'DENY, CONFUSE, DELAY', it says in large letters on the front page of the ISD's 115-page report from June this year. Critics believe that it rather describes the goals of the globalists. It may be worth noting here that the globalists often write reports in which they present something as a threat, regrettable or inevitable - a scenario that then plays out in reality just like that and with clear traces of top-level manipulation. One such example was the Transition Integrity Project (TIP) group that was formed ahead of the stolen 2020 US presidential election. TIP warned of all the nasty tricks Trump could pull if he lost the election. In practice, however, the report contained guidelines for how Biden would secure victory even in the event of a 'clear win' for Trump. Image: ISD
Climate propaganda exposed by critical scientists and citizens
Globalists have myriads of powerful international organizations and NGOs at their disposal. These work tirelessly and often in secret to push various vital parts of their agenda forward. Today the most important "catalyst" to be able to achieve "The Great Reset" of our world and radically change almost all aspects of our lives is the alleged "global warming" that the ordinary citizen is blamed for.

One of these actors is the well-funded think tank ISD, which focuses on influencing European populations in a range of areas. They have recently released a report showing that the globalists believe they are losing the propaganda and information war regarding climate. The opponents who are singled out as “super-spreaders” of “disinformation” are surprising in several ways.
The extremely well-financed and influential globalist think tank Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD), the Institute works with influence campaigns directed at the populations of Europe and is paid for by these populations’ own authorities as well as globalists such as Bill Gates and George Soros.
One of the ISD’s focus areas is to monitor those who question or contradict the establishment climate narrative that there is global warming due to man-made carbon dioxide emissions. On June 9, the ISD published a 115-page report entitled Deny, Deceive, Delay: Documenting and Responding to Climate Disinformation at COP26 & Beyond.
COP26 (Climate Change Conference 26) was the United Nations climate change conference that took place last year between October 31 and November 13 in Glasgow, United Kingdom. At least 120 world leaders and over 40,000 registered participants, including 22 274 party representatives, 14 124 observers and 3 886 media representatives flew there to discuss how people could be made to emit less carbon dioxide.
MICHAEL SHELLENBERGER is an American author and democratic politician, including a gubernatorial candidate in California. He has been named “Hero of the Environment” by the news magazine Time and is a winner of the Green Book Award. Shellenberger has been called by the establishment “environmental guru”, “climate guru” and “North America’s leading public intellectual on clean energy” and “high priest” of the environmental movement. After he changed his mind, he is now singled out as one of six people that the globalists especially emphasize as a threat to their climate narrative, not least because he comes from their own ranks.

The climate conference was held at a time when many governments around the world had far-reaching travel restrictions that made it almost impossible because of forced medical experiments, to allow the public to fly or otherwise travel.
The ISD’s report is interesting insofar as it partly shows who it sees as its main opponents and how these are monitored, and partly also that it practically admits that the globalists’ and climate alarmists’ scaremongering about global warming has failed.
The ISD, their contributors and their report from June revealed some interesting facts.
War room setup
The report begins with a glossary where various keywords are defined. The first three are “Anti-vaxx/Anti-vaccine/Vaccine skeptics”, “Climate denial” and “Climate skepticism”, which much of the report revolves around. “Far left”, which is one of the words, is described as underdeveloped. Supposedly, extreme left “groups in contemporary Western societies are much less developed than those surrounding the extreme right”. The extreme right is described as having “the following characteristics: Nationalism, racism, xenophobia, anti-democracy and advocates a strong state or authoritarianism”.
On ISD’s website, where the report is available for download, we can read what the purpose of the report is and how it was done:
In the executive summary, we describe the most salient discourses identified before, during and after COP26. These stories show how the climate conversation has moved from outright climate denial to delay and distraction from action. These narratives infiltrate the public debate, positions for climate action are anchored in a broader individual identity and politics of grievance, [which] are emerging as a new front in the culture war. This report is a collective effort to quantify the problem and create concrete answers in the coming months and years. Created by ISD, CASM Technology and the Climate Action Against Disinformation Alliance (CAAD), it is a data-driven examination of the landscape, actors, systems and approaches that combine to prevent climate action.
PETER IMANUELSEN was born in 1994 in Norway and currently lives in North Yorkshire, Great Britain. He lived in Sweden during the years 1996-1999 before the family moved to the USA. They returned in 2002, but left again in 2004 according to the family (formally in 2009 according to the Tax Agency). Sweden’s very negative attitude towards home schooling and later ban in 2010 is said to be the reason why the family left Sweden. Imanuelsen describes himself as a Swedish freelance journalist, but has British citizenship, which is less known. Today, he is singled out by the globalists as a dangerous and frequent “criminal” and a “super-spreader” of errors and misinformation. His Twitter account PeterSweden (@PeterSweden7) has 335 800 followers at the time of writing. Photo: Peter Sweden
Thus any proper scientific debate about the climate is viewed as a “culture war”. Contributors to ISD’s report were the Center for Analysis of Social Media Technology, Conscious Advertising Network (CAN), Climate Nexus, Eco-Bot.Net, Friends of the Earth, Purpose, Stop Funding Heat and an organization with the telling name of Reset Australia. Special recognition goes to individuals Paula Matlach, Kata Balint, Cecile Simmons, Sara Bundzten, and Melanie Smith for their efforts in ISD’s Climate War Room.
Critics have wondered why they need a “war room” to defend their claims about climate change. Some have argued that the truth stands on its own two feet, while the lie must be protected by propaganda and legislation.
Climate propaganda has failed
The summary of the ISD’s report consists of 16 pages and states with ill-concealed frustration that what they consider to be “misinformation” and “disinformation” on social media in every way surpasses what they call “verified content”, i.e. the opinions offered. Even worse from their point of view is that this happens even when the tightly held and censored platforms of the tech giants work to promote the fake climate narrative of the globalists. In short, the ISD can be said to have conceded defeat in the establishment’s propaganda war against the populations of Europe.
ISD writes how they go about measuring the impact on the internet and who they consider a threat to their climate narrative, and that they admit that these opponents, despite a rigged game plan, have defeated them. We can read that “From October 31 – November 12, 2021, ISD tracked posts produced by Facebook’s Climate Science Center [official climate science center] and attempted to compare these against accounts that have registered as climate skeptics, such as Breitbart London, Spiked Online, Net Zero Watch, GB News and the Heartland Institute.
Internal dissent
The report then identifies several of the dissenting voices they call “super-spreaders” of climate misinformation, acknowledging that they often come from scientific or academic backgrounds. We read that “Network analysis by Graphika [analytics company that uses AI to monitor online activity] of 16 accounts ‘super-spreaders’ of climate misinformation on Twitter revealed 13 subgroups, largely converged around anti-science and conspiracy communities in key countries (US , UK, Canada). Many influencers [opinion makers] in this space usually come from scientific or academic backgrounds and some were previously involved in the green [environmental] movement. From 25 October to 21 November 2021, tweets and quote-tweets from the 16 accounts mentioned above garnered a total of 507 000 likes and retweets (‘interactions’) on the climate narrative alone. This includes individuals such as Michael Shellenberger, John Stossel, Björn Lomborg and Patrick Moore”.
The globalist think tank thus admits that those they call “anti-scientific” and conspiratorial are not only scientists themselves, but also from the green movement that the globalists created to advance their agenda. That is, the people who once trumpeted the globalists’ narrative and then realized for various reasons that it was wrong. Generally speaking, it usually takes a lot for a political activist, for the few who get involved at such a level, to choose to change sides.
One of these is none other than Greenpeace icon and co-founder Patrick Moore. In a startling interview last November, Moore decimated the establishment’s climate narrative on alleged global warming. He explained how he left Greenpeace when he felt that the globalist-controlled environmental movement had “abandoned science and logic in favor of emotion and sensationalism”. He alleged that supposed science and unverifiable claims were being used to deceive the public that there was a “looming climate catastrophe”. The former climate activist unequivocally declared: “The last thing we need to worry about is the world getting too warm” and that “It’s obvious that’s not true”. His words that must have alarmed top level globalists.
Swedish blogger singled out
Already in the report’s table of contents, six names are listed in alphabetical order, which are considered extra troublesome, and which are then reviewed on the following eight pages. The first is, interestingly enough, the Swedish freelance journalist and blogger Peter Imanuelsen who writes and tweets under the pseudonym “Peter Sweden”.
ISD described the Swede as a representative of a counter-movement against the globalists’ broader agenda and already in the first paragraph the report tries to vilify him.
On page 65, four of Imanuelsen’s allegedly malicious tweets are reproduced, one of which, dated November 4, 2021, reads as follows: “I am more concerned about global tyranny than global warming. Tyranny is happening right now before our eyes.”
About Imanuelsen, the ISD whines that “the repeated framing of climate action as ‘communism’ or ‘global tyranny’ may also prove an underlying subtle anti-Semitism, to tie into recent conspiracies such as The Great Reset that play on making ‘Jewish elites ‘ to scapegoats”.
The infamous book and globalist manual, COVID-19: The Great Reset, is curiously described in the report as a “conspiracy”, despite the fact that it was written by none other than Klaus Schwab, the founder and chairman of the powerful globalist organization World Economic Forum.
The globalists are also upset that “Peter Sweden” is retweeted by several famous people. They mention, among others, Thierry Baudet, party leader of the Dutch Forum for Democracy, Martin Daubney, deputy party leader of the British Reclaim Party, Monica Crowley, former US deputy finance minister, and Australian senator Malcolm Roberts.
Imanuelsen responded to the claims on his blog on June 17. He noted that “the report is being made to …/ press Big Tech to carry out even more censorship of dissidents”. He added: “The fact that the climate fanatics are trying so hard to try to censor and deplatform me for my views only proves my point that they are communists. If you want to censor people’s free speech, you are a communist and promote dictatorship – not democracy.”
The ISD is registered in the UK and has offices in five capital cities; Amman in Jordan, Berlin in Germany, London in the UK, Paris in France and Washington DC in the USA. It has an International Advisory Board consisting of six members, including the Swedish political scientist and terror expert Magnus Ranstorp. Since 2005, he has been a lecturer at the Center for Asymmetrical Threat and Terrorism Studies (CATS) at the University of Defense in Stockholm. ISD is financed by no less than three Swedish authorities; The Ministry of Justice, the Swedish Migration Agency and MSB. Swedish tax money thus goes to pay the globalists’ influence campaigns against Swedes.
‘Experts’ and representatives from law enforcement agencies in France, Great Britain, Sweden and Germany are seen discussing ‘hate’ and ‘extremism’ in London on March 9-10, 2022. It took place within one of ISD’s countless projects, Strong Cities Network (SCN) which claims to want to ‘influence global policy at the highest level’ and offers a database of ‘extremist threats’ in various cities.

Care prompts bishops to criticize transgender ideology
The Catholic bishops of the Scandinavian countries presented an open five-page letter criticizing transgender ideology on March 21, just before Easter. The document primarily expresses care and advice and was read aloud in Catholic churches in Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland. Cardinal Anders Arborelius, Bishop of Stockholm, is one of the signatories of the document.
Brits Forced to Live in Darkness and Cold
Food prices are rising at a furious pace, fastest in Scotland in almost half a century. At the same time, energy prices are at record highs. People are forced to choose between freezing or going hungry, and a majority of Scots are forced to live in cold and darkness to cope with bills. Old generations' tricks for saving and keeping warm are returning. Nevertheless, it is feared that 10,000 Brits will die of cold homes this winter. We present the Swedish Public Health Agency's guidelines on indoor temperature. Governments in Europe are introducing rationing and monitoring of food purchases. Net-zero emissions are a lie that, in practice, de-industrializes the West and dramatically lowers our standard of living.
Thousands of Flemish farmers block roads in Brussels against nitrogen policy
BrusselsMore than 2500 farmers from Belgium's Dutch-speaking Flanders region gathered at Brussels' central Arts-Loi street and blocked roads with tractors toward Brussels to protest the regional government's plan to limit nitrogen emissions.
Orban: EU energy sanctions costing citizens billions
BudapestHungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has warned that some western states could soon send troops to Ukraine. He also criticized the fact that the EU sanctions against Russia had cost Hungarian taxpayers tens of billions of euros.
Italy: New leader of the Social Democrats is one of Soros’ ‘preferred politicians’

UK greenhouses shut down due to high energy costs
LondonIn Great Britain, a particularly depressing facet of the crisis is now showing its first contours - and thus anticipating what is likely to happen in other European countries in the near future: because of the exploding energy prices, agriculture is being strangled and fresh produce has to be rationed.
Lisbon opens borders to all Portuguese speakers
LisbonNot only the German and Italian governments keep opening new paths for immigration. Portugal, too, has opened a Pandora's box and is paving the way for possibly millions of non-European immigrants to the EU – something which is not mentioned by the mainstream media.
Illegal immigration to Italy has reached its highest level ever
RomeIn Italy, despite the overwhelming right-wing electoral success in September, there is still nothing to be seen of the promised asylum turnaround – on the contrary. Giorgia Meloni has been in office for five months, but the arrivals of migrants in Italy have doubled compared to the previous year.
Dismantling diplomacy with ‘feminist foreign policy’
BudapestGerman Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock (Greens) wants to counter German security issues abroad with feminist politics. Gender training, LGBTQ events and quotas are now part of their new guidelines, which are intended to bring about "cultural change". The German ambassador to Hungary, Julia Gross, provided an embarrassing example.
Germans demand investigation of Nord Stream sabotage
BerlinAfter the sensational revelations by US investigative reporter Seymour Hersh about the perpetrators of the Nord Stream attacks on September 26, 2022, the German government has remained silent. It does not want to comment on Hersh's research results, according to which the pipelines were blown up by Americans and Norwegians.
