Censor the Internet to Save the Planet: Environmentalist Groups Warn Free Speech is a Threat to the Earth

Censor the Internet to Save the Planet:
Environmentalist groups warn free speech is a threat to the Earth
“Governments Should Act Now to Curb Climate Disinformation” demands a letter backed by Greenpeace, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and the Center for Countering Digital Hate, which has close ties to the British government, along with over 50 other organizations.
The open letter calling for ending free speech to save the planet from global warming accuses social media, broadcast and publishing companies of being “enablers to planetary destruction” for allowing dissenting views and demands that governments step in and crack down.
The groups call on “governments worldwide to take immediate and decisive action” and urge that “those responsible must be held accountable.” Or free speech will destroy the planet.
Signatories to the censorship call also include the Union of Concerned Scientists, which would like to ban scientific debate, Avaaz, the radical Kairos Fellowship and Reporters Without Borders which started out protecting freedom of information, but now suppresses it.
While green censorship is not a new phenomenon, the open letter includes the Climate Action Against Disinformation (CAAD) coalition demands that governments and companies adopt its “universal definition” of climate disinformation and misinformation as encompassing not only those who reject the idea that the world is getting hotter because of human activity, but everyone who dissents from the details of the UN IPCC ‘consensus’ and its policies.
Either you’re 100% in agreement with the green movement or you’re a threat to the planet.
The proposed green censorship policy would ban any alternative interpretations of climate figures which is vital to scientific discourse. It would also outlaw any criticism of green policies.
CAAD links to a site that defines ‘climate delay’ as ‘climate denial’ (and therefore ‘climate disinformation’) and so any global warming proposal that falls short of the radical leftist ‘consensus’ agenda is really a form of misinformation that must be censored to save the planet.
Even proposals “put forward in good faith” that “contain partial truths” are “dangerous!” and must be stopped. Ideas such as “individualism” and “technological optimism” must be suppressed or the planet will be destroyed. Warnings about the pollution levels in China, the loss of jobs or higher fuel prices may not be allowed to “pollute” the discourse any longer..
The new green censorship push isn’t just about silencing broader dissent, but any dissent.
Scientists like Bjorn Lomborg who accept global warming, but disagree about the scope of it and the best remedies, are a target, so are elected officials, writers and activists who disagree with making unilateral cuts while giving China a pass, and those who warn about the impact of green taxes and price hikes on the public. What began as a proposal to censor those who question global warming has become a demand to censor anyone who asks any questions at all.
While some might question the impact of the green censorship push, Google has already bowed to initial demands from the Conscious Advertising Network and began demonetizing videos. --->READ MORE HERE
