The Blob makes another move to expand their empire
A group of unelected officials in something called the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACHR) has decided that humans have the “right” to a stable climate and thus, you have the right to pay for it. The court that nobody has heard of says “states have legal obligations to protect people alive today and future generations from the impacts of climate breakdown.”
This includes the obligation to cut emissions, and to guard against the threat of climate disinformation. (Yes, they know they are lying.)
Personally I’d prefer to have the right to free speech, real science, and laws written in simple English:
Countries must protect human right to a stable climate, court rules
Isabella Kaminski, The Guardian
There is a human right to a stable climate and states have a duty to protect it, a top court has ruled.
“Top court”, my foot.
Like pagan sorcery, the government is expected to stop storms, floods and droughts. Even though this is an impossible fantasy the mere attempt at managing the illusion of it will employ tens of thousands of lawyers, accountants, technicians, diplomats and representatives who will all get travel allowance and hardship funding for flights to Tahiti. And that’s the whole point isn’t it?
Announcing the publication of a crucial advisory opinion on climate change on Thursday, Nancy Hernández López, president of the inter-American court of human rights (IACHR), said climate change carries “extraordinary risks” that are felt particularly keenly by people who are already vulnerable.
This is a form of meta-lawfare — to get around the problem of a “science debate” they can’t win, some random court makes a ruling that simply assumes that governments can control the weather, and that speaking against it is going to harm “the vulnerable” (which really means it will hurt lifelong career grifters.) This toothless unaccountable court is a legal theatre that generates headlines, pressure, and ammunition for lawyers in more important courts to try to glue this kind of parasite into proper court rulings. They will cite this absurd legalese fantasy to baffle anyone who gets in their way, and to wind up teenage girls and journalists in The Guardian:
In the strongly worded and wide-ranging 300-page document setting out its perspective on the climate emergency and human rights, the court says states have legal obligations to protect people alive today and future generations from the impacts of climate breakdown. That includes taking “urgent and effective” actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions based on the best available science, to adapt, to cooperate internationally, and to guard against the threat of climate disinformation.
The IACHR’s founding purpose is to interpret and apply the American convention on human rights, a treaty ratified by members of the Organization of American States (OAS). But its newly published opinion takes into account a broad range of national, regional and international laws and principles. And it affirms that the findings not just apply only to signatories of the convention but to all 35 members of the OAS, which includes the US and Canada.
So who funds these unaccountable Judges?
This human rights court is a part of the Organization of American States or OAS — it’s a kind of American continent mini-UN. There are 35 states signed up to it, whatever that means, but traditionally the US pays 60% of the regular funds (stop me if you’ve heard this before). Lately, other extra funding is volunteered from a Who’s Who of Globalist Blob entities like the UN, EU, World Bank and George Soros’s Open Society. Every part of the Blob loves every other part…
Presumably Donald Trump is busy with other things, but he has called for a review of the $60 odd million in funding the US government sends towards this rusted on Blobocracy which was created in 1948. This is $60 million in “free” fundraising money for the One World Government Blob. Let’s just say “No”.
If the climate really faces a crisis, more than anything else, we have the right to real science with real debate; not petty namecalling like “climate denier”, or censorious laws about “climate disinformation”.
Citizens have a right to be protected from The Blob.

No amount of study will change their minds. Why? Ask Upton Sinclair.

” Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACHR) has decided that humans have the “right” to a stable climate and thus, you have the right to pay for it.”
Having presented the science absurdity of man made CO2 driven Global Warming and argued with some real crazies on Quora, I am now of the opinion that no one believes it. It is a chink in the armour of democracies, the existential threat. This was what Al Gore wanted, a path to power, a fear he could exploit when he first ran for President in 1988.
His partner in this crime of mass deceit is the enormous pointless money and power hungry UN. Plus every would be communist, fascist and dictator and out of work politician in the world. So people now fight for ‘rights’ when in fact they are asking for oppression of everybody else by the State. Only the state can fix their rights, by taking away the rights of others.
The modern idea of what a government should do is appalling. What people really want is freedom. Freedom from the state. Health, life, family, relationships, work used to be independent of the state. Now vast numbers work in the State system or are dependent on the state. Their idea of freedom is only enabled by more laws, more taxes, less freedom.
Climate has nothing to do with it. Billions live in warm near equatorial places than cold. And as long as you are close to water, the weather is almost never extreme. Tiny Indonesia with 250 million people is testament to that with near perfect weather and not a windmill in sight. The people who fear warming most are those who live in places where it snows in winter.

It is hard to believe, but believe we must, that the communists are winning so easily, using our freedom laws and our own finances to do so. What is harder to believe is the complicity of the so called defenders of democracy, conservatives that spend their time arguing over scraps while the communist wolves devour the flock.

Another, great post that exposes more of the corrupt, unreal world we are trying to survive in.
The eighty-twenty rule at work:
Immediately post World War 2 the situation was so raw and obvious that only 20% of stuff we were fed was false; the other 80% was real because people could detect the real.
Now, at least, 80% is misdirection and lies.
Reality must be returned, we don’t have long before it’s finished completely and absolutely.

“Citizens have a right to be protected from The Blob.”
Jo, who or what will provide that protection?
Citizens are being left to fend for themselves.
Progressive Western governments generally consider non-citizens and criminals as victims of citizens.
Why?
Because the modern managerial elite believe national identity, or citizenship, to be the progenitor of bigotry.

All these scary stories about an allegedly changing environment and the supposed “right” to an unchanging climate relate to the warmist/Leftist belief that the natural earth system is static and unchanging, despite this obviously being untrue according to the evidence of our eyes.
The idea that the earth and universe is static is a very primitive one and articulated by Aristotle in “In the Heavens” 350BCE.
Part of the problem is that warmists and the dumbed-down “education” system and faux-scientists don’t understand, or worse, are unaware, of Milankovitch Cycles or the Sun as a variable star or any other number of drivers of natural changes.
They are shocked and terrified of any imagined or actual change in the natural environment.
And even if the earth was warming, that would be a good thing as was shown in the Minoan, Egyptian, Roman and Medieval warm periods when Civilisation thrived, because Civilisation loves warmth.

The UN data proves we Humans today live in the safest period in our history and even the UN tells the truth and supports these claims.
Also the UN tells us we will be much wealthier and healthier by 2100, even if temps are higher by that date.
Again the poor African population was 227 million in 1950 and today is over 1500 million and their life expectancy has increased from 36 years then to 64 years today.
This is the most rapid change in Human history and proves we now live in the safest period in 300 K years.
We can easily look up the UN data in a few minutes for ourselves.

I hate it when people remove the X axis. It looks like the average life expectancy in 1950 was 5 years. Non science people do the same for Temperature and CO2. And the NOAA disaster department of non scientists who believe in blowing up graphs for ’emphasis’.
120
TdeF the graphs are active and 1950 is 36 yrs and 2025 is 64.64 yrs. But I still agree with you about the graphs appearance.
60
Yes, you can move the cursor and get values. Great.
However there is only one value on the Y axis. You have no idea where the X axis is. Yes, you can work it out but as a snapshot of data, it is useless and deceptive. I see far too much of this decorative approach to data.

And the oceans are boiling – per the well-fed UN appartatchik of leftist history. So we’re ALL going to die.

I suspect that most of these advocates could not explain the meaning of ‘climate’, a 30 year average of weather.
As for a ‘stable climate’ (or weather in their world), how does one measure this to ensure the IACHR’s determination is being upheld?
On a daily basis, my climate/weather is definitely not stable going from day to night, hotter to colder, windy and calm.
Annually we get 4 seasons, all different from each other and therefore, not stable.
Historically, the further back one looks, the concept of ‘stable’ would need to be removed from our lexicon as there has been ice ages, warm periods, cataclysmic earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, meteor strikes, continental movements, etc, etc.

Here’s a better Lomborg article for anyone trying to understand the lunacy of their net ZERO nonsense.
Lomborg uses Dr Nordhaus and Dr Richard Tol’s work to show us how much better off people will be in 2100.
https://financialpost.com/opinion/bjorn-lomborg-climate-spending-costs-more-than-climate-change
110
Lomborg’s 2025 Financial Post’s article has this to say about future wealth and health…….
“The studies suggest that a temperature increase of 3°C by the end of the century — which is slightly pessimistic, based on current trends — will have a global cost equivalent to between 1.9 and 3.1 per cent of global GDP. To put this into context, the United Nations estimates that by the end of the century, the average person will be 450 per cent as rich as he or she is today. But because of climate change, he or she will feel “only” 435-440 per cent as rich as today”.
“Why is this so different from the impression we have been given in the media? Alarmist campaigners and credulous journalists fail to account for the simple fact that people are remarkably adaptable and tackle most climate problems at low cost. Take food: Climate campaigners warn we’ll starve, but research shows that instead of a 51-per cent increase in food availability by 2100 if there were no climate change, we are on track for “only” a 49-per cent increase. Or weather disasters: they killed half a million people annually in the 1920s, whereas the past decade saw fewer than 9,000 fatalities a year. The 97.5-per cent reduction in mortality is because people are more resilient when they’re richer and can access better technology”.
“Extremist climate campaigners and far-left politicians reveal their true colours when they push for “de-growth” to cut emissions. Making people worse off and reversing gains against extreme poverty would be a tragic mistake, making it harder to address all our other problems. Moreover, it is laughable to think the West’s strategic adversaries, such as Vladimir Putin, will embrace a similar approach”.

show us how much better off people will be in 2100.
I truly expect that few of those commenting here now will be better off in 2100.

I ask ChatGPT “Which people used human sacrifice as an attempt to control the weather?”
Answers include (1) The Aztecs believed that human sacrifices were necessary to appease the gods and maintain natural balanced weather. Tlaloc, the rain god, was often appeased through child sacrifice. Their tears were thought to bring rain. (2) The Maya performed human sacrifices to please gods who controlled rain. To please Chaac, the rain god. Human hearts were offered, and sacrificial victims were thrown into sacred natural sinkholes. (3) Today, people are sacrificed to ‘Save the Planet’ using abortions, vaccines and drugs to assist the death of the unwanted. The human right to a stable temperature means that states have a duty to stop the variations of temperature due to altitude, day and night, winter and summer and high and low air pressure. Without government control, temperature variations can exceed ten degrees in one day, one degree in one hundred years, 63 degrees between the poles and the equator and 65 degrees between the surface and six miles. Only personal sacrifice can solve these variations in temperature.
190
I asked Grok the same question:
50
We can scoff at the primitive methods employed by the Aztecs and Mayans to appease the weather gods. We Australians are more civilised and evolved. We only offer energy security, affordable power and economic prosperity as sacrifices in a bid to receive favourable weather.
Whilst both old and new sacrifices are equally ineffective, we modern folk can smugly occupy the moral high ground and roll our eyes when talking about ancient superstitions that caused barbaric practices. We may call them crazy Mexicans but unfortunately we are equally loco.

Oh the hubris….

It’s amazing. In Victoria they are introducing the Voice to Parliament. And reckon it will cost us $20Billion a year. When you consider that in a national referendum no state voted for it, they claim a mandate. To be fair, Canberra, our Washington, reckons it’s a half a state, being 100% public servants who cannot get enough of our money, and that they would like their zero aborigines to have a say. But then they could all claim to be aborigines and no one would care. Half of Tasmania did.
My point is that no one is justifying the massive carbon dioxide taxes, not even taxes. ‘Off budget’. Carbon certificates. Rivers of money overseas. And once again they say they have a ‘mandate’ although it was not an election promise and the whole country is against it, except Canberra of course.
So another international make believe organization demands we spend more on achieving nothing. I don’t think anyone cares that they have no authority, no mandate, no right.
As Adam Bandt said, tell them what they want to hear and when we get power, we do what we like. Except in America, that seems to be what is happening across the world as our Prime Minister has his fourth meeting with President Xi of China and zero with the President of the United States.
While there are some poor indoctrinated sods who believe man made deadly rapid Global Warming, I do not believe for a second the anyone on the “Inter-American Court of Human Rightrs” believes a word of it. It’s always about money and power. Like the Australian aborigines who currently are gifted 53% of all the land and $42Billion a year in cash and still live desperate short lives in the dirt, no better off. For those few in the outback, this works out to $1Million cash per person per year. Where’s all the money going?
Climate equity is one of those mysterious things where no matter how much money disappears, nothing changes. Certainly not the slow linear increase in CO2. And no one cares and no one has even proven a connection between CO2 emissions and total CO2?
130
And with these arbitrary international courts and their rulings, there is no court of Appeal, no set of rules, no constitution. That alone makes them manifestly unfair and thus invalid, arbitrary dictatorships. Who is paying these people? George Soros? The WFE and Klaus Schwab? President Xi? Or a relic of the billions missing under Joe AutoPen.

Every comment on the actions or words of the climate terrorists should begin with a reference to the admission by Ottmar Edenhofer that the IPCC has always been about the redistribution of wealth.

No surprise this quango has surfaced with Soros funded propaganda trashmedia support. The double down was always going to come after the shellshock of Trump’s blitz on removal of much of the Ole Dementia Joe puppet show embedded bureaucratic landmines.
They tried the lawfare to save some programs, but have been rudderless as Seotoro has retreated temporarily from DC to Hawaii to recharge for the midterm blitz to undermine Admin 47.
He emerged the other day for a paid sermon in Connecticut, where he sanctimoniously – does he know any other way – extolled the need for control of disinformation in discourse of all things political……including climate, but must have governmental control!
No surprise he’d be the mouthpiece to start the double down as he’s been the political operative of the Soros Foundation after being ‘plucked from obscurity for a meteoric rise to the historic win as 1st first President’.
A massive marketing ploy complete, as his Cloward Piven, Columbia Hate U marxist credentials were always the driver for Soros/ WEF aspirations to destroy the capitalist democracatic society and the race card chaos, the call for useful idiots to hide the true Marxist agenda where these hypocrites fund their ideology thru climate taxpayer subsidies grifts and funnel it to ngos and quangos!
So Obama sets the new phase of the same old ploy with a call for governmental controls of disinformation to ensure their narrative is the only allowable in sovereign nations now under Marxist control, like the UK, Canada, Australia and dozens of EU countries, setting up for cherry picked ‘atrocities’ to get activists in the media ensuring a single narrative, while smugly claiming to be ‘the hope guy’.
https://barackobama.medium.com/conversation-at-the-connecticut-forum-e5e168e08ba8
Of course the questions critical thinkers ask is; why do you hope? Why do you still believe that people of color have never had it worse? After 8 years of your historic presidency and a further 8 of ‘taking meeting in my sweats’ at your DC McMansion with Democrat politicians and government department heads and appointed Secretaries, surely the plight always at the front of your mind should have improved exponentially, shouldn’t it?
That is, if you hadn’t been primarily focused on the reason for your meteoric rise; Marxist utopian globalist agenda with climate change as its wedge and cash cow!
