1:06:46 Some few couple a couple a couple And the ones that tune in have broken butts. It's like Bring your degenerates to no agenda, and that's what we're here for yeah, I'm broken, but girl yeah, so I found I found a lot of Interesting someone sent me this clip from CBS. I have a feeling this producer actually works at CBS We have a couple you know a lot of people who work in video production and And this is, let me just get the guy's name, because when I found out who he worked for and then I looked into this outfit, it was another one of these 501c3 companies. Not four, but three, which means you don't have to disclose your donors. But this was the biggest form 990 I've ever read, which is required
1:07:39 By the by the IRS this guy's name is M. San San Jayaan M San Jayaan is a chief scientist and I can tell the organization yet But just listen to and you remember we read the IPCC report about how to manage risk to influence adaptation of climate change Right? So in other words... But I think that there was some... it was how to manage a crisis. It was how to take a crisis and use it to leverage people going or buying all in or pushing all in on climate change... what's it... script. Yes. So this guy took the script and made this piece on CBS which is just unbelievable. Paul felt it firsthand.
1:08:30 Each and every one of our 50 states had a new record high temperature in the past 12 months. If you were born after 1985, you've never known what normal is because the last 326 months have been consistently warmer than the 20th century global average. Now, I'm sorry, but I'm just not going to buy this, but okay, we'll float with you for a second here, but you don't know what normal is. This is a very propagandistic thing to say. You have, in short, been living on a planet with a fever. I got a fever! I got a fever and my planet needs more cowbells! Whether or not we understand or accept the science of climate change, we're now almost immaterial. We're no longer talking about change to our planet at some distant time or in some faraway place, but change that is happening right here, right now, in our own backyards. In Texas, after enduring months of drought, many ranches are simply getting out.
1:09:29 They're quietly sending their cattle north. You should see the pictures of this. He literally shows guys like herding cattle up the road. Over a million head of cattle have been sent out of the state. They've been trucked to greener, wetter, cooler pastures in northern states like Montana and Nebraska. These cows won't be back. In our cities, often heat traps in the summer. The vulnerable and the elderly suffer the most. So first he's talking about America. Now he's going to move over just and bring Europe into it. In Europe, just a few years ago, over 70,000 people died, many in France, during one long, unbelievably hot summer. Because they didn't have air conditioning. That's why. Hold on a second. What is this you're playing? This is a CBS News report.
1:10:14 It's going on forever, news reports are supposed to be like 30 seconds. Well it's a package and when you find out who's behind it you'll understand how this was... Is this network? This is network, yeah, this is big time network, cbsnews.com, big time network. It's already way beyond the package limits as far as I'm concerned. Yeah but wait until you hear how this was paid for. Now he's bringing in, and this was seven years ago I think when we had that heat wave in Europe. He conveniently forgets the people who died in the freezing cold in the UK for the past four years. But okay, we'll let you slide. While these cities had plans for natural disasters, few had thought about direct heat. And the citizens and government officials were just simply caught off guard. Now the insurance industry does not have to be convinced that the change in climate is real.
1:11:05 They virtually all have strategy groups inside their companies that are assessing the risk of climate change. More violent and frequent storms, floods, and rising sea levels are at the very top of their list. Rising sea levels. State Farm won't sell insurance in Florida. Many companies are just reluctant to insure coastal properties. Because of hurricanes? Yeah. And that leaves the government and the taxpayer to foot the bill. By the way, that's an outrageous comment. That's where the danger comes in and you'll hear Obama say this later on in the show. He's saying because insurance companies won't insure it because of hurricanes, the taxpayer has to foot the bill. I think I constitutionally disagree with that statement. Look, when my insurance agent worries about something bad happening, it's probably time for me to be worried as well. Climate change is no longer an issue for the future.
1:11:59 This is our society's sink or swim moment. The science is in! Science! So this guy is a chief scientist. You ready for it? Okay. At the Nature Conservancy. Are you familiar with the Nature Conservancy? No, but I will be shortly. Oh my goodness. So this is nature.org. And I've seen many Articles from nature org I had no idea. Do you know how much money they have as reported in in? 2011 more than we're making five billion dollars This is a nonprofit with five billion dollars their total in getting it more from just nickels and dimes from the public then oh yeah, their total income is
1:12:56 for 2011 was $997 million, almost a billion dollars, of which $653 million is from grants. A lot of it, in fact, our government Receive gives them 150 million hundred forty nine million dollars But if you look at their form 990 and just go to nature dot org look at their board of directors You'll see these the board the board of directors all making three four hundred thousand dollars a year The CEO of the president and everybody the way this to me this is the biggest lobbying organization that I've ever seen and
1:13:39 Except they're a non-profit and they get money from universities from land trust just from and they own land this I had never I had no idea about these guys five billion dollars and You just you just look at where all the money is coming from if it's mind-boggling their salaries for 2011 271 million dollars they paid in salaries alone. That's what they paid out and Yeah, you don't need to be a profitable company if you just want to score money. Director and President Mark Tersek makes $493,000 a year. I mean, everyone's making two to three hundred grand, even the acting chief philanthropy officer. It's just crazy. And then they have, here's what they pay to outside consultants. Marge Whitman I see is on here. Maggie's there.
1:14:38 Cornerstone Partners, they paid them $2 million to manage their investments. Donor Services Group, $1.4 million. Coastal Environments Inc. I mean, I didn't have enough time in the day to look at all of these organizations that are involved with this. This is huge. Now what they paid out, they only paid out $118 million. on their fundraising events, so they get grants but they also do fundraising events. They lost half a million dollars on their fundraising events because it was basically just parties. So they had gross receipts, two million, less charitable contributions, and then the actual expenses minus $502,000, $502,915.
1:15:32 And then you just see where all this money comes from. World Wildlife Fund gives them $770 million. Arizona Land and Water Trust. This has got to be a huge... And they spend money on lobbyists. It's just... I'd never... Nature.org! I mean, I read articles from them all the time. I didn't know that this was a huge propaganda machine. $5 billion. They've got hedges. Morgan Stanley does their hedge fund. Doesn't say how much and of course except for the grants from universities all the universities give money to them. There's no No names of donors, and these are the people now propagating their formula M Sanjeevan so when you figure you see yeah, they got to be buying commercials I mean this is bought and paid for so that was a package on CBS yes and
1:16:38 And I have the form 990 from the South in the show notes. 410.nashownotes.com if you want to take a look at it. Yeah, that's the only way you get anything out of this. The Science Conservation by Design, the Science Council is theirs. Our Science Conservancy's board membership includes several highly regarded scientists, I would hope. Well, like this guy. I don't see him listed. The Science Council members are John Rodriguez of the Venezuelan Institute for... He's in the form 990. I think he makes $230,000 a year. Gretchen Daly at Stanford? Yeah, oh yeah, Stanford gives a couple hundred grand a year. How come they're not giving it to their students? No, they're taking it from their students. Don't you understand? They have no money because they're giving it to these guys. Five billion dollars they've got. Five billion dollars!
1:17:41 And look at the board. It's all Goldman Sachs, Morgan, JP Morgan Chase. It's all bankers. This is a big banker ripoff. Totally. Yeah. But really well done. And it's all under nature.org. It sounds so groovy. Habitats, regions, urgent issues. Yeah. Urgent issues they spent some money for this website. This is not a slouch of a website It has loaded with stuff and great pictures. There's a picture on urgent issues of a bunch of people moving mud Line of them. Hey man moving moving mud is good because you can make cakes out of that in Haiti, but they eat mud cakes one of the things is migratory birds are priceless part of our heritage. They're beautiful and
1:18:32 They reflect the health of our environment and they are economically important. Preserving and protecting bird habitat has always been a core part of the Conservancy's mission. Really? And you know who else gives them money? Duck blinds in Fairfield? What are you talking about? Ducks.org gives them money too. Ducks.org gives them $75,000 a year. Ducks.org. This is just a money sink. How are people getting suckered into giving them money? Well, it's our taxes that are paying for a large portion of it. Well, not in comparison, but I think it's... There's somebody here that's a salesperson that is just... It would be worth protégéing yourself to her. I mean, the guy's got to be a genius. It's got to be one. And he won't be the top guy, it'll be one of the guys just underneath.
1:19:25 There's always the case. There's a couple of geniuses on there. It's a big drinking club, of course. Oh, yeah. Yeah, they spend by the money. They spend half a million on the parties. Oh, they spend more, but they lost half a million on the parties. Right. So you got to be spending tons of money on the parties. Right. Yeah. Just got to be a great club. Yeah. And guess what? We're not in it. No. No. No. And after this report we will never be in it. You think? But we'll keep an eye on it. Oh yeah. So these nature.org, five billion dollars. That was very surprising to me. Like wow. It's a non-profit tech exempt charitable organization under section 501c3 of the Internal Revenue Code so when you give them money you get a tax write-off. Yep. And they get to drink better stuff. I'm sure they're drinking the good stuff already.
