GLOBE was incorporated in 2006, the founding directors all being British legislators [...]
"To provide a forum for ideas and proposals to be floated in confidence and without the attention of an international spotlight".
And out of reach of FOI requests.
Globe Director, Lord Oxburgh has been appointed to lead the inquiry into the scientific aspects of Climategate scandal.
GLOBE Director Lord Julian Hunt is "a climate modeller, former head of the Met Office, and an Honorary Graduate and Honorary Doctor of Science, University of East Anglia."
The Directors acknowledge the support of International Organisations, Governments, Parliamentary Bodies and Industry, both financially and politically, with paticular acknowledgement to United Nations, The Global Environment Facility, The World Bank, European Commission, the Governments of Canada and Great Britain, the Senate of Brazil and Globe Japan.
Your tax dollars at work? (There you go, war rooms.)
Interesting stuff. But read the whole thing, including the comments.
Cash? Not Johnny Cash?
Whose cash? Who is cashing in on your/our cash?
Our Enemy, The State + Goreacle + Suzuki + CBC/MSM, + UNabomber Mao Stlong, et al.

"How government cash created the Climategate scandal"
"Andrew Bolt
Sydney Herald Sun
March 23, 2010
Australian climate scientist policy analyst Sonja Boehmer-Christiansen tells the British parliamentary inquiry into Climategate just how much global warming science is corrupted by politics and money. Excerpts:
I was peer reviewer for IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change)… Since 1998 I have been the editor of the journal, Energy & Environment (E&E) published by Multi-science, where I published my first papers on the IPCC. I interpreted the IPCC “consensus” as politically created in order to support energy technology and scientific agendas that in essence pre-existed the “warming-as -man-made catastrophe alarm.”…
3.2 Scientific research as advocacy for an agenda (a coalition of interests, not a conspiracy,) was presented to the public and governments as protection of the planet… CRU, working for the UK government and hence the IPCC, was expected to support the hypothesis of man-made, dangerous warming caused by carbon dioxide, a hypothesis it had helped to formulate in the late 1980s…
3.3 … In persuading policy makers and the public of this danger, the “hockey stick” became a major tool of persuasion, giving CRU a major role in the policy process at the national, EU and international level. This led to the growing politicisation of science in the interest, allegedly, of protecting the “the environment” and the planet. I observed and documented this phenomenon as the UK Government, European Commission, and World Bank increasingly needed the climate threat to justify their anti-carbon (and pro-nuclear) policies. In return climate science was generously funded and required to support rather than to question these policy objectives… Opponents were gradually starved of research opportunities or persuaded into silence. The apparent “scientific consensus” thus generated became a major tool of public persuasion…
4.1 … As editor of a journal which remained open to scientists who challenged the orthodoxy, I became the target of a number of CRU manoeuvres. The hacked emails revealed attempts to manipulate peer review to E&E’s disadvantage, and showed that libel threats were considered against its editorial team…
4.4 Most recently CRU alleged that I had interfered “maliciously” with their busy grant-related schedules, by sending an email to the UKCIP (Climate Impact Programme) advising caution in the use of CRU data for regional planning purposes. This was clearly reported to [CRU head Phil] Jones who contacted my Head of Department, suggesting that he needed to reconsider the association of E&E with Hull University. Professor Graham Haughton, while expressing his own disagreement with my views, nevertheless upheld the principle of academic freedom…
4.5 The emails I have read are evidence of a close and protective collaboration between CRU, the Hadley Centre, and several US research bodies such as the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory where former CRU students had found employment. Together they formed an important group inside IPCC Working Group 1, the science group…
The CRU case is not unique. Recent exposures have taken the lid off similar issues in the USA, the Netherlands, Australia, and possibly in Germany and Canada…"

GLOBE"S unstated mission is to provide a bullpen of compliant gray men the globalist oligarchy can install in bureaucracies to rubber stamp neo feudalist green austerity economics. They will drive the regulatory regimes needed to escrow all future productivity of the western middle class to their globalist finance oligarchs.
Record the names involved with GLOBE and watch for these names to end up in international development (property/resource) regulatory regimes.
Looks like Canada has been on board for quite a few years. Scary detail: the President of GLOBE Canada is Liberal MP Bryon Wilfert. He is the Canadian rep on the Board of Directors. Just when we thought we could not be surprised any more...
Climategate will be,[and is] a useless topic if Iceland's Katla Volcano Blows.

The potential eruption of Iceland's volcano Katla would likely send the world, including the USA, into an extended deep freeze.

"To the point, the Mississippi River froze just north of New Orleans and the East Coast, especially New England, had an extremely cold winter."
"Scientists say history has proven that whenever the Eyjafjallajokull volcano erupts, Katla always follows -- the only question is how soon."
AP..contributed to this story. Liberal fear mongering? Never worry... wasted energy!
So Liberal MP Bryon Wilfert is President of GLOBE Canada. Who would have thought. This explains a lot.
AGW Fraud is real BIG MONEY.
Notice the hiding of the words, "global warming/climate change", with these words:
>>> "the company has engaged in various activities to reduce environmental damage caused by its activities."
Ask Suzuki.

"Desjardins Group partners with David Suzuki Foundation
Agreement includes financial support for sustainable development activities
Desjardins Group has announced a new partnership with the David Suzuki Foundation to raise public awareness of sustainable development.
The agreement, which is part of Desjardins Group’s sustainable development policy, involves financial support for various activities. It includes support for the launch of the French version of Doing Business in a New Climate -- a how-to guide developed by the David Suzuki Foundation, which aims to help businesses in their efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The guide is now available, free of charge, on the websites of both Desjardins and the Foundation.
Other partnership projects will be developed to complement to Desjardins Group’s existing actions in the field of sustainable development. Already a partner in The Climate Project Canada through its subsidiary Desjardins General Insurance Group, the company has engaged in various activities to reduce environmental damage caused by its activities.
Pauline D’Amboise, secretary general and vice-president of cooperative support at Desjardins Group, said the new partnership with the David Suzuki Foundation confirms Desjardins’ commitment to continue advancing in the field of sustainable development."

On a related note ....
In what might me the next effort to daemonize our industrial society and find something scary to frighten little children the CBC's "The Nature of Things" today spent an hour informing us that the oceans are soon to be devoid of life due to CO2 in the atmosphere.
Citing past geologic cycles of massive vulcanism as proof that high levels of CO2 destroy ocean life and claiming that our current levels of CO2 are ten times what they have ever been.
TNoT proclaims inevitable doom.
Your tax dollars at work...

This group sounds like a growing tapeworm in the gut of Western civilization. If we do not cut off the public funding to this creature, it will continue to drain our economies and strangle growth.

Al Gore and David Suzuki lie about co2. It is 600% less effect then claimed.

Alarmist bedwetters indeed!
Worry? Pointless and idiotic..
If volcano Katla in Iceland blows again, the airborne ash cover will cool the earth by 4.5 degrees C.
Fantasy? Not really. That's exactly what happened last time it blew.
There are other Volcanoes with similar capacity.
We humans can't agree on anything, but if we could, our efforts would be as an ant pushing an elephant... useless.
