The "Contraction and Convergence" Timing was interesting!

It was 1996,[2] only one year after Javier Solana assumed his NATO command post and the Transatlantic chairmanship that the Contraction and Convergence proposals were submitted to the United Nations. Also of interest is that Al Gore has been reportedly hired to advise the British government on climate change! More interestingly still is that information source article's reporter: Aubrey Meyer, the former symphony viola section member, who is clearly the face and voice for C&C:

"Citing the US bill of rights, Al Gore stated during the recent Live Earth concerts: "We should demand that the US join an international [climate] treaty within the next two years that cuts global warming pollution by 90% in developed countries and by more than 50% worldwide in time for the next generation to inherit a healthy Earth."

At last, Gore says what is needed: contraction and convergence (C&C). This is the concept that came from the Global Commons Institute, based in the UK, which I set up in the early 1990s. It says that dangerous rates of climate change can be avoided only by countries agreeing to work together to safely limit the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and agreeing that emissions entitlements converge at a level that is equal, per capita, for all countries under that limit.[3]

Aubrey Meyer's dedication is clear. So is his genius. This is one favorably stated summary of his plans:

Meyer realized that, if humanity is to survive climate change, a very different kind of international agreement will be required. Climate change threatens humanity as a whole, and so requires a species-level response. Meyer's proposal - "contraction and convergence" (C&C) - proceeds from the recognition that all countries must act together to set a limit on global greenhouse emissions. Once this limit is agreed (the contraction bit), they must decide how the remaining emissions are to be shared. Meyer's suggested basis for this is equity. Given that we are all created equal, why should poor countries accept a smaller share of the shrinking pie? And so, after a period of transition, all countries are allocated emissions entitlements based on their populations (convergence).

In practice, both the contraction cap on emissions and the convergence date to equity would be negotiable. World governments might, say, agree to limit global carbon-dioxide concentrations to 450 parts per million - enough, it is hoped, to keep global warming below 2 C - with convergence by 2030. This would give a less developed country such as Bangladesh a large wad of unused emissions, which it could sell for cash on world markets. Countries such as Australia, meanwhile, would have to buy spare emissions credits in order to keep on using a disproportionate amount of fossil fuel. The result would be large financial flows from rich to poor, giving developing countries the resources to participate in the clean energy revolution.

In contrast, Kyoto avoids the question

History is repeating itself. This is not the first emergence of this type of economic scheme. The same doctrine emerged full throttle in the pre-Hitler days. Many theosophists were taken with a political system that would entail a complicated bookkeeping "cashless society." It was known as "Social Credit." A colloquial seeming misspelling was used to identify its partisans: "Social Crediters." In fact, one book currently promoted by the C&C crowd has a chapter, "Planet Earth Money Martyred: Social Credit and Monetary Reform. That book, Babylon and Beyond: the economics of anti-capitalist, anti-globalist and radical green movements is by Derek Wall the "Principal Male Speaker of the Green Party of England and Wales." He maintains an on line blogspot.

Paralleling what was transpiring in the 1920s when Social Credit was introduced by Scottish engineer Major C. H. Douglas, the world was being both physically and psychologically prepared to receive a new "messiah" in the person of one Jiddhu Krishnamurti. The concepts of this movement quickly spread. American ex-patriate poet Ezra Pound, a Theosophist who once lived with William Butler Yeats, was a strong proponent of it. Pound later became notorious as a Nazi-Fascist sympathizer. He made an expensive propaganda trip to the USA, accepting an award from his alma mater. Then, as now, there must have been snickering in occult circles as their economic notions, so very strongly paralleling the warned against systems of Revelation 13 were accepted as "Christian." The advantage we have that they lacked is the same one that Marilyn Ferguson bragged made their movement unstoppable: "modern communications have encircled the world beyond any possibility of retreat."

Perhaps their delusion that only their new age "initiation" would enable them to use modern communications is one reason why many of their number are now seeking a new, less egalitarian internet. I wrote of this project in my April 18, 2007 NewsWithViews article. You may read that by clicking here.

Strangely, social credit is widely accepted in portions of Canada today by people who otherwise consider themselves in large part both traditionalist Catholic and conservative Christian. The concepts spread through England as the "Kindred kibbo Kith," and then went into Canada. Social Credit too sought a global cashless society where universal credits would be given and wealth would be redistributed. It had clearly occult origins, but many, especially in depression era times saw it as a solution. Often they promoted it as Christian.

This is where a most interesting configuration of the New Age and the anti-government movements may also be "harmonically converging." The same John White who wrote the "Special Introduction" to the 1979 Directory for a New World: Thirteenth Annual Edition" writes prolifically for anti-government, pro-militia movements. This is Leland Stewart's organization, "The International Cooperation Council." In that directory, John White was described as "an author, editor, teacher and lecturer engaged in the exploration of consciousness . . . John is a longtime friend of ICC . . ." Creepily, this Theosophist who like another Theosophist who successfully mined anti-government segments of the anti-IRS, anti-government movement, virulent Jew baiter Eustace Mullins. Mullins and John White have beat war drums for the militia movements of "abolish the IRS."

What is coming to "harmonically converge" in the "Contraction and Convergence" is a plan that will bring the old "Social Crediters", the environmentalists, global concert rock banders, third and fourth world countries, people of poverty. Now that Al Gore is on line many of the other masses "will swing into step" as well.

For sure, the Contraction and Convergence Movement has enjoyed obvious financing and powerful support. One abrasively militant but powerful voice backing it has been George Monbiot who has not hesitated to ridicule traditional long held Christian beliefs while simultaneously calling for revolution to implement his own.

The same Paul Hawken who wrote "The Magic of Findhorn," has bragged about "The Movement that Nobody Saw Coming." You can watch it on line for yourself by clicking here.

I spent probably two years researching Ezra Pound and the Social Credit Movement. Together with another researcher, Richard Gilman, we contemplated writing a book in progress that for one reason or another never got finished: "The Ezra Pound Connection." In our reams of materials, now donated to the University of Michigan and presently not at my fingertips are scholarly references that Hitler planned to make Social Credit his economic system for his post-war society. He went down to defeat, but Social Credit continued in other places. It was particularly popular in large sections of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Particularly in Canada, Social Credit was under the sponsorship of Canadian conservative Christians who had been evangelized for the concept. Hopefully most of these Christians knew nothing of either its Theosophical roots or its "cashless society" agenda. What they saw it as was a solution for depression era loss of homes and income.

Personally startling to me in view of my current research on the European Union and its foreign and military policy chief, Javier Solana is this passage from James Webb's "The Occult Establishment" about one of Social Credit's most prominent leaders, John Hargrave:

"At the same time Hargrave's messages to his following took on an increasingly apocalyptic tone, in which his old fascination with symbols and mythology was coupled to a new emphasis on the power of the sun. The supporters of Social Credit became "Solar Men." They were to pronounce a prayer to the sun for the success of their efforts. Hasrgrave denounced those who could not see 'the Social Credit mechanism is founded on a SPIRITUAL BASIS."[4]

That these movements are again creepily converging in a "Contraction and Convergence" with Gaian components is frightening enough. That the program is obviously backed by the leading global governance proponent with a name frighteningly similar to "Solar Men" is even stranger. "Solar Men" should give all great pause. In both past and present, wherever Social Credit has blossomed, so has anti-Semitism. It is a pulse point that those immune to other aspects of the New Age Movement are perhaps vulnerable to. It may well disarm those who perceive themselves immune to other New Age "Harmonic Convergences."

One web resource where these increasingly convergences are freely discussed are conference notes of Global Vision 2000. Social Credit is prominent in New Zealand, Canada, Australia. This will make the remarkably similar C&C selling easier. With the New Age emphasis on "think only positives," they are sure not to visualize anything sinister coming from it. They will sure not think that this global system which could enslave all in chilling poverty. If they are successful, their hoped for system will have a world wide cap on allowable energy use. It will obviously serve LARGER POPULATION. Increases in population will not yield increased national quotas. Given the convergence of a cap on allowable energy (which does not expand with expanding populations) combined with marketable rations of energy to every human being (as always, the rich will get richer and the poor will not only get poorer. If they do have money, what do they have it for � the energy their money is based on has been shipped to the more affluent nations.

I foresee a scenario where we are all poor with inadequate lighting, heating and/or air conditioning, it appears that if these "Social Creditors" cum "Contraction and Convergence" advocates get their way, we are in for a grim global time indeed. We will, indeed, under their scenario be lucky to have the energy to turn our computers on to access even their planned "New internet."

Presently it appears that the USA's is facing at least a severe recession. The implementation of this program could turn it into a depression like none the world has ever seen! Sadly, the mortgage crisis may well make the proposed new economic system that goes with the planned energy cuts look like a solution of sorts to many families trapped in the "new economics" of this so-called "New Age."

Is it serious? You bet. With Al Gore, George Monbiot, the Findhorn Foundation, New Zealand, Australia, the European Union as well as has been recently reported, President George W. Bush's own energy consultant. It could well be sold in other circles as a way to tear down the Federal Reserve Board and defeat the Bilderbergers. It would clearly take computer tracking and administration, a probable win-win for "Applied Digital Solutions" doing business as "Digital Angel" and "Xmark." The Green Parties and environmentalists love it. It could well be that draconian solution of which Jeremy Rifkin bragged in his 1981 Bantam New Age Series book, Entropy:

"The radical change in world view required to make this transition will have to be accomplished virtually overnight. There will be no time for polite debate, subtle compromise, or momentary equivocation. To succeed will require a zealous determination � a militancy . . . of herculean proportions."[5]

Also, Rifkin's declaration of the economic system sound remarkably like both that biblically described as an end time scenario and what Aubrey Meyer today is evidently successfully calling forth:

"Without a fundamental redistribution of wealth, all talk of lowering energy flow and heeding our planet's biological limits will result in nothing but the rich locking the poor forever into their subservient status. . . ."[6]

I'm not for polluting the water and burning the earth. Even less am I for grandiose ideas where scientists and politicians play God based on the unexamined agendas and ambitions of global warming alarmists.

May the Lord help us all! Oh, and by the way, earthquakes are increasing too. To what to they attribute those? For part one click below.

5, ENTROPY: A NEW WORLD VIEW by Jeremy Rifkin. It should be noted that this book was endorsed in its unpublished manuscript form by Pat Robertson. I discussed this at length in chapter 15 of my second book, A PLANNED DECEPTION (1985). It is interesting that Pat Robertson endorsed both "non-coercive" taking of the implanted microchip as well as Jeremy Rifkin's book about a very forced New World Order! On August 3, 2006, the Associated Press, "Heat Wave Makes Pat Robertson a Global Warming Convert." Those who considered a switching of sides may not have had the opportunity to read my now out of print book, A PLANNED DECEPTION: THE STAGING OF A NEW AGE MESSIAH (1985). I cited ample material in that plainly showing Pat Robertson's 1980 endorsement of Jeremy Rifkin's plainly stated environmental agenda!
