The end of the world
is experienced as a transition to
something new, vaster, and is felt as a terrible
annihilation. At first everything seems queer, uncanny, and
significant. Catastrophe is impending; the deluge is here.
A unique catastrophe approaches. Something comes over the
world; the last Judgment, the breaking of the seven seals of
the Book of Revelation. God comes into the world. Time
wheels back. The last riddle of all is being solved.-- from Dr. Karl Jaspers's General Psychopathology Disclosure: Military and Government Witnesses Reveal the Greatest Secrets in Modern History by Steven M. Greer COSMIC DECEPTION: LET THE CITIZEN BEWARE
Steven M. Greer MD Imagine this: It is the summer of 2001, and someone presents you with a script for a movie or book that tells how a diabolical terrorist plot unfolds wherein both 110 story World Trade Center towers and part of the Pentagon are destroyed by commercial jets hijacked and flown into those structures. Of course you would laugh, and if you were a movie mogul or book editor, reject it out of hand as ridiculous and implausible, even for a fictional novel or movie. After all, how could a commercial jet, being tracked on radar after two jets had already hit the World Trade towers, make it through our air defenses, into the most sensitive airspace in the world, and in broad daylight on a crystal clear day, slam into the Pentagon! And this in a country that spends over $ 1 billion a day to defend itself! Absurd, illogical - nobody would swallow it! Unfortunately, there are some of us who have seen these scripts - and of far worse things to come - and we are not laughing. Since 1987 only one site has been under study as the final, permanent burial site for the nation's high-level nuclear waste. This material contains more than 95% of the radioactivity (not volume) in the dregs of the Nuclear Age. The vast majority of this material is from energy production at commercial nuclear power reactors. The repository program also includes high-level wastes from nuclear weapons production and the nuclear navy. Today there is no known solution for isolating this material for as long as it is hazardous - more than 250,000 years -- except for one year at a time. It's Gonna Leak --- so they change the rules!
While explaining the science behind global warming in a manner easily accessible to the nonspecialist, Leggett originally a petroleum geologist, then a Greenpeace director and now a solar energy entrepreneur takes us on a whirlwind eight-year personal journey through the world's climate negotiations. From the first major meeting of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 1990 through the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 to the historic Kyoto Climate Summit in 1997, Leggett provides an insider's perspective on the negotiations and many of the key players. As compelling as a good thriller, the book deftly describes the machinations of what Leggett calls "the carbon club" or "the foot soldiers for the fossil-fuel industries." Working behind the scenes, these lobbyists have been successful in stalling and diluting every agreement reached to date. All the while, as Leggett explains, the world warms and climatic disasters increase. Most readers will find it impossible to doubt the reality of global warming and its likely consequences after reading Leggett's account of the past decade. The book's only fault is that since its warmly received publication two years ago in Great Britain, nothing more than a short epilogue written in February 2000 has been added to update readers. --This text refers to the Library Binding edition.
