The Great Reset

[divs4ever]

Part of the WEF's plan to prevent the World from exploding is to urge us to bathe only once a week.

You know it makes sense.

that didn't help England when i was there ( in 1990 )

maybe they should restrict hair washing/dying to once a month , that might work better

once a week made a lot of sense until modern pharmaceuticals devastated immune systems

French women have been capturing carbon for eons...

"In modern discoveries, hair is composed of keratin and contains other elements and molecules that contribute to the appearance and behavior of hair. The main chemical elements present in the hair are composed of carbon (45%), oxygen (28%), nitrogen (15%), hydrogen (6.7%), and sulfur (5.3%)."

NMHT - not much hair tax

I know I am talking to the converted an yes this Guy is not a Dr per se, but he is eminently qualified to talk on these matters.

nobody still seems to have bumped into the elephant in that trial data ..

look at the 'adverse events' in the 'placebo' group , all that for a dilute sugar/saline solution ?

( hint the 'placebo ' was an 'alternate vaccine' )

( i spotted that the first day that PRESS release was announced ... so where is the full trail data ?)

that was a BAD sign it looked very much like a stock pump to me

i still capture some but mostly below the ears

Well that would keep everyone at arms length with my job... A weeks worth of burnt hoof, anearobic bacterial decomposition of horseshtt and keratin protein, acrylic glue and infected cuts.

My Grandfather was a keen and good horseman in his earlier years eith trophies as a Gentlman Rider, his transport was a Horse and Gig in his later years, my Grand Mother aswell. It would appear when the lights go out your talents will be in greater demand than ever.

Unfortunately I missed out on the generation that rode a horse to School but we may all need that school horse paddock, and a house cow.

Woow I just hope there is a youtube tutorial .

Thats if the internet's still up

You know 3 years ago I would have thought someone who said these things deserved a padded cell.

Thanks for sharing the WEF paper on fast forwarding to the circular economy. Very thoughtful and necessary ideas.
I'm definitely awake Wayne. You keep making it abundantly clear that the sources you quote have no credibility and are not worth the pixels they are viewed on. Wittgenstein would be turning in his grave if he saw the way his name is used by this logic butcher.

Nonetheless it is worthwhile going to the original documents and considering their perspective.

What's the World Economic Forum doing to accelerate action on Circular Economy?

• Shifting from fossil fuels to renewables requires huge amounts of critical metals.
• Recycling alone won't be enough to sustain the amount of materials needed
• We need to increase sharing, reuse and a preference for longevity to reduce demand.

We need a clean energy revolution, and we need it now. But this transition from fossil fuels to renewables will need large supplies of critical metals such as cobalt, lithium, nickel, to name a few. Shortages of these critical minerals could raise the costs of clean energy technologies.

One obvious route is to mine more virgin material, but this comes with its own costs and potentially unintended consequences. Another solution commonly discussed is to recycle more and use the metals already in circulation. The complication is that we do not currently have enough metals in circulation, and even with recycling taken into consideration, mineral production is still forecasted to increase by nearly 500%. So how should we proceed?

A fully circular economy is much more than recycling; it is keeping materials at their highest value. It is time to look beyond circular materials. These three mindset changes can help reduce demand for critical metals.

On the circular economy system diagram by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, metals fall on the right-hand side of the diagram. This diagram shows a prioritization of approaches. The levers in the inner circles such as “maintain” and “remanufacturing” should be prioritized over those further outside, such as recycling. Source: Ellen McArthur Foundation.

1. Go from owning to using​

Be honest, you likely have at least one old mobile phone tucked in the bottom of a drawer. Possibly an unused hard drive taking up space too. You aren’t alone. The average car or van in England is driven just 4% of the time. While most already have a personal phone, 39% of workers globally have employer-provided laptops and mobile phones.

This is not at all resource efficient. More sharing can reduce ownership of idle equipment and thus material usage. Car sharing platforms such as Getaround and BlueSG have already seized that opportunity to offer vehicles where you pay per hour used.

To enable a broader transition from ownership to usership, the way we design things and systems need to change too. For example, car sharing is made possible by new keyless unlocking features. Similarly, user profiles that create a distinction for work and personal use on the same device is needed to reduce the number of devices per person. A design process that focuses on fulfilling the underlying need instead of designing for product purchasing is fundamental to this transition. This is the mindset needed to redesign cities to reduce private vehicles and other usages.

Which brings us straight back to the tweet in question.

Bas, we all know that you are a willing footsoldier for the wef and the great reset. Most charitable interpretation is that the wef presents itself as a world authoritarian technocracy, hence the way the above article is presented.

"You will own nothing and be happy" etc.

Thing is with some robust technical discussion we can see that there is no way on Gods green earth that it will be for the benefit of anyone but what a belief in themselves to be, ie the elite.

What is amusing is that you consider people such as yourself, a humble history teacher and useful idiot, included in that number.... Whereas you'll be lucky to be rendered to the level of serf.

I have great hopes for humanity, in the form of a great awakening.

 

[Smurf1976]

This is the mindset needed to redesign cities to reduce private vehicles and other usages.

This is where the WEF loses the plot.

Reducing private vehicles isn't itself an aim that anyone, apart perhaps from the WEF and its supporters, actually wants. If it was then we'd see a mass shift from cars to walking, bicycles and public transport but pretty clearly the vast majority of the public are rejecting that idea.

Same with housing. There's a portion that want an apartment and that's fine but overall but any real estate agent will tell you that if there's one thing buyers really want but can't achieve it's houses on full size blocks of land. There's a lot who end up with a half or third size block, or an apartment, who'd jump at a full size block if they could afford one.

What Joe Average citizen wants isn't a shoebox apartment and a bus ticket. Rather, it's to be able to afford a free standing house and car. That's the problem that needs addressing - affordable housing and vehicles, not trying to convince people to make do with less. In terms of resources etc well it's about avoiding waste, it's about recycling, it's about using what we've got but fundamentally we're not short on land, we're not short on blue metal and so on. There's no real, fundamental reason for scarcity that can't be overcome.

Nobody expects we're going to see Klaus Schwab living in a cheaply built apartment and standing outside in the rain waiting to catch a bus then catching Covid while they're on it, right?

I think we all know what this is about - it's about entrenching the divide between elites and the rest. Nothing more and nothing less.

Bearing in mind that obviously doesn't preclude doing things where they make sense. Some people do like living in an apartment. There's logic in not duplicating IT devices unnecessarily. Public transport does have a place albeit not to the point of replacing a car for most. There's a place for working from home. And so on. Things can be done sensibly which do bring benefits but ultimately no, urban densification of itself isn't a necessary objective overall and nor is getting rid of private cars.

Private aircraft, however, are something that generally does need to go for all sorts of reasons and thankfully that's an area where the WEF can directly assist, by directing its own attendees to not use them. I won't hold my breath....

 

[Smurf1976]

Going a step further, I see the "Great Reset" as counterproductive in terms of the very issues it purports to be trying to solve.

Only a fool wouldn't have at least some concerns about an irreversible experiment involving changing the composition of the earth's atmosphere. Detail aside, it's a reasonable expectation that something would happen as a result of doing so and common sense says it's rather unwise in the absence of understanding the full details of what, exactly, would occur.

Same with a lot of these issues. Species extinction is an obvious one as is the depletion of soil, contamination of the oceans and so on. One doesn't need to know the full detail to realise there's a lot of potential danger in all this and that it would be wise to bring it to a halt ASAP.

But if the champions of action are trying to make themselves king whilst everyone else becomes a slave under their rule, well that's a very good reason to be opposed to them and their plan.

Such is the problem with the whole debate about resources, sustainability and so on and it's various sub-topics such as energy, population, land use and so on. They start from a position of not unreasonable concern about something but become hijacked by those pushing a far more extreme position. That then results in an equally extreme position in the other direction and following that a step by step escalation on both sides. What starts out as an engineering or biological concern ends up changing the government and still not being resolved.

That reality gives us the American political situation and closer to home it gives us things like the now more than decade long but still unresolved debate over energy. Such issues are unresolvable when any attempt at rational, factual debate is rapidly hijacked and spirals to extreme positions.

There's a lot of this that's actually quite easy to resolve if you just get the technical experts in the same room. Technical as in the broad meaning - biologists, ecologists, engineers of various specialties and so on and start looking at things. Very often it's possible to come up with a pretty decent plan that does tick all the boxes well enough. Trouble is, once it gets out, once it enters political debate, then it's game over as the extreme polarised positions are formed and it's "Yes" versus "No".

End result is an ongoing war and the real problems continue to worsen by the day.

You have put your finger on it there @Smurf1976, and it the reason that experts, the people who we should be listening to don't want to enter the debate because they then become a political football. Just look at all the rubbish going on about covid and the pressure that those who should know about these things were put under. So maybe they are not always right as conditions are always changing, but they should be treated with respect and their advice taken unless there is solid evidence to the contrary, in which case the experts if they were worth their salt would change their opinions as well.

A vague set of proposals from an influential organisation has been transformed by online conspiracy theorists into a powerful viral rallying cry. What is the truth behind the "Great Reset"?

Believers spin dark tales about an authoritarian socialist world government run by powerful capitalists and politicians - a secret cabal that is broadcasting its plan around the world.

Despite all the contradictions in the last sentence, thousands online have latched on to this latest reimagining of an old conspiracy theory - updated for the age of Covid.

It is amazing when the the Left present anything, it is enlightening, when anyone else presents anything, it is a conspiracy.
What amazes me is how the gullible lap it up, when Trump was found with classified documents it was an outrage. When Biden is found with classified documents, it's a minor oversight on his part.
The public is certainly fickle and it is proving, that you can fool some of the people, all of the time IMO.

Surely, they can just use Zoom or Skype.

Wonder if they are embracing the sharing economy to reduce demand on critical materials as well by sharing their jets, and yachts, and limos, and using 5-year-old mobile phones?
