MANKIND’S BIGGEST GAMBLE IS ON…SO IS THE PROTEST!
No one is asking your permission, but the mainstream media is telling you…GEOENGINEERING WILL RAIN DOWN ON YOU IN 2010. International geogneingeering scientists are meeting in San Diego, where outraged Citizens have drawn a line in the sand.

MAINSTREAM NEWS STATEMENTS IN THE LAST 5 MONTHS…

NBC Nightly News (Brian Williams) “Geoengineering could end up being a “last resort.”

CBS News “Using technology to purposely cool the climate is called geoengineering. One option raised by Obama’s Science Advisor John Holdren and proposed by a Nobel Prize-winning scientist includes shooting pollution particles into the atmosphere to reflect the sun’s rays.”

Ruetgers “SRM (ie: global stratospheric aerosol / chemical spraying-ed) would need to be continued for hundreds of years”

Financial Times “geoengineering shouldn’t be seen as an easy way out, and we don’t know enough about it”
” …(Safety) aerosals fare poorly on that measure, as does ocean fertilisation – the effects of changing the marine ecosystem are too risky.”

MSNBC “…. are we willing to live with the downsides? ….. creating more droughts, more ozone holes and.. a thin cloud layer that obscures blue skies and gives astronomers fits.” “We have not calculated how hazy yet, but it would be global,” lead study author Alan Robock told msnbc.com

The Register (UK) “Top British climate boffins have said that the only practical hope for arresting global warming is the use of ‘geoengineering’ – techniques intended to reduce the effects of CO2 emissions, as opposed to reducing the CO2 emissions themselves.”

Global Research “Intervention in atmospheric and climatic matters ….will unfold on a scale difficult to imagine at present… this will merge each nation’s affairs with those of every other, more thoroughly than the threat of a nuclear or any other war would have done.”

The reason for big-media’s newfound interest in GE is clear. World governments, led by the United States, have agreed to begin full-scale experimentation. It is imperative that this plan becomes visible to everyone in every nation. The enormous risk and uncertainty, expressed by many of the GE scientists themselves, sounds THE alarm in all who are paying attention. Activists, labor, students…everyone, should feel a call to stand up during this moment in history. It is time to take decisive action:

Geo-Engineering scientists from all over the world will be meeting in San Diego, at the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) annual meeting from February 18-22, 2010. One presentation entitled “Can Geoengineering Save Us from Global Warming?” will be taking place on Saturday February 20th from 8:30am until 11:30 am in room 6F at the San Diego Convention Center.

There will be a protest and press conference on Saturday, February 20th starting at 8:00 AM on the closest public property to the San Diego Convention Center , within feet of the AAAS meeting. Vital protest information is posted at geoengineeringwatch.org. Continuing Geo-Engineering news will be on our site as well.
