Stop the Wars: Ease Global Crisis

“Is only the civilian economy responsible for climate change? I think not!" Dr. Rosalie Bertell
military impacts are left out of the Reports of the United Nations Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (UN IPCC).
Why? The United States lobbied at the 1997 Kyoto Accord to keep military emissions out—in the interests of "national security". That decision 22 years ago still perpetuates public misunderstanding, showing the world's people only half the reality.
It’s time to add the missing puzzle pieces to the picture: wars--the wars we see and the wars they hide--to shed light on wholistic solutions.
We can revitalize every local economy, as the Green New Deal proposes, by diverting part of the money we give the military, to public investment in the green economy instead; by redirecting soldiers to assist in weather / war disasters here and around the world; and to work on ecological reconstruction--starting with their 794 active contaminated sites and 865 unexploded bomb sites.
_______________________________________________________
My immediate goal is to publicize these realities, along with Canada’s military plan.
Beyond this, I hope to initiate a global coalition of peace and civil society organizations, Indigenous Nations, and refugee associations, to petition our world government, the United Nations, to acknowledge war as a cause of world crisis, and take emergency action.

Making the Links: The Climate Crisis, Militarism and War: Tamara Lorincz details U.S., NATO, and Canada's military in government and civil society documents.
Canada's 2017 Department of National Defence Plan is to spend $553 billion dollars of our taxes over 20 years to “maintain high end war fighting” with new jets, ships, drones, etc. They plan to militarize education: increase funding for defence R&D at universities.
Our foreign policy is the same as our military policy: to cooperate with US and NATO wars. There was no dissent by any MP from any party.

Independent Action
You could send whatever part of this information resonates with you, to your family, friends, and network contacts.
To raise the issues with decision-makers and the public you may want to consider:
* Every Member of Parliament needs to hear from their constituents.
The climate impact of Canada's wars--and the moral impact--is our collective responsibility.
Snail-mail to any MP is postage-free; copies to local and online media reaches more people.
* Every scientist on the UN IPCC needs to hear from us.
They invite us to "engage with https://www.ipcc.ch/about/the IPCC".
Cooperative Action
We could work together on specific mail campaigns, share information, consider possible actions. I welcome every idea, comment, and critique.

About Me
Public information outreach to make sustainable solutions widely available has been my work for more than four decades. I organized public meetings and workshops for global and local experts with a solutions perspective. Drs. Rosalie Bertell (who helped BC defeat nuclear reactors and uranium mines), Hazel Henderson, Paul Connett and Amory Lovins showed us how to actualize solutions to the most difficult problems we face.
As a teacher, citizen activist, and sole proprietor (Sustainable Community development services) I worked with local, national and international organizations and Indigenous Nations to promote cooperation. I co/founded several community eco-action groups and coalitions; stood for public office as an independent ecologist; organized and participated in numerous direct actions.
Ending war has been the focus of my work because my family, with my infant self, narrowly escaped Stalin's genocide and the War in Europe. Three children born in war, three in relative peace on Turtle Island, help me understand the world of difference. Inter-generational impact of war trauma has been my life experience and study.
At this time of crisis, stimulating big-time fight or flight response in us all, a positive approach can perform wonders of healing. Once we see the whole picture, we can depend on the human drive to understand and fix it.

The wars they hide: Weather War
"Owning the weather" has been a goal of the global military since the second world war; after the US genocide of Hiroshima and Nagasaki the nuclear bomb was considered too dangerous to use. But escalating weather disasters around the world show that electromagnetic weapons are as dangerous to life on Earth: pathological humans are destabilizing our planet.

The global military's best-kept secret is finally being exposed, by global activist cooperation, academics, scientists, and concerned citizens.

Social media is picking up. This was posted on Instagram by Canadian actor Michael Seklund:
Planet Earth: The Latest Weapon of War: Dr. Rosalie Bertell tells how geomagnetic weapons to ‘own the weather’ for military use have been developed by the global military, despite the UN Convention on the prohibition of military or any hostile use of environmental modification techniques, 10 December 1976 (the ENMOD convention). They avoid censure by calling them industrial research.
She details every aspect of the complex high-frequency weapons system. She explains how electromagnetic lightning, using the same process as natural lightning, can ignite forests.
Wildfire Armageddon: NOT the new normal if we stop weather war
The unprecedented forest fires of 2017 and 2018 burned more lands, forests, and homes in BC than the past 25 years combined: 2.57 million hectares. My 'second home' in the northwest is one of the many devastated Indigenous communities.
The Tahltan First Nation lost 40 homes and structures, 118,318 hectares were impacted; a $12 million debt bomb to clean up and restore infrastructure, with the cost of rebuilding yet to come.

For millennia, around the world, united, cooperative action has been the path to change. I hope we can work together to globalize peace.

More of my background in these issues
In 1978 I invited Dr. Bertell, who was an epidemiologist and leading expert in health impacts of low-level ionizing radiation, to help us prevent nuclear power and uranium mining. BC Hydro had planned a reactor on Vancouver Island—15 km from my home; the BC government set up a committee to develop U-mines . Family and friends, community groups and Indigenous Nations in seven cities, financed Rosalie's travel, organized public meetings and media coverage.
This speaking tour was one among thousands of public information events and actions by people around BC over fifteen years. In broad cooperation through province-wide networks, citizens stopped both these nuclear war industries—the only place in the world that has.
This and more astonishing victories by people protecting Earth, suggests that together, we can take on even the military, to ease our common survival crisis.
Dr. Bertell became expert in electromagnetic weapons after being named to the Environmental Assessment of the proposed Solar Satellite Project for the US Congress the same year. At a cost of $3000 per kilowatt hour, it was clearly not about civilian electricity.
I join thousands around the world who carry on Rosalie’s work. She advised environmentalists to put local issues into the context of global military dominance, and take cooperative global action. Regardless of political obstacles, using the services of United Nations agencies increases their effectiveness, and works toward the public oversight of the military: the first step to ending war.
Details and references be found at my website: www.action-on-military-climate-change.net.
More about my experience in this field will also be available on that site, in the context of forty years of community organizing, actions, and victories, of the many Earth protectors in BC. As well as preventing nukes and U-mines, we protected estuaries, rivers and farmland; appealed pesticide permits; helped Indigenous Nations prevent mega-dams, and fracking in the Sacred Headwaters; stopped bitumen pipelines, and tanker traffic on the Coast.
Over the course of 30 years, citizens from Metro to Cache Creek prevented a toxic incinerator in Ashcroft, established recycling in Metro Vancouver, and in 2015 defeated Metro's plans to incinerate one million tons of garbage a year (for 30-50 years!) in the city. They need our feedback to establish more and improved recycling collection and local remanufacturing of recycled resources.
That's me on the left publicizing Amory Lovins' climate solutions, and the advice of Indigenous Nations who, with their settler neighbours and province-wide networks, stopped the Coast Mountain pipeline . My co-activist friend Richard joined the walk up Burnaby Mountain with 10,000 other folks, to prevent the expansion of the Trans Mountain Kinder Morgan pipeline: eco-disaster in the wings now owned by Canadian taxpayers.
