With Circus podcast. The video features the famous farewell
address of President Dwight "Ike" Eisenhower warning about danger of the rise of the military
industrial complex, and its ability to subvert democracy and liberty.
You can decide for yourself if what Eisenhower feared has become our reality.

Understanding the connections between energy, economics, politics and culture,
this is independent media. From Whitehorse, Yukon, this is Bread With Circus Radio.
Alex speaks out against the climate change deniers, debunking "Climategate,"
and challenging the manipulated footsoldiers of the "truth" movement as they wage
their "infowar" against humanity's self interest.
If there were a global elite that wanted to kill so many of us, they could
convince a great number of people to rally AGAINST action on climate change.
Then, when the droughts, the coastal flooding, the mosquito borne diseases,
desertification and the inevitable water wars strike and so many third-worlders die,
mother nature can be blamed. Perhaps the truthers should consider that the oil
companies ARE the "NWO."
The Bread With Circus Podcast #20, about investigating the "Truth Movement" is now
available as a youtube presentation. I've posted it below, hope you enjoy it.
Please feel free to pass it along.
Bread With Circus #20 - Investigating the Truth Movement - Part
1 of 3
It is time for good people to speak out. Although "Climategate" is little
more than another oil industry dis-information campaign, the people who are screaming
that a few emails have somehow undone decades of solid science seem to be winning
the battle for the soul of the West. ExxonMobil talking points are now effortlessly
parroted by an army of echo-chamber bloggers acting in lockstep with major media outlets
like FoxNews and the Drudge Report. Their champions are people like Senator James Inhofe
of Oklahoma, one of the most compromised and corrupted people on the planet.
It is time to stand up and fight back. I encourage all of good conscience to stand
up to those now rallied, emboldened, and bankrolled by the fossil fuel industry. We must
stand up and call them on their lies. They are actively working to prevent any
action that may mitigate the coming train wreck of runaway climate change,
which means that they are also actively working to drown your grandchildren.
The truth is with us, and though this will become painfully obvious in the
upcoming years, in the meantime we have to at least try to stand up for future generations.
This isn't about Al Gore, or a trading scheme. Science itself is being brutalized
by an angry mob, and billions will suffer if the mob is allowed to triumph.

"This month’s bad news came from the drilling ship JOIDES Resolution (Joint Oceanographic
Institutions for Deep Earth Sampling), which brought up cores from the ocean bottom containing
sediments dating back 20 million years. The news was that when the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
was last at 450 parts per million, the average global temperature was 3-6 degrees C hotter than now, and
the sea level was 25-40 metres (80-130 ft) higher."
"Comments made by some of the scientists in the personal messages have been interpreted
to suggest that global warming is a grand hoax. What it really shows is how politicized and
polarized climate science has become and how the real science is being covered over by a
denial industry that uses selective information to distort the issue and confuse the public."
"...do these revelations justify the sceptics' claims that this is "the final nail in the coffin"
of global warming theory? Not at all. They damage the credibility of three or four scientists. They raise
questions about the integrity of one or perhaps two out of several hundred lines of evidence."
CBC Documentary about the oil industry's efforts to confuse public opinion about the science of
global warming while undermining the position of science in our society.
Alex relates his experiences investigating the "truth" movement,
shares his thoughts on "Climategate," and looks into the core beliefs
of many of the people fighting against climate action.
