George Moonbat likely makes enough to personally afford an organic lifestyle and actually means this as a way to "feed" the unwashed masses... wonder if he grows his own organic garden in secret or purchases from a secret CSA? lol

"The third thing, we call it “Green Travel”. So, we have within our business something called AMAP – a mapping, think Google Maps or Ways – plus travel destination business. So what we’re going to allow people to do is, first of all, calculate the best and most efficient route and also the most efficient form of transportation. And then, if they take advantage of those recommendations, we’ll give them bonus points which they can redeem elsewhere on our platform. So, they are incentivised to do the right thing, even while they are provided the opportunity to do the wrong thing.”
So let’s put these three facts together. It seems Alibaba currently has apps, either being used or in development, that:

  1. Monitor travel routes and methods and “reward” users for making the “correct choice”.
  2. Can track an individual’s “carbon footprint”, including what they eat and where.
  3. Have users “earn points” for “earth-friendly habits”.
Even individually these functions are worrying enough, but they combine to paint a very concerning picture of the future.

Further, combine that with what we know of the company’s reach through its subsidiaries: Smart Cities, banking, healthcare records, emails, internet activity and more.

How long before Alibaba decides to “reward” other “correct choices” that have nothing to do with the environment? Like vaccination, for example.

How long after that do they start punishing incorrect choices?

They already technically have access to the data they would need to construct this system. It would be naïve in the extreme to not see where this leads.

And, of course, it won’t just be China. If Alibaba is doing this then Google, Amazon, Apple and all the rest of them won’t be far behind."

The Bank of England has called on ministers to decide whether a central bank digital currency should be “programmable”, ultimately giving the issuer control over how it is spent by the recipient.

Tom Mutton, a director at the Bank of England, said during a conference on Monday that programming could become a key feature of any future central bank digital currency, in which the money would be programmed to be released only when something happened.

He said: “You could introduce programmability - what happens if one of the participants in a transaction puts a restriction on [future use of the money]?

“There could be some socially beneficial outcomes from that, preventing activity which is seen to be socially harmful in some way. But at the same time it could be a restriction on people’s freedoms.”

He warned that the Government would be required to intervene and make the final decision.

A report commissioned by the United Kingdom (UK) government says the entire country will need to ban most air travel within ten years and all air travel by 2050 to abide by impossibly lofty climate change laws.

"You will be going to office meetings in the metaverse within three years. Or at least that’s what Bill Gates thinks.

The billionaire Microsoft founder made a major metaverse prediction in his famous “Year in Review,” an annual collection of reflections and guesses about what will happen in the year to come.

“Within the next two or three years, I predict most virtual meetings will move from 2D camera image grids—which I call the Hollywood Squares model, although I know that probably dates me—to the metaverse, a 3D space with digital avatars,” Gates wrote. "

Unless people get innovative real quick, the Trucker movement might be the last thing we see as "resistance on wheels". Why should the gov't have a monopoly on anti-gravity tech...lying to us that it's the stupid aliens? With each passing day, the march(or drive) on DC that people want to see begins to fade.

Iam optimistic that people will get creative afterall, necessity is the mother on all invention...for the inventors out there, just resist selling out to the corporations. Besides, the gov't will make sure you don't enjoy your windfall by restricting how you spend it (CBDCs).

Because ENERGY is business nr 1 in this world so they lie about what energy is and how to synthesize it (you cant create or destroy energy,only transform it from one state to another).They keep pushing on us their reality where energy can only synthesized by ways of destruction - if we want energy then we have to destroy something ,burn wood or coal or gas or split atoms etc .They have actually managed to convince people that sun is a giant nuclear bomb that wont stop exploding lol. With this green energy scam they are trying to pretend there is some nice alternative to synthesize energy by not destroying anything but thats ofcourse just an illusion for simpletons - those windmills and solar panels dont last for shit and they cant be recycled,and the energy they produce is uncertain amounts and at ta time when nobody uses it ,resulting in an unstable powergrid.Most electricity consumption takes place in the evening when sun dont shine and wind usually calms down the darker it gets (since wind is pressure propagation in the atmosphere- warm high pressure flowing towards cold,low pressure ,always in a spiraling manner.Wind never blows straight just like water never moves straight.Nothing moves straight in the universe ,all motion is curved that wants to form a spiral in the long run).
Pretty much all and everything we call "energy" is pressure propagation in the medium and all pressure propagates in the form of waves.All waves are compression(increase of pressure/density) and expansion(release of pressure& density) in the medium . The bigger an area the waves cover as they propagate the more they will lose their volume (volume-density in a given 3 dimensional area).Sound gets weaker the further u go from the speaker ,light gets weaker the further u go from its source etc.This video might help understand how that compression->expansion->compression->expansion creates what we perceive as waves

Just like a river is an constant energy source that we can tap into (high pressure moving towards lower pressure) so there are in the universe other kinds of energy flows that we can tap into .
Its a tough topic that is very hard to explain ,quite some amount of homework would be essential to work through .
I drop some suggestions below -
