Today’s high priests of climate-change apocalypse are undoubtedly correct in predicting that in just a few short years, the earth may well become miserable, wretched and almost uninhabitable by human beings.
But ironically, such a grim future won’t come about because of “catastrophic climate change,” as global-warming zealots claim. Rather, the earth will become the pitiful and desolate habitat for mankind they predict, with massive suffering and death – if their genuinely catastrophic agenda is actually implemented.
Dr. Patrick Moore, co-founder of the environmental group Greenpeace, recently said regarding the elites’ insistence on reducing greenhouse gases to “Net Zero”: “If they actually achieve Net Zero, at least 50% of the population would die of hunger and disease.”
Likewise, energy expert Alex Epstein, in his critically acclaimed book, “Fossil Future,” writes: “Today’s proposed policies to rapidly eliminate fossil fuel use would, if fully implemented, have truly apocalyptic consequences – making the world an impoverished, dangerous, and miserable place for most people. And even if fossil fuel elimination policies aren’t fully implemented,” he adds, “… even widespread restrictions on fossil fuel use that fall far short of elimination will shorten and inflict misery on billions of lives, especially in the poorest parts of the world.”
Epstein, founder of the Center for Industrial Progress, doesn’t claim fossil fuels and CO2 emissions don’t impact climate in any way. “I totally acknowledge,” he writes, “that they have contributed to the 1-degree Celsius warming we’ve experienced over the last one-hundred-plus years.”
Question: When the scientific case for catastrophic global warming and its resulting global apocalypse consists largely of a 1-degree rise in temperature over more than 130 years – in a world where global temperatures are widely acknowledged to have risen and fallen spontaneously over the ages – why are all the governments of the Western world obsessed with catastrophic climate change as their unifying principle of governing, public policy and virtually all of life?
Before addressing the astonishing truth underlying what has become, in reality, a full-fledged false religion created and exploited by global elites who want to rule the world, let’s first consider those segments of society most captivated by this apocalyptic cult.
Strangely, while claiming to follow “the science,” global warming cult followers tend to comprise the very population demonstrating the least regard for actual scientific truth in other areas of life and public policy:
* Many believe a baby inside its mother’s womb is not a human being at all – at least, not until the very moment he or she is born, when that child instantaneously morphs into a person of great value, with all the God-given and constitutional rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. One minute earlier, the child was a glob of worthless tissue, equivalent to a tumor that could be ripped into pieces, extracted and disposed of as medical waste. This is an entirely accurate, if graphic, representation of the prevailing belief of today’s Democratic Party, with 46 Senate Democrats having voted just last year in favor of legalizing abortion up until the very moment of birth.
* This same population segment tends to believe that seriously mentally ill men who claim they are women actually are women – and vice versa. Worse, they defend the practice of grooming thousands of emotionally fragile teenagers into undergoing horrendous amputations and other harmful, irreversible “treatments” in pursuit of gender transitions that are not only scientifically impossible, but insane.
* During the COVID-19 pandemic, despite ever-increasing scientific data regarding the virus and its scandalous origins, unprecedented negative effects of the experimental “vaccines,” and the proven safety and effectiveness of lifesaving medications like Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin, these are the people who tended to ignore the actual science and instead side with lying, power-addicted federal bureaucrats and greedy pharmaceutical companies.
* What about the news media’s obsession with climate apocalypse? Hint: “If it bleeds, it leads.” Starting well over a century ago, in 1895, the New York Times scared its readers to death with warnings of a coming “new ice age.” This media-driven hysteria lasted into the late 1920s, when the Times suddenly switched gears and warned “the earth is steadily growing warmer.” That lasted until 1954, when Fortune magazine led the way with a warning that another ice age was coming. Although the New York Times stoked “global warming” fears into the late 1950s, by 1975 it was back to “new ice age” hysteria. A few years later, the Times reverted back to panicking its readers over global warming of an “almost unprecedented magnitude.”
* More troubling, how about all the scientists who have joined the cult of the climate apocalypse? Why would they go along with an overblown, politically driven hoax? The answer, sadly, became clear during the COVID era, when many scientists, doctors and hospitals adopted the questionable views and medical practices of highly politicized and dishonest federal agencies like the FDA and the CDC. Rather than “following the science” themselves – as a few courageous and principled doctors did, and who often were seriously persecuted for their integrity – most doctors and scientists lacked the requisite courage to take a stand and risk losing their positions or even their careers. After all, the saying goes, “I have a family to support.”
* Of all the groups swept up into climate hysteria, the easiest to understand would be the millions of young people traumatized and indoctrinated daily in the government (“public”) school system about near-term, human-caused catastrophic climate change. Brainwashing a child into fearing the future and loathing the adults supposedly responsible for destroying their planet is egregious child abuse, as epitomized in the case of Greta Thunberg. Though burdened with autism, OCD and eating disorders, this very troubled 16-year-old Swedish girl somehow was presented to the world as the voice of the younger generation and an expert on climate science, scolding the entire adult population in her famous U.N. speech. “How dare you?” she thundered. “You have stolen my dreams and my childhood.” Multiply Greta Thunberg by millions, and one gets a glimpse of what government education and the news media are doing to the next generation.
‘Some kind of god’
But what about the real villains, the people who know the global warming religion of near-term apocalypse is a cruel hoax, and exists simply as a means to a greater end that has nothing at all to do with the weather?
The global elites – the super-wealthy climate-change avatars who fly into Davos in their mega-gas-guzzling-and-polluting private jets while scolding everyone else for driving cars, and who dine on steak and lobster while admonishing the rest of the world to dine on insects – these are the high priests of the global apocalyptic climate cult.
To understand them, it’s essential to dispense with the old paradigms of “liberal,” “progressive,” “democratic” and other feelgood but increasingly meaningless ideological labels. The true leaders of this movement are sociopaths whose only ideology and value system is personal wealth, power, privilege, honor and glory for themselves, and who are obsessed with ruling planet earth. They want to be gods. So far, only billionaire leftist George Soros has had the nerve to actually describe himself, to the news media, as “some kind of god.”
The heart and soul of today’s bizarre, pagan, climate-change religion, which has emerged as the primary vehicle global elites are using to completely transform and rule the world, is powerfully exposed and illuminated in the September issue of WND’s critically acclaimed Whistleblower magazine, an issue titled “CULT OF THE CLIMATE APOCALYPSE: The elites’ breathtaking strategy for ruling the world.”

- “Climate science makes a bad religion: With this ‘faith,’ ‘our lives will always have to get worse until the weather improves’” by Daniel McCarthy.
“Unfortunately,” notes bestselling author and Whistleblower Editor David Kupelian, “the high priests of the global climate cult possess an effective camouflage, one rooted in the innate decency of normal people who simply don’t comprehend what sociopaths are really like. After all, people with an intact conscience – which hopefully still includes most Americans – may readily understand the normal flaws besetting normal people, like becoming upset, angry, confused, anxious or depressed. They do not, however, readily recognize nor comprehend the sociopath’s desire to control the world, or his or her willingness to let massive numbers of people suffer and die, or their ability to look directly into a television camera – which is to say, look right into the eyes of millions of people – and lie without inner conflict. This is a breed of people animated by feelings, desires and ambitions completely foreign to decent people. So, it’s easy to be blind to this ‘ruling elite’ mindset, which includes some of the top climate change global high priests.”

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
