Yeah, you get little, well, they're CEOs of corporations. They're politicians. They're kings. They're queens. They're leaders of nations in many cases. And they've always meant to have their conversations about what they feel, what these elites feel that our lives and our world should look like. And they have every right to do that. No problem. Until 2019.
Now, the United Nations has had a series of programs beginning. They started, there was UN SDG, Sustainable Development Goals, SDG for the year 2000. Their 15-year plan that expired in 15, and now they're looking at another 15 years, which expires in 2030. They put together 17 sustainable development goals that on the outside, Lewis, are beautiful goals.
And when you look at these, if you go to the computer and go to the website, they are a list of 17 things. Who wouldn't want these in the world?
For example... Not all 17, but yeah. Yeah, food security. Who doesn't want food security? Global health for families, global health for children. Who doesn't want those things? Now you read the fine print of how they plan to achieve those goals, and it is horrendous. It is a remaking of social structure of family and society everywhere.
Social engineering, to a degree, we've never seen in our world before. And leading to a world of centralized power and control. So let me, I'll just give you an example. Food security. Everybody wants food security. I'm down with that, you know, 100%. Now you read the fine print. You would think they would want to help small agrarian families in rural areas throughout the world.
Their idea of food security is to pump money into the big pharma and the big agriculture, corporate farms, GMO seeds, GMO insects to take care of these things. And what's happening is the little farmers are being forced out of business in the rural areas, not just in America. This is happening all over the world. And it's what it says on their website.
I mean, they're telling you how they want to achieve these things. So the small guys get forced out of business. These big corporate farms, they come in and they're buying up the farmland throughout America and throughout the world. That's not good for us. That's not good for us. Some of the climate goals that they're looking at.
I'm hesitant to get into this because each one could be an entire program, but let me just share. I want to share something with you and you probably, you may not be aware of this. As a degree geologist, I did a little experiment in January of 23 and I said, let's look at these climate goals because we're being led to believe that we are the problem. We humans Fossil fuels are the problem.
So rather than pushing back, let's just accept it. What would the world look like if we met every one of those goals? So let's take carbon dioxide, for example. Right now, CO2 levels about 420-ish parts per million. And I haven't looked in the last few months. I don't know, but it's in that ballpark. Is it high? Higher than it was 10 years ago? Absolutely. Is it higher than it was 50 years ago?
Absolutely. Is it the highest it's ever been on our planet? As a geologist, I can tell you absolutely not. We've had times during the Cretaceous and the Jurassic periods where 1,000 parts per million, 2,000 parts per million, and life, Earth was lush, green, life thrived. It was a little bit warmer. It wasn't unbearably warm. The ice melted. The sea levels rose. And here's the interesting thing.
What you see on those geologic maps is sometimes the CO2 levels are high and the temperatures are low. At times the temperatures are high and the CO2 levels are low. They're not necessarily 100% directly correlated. So if we were to meet the goals, right now the UN is proposing right around two, I think if we met the goals, we would see a CO2 level right around 220 or so parts per million.
Now most people say, okay, what's the big deal? Extinction level CO2 on this planet, when the CO2 drops below a certain level, forests die and life does no longer thrive. That is 180 parts per million. Wow. Now, the CO2 on Earth, it's not like you can take a little dial and fine tune and click, you know, by 10 parts per million here and there. I mean...
If they knock it back to the 220s, we're about 36, where's that, 36 away from parts per million away from the 180. That is really, really bad for us. So as a geologist, I went to the charts and I said, when was the last time we saw that on this planet? And it was during a time we call the Pleistocene era. We saw low levels of carbon dioxide, forests died, temperatures dropped.
Right now our average global temperature is about 59 degrees Fahrenheit. These proposals would drive it back to 46 degrees Fahrenheit. which means we'd have more ice in northern hemisphere, forest died, extinction levels. Here's the bottom line. It's not good for us. Those proposals are not good for humans. And you say, well, who's it good for? There's a whole conversation around that.
So that's one thing right there. Now let's take it to the next level. Let's look at what's happening. We are being encouraged to have conflict. Right now, the wars, you see very few people trying to back off and deescalate. Everybody's full scale ahead. Now, hopefully that's going to change.
But at the time of this conversation, there's a very real concern of the kind of wars that we haven't seen since the Cold War in the 1980s with nuclear weapons. What is the outcome of that? What we see is we're being encouraged for the nations of the world to deplete their weapons, deplete their resources, deplete their manpower. All right. That's not good for us. And that's happening.
So now we've got a remaking of the planet that's not good for us. We've got a remaking of our defenses that's not good. And now you look at society. And the social bonds that hold us together as families and communities and societies are systematically being dismantled. It started right around 2014 with the Occupy movement, the rich against the poor, which is an important conversation.
We need to have it in a kind way to solve the problem, but it was weaponized to divide us. rather than used as a way to bring us together. And then it went from that to men against women. Important conversation. It was weaponized. It went blacks against whites, Christians against Muslims, Jews against Muslims. Now men against women again, adults against children, the whole gender issue.
And when we allow ourselves to get drawn in to these conversations that hit those primal instincts that elicit states of consciousness, that betray our very nature, they elicit hate, they elicit revenge, they elicit fear. That steals from us the very essence of our humanness. And I'm going to talk about that here in just a moment. So now that's being happening.
You put this all together and you begin to look. There's a systematic movement to remake this world in a way. I'm 70 years old. I've never seen this in my 70 years. Really? Here's where this is different from any time in the past. A systematic movement to remake the world around us and a systematic movement to remake the world within us. Because we now have the technology.
