That is the gist of a book penned by one of the lead scientists of the IPCC.
"Professor David Shearman, MD, is Emeritus Professor of Medicine, University of Adelaide, and a Visiting Research Fellow at the Universitys Department of Geography and Environmental Sciences and Law School. Professor Shearman was an Assessor for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Third Assessment Report and the Fourth Assessment Report."
The book is called and is co-authored by a gentleman named Joseph Wayne Smith.
"The Climate Change Challenge and the Failure of Democracy" and in the preface they ask a simple question....
"If so, are you prepared to change your lifestyle now? Are you prepared to see society and its governance change if this is a necessary solution?"
Further on they argue that democratic government is "unnatural" for mankind and that authoritarianism is "the natural state" for humanity. To defend the "environment of the Earth" they propose creating a 'elite warrior leadership to battle for the future of the earth.
Chapter 9 of the book details how this "Warrior Elite" would be trained from childhood (much like the Spartans were) and then passed on to special universities to further their training. Then on page 134 we find
"Government in the future will be based upon . . . a supreme office of the biosphere. The office will comprise specially trained philosopher/ecologists. These guardians will either rule themselves or advise an authoritarian government of policies based on their ecological training and philosophical sensitivities. These guardians will be specially trained for the task."
Is this really where the world is heading? Every time I read this last passage I keep thinking of the Einsatzgruppen of Himmler and Heydrich.
