"Now it is time for us to rise to our newest and biggest challenge: to fight the first great war of interdependence, the struggle for climate security." -- Margaret Beckett, British Foreign Secretary, in a speech given in New York the day before the UN Security Council meeting.
The UN Security Council this week held its first ever debate on climate change and the potential threat that global warming poses to international security. British foreign secretary Margaret Beckett, who chaired the meeting, organised the open session to highlight what she called the ‘security imperative’ to tackle climate change. According to Beckett, climate change can exacerbate problems that cause conflicts and threaten the entire planet. She was clearly very pleased with the UK-led initiative, stating that: ‘This is a groundbreaking day in the history of the Security Council, the first time ever that we will debate climate change as a matter of international peace and security.’
Who can deny this? Here the groundwork is being laid to use the deadliest power in history to enforce compliance.
Can't say I'm surprised. Maybe those who didn't believe the scheme was about people control on a global level will begin to see it forming now.

The Great War of Interdependence!!!! Where do I enlist???Originally Posted by NinerSevenTango
We've GOT to join the struggle for Climate Security!!!
So. Who do I shoot first to ensure my interdependence??? If we're truly going to be interdependent, do we shoot each other?
And all this time I thought wars were fought for social and economic reasons....never dreaming that cooler countries were safer, and warmer countries less secure.
Interdependence - the New Fascism.
"Of what importance is all that, if I range men firmly within a discipline they cannot escape? Let them own land or factories as much as they please. The decisive factor is that the State, through the Party, is supreme over them regardless of whether they are owners or workers. All that is unessential; our socialism goes far deeper. It establishes a relationship of the individual to the State, the national community. Why need we trouble to socialize banks and factories? We socialize human beings." -- Adolph Hitler

When trains start running on time, then I will be worried. These days they don't do that anywhere; not even in Germany.
They do in Japan, and as much as I could tell, in Thailand too last time I was there. But I get your point.
"For the first time, humanity is instituting a genuine instrument of global governance, one that should find a place within theWorld Environmental Organisation which France and the European Union would like to see established."
That sentiment was expressed by Jacques Chirac in his 2000 UN address on climate change.

5th paragraph from the end.
The motive seems clear enough to me; no hidden meaning; no interpretation required.
"A discipline they cannot escape"

Cannot comment on Thailand, but not always on time in Japan. Better than Germany though.
Sounds like France would like to pre-surrender. Not a bad idea, except that they want us to also.
The obvious problem here is how climate change is being tied to security, economics, health, and everything else from penguins to rap music. That is a perfect seguey into a new world order.
And who more qualified to lead us? Why, ManBearPig, of course.
The best way to give the poor a real voice is through a world parliament
Global governance as it stands is tyranny speaking the language of democracy. We need a directly elected assembly

"...The campaign for a UN parliamentary assembly is being launched this week on five continents. It is backed by nearly 400 MPs from 70 countries, a long and eclectic list of artists and intellectuals - among them Günter Grass, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Alfred Brendel and Arthur C Clarke - several government ministers and party leaders, including our own Ming Campbell, six former foreign secretaries, the president of the Pan-African Parliament and a former UN secretary general. After 160 years of ridicule, Tennyson's crazy idea is beginning to look plausible.
Those of us who want a world parliament are often accused of trying to invent a system of global governance. But there is already a system of global governance. The UN security council, the World Bank, the IMF and the World Trade Organisation...."

Wouldn't it be nice if we could elevate envy and hatred to the level of international law backed by force?
