6. The Differences between the Greens and the Blues.
6.1: Introduction.
A decade ago the mundi club started promoting what it innocently believed to be the common sense policy of Reforestation as a means of combatting global burning. It gradually became obvious that, despite their attempts to cover up such views, the overwhelming number of greens were opposed, in varying degrees of intensity, to such a policy. That greens opposed the greening of the Earth was something of a shock and the mundi club eventually referred mockingly to them as 'the greenless greens'.[18] Over the years it has become apparent that much more is involved in this dispute than different tactics over climate change. Beyond this dispute are two opposing philosophies. This article explores the differences between on the one hand gaians/geophysiologists/geocentrics who, in this work, are regarded as greens and, on the other hand, the greenless greens who, as this article explains, ought to be referred to as 'blues'.

6.2: A Blue Planet not a Green One.
One of the fundamental differences between the greens and the blues concerns their understanding of the critical factors influencing the Earth's climate. The blues believe the Earth is a blue planet not merely in the literal sense that, when seen from outer space, the predominant colour of the Earth is blue but in the sense that the water cycle is the dominant phenomenon influencing the climate. The blues believe the water cycle stabilizes the Earth's climate.

Bell, Art & Strieber, Whitley.
“The way that the oceans circulate, distributing heat across the planet, is what determines our weather. When the great oceanic currents change, climate changes with them.”[19]

Bunyard, Peter.
“The continued function of the oceans as a net sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide is of critical importance for a stable climate.”[20]

Global International Waters Assessment.
“The character of our planet, physically as well as biologically, is shaped by water. Without water all life ceases.”[21]

Nasa.
Nasa quotes arthur c clarke approvingly, "As the science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke once pointed out, "How inappropriate to call this planet Earth, when clearly it is Ocean.""[22]

Understanding Global Issues
“The oceans are, on average, 3,800 metres deep, compared with the average height of the Earth’s land mass at about 840 metres. The huge volume of water on the earth’s surface acts as a giant stabiliser of climate, preventing warming or cooling from getting out of hand.”[23]

The blues dismiss the gaian idea that Photosynthesis is responsible for stabilizing the climate and is therefore the essence of the Earth’s life support system. Gaians point out that if Photosynthesis hadn't been around for a couple of aeons then there would be no water left on Earth and the Earth would now be just like its neighbouring planets venus and mars. More fundamentally, gaians believe that without Photosynthesis there would be no life on Earth and that the Earth would be as lifeless as its neighbouring planets.[24] Gaians deem Photosynthesis to be the engine of life on Earth whereas blues believe it is just a pretty adornment to industrial, retail, or housing, estates. It is surprising that blues suggest that the main factor stabilizing the climate is dead, inorganic, matter such as water rather than a living phenomenon which is highly responsive to change. It seems almost logical to propose that the factor stabilizing the Earth's climate must be something that is alive rather than inert. Photosynthesis is the lifeblood of this living planet so it seems irrational to suspect that it doesn't play, at the very least, a major role in influencing the climate. How is it possible for something inert like water to be a dynamic, responsive force stabilizing the climate and keeping the planet alive? Such a view seems to assume that life on Earth has no connection with the life of the Earth. It is as if for blues, life consists merely of actors on a pre-prepared stage which is kept in a livable state by the water cycle's lifeless processes.

6.3: The Blues want to Combat Global Burning Technologically.
Following on from these differences over the main agent stabilizing the climate, are differences over global burning. The blues believe that global burning is a problem caused by the burning of fossil fuels releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. They demand reductions in greenhouse emissions - some even want the abolition of fossil fuels. They believe that global burning can be solved only by technological means i.e. pollution reduction technologies and the introduction of alternative energy such as solar power, hydro-electric power, wind power, etc because these forms of energy do not release greenhouse gases.

In contrast, greens believe global burning is caused primarily by the pharming industry's devastation of the Earth’s Forest cover. They blame both traditional organic pharming and modern, capital intensive, factory pharming for destabilizing the climate. As lawrence e joseph has argued, “The most important practical difference between Gaia and mainstream environmental policy is in its emphasis on the evils of agriculture over those of industry, since deforestation for the purpose of food cultivation is what most immediately threatens the tropical rainforests and the warm coastal seas that surround them.”[25] Greens insist that global burning is a geophysiological problem which has to be solved both by Reforestation and by reductions in greenhouse gas emissions carried out by Carbon debtor nations. The urgency is to get Carbon out of the atmosphere.

Geophysiologists point out that the blues, rather bizarrely, have not ecologically costed their alternative energy policies. The blues just assert that alternative forms of energy are sustainable and expect the rest of the world to accept that they know best. The blues denounce the fossil fuelled industries for refusing to ecologically cost their policies but then refuse to cost their own. Greens are also wary of alternative forms of energy because they are likely to cause as much ecological devastation as fossil fuels.

6.4: Blues Promoting Deforestation as a Means of Combatting Global Burning.
The blues only proposal for tackling global burning is technological reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. They dismiss Reforestation and the restoration of the Earth's life support system as a means of combating global burning. As has just been suggested, they do not believe that Photosynthesis has any major part to play in stabilizing the climate which forces them to ignore the close relationship between Forests and the water cycle.

The blues are so opposed to Reforestation they even criticized one of the most important climate scientists of our time. James lovelock had demanded that blues attach more importance to the destruction of Forests as a cause of global burning rather than continuing to focus on reductions in Carbon emissions, "To me the vast, urgent and certain danger comes from the clearance of the tropical forests. Greenhouse gas accumulation may be an even greater danger in time to come, but not now."[26] The blues attacked lovelock because they believed his criticisms dissipated the pressure they were exerting on the over-industrialized countries to reduce their Carbon emissions. It was stated, “The irony was that the green guru had given an opening to those people who wanted the global warming issue to go away. It was a perfect excuse for western leaders to stall action. Their priority was a buoyant economy. They reopened the battle with the ipcc.”[27] - thereby ignoring the fact that if blues hadn't ignored Reforestation for the last decade or so then such an opening would not have been possible.

Blues do not merely dismiss Reforestation as an unimportant means of combating global burning. Nor do they merely oppose Reforestation. Even worse, they believe that deforestation is a good way of combating global burning:-

Gordon Bonan.
“Gordon bonan and colleagues .. have simulated the effect of removing all the forests north of 45N and replacing them with bare soil. Because forests with stable snow cover reflect almost half the sunlight falling on them, whereas open areas covered by snow reflect more than two-thirds of the sun’s rays, chopping down boreal forests has a cooling effect in the winter half of the year. The resultant cooling is startling. At 60N the average fall in temperature is 12C, and even in late summer when there is no snow and the soil absorbed as much sunlight as the forest it replaced, the cooling was still 5C.”[28]

Nasa.
"Similarly, forests may influence the climate in more complicated ways than previously thought. For example, in regions with heavy snowfall, reforestation or afforestation would cause the land to reflect less sunlight, and more heat would be absorbed, resulting in a net warming effect despite the removal of CO2 from the atmosphere through photosynthesis during the growing season. Further, reforestation could increase transpiration in an area, putting more water vapor in the air. Water vapor in the troposphere is the biggest contributor to greenhouse gas warming."[29]
The blues believe the oceans carry out more Photosynthesis than terrestrial Plants. For instance, greenpeace argues, “Around twice as much Carbon is emitted by fossil fuel burning and deforestation as ends up in the atmosphere. Some 7 billion tonnes of Carbon comes from fossil fuel and forest-burning, and we know that only 3.4 billion tonnes of Carbon stays up in the atmosphere as Carbon dioxide each year. How much of the rest goes into the land-plant sink, and how much goes into the ocean sink, has in detail always been a mystery. A new estimate for Carbon uptake suggests 2.1 billion tonnes of Carbon goes into the oceans, with a billion tonnes of Carbon going into the land sink. This new estimate differs with earlier studies which estimated that only a billion tonnes of Carbon are being taken up by the oceans, with more than two going into land plants. This new study uses Carbon isotopes. Both fossil fuels and plants are lighter in Carbon-13 than atmospheric Carbon dioxide, so that the decrease in Carbon-13 over time in ocean waters gives a measure of how much anthropogenic Carbon dioxide is being taken up by ocean waters.”[30] The blues believe the Earth has a constant level of Photosynthesis so that even if oomans chopped down the Earth's Forests, this wouldn't lead to a reduction in the Earth's Photosynthetic capacity because the nutrients would end up in the oceans stimulating marine Photosynthesis. This is another reason why blues believe that the water cycle is more important than Photosynthesis in stabilizing the climate.

6.5: The Blues blame Urban people for causing Environmental Damage.
The blues believe it is possible to create an environmentally friendly planet only if oomans go back to living on small scale, family, pharms. They believe it is when people live on the land that they protect the soil because, so they argue, it is in the best interests of those who pharm the soil to protect it. They thus regard pharmers as ‘custodians of the countryside’. Correspondingly, the blues tend to blame urban people and urban industries for wrecking the environment. Blues always blame urban people/industries for environmental damage whilst looking to pharmers and rural people to repair such damage - despite the fact that most environmentalists live in cities. Michael jacobs is one of the few commentators who has taken up the mc's insight into this contradiction within the so-called green movement, “It is one of the curiosities of the british environmental movement that although 80% of british citizens live in towns and cities, a disproportionate emphasis is given by environmental pressure groups to protecting various aspects of the countryside. This is one of the hidden issues of contemporary politics.”[31]

6.6: The Blues want to disburse Urbanites into the Countryside.
The blues' belief that an environmentally sound way of life is possible only in rural areas means they support the idea of sending millions of people back into the countryside to become small scale pharmers. The blues want to depopulate urban areas, “City life is marked by consumption and waste. Cities, however small, have always been parasitic on the countryside around them, not least because the majority of their inhabitants must rely on farmers in the countryside to provide them with food. Where cities are small, and the demands of their citizens limited, the degradation caused need not undermine their viability. But the demands being made by city-dwellers today, particularly in the industrialized countries are global in their reach, and global in their implications. Meeting even the demands of present day cities is placing an intolerable burden on the environment and society as more and more resources are sucked into urban conglomerations.”[32] Norberg-hodge defends the mass movement back into the countryside, “An equally common myth that clouds thinking about more human scale rural economies is that “there are too many people to go back to the land”. It is noteworthy that a similar scepticism does not accompany the notion of urbanizing the world’s population. It is considered ‘utopian’ to suggest a ruralization of america’s or europe’s population; but china’s plans to move 440 million people into the cities during the next few decades hardly raises eyebrows.”[33] Of course, once again, the blues have not ecologically costed their proposals.

Gaians believe the movement of people back to the countryside would lead not to a sustainable way of life but the urbanization of the countryside. They believe people can minimize their impact on the environment by living in towns. The greater the concentration of people in urban areas, the greater the ecological savings.

6.7: Blues support for Organic Pharming.
Whilst gaians condemn the global pharming industry for devastating the Earth’s Photosynthetic capacity and destabilizing the climate, the blues promote organic pharming as a sustainable form of agriculture. Unfortunately, it has to be suggested that if the blues succeed in replacing modern, highly-intensive, industrialized pharming with small scale, family-owned, organic pharming this would lead to an even greater decimation of the world’s remaining Forests in order to maintain the current scale of meat production. Whilst modern factory pharming is highly intensive, organic pharming is highly extensive requiring far more land in order to provide the same number of corpses. Once again, the blues have not ecologically costed such a policy.

6.8: To Understand the Earth you’ve got to be a Tribalist.
Some blues suggest that even support for organic pharming may not be enough. They take the view that people should return to tribalism and graze on the Earth's resources. Wolfgang sachs believes tribalists' dependence on their local ecologies leads them to protect such habitats. They know everything about their local ecologies to ensure their survival and the survival of such habitats. Sachs believes that if all oomans were tribalists, living in harmony with their local ecologies, then the overall effect would be to create a healthy, climatically stable, planet.

Sachs criticizes ‘global environmental managers’ or ‘global ecologists’ such as the Earth scientists working for nasa, the scientists on the inter-governmental panel on climate change, and geophysiologists. He dismisses them for being the antithesis of the tribalist way of life. He accuses them of aiming to control the Earth’s entire life support system for the benefit of oomans - as if the same effect wouldn't also be achieved by a planet of six billion tribalists, “Environmentalism is being framed through an astronaut’s perspective. The blue planet, suspended in the dark universe, has become the object of science and politics. Without the photographs of the earth it would scarcely have been possible to view the planet as an object of management. But there is a political, a scientific and a technological reason as well. Only in the course of the eighties - with the ozone hole, acid rain, and the greenhouse effect - did the global impact of pollution by industrial societies force itself into the foreground. Scientists have made enormous headway in representing the biosphere as an all embracing eco-system. And a new generation of instruments and equipment has created the possibility of measuring global processes. During the past decade, satellites, sensors, and computers have provided the means for calibrating the biosphere and displaying it in models. Research on the biosphere is rapidly becoming big science.”[34] He fears environmental managers will try to manipulate the Earth’s climate thereby causing so much disruption they could make the Earth uninhabitable.

Sachs’s criticisms of nasa’s Earth scientists aiming to control the planet for the benefit of ooman interests are fair. However, his criticisms of geophysiologists for wanting to pursue the same objectives are not. It is true that geophysiology is what could be called the first science of the Earth. It makes use of satellites, computer models, and takes an archimedean perspective by looking at the Earth from outer space. But whereas Earth scientists want to refashion the Earth in oomans' interests and treat it like a global national park, this is not true of geophysiologists. The only influence that geophysiologists seek to exert is ensuring sufficient Forest cover to stabilize the Earth’s climate. Geophysiologists would not interfere in the Earth's life sustaining processes in order to stabilize the climate.[35]

It is ironic that sachs categorizes geophysiologists as 'blue' when this article is trying to show that nasa, global environmental managerialism, and tribalism, are blue because of their opposition to Reforestation. Tribalists do not support Reforestation because they believe that tribes will exploit whatever their local ecologies may be, whereas nasa-ites and global mangerialists have no intention of wasting good land on Forests when they could be suffocated by industrial developments, housing estates, supermarkets, or hospital complexes. Only geophysiologists support Reforestation. They demand such a policy to stabilize the climate and to provide oomans with the renewable resources they need for their survival.

6.9: Blues Defend Pharmers’ Interests.
In brutland, as is all too likely in other countries around the world, the blues have helped to protect pharmers’ interests and values - even when pharmers have been ecologically destructive:

* when rachel carson highlighted the damage being caused by the extensive use of pesticides, the blues blamed the chemical industry for producing such chemicals rather than the pharming industry for using them. It might have been thought that, at the very least, the pharming industry ought to share some of the blame but blues insisted it was all the fault of the chemical industry for forcing pharmers to use such chemicals. This was despite the fact that pharmers were continually demanding that the chemical industry supply them with as many pesticides as possible;

* the blues also blamed the chemical industry for bse rather than the pharming industry’s cannibalistic practice of recycling Animal protein - this is a practice common to both modern and traditional pharming;

* the blues supported the pharmers when they triggered off the fuel tax insurrection in september 2000;

* the blues refused to blame pharmers for the floods which inundated 11,500 homes during the autumn-winter 2000-2001;

* the blues refuse to condemn the massive welfare benefit subsidies being given to pharmers;

* the blues refuse to condemn the massive frauds perpetrated by pharmers to boost their welfare benefit subsidies - one such fraud resulting in the f&m epidemic which eventually cost the country £4-5 billion. Instead the blues blamed the government’s and the european community’s abolition of the country’s grossly unhygienic local abattoirs because of the longer distances that Animals had to be transported to centralized abattoirs. The blues are currently demanding the construction of large numbers of local abattoirs. Who would have thought that the blue movement and the blue party, seemingly devoted to love and peace, would end up demanding local concentration and extermination camps? The european community ought to be congratulated for abolishing the localized hell holes the blues called local abattoirs. The blues ought to pay one way visits to their local abattoirs.

* the blues refuse to acknowledge that the global pharming industry is the biggest contributor to global burning.

6.10: Blues' support for Animal Exploitation.
The second fundamental difference between blues and greens is that blues support the Animal exploitation industry and the hunting of Wildlife whereas greens do not. The blues' support for organic pharming means the continued exploitation of livestock (slave) Animals and the slaughter of Wildlife i.e. Fox hunting, both of which contribute to environmental devastation. The slaughter of livestock and Wildlife legitimizes whaling, Elephant culling, bush meat, etc. It also means the perpetuation of anthropocentrism i.e. oomans’ belief that they are masters of the Earth. It could be argued that if the blues supported only the hunting of Wildlife rather than livestock grazing then there might be less of an incompatibility between Animal exploitation and Forests but the only blues who support such a line are tribalists.

The following sections look at the differences between blues and greens as regards the exploitation of livestock Animals and the relationship between oomans and Wildlife.

6.11: Compulsory Integration - Even if it Costs your life.
The blues support the notion of oomans living in harmony with Wildlife whilst greens advocate that Wildlife ought to be allowed to live in ooman-free Wilderness areas where they will be free from ooman persecution. Blues promote an integrationist ethic whereas greens advocate segregation. Blue integrationists are opposed to what they laughably refer to as "the false separation between humanity and all other life". They are opposed to any barriers between oomans or Animals.

Blues' opposition to barriers between oomans and Animals is part of a general philosophy opposing all barriers not only those between oomans and Animals but those between oomans. Thus blues denounce national borders between countries; the separation between people brought about by private property; the reluctance of the young and old to live alongside each other. However, opposition to barriers goes even deeper than this. They believe that nobody should need to lock their front doors; that banks should operate without any barriers between themselves and their customers; that there should be no barriers down the middle of motorways; that everyone ought to love each other; that oomans ought to all share resources, etc. Even charles windsor, who has brilliantly managed to segregate himself and his vast land holdings from the great mass of people around the country, has been reported as supporting this barrierless society, “Charles called for the development of new towns with young, old, rich and poor living side by side.”[36] It has to be suggested, however, that such views are quintessential anarchistic juvenalia - the absurd idealism of adolescents who refuse to accept the dirty, gory world as it is. The blues' opposition to barriers leads them to envisage a global blue village where all oomans are entitled to go where they want, when they want, and how they want. They believe oomans should be allowed to live, work, and travel, wherever they want around the world and that Wildlife should happily co-exist alongside them. It should not take too much imagination to appreciate that these anarchist principles are almost exactly the same as capitalist principles.

Greens, on the other hand, believe that oomans ought to segregate themselves from Wildlife. Firstly, as a form of self defence since living in proximity with wild Animals can often be extremely dangerous. Secondly, because all the major diseases that have afflicted oomans throughout their history have come from Animals - the latest of which is bse-cjd. Thirdly, ooman-free Wilderness areas would play a vital role in helping to stabilize the Earth’s climate. Such a segregation would also be good for Wildlife since it would prevent oomans from killing them for food, fun, or profit.

Greens acknowledge that the integrationist ethic, oomans living in harmony with Wildlife, sounds alluring. In reality it is a euphemism legitimizing the hunting of Animals - and, indeed, the slaughter of livestock Animals - ‘let us live side by side until the time comes for me to slit your throat’. The last thing that blue integrationists want is for Wildlife to live in ooman-free Wilderness areas beyond the reach of the cut-throat army of oomans. It has been argued, "Conservation by segregation is the Noah's ark solution, a belief that wildlife should be consigned to tiny land parcels for its own good and because it has no place in our world." (‘Do or Die’). These objections are irrelevant to the idea of ooman free Wilderness areas. Their purpose is simply to disparage the idea without examining it. Firstly, Wildlife need not be confined to small parcels of land. On the contrary, they should be able to enjoy massive Wilderness areas. Secondly, if people want Lions and Tigers wandering through their villages then that is up to them but such integration would be in addition to, and not a substitute for, ooman free Wildlife areas. The idea of ooman-free Wilderness areas is designed to protect Wildlife from oomans and also oomans from Wildlife.

The blues belief in the principle of ‘living in harmony with nature’ is the clearest example of blue-wash. No matter how attractive such a principle may seem to be, it's just a propaganda slogan for oomano-imperialists who enjoy killing Animals.

Advocates of the Integrationist Ethic.

Do or Die.
Not surprisingly for an organization which implacably supports an integrationist ethic, these anarcho-juveniles insist on segregating species at its meetings, “Mass trespass in commemoration of the diggers. Meeting saturday, 12 midday for mass trespass to mystery site (no Dogs).”[37] Could you trust integrationists who can’t even live in harmony with their Dogs?

Global Commons
A number of greens support the idea of the global commons i.e. that the air, sea, and land, should be free for anyone to use. This is the martini brand of blue politics: oomans can go wherever they want, whenever they want, and in whatever way they want. It’s promiscuous and irresponsible. This is a philosophy of perfection where everyone loves the Earth and its Wildlife. But, when people don’t, it’s a disaster because they soon exhaust the Earth’s resources. To give one small example of what happens where there are global commons/common lands. In a jeremy clarkson programme on cars there was an article about the popularity of 4-wheel drives in iceland. Because 80% of iceland is common land, people have the right to drive all over the ice sheets acting like overgrown yobs .[38]

6.12: Living in Harmony with Wildlife is just an Excuse for Colonizing Wilderness Habitats.
The integrationist ethic is not merely a rationalization of hunting and carnivorism, it is being used to promote oomans' invasion and colonization of conservation areas and the remaining wild areas of the Earth. The blues believe that conservation, or ‘Wilderness', areas originally created to prevent oomans from decimating Wildlife, should be turned into game reserves so that local people can return to live in these areas and exploit both the Wildlife and the resources on which they depend. Such a policy puts Wildlife under a triple threat. Firstly, from hunting. Local people can hunt Wildlife to obtain resources for their own use or they can make large profits by inviting wealthy international hunters to shoot Animals for trophies. Secondly, the profits from trophy hunting are used to construct community facilities which gradually leads to a population explosion and further expropriation of land from Wildlife. Thirdly, local people graze their livestock in conservation areas thereby consuming the resources previously used by Wildlife. The consequence of these threats is invariably a considerable diminution in the number and variety of the Wildlife living in these former conservation areas. The blues believe this integrationist policy will provide permanent protection for Wildlife but since there is nothing to stop ooman expansionism it will invariably result in the eradication of Wildlife. The basic assumptions of blues' policy for colonizing Wildlife reserves are firstly, that all Animals on Earth have got to learn to pay their way, just like oomans. And, secondly, that hunting is necessary to control burgeoning populations of Wildlife species - although, strangely, they see no harm in oomans having as many sprogs as they want. Theoretically, there could be harmony between oomans and Wildlife if oomans agreed to limit their numbers and the area of land they can expropriate but this they refuse to do because their real intention is oomano-expansionism.

The euphemisms surrounding blues' integrationist ethic are prolific. The ethic of oomans’ living in harmony with Wildlife legitimizes oomans killing Animals. It suggests that only by killing Animals is it possible to save them. When oomans kill rare and endangered Wildlife species this is to done with the intention of preserving such species. It is not difficult moving on from this position to arguing that Fox hunting is vital because Foxes like being chased and mauled to death by packs of savage Dogs. However, when Animals kill oomans all hell breaks lose and gangs of pharmers roam the countryside slaughtering any Animal suspected of conspiring in such a deed.

Even radical blues, such as so-called green anarchists, are oomano-imperialists in the sense that they too demand that oomans ought to have the right to go wherever they want and to live wherever they want and yet they refuse to give these same rights to Animals. As far as they are concerned the only species on Earth which ought to be free are oomans.

Gaians believe that Wildlife is never going to be safe if oomans are allowed anywhere near them. The integrationist ethic is destined to lead to the total eradication of all Wildlife on Earth. The only way to protect Wildlife is to create ooman-free Wilderness areas in all countries around the world.

6.13: The Blues believe all Land was at one time or another Occupied by Oomans and that now Oomans want it back.
Another justification for blues' expropriation of conservation areas is that, at one time or another during ooman history, the entire Earth has been occupied by oomans and that today, this gives oomans the right to reclaim those areas not yet ruined by oomans' presence. As far as the blues are concerned, there is thus no such thing as Wilderness areas. By implication, what they are also suggesting is that there is no such thing as Wildlife.

Blue Advocates of Oomans' Colonization of Wilderness Areas.
Athanasiou, Tom.
“In the ongoing debate about saving the african Elephant from ivory poachers, proponents .. of hunting bans are under attack by third wavers who believe as the ‘economist’ (sic) wrote, that conservationists would be wiser to “set up a toughly controlled trading system to market a limited quantity of sustainably harvested ivory” than they would be to attempt to prohibit its use altogether. Third wavers have a point. The ivory ban campaign does not even begin to address the social conditions that engender Elephant poaching in the first place.”[39]

This is a bit like saying that there's no point trying to stop the nazis from exterminating jews until oomans have banished nazi tendencies from their souls. It would be wonderful if oomans could banish such evil tendencies in their souls but by then most jews would be dead. It is a little difficult to appreciate why, if oomans can’t organize a decent society for everyone to live in, that this entitles them to try and solve their problems by slaughtering Animals.

Chambers, Nicky; Simmons, Craig; & Wackernagel, Mathis.
Quite unusually for blues, these authors stress the need for land to be put aside for Wildlife. However, they want to confine Wildlife to a mere 12% of the Earth's land surface even though it was Wildlife which created the Earth’s habitability. Quite what the authors mean by ‘putting land aside for Wildlife’ is not discussed. Presumably it means 12% of the land in each country around the world? It is not known whether their plan would mean that oomano-terrorists would be prevented from trespassing on this land.

Unfortunately, doubts about the authors’ seemingly impressive commitment to Wildlife begin to surface when they condemn the situation where oomans are prevented from exploiting Wildlife in so-called Wilderness areas .. “such as in the case of some wildlife conservation projects where the development needs of local people are ignored.”[40] Do the authors believe that in Wilderness areas, Wildlife ought to ‘pay their way’ by offering themselves up to be shot by rich hunters to enable local people to earn enough money to trigger off a local population explosion? People who might be attracted by the slogan of local people taking control of local resources ought to appreciate that what blues actually mean is oomans exploiting Animals .

Colchester, Marcus.
“For, despite the prevalence of myths about .. ‘virgin forests’, the forests have been inhabited for thousands of years. Few areas of forest are unused or unclaimed by local communities.”[41] According to this anthropocentric logic, even when there were only two oomans on Earth they still owned all the Earth’s Forests.

Conservation Action Network.
“The decision eight years ago to ban the ivory trade has created a deep and lasting schism among the convention’s signatories. The split is manifested in two lobbying caucuses: the species survival network, under which conservationists and Animal rights groups have united, and the conservation action network, which represents the rights of people to exploit local wildlife. (One of the members of the can) is eugene lapointe, secretary-general of cites until he left in 1990 following allegations that ivory traders were funding his cites ivory unit. (There is a swing of opinion to the exploiters). The world conservation union, a swiss based body, the world’s largest grouping of environmental scientists, argues that where possible cites “should avoid blanket trade bans” because they create conflicts and, notwithstanding the recent successful crackdown on ivory trading, are unworkable in the long run. Indeed, most cites insiders and their scientific advisers favour co-operating with hunters and traders rather than outlawing them.”[42]

Easterbrook, Gregg.
Easterbrook has argued, “Officially enviros want a lower human population so that humankind will ‘tread lightly on the Earth’. The subconscious motive is the desire to be alone with nature: to have entire vistas of the natural world to yourself. But in the end the desire to control human numbers so that areas of the Earth might remain bereft of people is not a modest urge, but a self-centred one. This is best seen in nature preserves that have been established in the past decade or so in several developing nations, often in conjunction with western environmental groups. In most respects such preserves are excellent ideas. The exception is their effect on human beings. To establish the royal chitwan (national park) the nepali government expelled some 20,000 indigenous peoples from the territory they had occupied for centuries. Soldiers of the nepali army patrol royal chitwan, authorized to shoot on sight any peasants suspected of poaching. That means that in royal chitwan, as in several third world wilderness preserves, people may be hunted but not animals. Nepal is hardly the place where the desire to be alone with nature blinds environmental orthodoxy to the condition of the indigenous poor. At kruger national park in south africa, an important elephant preserve, wardens are authorized to shoot on sight natives gathering fuelwood. When kenya established amboseli wilderness preserve it first drove out the indigenous masai, promising compensation that was never delivered. Today the masai, a cattle grazing tribe that for centuries lived in reasonable harmony with amboseli wildlife, dwell in poverty on the park’s outskirts. When ethiopia founded bale mountain national park as a preserve for the endangered simien jackal, local peoples were barred from using the area as grazing grounds, as they had done for centuries. When the hated government of mengistu mariam fell in 1991, locals entered the park and began shooting the jackals, exacting revenge on animals that had been treated better than them.”[43]

Easterbrook believes that, in ethiopia, the simien Jackal was treated better than local people. But locals/tribals had been killing so many Jackals the only way to preserve them was by creating a Wildlife refuge. When the government collapsed it is hardly surprising these so-called Wildlife lovers resumed their hunting spree in order to sell Animal products for nike boots and pornographic mags of blonde bimboes - usually whilst their wives slaved away in the fields all day growing crops with screaming children on their backs. The arrogance of locals who believe they can just engage in wholesale over-population and then take over whatever bit of land they want in order to further boost their profligacy is incredible. They are just exercising the usual oomano-imperialist prerogative, ‘might is right’. They wouldn’t like it if Jackals started over-breeding and tried to take over land occupied by oomans.

It’s funny how oomano-imperialists like easterbrook think it is perfectly acceptable for third world governments to relocate millions of people in order to build motorways, dams, hydro-electric power stations, etc and yet find it unacceptable to put aside any land for Wildlife. Easterbrook lavishes praise on the creation of massive dams in canada and yet still quibbles about the creation of Wilderness areas to preserve Wildlife. The main problem entailed by relocation is that those relocated are not given sufficient land in compensation for their loss.

According to easterbrook, the indian army protects Tigers in the sundarban Forest preserve in west bengal, “Not protected are the impoverished peasants who enter the sundarban to collect honey from its thousands of natural beehives. The soldier-guarded bengal tigers spring on and kill at least 50 honey-seekers per year; poor, unarmed people risking their lives to gather something they can sell to feed their children. Orthodox environmentalism considers the preservation of bengal tigers a priority, the deaths of peasants a distraction better left unmentioned.”[44]

As soon as these .. “poor, unarmed people risking their lives to gather something they can sell to feed their children” are allowed to exploit Wilderness areas there will be a ‘once and for all’ ransacking of resources which will ultimately lead to an explosion in the numbers of oomans. As a consequence, more and more Trees will be cut down until, eventually, the entire Forest will be reduced to a desert and mass starvation will ensue. And then how are these people going to feed their children?

It is not true as easterbrook argues that the masai .. "dwell in poverty on the park’s outskirts." Some masai own huge areas of land and are very rich. The reason all the masai cannot find land to live on is because some members of their own tribe have far too much land for their own benefit and because of the masai's huge increase in population over the last few decades - exacerbated by the numbers of white women tourists trying to turn black men into sex objects4  .

According to easterbrook, the desire to provide Wildlife with ooman-free Wilderness areas in order to allow Wildlife to live with the dignity they deserve, and the critical role that such Wilderness areas would play in combatting global burning and stabilizing the climate, are both self-centred motives. Presumably, then, allowing oomans to trample over the Earth like an invading army of ecological terrorists is the epitome of selfless, altruism?

Meldrum, Andrew.
Meldrum paints a rosy picture of the campfire programme in some third world countries which enables local people to benefit from the slaughter of Animals in safari game parks. Whereas in the past local people used to slaughter Wildlife in order to survive, they now encourage rich hunters to fly around the world to do the killing for them and thus make substantial profits from blood sport tourism. Whereas in the past the area would never have been able to sustain anything more than tribal lifestyles, the money from tourism is allowing local people to urbanize Wilderness areas. If las vegas was built in the middle of a desert by criminal organizations, campfire villages are springing up as a result of the criminal destruction of Wildlife, “The (zimbabwe) government has set aside 10,700 square kilometres in northern zimbabwe to form the zambezi valley wilderness complex, an area which boasts the 2,196 square kilometre mana pools national park. .. the dande safari area - the 520 square kilometres set aside for hunting. “Hunting is the only hope for game to survive in africa,” says harry. “Wildlife must pay its way or humans will take over. We hunt a sustainable quota of 3% per year. And that earns a great deal of money used to preserve the Wilderness needed by the Animals.” Zimbabwe attracts about one million tourists a year and hunting brings in about 2,000 clients, who spend a total of $20 million. The Dande area is part of zimbabwe’s Campfire programme, which channels a significant proportion of the money earned from hunting to the rural people who live among the wildlife. (The meat from hunted Wildlife is shared amongst) 210 families registered with the local Campfire programme .. Far more significant to the masoka community is the money earned from hunting. “We have earned Z$500,000 (£31,250) each year for the past three years,” says joseph chisunga, masoka’s wildlife committee treasurer. “We have used that money to develop our community. We have built a new school block and a health clinic, we have purchased a tractor for tillage. We erected a solar-powered electric fence to protect our agricultural land from the Wildlife. Gift Zirota, the wildlife chairperson, explains how the programme has changed the community’s attitude towards wildlife. “Ten years ago, the animals destroyed our crops and attacked us. Now with Campfire, we get meat plus money from hunting. The wildlife is now an asset and we look after them. We do not allow poachers. We welcome hunters because they help us to improve our community. Campfire’s pioneering concept, to balance the needs of africa’s rural people with wildlife, has already spread to zambia, namibia, and south afriuca. Throughout zimbabwe, Campfire schemes last year earned more than Z$13 million (£812,000) for rural communities. The number of communities participating has grown from 15 in 1989 to more than 100 in 1996.”[45]

Monbiot, George.
Monbiot, a member of the brutish landowning aristocracy, condemned the ousting of masai from a safari park.

Pretty, Jules and Pimbert, Michael.
“From 2,000 protected areas 20 years ago, there are now 8,600. They are to be found in 169 countries, covering 792 million hectares - nearly 6% of the world’s land mass. But the global expansion of national parks has been accompanied by a powerful ideology that people are bad for nature, and so the wider public good is best served by keeping them out. As a result, millions of people have been resettled or prevented from using what were once their resources. In africa, two thirds of all protected areas (equal to five times the size of great brutland) exclude people, allowing no use of wild Plants or Animals. In india, where the number of sanctuaries and national parks has grown from 65 in 1960 to 530 today, some 600,000 tribal people have been forcibly removed and resettled elsewhere. In laos, some 900,000 people will be removed from upland Forests by the end of the century, mostly in the name of conservation. What is often forgotten is that these people also value the flora and fauna. In ghana .. a farmer selling bushmeat can make more in a day than a civil servant. It is often forgotten or not appreciated that the very ecosystems deemed worthy of protection from people have been shaped as much by human action as by any other factor. Some “pristine rainforests” assumed to be untouched by human hands, are now found to have once supported thriving agricultural communities. This concept of the Wilderness is an urban myth that exists only in our imagination. Open protest and rallies against protected areas, attacks on guards, poisoning of Animals and deliberate burning of Forests have now become common. When namibia became independent in 1990, ovambo tribesmen living on the boundary of etosha national park celebrated their freedom by cutting the game fence and driving into the park to hunt game for their families to eat. In madhya pradesh and assam in india, local resentment against the Tiger and Buffalo reserves has been readily harnessed by insurgency movements. In south india, some 20 square kilometres of the nagarhole national park were recently burned as a protest. As a result, the cost of enforcing park regulations has spiralled. In many countries, the bulk of the budget for protected areas is spent on aircraft, radios, machine guns, vehicles, armed guards and anti-poaching equipment. Emerging slowly from this mess, however, is a strengthening alternative vision that is putting people at the centre of conservation; it recognizes that humans and Animals can live in symbiotic relationships. When people are fully involved in conservation, the change can be remarkable. etc etc.”[46]

Rowell, Andrew.
“Northern environmentalists were primarily concerned about the fate of the Forest and were slow to realize that people lived in the amazon who were also an integral part of the eco-system. Around 86% of the protected areas in the region are inhabited. Traditionally it had been up to groups such as Survival International .. to champion the cause of the Forest dweller in the northern hemisphere. Thankfully, some environmentalists have started adopting a more realistic, holistic approach. Rubber tappers, on the other hand, were initially interested in land reform and social justice, and only later recognized the importance of the forest ecology. This said, some of the policies that northern environmentalists have advocated have been totally ignorant of forest dwellers and have done more harm than good. There are, for example, still problems where northern environmentalists have advocated the setting up of northern parks where the traditional forest dwellers have been excluded and expelled from their land. .. the policies have also actually increased deforestation as ranchers and industry have invaded areas previously protected by the evicted inhabitants.”[47]

Worldwide Fund for Nature and the World Conservation Union.
“The wwf and the world conservation union, an alliance of ngos and government agencies, both agreed new policies on indigenous people last year. For the first time, the two organizations explicitly recognized the rights of indigenous people to control their land.”[48]

Worldwide Fund for Nature.
“The largest environmental group in the continent (africa), the world wide fund for nature, is pulling out of the region’s game reserves and national parks. Senior wwf officials have admitted the organization’s traditional role in wildlife preservation is no longer tenable. The wwf’s idea, shared by many other conservation groups, is to integrate wildlife management back into the community and stop it being seen as the sole preserve of white men. The new york based conservation society now lists its prime activity as supporting african-based field scientists and works to tear down the fences between people and animals. In zambia, for instance, it aims to “help communities make informed decisions about the sustainable use of wildlife.” It is a strategy that claude martin has pursued since taking over in 1994 as director general from the more traditionally minded south african charles de haes.”[49]

6.14: No Geophysiological Analysis; No definition of Sustainability; No Vision of a Sustainable Planet.
Another major difference between the greens and the blues is that, quite remarkably, for all their claims to care about the environment, the blues have no geophysiological analysis that:-

* shows the way the Earth works;

* highlights the biggest contributors to global burning i.e. the global pharming industry; nor

* ecologically costs blue policies.

Surprisingly blues have no definition of sustainability. What this also means is that they have no vision of a sustainable planet. But, rather than seeing this as a liability, blues believe this is an enormous advantage since they can denounce policies they don’t like as being unsustainable without having to provide any evidence to back up such an allegation.

The mundi club invented the phrase 'the Earth's Photosynthetic capacity' in order to describe the totality of the Photosynthesis taking place on Earth. Scientists and so-called greens have not taken up such a concept. This suggests they have little interest in the role of Phytomass in shaping the Earth's history, its relationship to the climate, or its role in stabilizing the climate. This is not merely more evidence of the bankruptcy of the so-called green movement but the ease with which oomans are slithering towards ecocide without any voices being raised in warning. The mc has often argued that so-called greens have no concept of sustainability and no vision of a sustainable planet but to find they do not even have a concept for the totality of the Photosynthesis taking place on Earth is remarkable. It could be argued the best way of determining whether someone is a real green or a 'greenless green' is to ask them for their definition of sustainability. If they don't mention the Earth's Photosynthetic capacity then they are a greenless green.

6.15: Oomans are Eco-Terrorists.
Blues believe that oomans are members of the master race on Earth who are entitled to go where they want and to colonize any habitat they want. Greens believes that oomans are terrorists whose oomano-imperialist excesses need to be curbed as much as possible not merely by drastically reducing their numbers but by forcing them to live in restricted areas of the Earth. In the film 'Planet of the Apes' the Apes were wise enough to set aside a large area of land which they called the forbidden zone. There need to be vast stretches of forbidden zones on Earth. Oomans are such virulent terrorists the only way of creating a sustainable planet is by curbing oomans’ imperialist pretensions. And this requires oomans to renounce anthropocentrism for a theory which puts the Earth first i.e. geocentrism.

6.16: Collaborating with the Earth-Wreckers by trying to win their Votes.
Politically, many blues are little different from liberal democrats. They believe the best way of advancing blue politics is through winning local, regional, and national, elections. Unfortunately, once they enter electoral politics they are faced with the inevitable temptation of trying to win the votes of the Earth rapists they went into politics in order to oppose. Instead of criticizing, challenging, or condemning, Earth rapists, the blues seek to boost their interests by promoting Earth wrecking policies in the hope that one day they can persuade all voters to vote blue. But, of course, after implementing Earth wrecking policies in the hope of winning Earth-rapist votes, their chances of protecting what is left of the Earth’s life support system are negligible.

Anyone who joins the green party in the belief that it will provide them with a platform to criticize Earth rapists; expose their evil activities; and tell the public how grim the ecological situation is in order to encourage them to act, etc; will soon find they have made a serious political mistake. The blue leaders of the so-called green party do not believe the party ought to be run along such lines. They argue it is vital for blues to collaborate with the world’s biggest Earth rapists i.e. multi-national corporations, the landowning elite, the Animal exploiters, etc, in order to save the Earth. Indeed, many devote their whole political careers to lobbying multi-national corporations like enron to accept their planetary responsibilities. The blue party seems to believe that if it is to win elections then it needs to win the votes of Earth-rapists and the only way of doing this is by putting forward policies which appeal, not to the Earth, but to those who destroy the Earth. To discover that the main responsibilities of the blue party are:-

* formulating Earth-wrecking policies to win the votes of Earth rapists;

* ignoring the damage that Earth rapists are inflicting on the Earth;

* overlooking the scale of the global ecological disaster; and,

* pretending that what the Earth-rapists have done wasn't their fault;

is demoralizing and is not going to do anything to save the Earth. Radicals ought to be willing to talk to Earth rapists, and try and persuade them they have to stop what they are doing, but designing Earth-wrecking policies that appeal to them isn't going to do anything other than wreck the Earth.

The blue party not merely wants party members to woo the Earth rapists, it wants them to:-

- woo fishermen decimating the world’s Fish stocks;

- woo whalers decimating Whale species;

- woo big game hunters devastating Wildlife;

- woo cereal pharmers devastating the land;

- woo livestock pharmers devastating the land and slaughtering livestock.

6.17: Conclusions.
Life exists on Earth solely because of Photosynthesis. Without the ability of Micro-organisms, fungi, and Plants, to carry out Photosynthesis there would be no life on Earth, and the Earth itself would not be alive. Without Photosynthesis there would be no water left on Earth. Photosynthesizers are the foundation of the food chain on which all Animals, including oomans, depend. They also make the Earth habitable for Animals by providing habitats such as Coral reefs, Forests, Grasslands, etc. They provide environmental services which make it possible for life to flourish. But, most startlingly of all, Photosynthesizers help to stabilize the Earth's climate. Photosynthesis is the primary life-sustaining process on Earth and Photosynthesizers constitute the core of the Earth's life support system.[50]

Most blues don’t understand the history of the Earth’s climate nor the role of Forests in cooling the Earth’s climate and, as a consequence, they aren’t interested in Reforestation as a means of combating global burning. If you ask a blue ‘what is the basis of the Earth’s life support system’, or ‘what is the key to the Earth’s sustainability’, or even ‘what is the nature of a sustainable Planet’, most of them will drive off in their lightweight aluminium, energy efficient, lead-free, catalytic converted, recycled glass, recycled plastic, recycled rubber, recycled metal, free range, robot manufactured, cars with fake fur trims and nodding dogs in the back window, complaining about the need to curb greenhouse emissions with new technological gizmoes. The blues aren’t green. They are a threat to oomans’ life support system.

The fundamental difference between environmentalist/ecologists in the blue movement and geophysiologists in the green movement is that the former use the concept of sustainability without any reference to Photosynthesis (and thus invariably promote policies which destroy Photosynthesis) whereas the latter believe the concept is meaningless without Photosynthesis. As lynn margulis has stated, “The only ultimately productive beings are the cyanobacteria. Ultimately, a nation’s gross national product can only be biological, not industrial.”[51] To all intents and purposes, the Earth’s Photosynthetic capacity is the Earth’s climate stabilization system and thus the basis of the Earth's life support system. Geophysiologists therefore use the concept of sustainability as a means of justifying the protection of Photosynthesis.

The Earth's life support system is facing meltdown under the vast tide of oomano-expansionism in the form of the near-exponential increase in the numbers of cars, kids, Cattle, capital, or carnage. The blues regard themselves as environmentalists trying to stop such devastation but they are so ooman-orientated that all they do is promote policies that boost this devastation even further. The greenless greens are a front organization covering up for the Earth-wreckers, lulling the public into believing that something fundamental is being done to protect the environment when nothing is being done. With the greenless greens aiding and abetting the Earth-wreckers, there is less and less chance of stopping oomans from committing ecocide.
