Just Say No to Big Brother’s Smart Meters by Orlean Koehle
Fortunately, they were not quite able to accomplish their objectives and will have to stage more big CO2 emitting conferences in the future. From a Reuters article, December 16, 2009, it was estimated that the “carbon footprint” of CO2 emissions that were used up at this summit was the largest in history. With all the commercial and private jets flying into Copenhagen, the private limos, etc. bringing hundreds of thousands of people from over 200 countries, the emissions were over 46,200 tons of CO2, which could have taken care of 660,000 Ethiopians for one year.

For more information on the truth about CO2, I also highly recommend the book, Climate
Gate, by Brian Sussman, former weatherman and a talk show host for KSFO radio in San Francisco. The book can be ordered from
www.wndbooks.com., or on
Amazon.com.
2) Politicians Who Want to Implement “Cap and Trade” Through the Back Door?
When one considers the objectives that the SmartMeter program hopes to achieve and how similar they are to those of Cap and Trade, it makes one very suspicious that they are part of the same plan. The Cap and Trade program is designed to limit our use of energy – “to put a cap on it.”
If
an industry has exceeded its allotted use of energy, then it could be fined, or it can “trade” - buy nefarious “carbon credits’ for the amount of CO2 that it needs to go on using more energy. The Smart Meter program is also designed to limit our use of energy. If we are using too much heat or air conditioning, then your energy flow can be turned down remotely. Later when your appliances all have RF chips in them and the smart meter can “speak to them,” they can also be controlled remotely. Obama will not really have to get his controversial Cap and Trade bill passed. All that one needs to stifle and control the use of energy is all here in the SmartMeter program.
Why is Cap and Trade so Bad? The great state of California that loves to pass all sorts of environmental wacky laws, passed their own version of Cap and Trade, back in 2006. It is called AB 32 (and the Senate version - SB 17), otherwise known as the Global Warming Solutions Act, which supposedly would require all California residents to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to the 1990 level by 2020. The implementation of this law has already imposed draconian measures and regulations to lower the use of energy, increase its costs, cause loss of jobs, driven unemployment to 12.6 % and has driven millions of jobs out of the state in the process. Losing businesses and people does not seem to bother those behind Cap and Trade or the
SmartMeter program. One of the stated objectives by the U.S. Department of Energy is “Smart grid development can reduce the need for other infrastructure…It can obviate the need for many infrastructure investments. Building less is more affordable than building out.” So in other words, let’s just stop building, especially infrastructure like roads, which would entice more cars to be on the road. Let us regress, not progress, and go back to what life was like in California in 1990. Surely, that will solve all the global warming problems. Even if there were any truth to this, can one lone state in the United States lesson the use of C02 all by themselves? Contrary to how some Californians view themselves, California is not a little planet unto itself.
Quotes from President Obama about Cap and Trade and sacrifice that reveal that the whole plan is to limit the use of energy and drive up costs (the Smart Meter Program will achieve the same):
Under my plan of a Cap N Trade system, electricity would necessarily 'SKYROCKET,' even regardless of what I say about whether coal is good or bad, because I am capping
