#7 – Global Warming
Global warming is probably the most discussed topic over the last few years, researchers providing daily evidence about its harmful effects to the environment and to us, humans.
It has been proved that global warming is indeed happening, but the exaggerated discussions and propaganda around this topic has led many people to believe it is just another mean of mass manipulation, controlled by a few people with financial interests in the matter.
The overall concept states temperature increase, glacier melting, ocean water desalinization that leads to frost during winter and killing of ocean flora and fauna, rise of sea levels and flooding low ground areas, desertification and creating environments that are no longer fit for agriculture, with an ultimate effect of massive human deaths due to starvation.
Even if this could be a valid scenario, it most certainly will not happen during the next few centuries, as some influential people want us to believe. Their gain comes from consumerism. Green technology costs more, bio-foods cost 10 times the normal food, and people are buying them more and more, because they want to be Eco-friendly.
The global warming conspiracy is a double-blade knife, and the truth is somewhere in the middle, because ignoring the problem may actually lead to catastrophic events, as previously presented, but exaggerating can lead to a new society of consumerism, for which the Earth has no longer enough resources.
