"backers of study include; Unesco, the World Bank, the US army and the Rockefeller Foundation, "

All prime reasons not to believe a word of it . Lol.

Now just throw in the Rothchilds, the UN, the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations), the Trilateral Commission and top it off with the Bildeberg Group and you have the near full set.

I think it's about time this gets taken seriously and by the powers-that-be as well as "alarmist" scientists. This ship steers so slowly that it will take 50+ years to get back on course even with a Herculean effort. I'll be dead, but that doesn't mean I'm not concerned.
