The unseen forces that were at work in the sixties have never been opposed and have been retarding an effective media and citizen response to the facts about climate change. http://www.globalresearch.ca/50-years-of...dy/5329847
Part II: The whole Keystone debate has less to do with jobs, investigative reporting, or an informed public, than it has to do with narrow industry profits, election campaign chests, and industry-backed media fog. As this original April, 2013 essay shows, an enormous gulf exists historically between scientific consensus on climate change and public awareness, with the media having for years been influenced by Big Oil to give equal time to believers and deniers.

Welcome to the Forum. I, as an Environmental Scientist as well as Environmental Activist and Deep Political researcher on the many [all too many] covert ops, wars based on nothing but profit/greed/Thanatos, multitude of assassinations, and the Big Lies about all of the above (and more) appreciate your post and the referenced links. I left my job working for a State governor as an Environmental Aide when I realized the very companies/forces/entities/persons that were blocking progress on the Environmental 'fronts' were, or had been, involved in the covert ops, wars, assassinations, Big Lies, etc. - and that one first had to expose that more obvious evil before the Environment could be tackled - or so my thinking went. Now we face the situation where forward motion on both are frozen in the Big Lie Ice Block by this crowd. Global Warming should soon melt that 'Ice Block'...but the question is will it be too late? People are slowly [all too slowly!] awakening to the Lies and deceit/treachery of their own government and its main actors...but again the question is will it be too late? We are, IMHO, poised on the abyss, having run like lemmings to the edge of the economic/democratic/Constitutional/environmental/ethical/moral cliff.....with the Oligarchy pushing from behind as well as tempting forward with propaganda from above the abyss. I think we are at the last moment in history when a change can be effected, before it is 'too late'...but that window is very small. Now is the time for all of us to put our shoulders to the wheel.
I much like the work/writings/thoughts/speeches of Derrick Jensen - radical to some; just plain sanity to me.....it is not just Capitalism and the Oligarchy that promotes it that are the problem - but 'civilization' itself...however, dismantling 'civilization' doesn't mean any harm to humans - other than the few King leeches, Major puppeteers and their praetorian guards. The Environmental is Deep Political, and the Deep Political Environmental.
