UK Govt Pouring Big Bucks Into UN Initiative To Censor Climate Dissent
by Chris Morrison  Dec 6, 2024
 
The British Government is one of the main financial backers of a new international campaign designed to suppress online climate science skepticism ahead of next year’s ‘make-or-break’ COP30 in Brazil. [emphasis, links added]

Run by the United Nations and UNESCO, the Global Initiative for Information Integrity on Climate Change was signed off at the recent G20 Summit in Brazil.


Part of its remit will fund non-profit outfits rooting out so-called disinformation and promoting ‘public awareness campaigns’.

Commenting on the campaign, the UN’s global communications flack Melissa Fleming noted that a growing number of people are waking up to the harms caused by climate disinformation and “toxic information ecosystems in general”.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

"The Petition Project", a petition to NOT sign on to the Kyoto accords because anthropogenic global warming was far from proven, and signed by over 30,000 scientists (disproving consensus) has been scrubbed from the web, even the Wayback Machine.
 
Snopes says there is no proof that the scientists who signed were, in fact, scientists, but I know I had to provide my bona fides before my signature was accepted. Linus Pauling was a signatory, too. Snopes is full of sh*t.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
