The GreenGate Scandal: Uncovering the Truth Behind Environmental Funding
According to some pro-government representatives, the “Greengate,” which refers to the European Commission’s funding of environmental groups to persuade Members of the European Parliament to approve policies under the Green Deal, is considered a scandal. They claim that EU leaders have paid to promote climate alarmism.
These campaigns have been labeled as “fake news,” as environmentalists bombard European parliamentarians on behalf of Frans Timmermans, the Commissioner for Climate. While some environmentalists may exaggerate the impact of anthropogenic actions on climate, biodiversity, and pollution, the reality of climate change and environmental degradation cannot be denied. The complexities of determining human responsibilities and finding solutions to prevent a collapse that would devastate life on Earth are difficult to navigate.
Towards Extinction
The underlying ideology of many environmentalists and most ecological parties is fanatical and fundamentally anti-humanistic. Their perspective implies that human progress has led to environmental destruction, and they advocate for radical solutions that could lead to catastrophic outcomes.
Despite the validity of some scientific claims made by environmentalists, their approach starts from a flawed premise, offering solutions that could potentially lead to the extinction of a significant portion of humanity.
The Hypocrisy of Greengate
The Greengate scandal highlights the arrogance of the Brussels technocracy and represents an attack on democracy. It showcases the shift towards an oligarchic system where experts dictate policies without considering the will of the people. This trend undermines the democratic process and favors a technocratic rule over political representation.
The Rule of Experts
The Greengate scandal underscores the belief that politics should be reserved for the competent, dismissing the elected representatives as incompetent and biased. This shift towards technocracy marginalizes public participation in decision-making processes and reinforces the dominance of expert-driven policies.
US and EU Technocracy
The rise of technocracy in both the US and the EU signals a shift towards expert rule and away from democratic principles. It is crucial to address the undemocratic practices of the European Commission and challenge the pervasive influence of technocrats in decision-making processes.
Instead of targeting environmentalists, whose influence is waning in European politics, a critical examination of the EU’s technocratic governance is necessary. The focus should be on holding the European Commission accountable for its anti-democratic practices and challenging the manipulation of power by technocrats. It’s time to address the pervasive technocratic control in the EU and ensure democratic principles are upheld.
