During the COVID pandemic, the global economy faced instability due to disruptions in supply chains, job losses, and stagflation. Climate change advocates claimed this had a positive impact on the planet, citing a 5.4% drop in emissions. They proposed “climate shutdowns” as a way to intentionally disrupt the global economy to slow climate change.
Some experts, like Mariana Mazzucato, have suggested implementing extreme measures, such as restricting car usage and banning red meat consumption, with the goal of transforming economic structures and operating capitalism differently. However, the idea of combining epidemic shutdowns with climate shutdowns was dismissed as “fake news” by the mainstream media.
Lockdowns proved ineffective and harmful to the global economy, without stopping the spread of COVID-19. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has called for global climate action, advocating for restrictions on economic activity and emissions beyond pandemic measures. Instead of direct shutdowns, the IMF and other globalist organizations may prefer carbon taxes, which could have a similar effect to interest rate hikes used to control inflation.
This could lead to devastating consequences for Western countries, such as energy crises, food shortages, job losses, and ultimately, economic collapse. Global organizations, including the IMF, argue that all countries must achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2030 to prevent the “climate gap” theory.
This suggests a 1.5°C temperature increase could trigger a domino effect leading to environmental disasters and further emissions. However, there is no concrete evidence supporting the climate gap theory, as the link between carbon dioxide emissions and global warming remains controversial. The true purpose of carbon taxes and climate regulations might be to redistribute wealth from developed countries to developing nations while centralizing control over national wealth and individual freedoms.
