Agenda 21 in action

From UNESCO

Education for Sustainable Development (ESD)

"In 2009, Learning and Teaching Scotland, the lead agency responsible for the school curriculum in Scotland, launched the experiences and outcomes relating to the new curriculum entitled Curriculum for Excellence. This new curriculum represents the biggest transformation in Scottish education ever to take place. Global citizenship, including education for sustainable development, is formally embedded within the experiences and outcomes of the curriculum and schools are being encouraged to adopt a whole school approach to these issues..."

"Climate change is a particularly strong driver of ESD at present, likely as a result of the government`s increased engagement in climate change-related matters, which includes establishment of a dedicated government department, and a national media campaign on carbon reduction, but also due to increased engagement of the non-governmental organisation (NGO) sector and grassroots actors on climate change."

"In Scotland, a separate Climate Change (Scotland) Act was passed in 2009 and the Scottish Government published a Climate Change Delivery Plan, which called for a progressive sustainable development agenda that included full decarbonisation of road transport by 2050."

It is the reason why there has been the biggest dumbing down of children in Scottish education ever.

Decarbonisation

"Householders across the country will be horrified to learn that, over the next decade or two, the Government plans to phase out all our gas-fired cookers and heating systems —forcing us to replace them at a cost of untold billions."

"Official documents reveal the Government is seriously contemplating that, within 25 years or so, gas will be all but banned — along with petrol and diesel."

"The intention is that not only our cooking and heating but much else, including our cars and most of the vehicles on Britain’s roads, will have to be powered by electricity."

"The Government admits this astonishingly ambitious plan will be the most far-reaching energy revolution since electricity itself was discovered."

"This particular piece of legislative folly was pushed through Parliament six years ago by Ed Miliband, as our first ever Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, and decreed that Britain must cut its emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuels by a staggering 80 per cent within 35 years."

 

"When this Act passed almost unanimously through Parliament in 2008, not a single MP, let alone Mr Miliband, had the faintest idea how we could actually meet such an improbable target."

 

"This landed officials of the Department of Energy and Climate Change with the virtually impossible task of working out how we could meet our legal obligation — short of closing down virtually all our fossil-fuel-dependent economy."

 

"What they came up with was set out in a 244-page document entitled ‘2050 Pathways Analysis’, which explains how they imagine we might achieve what they call the ‘de-carbonisation’ of Britain."

"Let me quote one passage from the Department of Energy’s report: ‘Demand for electricity,’ it tells us, ‘would double by 2050 as a result of electrification of much of industry, heating and transport. Decarbonisation would mean that all of the UK’s electricity would come from low carbon sources by the 2040s."

"This would firstly be achieved, it continues, ‘by making significant use of the UK’s wind resource’. An indication of what ‘significant’ means in this context is to be found in another Department of Energy document, which suggests it plans to build up to 20,000 wind turbines on land, and up to 40,000 more offshore."

This toxic lake poisons Chinese farmers, their children and their land. It is what's left behind after making the magnets for Britain's latest wind turbines...

It is not often we hear a politician speaking out against Agenda 21 but here is Ann Bressington. She notes how `climate change` is being used as the rallying point to bring in the transformational change that is Agenda 21.

Decarbonisation will be responsible for decimating industry, but there is more. If we want to feed the world, locking up atmospheric carbon dioxide so that it is unavailable for plant growth, is madness. See the link below which provides many examples of the benefits of carbon dioxide to plants.

Of course, Education for Sustainable Development has nothing to say about this.
