Decluttering is a lifelong Activity!

Cost of Living Crisis stems from Energy Costs; Thoughtful Solutions as the Year, 2023 advances.

With the advent of the new normal, after the pandemic, most folks work from home hence unusually increasing their energy usage and bills at home which, expectedly, creates a        knock-on effect on wallets, especially with the current high cost of energy brought about by the UN's Green New Deal policy.

It's super important that the Green New Deal is fair and sustainable across all gnerations, and continents... it must be made to work for All.

 Dealing with rising cost of living, higher household bills, and everyday cost requires attention as millions of households now face much higher bills because of the increase in energy price cap, while salaries, income remain static. Suggestions are making the rounds on how to make homes more energy efficient, ranging from double-glazing windows, insulating walls, draught-proofing to exclude unwanted gaps so as not to needlessly allow cold air into homes, including installation of LED bulbs, and to washing clothes at lower temps at nights. Also, renegotiating or switching energy suppliers are hints on ways to save money on energy.

Another suggestion is to save money on food bills by planning meals, effective food storage to cut down on food wastages, and setting a workable budget to make your money go far enough. 

Save money on your vehicle by adopting suggestions such as checking local filling station's prices online before going for fill-up, or taking advantage of loyalty-schemes; and measures to make your vehicle move more efficiently to make the fuel last longer, such as:

- keeping tyres rightly inflated because lower, or higher tyre pressure from the recommended amount, use up more fuel.

- if possible, avoid driving around with a load in the boot, or with a full tank of fuel, because this slows movement.

- accelerate gradually because the higher you press on the accelerator; the more fuel is consumed.

- change gears sooner if driving a manual vehicle, to avoid having to accelerate as much 

These pieces of advice above are helpful, but deviates from addressing the main crux of the matter, or on the root cause of the high energy prices unleashing the high cost of living crises, with its associated socio-economic maladies such as poverty, depression, conflicts, and crime in the Society. The crux of the matter is that the high cost of living crisis stems from the Green New Deal agenda which aimed at sourcing energy from renewables like Wind, and Solar farms which are costly & limited in energy output, rather than from cheap and high output fossil fuels, or nuclear power plants, or from a mix of all energy sources, which would effectively drive down the avaerage costs of energy.

The different forms of Energy which can be categorized either as potential or Kinetic energy, the fuel, and food substances are potential energies because when these chemical compounds are consumed, they unleash energy for movements, motion, work. Sadly, the costs of these substances, which are main sources of human movements and activities, have sky-rocketed beyond the reach of an average person, no thanks to the controversial new fad being pushed as the Green New Deal by the United Nations (UN), World Economic Forum (WEF), and World Health Organization (WHO), just to mention a few. The UN website refers to climate change as long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. According to the site, these shifts could be because of human activities, or natural occurrences such as through variations in the solar cycle, but since the 1800s, human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil, and gas, thereby emmiting greenhouse gases such as Carbon-dioxide and Methane that are causing climate change. In other words, using gasoline for driving cars, gas or coal for cooking, or heating buildings, including clearing of land and burning forests for farming purposes release carbon-dioxide. Also, Landfills garbage are major sources of methane emissions. Summarily, human activities in Vehicles, Energy Industries, Buildings, Agriculture, and land use are among the main emitters.

The UN has it that burning fossil fuels generates greenhouse gas emissions that act like a blanket wrapped around the Earth, trapping the Sun's heat, and raising temperatures. Such thinking, rightly or wrongly, views the Earth as an adiabatic system, a closed system that can neither gain, nor loose heat, or energy from/to outer planetary bodies, or space. Following one of Dalton's five Atomic Theories; In a closed system, energy can neither be created, nor destroyed, but rather can undergo transformation into other forms. This raises the question of whether the Earth is a closed system, hence the additional heat energy, plus the increased Carbon-dioxide emissions causing global warming should expectedly, naturally, with the myriads of activities of plants & animals, be transformed perhaps osmotically in a way as to maintain the required seasonal dynamic equilibrium and balance of the Earth’s energy and temperature.

Sadly, this Green New Deal has failed humanity on its Sustainability marker because it is impoverishing and driving over 220 million people deeper into penury, and ultimate extinction. Many are worried about the rising cost of living, including higher energy, and food prices, but, the global oligarchs do not care, and are still pushing hard on their skewed climate agenda that endangering humanity by making human flourishing more difficult to achieve. Energy, food, hence living costs have been on the increase leading to money worries, and stress. Really, this is anti-thetical to the UNSDGs which are geared towards alleviating poverty, promoting prosperity and human flourishing, and protecting the environment.

 

 

Interestingly, renowned Climatologists like Dr. John Christy of Alabama University, Prof. ... Mark Mills, Snr. fellow at Manhattan Institute of Prager University, among others have tried to posit alternative narrative based on available data that counters or refutes the looming climate change catastrophe narrative. But the UN is hobb-nobbing with self-acclaimed champions of Climate doom & gloom, De alarmists such a Greta Thungberg, with little to zero knowledge in environmental science, are not letting off, nor reconsidering their position, instead are still pushing for a stop to fossil fuel use. Come to think of it, the transition from Stone-age to the iron age didn't happen because humanity ran out of stones or did the advent of Ford warranted for all horses, donkeys, other means of transportation to be banned, or eliminated to make room for automobiles/vehicles, nor did the advent of Computers called for the banishment of all Type-writer machines. Surely, these changes occurred seamlessly following the principle of natural value selection on what is efficient, and beneficial to humanity. Certainly, there were no sanctions, nor obnoxious legislations as is the case today with the Green New Deal, which has giving rise to far-reaching obstructions to human flourishing, and agravating poverty across the world. 

It is heart-warming that the UN game plan on Climate Change has attracted lots of questions, and push backs from Climatologists, Environmental Scientists, experts, and concerned citizens.

Obviously, almost all socio-economic ills bedevilling the world at large are traceable to the evil agenda of WEF globalists. Events/programs such as the Covid-19 pandemic/vaccinations, the New Green Deal protocols are part of the game-plan to hamper human flourishing, & impoverish the hapless Masses, thereby weakening resistance to resetting the world into a modern day slave-trade network. Certainly, these select human-beings (extra-terresteric, quoting John Kerry) are best described as World Economic Fraudsters. Sadly, the world is just watching complacently as they brazenly plan, position, strategize, and hatch their anti-human, anti-Earth, and anti-God goals that would make our society hobbesian and more brutish. Recall Thomas Hobbes was an English philosopher (1588-1679) who posed a stark reality of what awaits a Society that wittingly, or unwittingly give obedience to an unaccountable sovereign ( a naturally egoistic person, or group such as WEF, empowered to decide every economic, social, and political issues) would engender a state of nature that is hobesian, which closely resembles spiraling civil unrest/war - a situation of universal insecurity, where everyone holds strong reason to fear for his/her, and loved ones' safety, well-being, violence, peril, and possibly death. So, it becomes rewarding to fake compliance, or cooperation with the prevailing oppresive system, as well as to pledge allegiance to authoritarianism, and tyranny just to curry favours, or protection from harm, or loss.
