Leading into the COP26 confab beginning at the end of this month in Glasgow, the COP 15 (15th Conference Of Parties) biodiversity summit opened yesterday in Kunming, China, and will continue until Friday, the 15th. Representatives of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) met in the first round of talks to discuss a post-2020 biodiversity framework to set targets for protecting ecosystems by 2030. Today, Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and other world leaders spoke by video; others are participating in person. The event, which has been rescheduled three times, is part of the green fascism campaign, through UN institutions, in which the Malthusian elites are pushing for depopulation on two tracks: 1) on the climate-change track, in the name of reducing overheating of Earth; 2) for stopping the rate of extinction of non-human life, and giving non-human creatures more space on Earth.
The organizational goal of COP15 is to get a “Biodiversity Framework” parallel to the 2015 Paris Climate Accord, to bludgeon people into submission for genocide. This week is Part 1 of the COP15 world summit process; Part 2 will be held next May in Kunming. A horrendous 12-page draft framework, released in July, gives the goalposts and the math, e.g., that by 2030, 30 percent of the Earth’s land should be locked out of human use; the area of non-human eco-systems should be expanded by 15% by 2050, etc.
To get the flavor of what’s happening here, on Klaus Schwab’s January, 2021 book on Stakeholder Capitalism, the dust jacket features gorilla-lover Jane Goodall’s comment that Schwab is great for his commitment to fighting today’s “double curse” of “climate change and biodiversity extinction.”
President Xi Jinping and China’s White Paper that was released on Oct. 9, take the high road of stressing harmony between man and nature. Xi announced, among other things, that China will set up a Kunming Fund for Biodiversity of 1.5 billion yuan (about $232 million) to help poor nations take care of their wildlands and nature. China also will upgrade its administration of nature preserves into a national park system. China has been pumping out its success in tending to elephants, the Siberian tigers, green peacocks, etc. Vladirmir Putin announced, among other things, that Russia will implement measures to protect its vast, beautiful forests.
Take a closer look at the details of the CBD Framework. On July 5, 2021, the latest draft of an intended Summit framework document was released, described as “a new global biodiversity framework, to guide actions worldwide through 2030, to preserve and protect nature and its essential services to people.” There are 21 targets and 10 “milestones” for 2030 to then become the “2050 Vision.” It’s 12 pages of Malthusian garbage, including the premises behind the wild proposal for the U.S. to lock up 30 percent of its land and water out of human productive use by 2030, and similar measures. Goals proceed from the idea that mankind (unnatural) is segregated from nature, and nature’s space on Earth, defined as “natural ecosystems", must expand in area by 15% from the present time. The rate of extinctions (of non-mankind life) must be reduced by at least tenfold, “with at least 90 percent of genetic diversity within all species maintained.”

Notably, the British Crown’s Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF) complains that the draft biodiversity agreement is “low in ambition” and “weak in several key areas, including on finance and on the drivers of biodiversity loss, Deutsche Welle reported Oct. 11. Why not kill more people? Lin Li, WWF director of global policy, demands that the new draft include “a clear and measurable global goal for nature.” While WWF supports the 30 x 30 land and oceans plan, she sighs that the “lack of a milestone to halve the footprint of production and consumption by 2030 is very concerning.” Meanwhile, Friends of the Earth demands that the framework incorporate a “rights-based approach,” guaranteeing “full and equal participation” for indigenous peoples and local communities, global equity and financing.
