British Govt Makes Another Straw Man

UK Govt: Climate Change Denial Devil in the Detail

In Big Brother’s birthplace govt makes a straw man for others to knock down, perpetuating the fallacy of “NO climate change”

Britain’s Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has banned posters based on the children’s poems Jack and Jill and Rub-A-Dub-Dub because it says they exaggerated  claims about the threat of global warming to Britain!

Why the Ban? They say predictions on the impact of global warming made by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) “involved uncertainties” that the adverts did not reflect. They received about 940 complaints.

Why the UK govt did this? British govt, in its time-old tradition, booby-trapped  their own campaign by intentionally wording the posters in a controversial way so as to invite criticism, objections and complaints, knowing that the adverts would then fall victim to the “yobbo culture” and become the laughing stock of the corporate media. This campaign was ultimately an exercise in trivializing the seriousness of the threats posed by climate change,  especially to Britain.

It was designed not only to  remove any vestiges  of doubt in the mind of the “undecided” about the climatic impacts, and conditioning them to side with the denialists, but to strengthen the atmosphere of ridicule preventing any serious discussion of climate change, and intimidating potential participants.

Google: Dark Force Against the People

4 in 5 people surveyed say Internet access is ‘a fundamental right’

As Google Inc, the Internet mafia boss, continues to block, filter and bury important information posted on Fire-Earth and its affiliated blogs, four in five people around the world say access to the internet is a fundamental right, according to a poll for the BBC.

More than 27,000 adults across 26 countries who were surveyed  expressed strong support for Internet access “on both sides of the digital divide.” BBC reported.

The “Big Brother” is blocking even earthquake and tsunami information posted on this blog—information which could save lives.

Finland and Estonia have already ruled Internet access as  a human right for their citizens.

“International bodies such as the UN are also pushing for universal net access.” BBC said.

“The right to communicate cannot be ignored,” Dr Hamadoun Toure, secretary-general of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) said.

“The internet is the most powerful potential source of enlightenment ever created.”

Toure said that governments must “regard the internet as basic infrastructure – just like roads, waste and water.”

“We have entered the knowledge society and everyone must have access to participate.”
