"Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket."
Barack Hussein Obama - January 2008

I will keep this as simple as possible to tell a story big enough to affect the whole world . The history of the "Global Warming" aka "Climate Change" scam began long before Obama. But, it is with his engagement and with the help of a key figure Al Gore, and the supportive media at Obama's command, that the scam has grown to epic proportions. This story being too large for a single article, I have selected a special interest here while providing sources below for a reader's own investigation. To truly understand the agenda, as always, follow the money.


 


Although we could trace the seeds of origins back much further, I've chosen to start with a hike up Acadia's Cadillac Mountain in 1980 where John B Henry and C Boydon Gray discussed allowing people to buy and sell the right to pollute. Back then it was called emissions trading. 


 


1990 was a pivotal year when President George H. W. Bush addressed "Acid Rain" by sending a bill to congress amending the Clean Air Act (CAA) allowing for the first large scale Cap and Trade allowance trading system to control Sulfur Dioxide. He signed it also in 1990. An interesting side note is that it was pro coal state Democrats that had held up pro Cap and Trade legislation for years. 


 


1998 brought us the Kyoto Protocol where we were introduced in a major way to all of the same catch phrases we hear today, global warming, climate change, and  emissions trading. We also frequently heard another phrase that has since fallen by the wayside out of popular jargon, that being "greenhouse gas emissions. I reckon this may be due to the fact that this theory became highly disputed and lost it's power to persuade.  


 


2003 Gave us the Chicago Climate Exchange, the world's first carbon emissions trading company equipped to regulate all transactions made under cap-and-trade energy plans designed to restrict and tax greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions produced by U.S. companies. The earliest roots of CCX can be traced back to 2000, when Dr. Richard Sandor – an economist, a research professor at the Northwestern University, and the former head of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange – began to study the feasibility of initiating a cap-and-trade system in the United States. At that time, Sandor owned a firm called Environmental Financial Products (EFP). He also knew Illinois state senator Barack Obama, who, in addition to his legislative duties, was a board member of the Chicago-based Joyce Foundation, which had long been a major donor to radical environmental groups and causes. In 2001, Obama helped steer a $347,600 Joyce Foundation grant to Sandor's EFP. The foundation's president, Paula DiPerna, stated that this grant was intended to “support the design of a pilot phase for a carbon dioxide emissions trading market, called the Chicago Climate Exchange.”


 


In November 2002Franklin Raines and nine partners collaborated, on behalf of Fannie Mae, to apply for a patent on the software technology they had purchased from Carlton Bartels' widow. One of those partners was former Fannie Mae vice president Scott Lesmes, who was responsible for the aforementioned mortgage-bundling scheme. Another was Robert Sahadi, also a onetime Fannie Mae VP, who now runs GreenSpace Investment Financial Services out of his 5,000-square-foot Maryland home.



The U.S. Patent and Trade office approved the patent on November 7, 2006, the day after the Democrats took control of Congress. The patented technology, which is now utilized by CCX, bundles CO2 and other GHGs in a manner similar to how Fannie Mae bundled toxic mortgages under Raines and Lesmes. The patent summary describes how carbon “and other pollutants yet to be determined” will be “combined into a single emissions pool” and traded.


By Sandor's reckoning, cap-and-trade represents a $10 trillion-per-year market. Recognizing the enormous profit potential, Generation Investment Management (GIM) – a carbon-offset company whose chairman and founding partner is Al Gore – purchased a 10 percent stake in CCX and became the company's fifth largest co-owner. In 2006, Goldman Sachs also purchased a 10 percent share of CCX.


A new coal industry campaign is trying to link presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to President Obama’s controversial environmental policies.


The video and memo labels the Obama administration’s new carbon dioxide limits for power plants as “Obama/Clinton Cap and Trade II” in an attempt to blame Clinton for both the rule and the carbon cap-and-trade legislation that failed to pass Congress in 2010.


Fast Forward - Reported in Sept. 2015 “Last month President Obama released illegal energy regulations dressed up as his failed cap-and-trade energy plan of 2010,” the video, released Tuesday by the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCCE), says.


“Hillary Clinton has vowed to ‘defend’ and ‘build on’ President Obama’s carbon emissions regulations.”


It warns that many Democratic lawmakers who voted in 2009 to pass the House version of the cap-and-trade bill were “slaughtered” in the 2010 midterm elections.


In November the Kyoto Plan was tossed effectively, From NPR "It's the 21st "Conference of the Parties" held by the United Nations to tackle climate change. One treaty emerged, in 1997, after the conference in Kyoto, Japan. That's no longer in effect, and, in fact, the Kyoto Protocol, as it's known, didn't slow down the gradual warming of the planet. (Said gradual warming of the planet is completely in dispute and that is the subject of an entirely different nature!) 


In December 2015 We were confounded with this statement from Obama ( Reported here from CNSNews.com) - At news conference in Paris on Tuesday, President Obama said "the most elegant way" to reduce carbon emissions is "to put a price on it."


He was responding to a reporter who asked Obama, "I wonder if you see any political path back home toward putting a price on carbon?" "I have long believed that the most elegant way to drive innovation and to reduce carbon emissions is to put a price on it. This is a classic market failure," Obama replied.


Links below offer extensive information on the time line given above as well as the ongoing propaganda, absurdities, such as Obama claiming that global warming is the biggest threat we face today, the attack on anyone who doesn't fall for the scheme and information relating to scientists who oppose the false data sets used to brain wash the world into accepting a scheme to make billionaires more money from trading pollution.

Breathing emits carbon dioxide. I can see them using that to justify reducing the earths population.

Can you imagine if they start taxing us and we can sell our rights to breath in trade if we don't breath as much as expected? That's how crazy this is.

Well.... things are getting so crazy now I don't see it beyond the realm of possibility. That used to be said jokingly but I'm not laughing anymore.
