Across the UK, in Holland and as far away as 
India and New Zealand farmers are protesting. 
Here, DEFRA’s new ‘environmental’ requirements 
known as 
<https://defraenvironment.blog.gov.uk/2023/11/29/biodiversity-net-gain-guidance-what-you-need-to-know/>Biodiversity 
Net Gain require farmers to take abut 15% of land 
out of production putting many who are surviving 
on slim profit margins out of business and off the land.

The spin is that farming is incompatible with 
wildlife, but the sinister end result is upland 
and downland, pasture and arable land are 
becoming just tens of thousands of acres of 
distressed assets forced to market to be snapped 
up by private equity. Hang on. Farming, after 
all, and the surplus food it provides, formed the 
basis, 4,000 or so years ago, of civilisation.

This is particularly worrying because it  appears 
to have been pre-meditated, so well-planned. 
Though post-WWII industrial agriculture is less 
so, traditional non-pesticide, non chemical 
fertiliser farming with horses, before the 1930s, 
always left plenty of space for wildlife. Indeed, 
until 2022 there was a rising charity, The 
Countryside Restoration Trust (CRT), founded by 
journalist Robin Page, championed the integration 
of farming and wildlife. This was 
<https://tlio.org.uk/monkton-wyld-community-new-trustees-at-another-uk-charity-attempt-to-to-oust-founders/>destroyed 
in a 2021 hostile takeover which arguably killed 
heartbroken Robin Page who’d seen his life’s work wrecked by brigands.

China and the developing world have roundly 
beaten Western Finance Capitalism at its own game 
. But blocked economically and militarily, where 
will the West’s voracious rent-seekers turn? The 
answer is, of course, to consolidate their 
domestic monopolies, domestic Small and Medium 
Enterprises (SMEs) and asset owners. Quietly 
placing family farmers right in the crosshairs.

Emacs!



Old markets, squeezed dry, are 
<https://unlimitedhangout.com/2024/04/investigative-reports/debt-from-above-the-carbon-credit-coup/>rebranded 
as new markets in ‘Carbon Credits’, then, which 
King Charles personally benefits in terms of

wind and 
<https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-41901175>carbon 
trading regulation. But these are nothing but a 
great deception, a sophisticated excuse for 
global elite asset managers and high-priests of 
globalisation
 to privatise the earth and bring 
in formalised digital human slavery.

The second great land-grabbing wave of enclosure 
has begun. This time its not the aristocracy, but 
<https://old.bitchute.com/video/mlGKutbgByo4/>Blackrock, 
Vanguard, the new kings on the block, private equity cartels.

Some say 
<https://www.philosophyforlife.org/blog/accelerationism-amphetamine-philosophy-and-the-death-trip>Accelerationism, 
fathered by 21st century Nietzschean philosopher 
Nick Land, has the Western World in its spell.

up with ‘solutions’ to each, for the public, that just make things worse.

So, from a cosy little cottage near 
<https://www.monbiot.com/2023/08/01/the-door-is-that-way/>Totnes, 
Devon, George Monbiot and Rebecca Wrigley’s 
forked-tongues chime out that,

1: Introduction to this working paper
This working paper considers a marked recent 
increase in local “rewilding” initiatives using 
the example of Cornwall and examines how they 
are/may be driven by a wider global agenda.
Representative text extracts from readily 
available public sources are arranged into a 
broadly chronological order. This presents an 
overall picture of the key initiatives that are 
part of a global agenda including “rewilding” and 
their impacts from global down down to local 
level. These quoted text extracts are highlighted in Italics.
Links are provided against many of the 
representative text extracts to allow deeper enquiry.
(CAPITAL NOTES IN BRACKETS) offer comment and 
queries for the reader to consider.
Underlined and/or in bold in the text extracts 
where introduced and considered of particular 
significance are: Names – of individuals and 
organisations, Policies, Initiatives etc

2: “Rewilding”
2.1 What is “Rewilding”
Wikipedia: 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rewilding_(conservation_biology)>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rewilding_(conservation_biology)
Definition: “Rewilding” , or re-wilding, 
activities are conservation efforts aimed at 
restoring and protecting natural processes and 
wilderness areas. Rewilding is a form of 
ecological restoration with an emphasis on 
recovering the geographically specific set of 
ecological interactions and functions that would 
have maintained ecosystem dynamics prior to human 
influences. This may require active human intervention to achieve.”
Origin: “The word “rewilding” was coined by 
members of the grass roots network Earth First!, 
appearing in print by 1990, and was refined and 
grounded in a scientific context by conservation 
biologists Michael Soulé and Reed Noss. According 
to Soulé and Noss, rewilding is a conservation 
method based on “cores, corridors, and 
carnivores.” The concepts of cores, corridors, 
and carnivores were developed further in 1999. 
Dave Foreman, Earth First! co-founder, 
subsequently wrote 
about rewilding as a conservation strategy”.
Note: Earth First! co-founded by Dave Foreman, 
referred to in the Wikipedia extracts above, has 
been described as an extreme Eco-Terrorist group. 
As set out below in the timeline section Dave 
Foreman wrote the influential “The Wildlands 
Project” published by The Club of Rome in 1992 
which is substantially about Rewilding and the 
intrinsically necessary management of the human 
population . Recommendations in the “The 
Wildlands Project” are foundational to current 
global Rewilding Policies embodied in the likes 
of Agenda2030 “The Sustainable Development Goals” 
which is signed up to by 178 Governments 
worldwide. The foundational 1992 The Wildlands 
Project’s recommendations for rewilding go hand 
in hand with radical control of human populations 
into just 25% of the land including relocation into “Sustainable” cities.

2.2 Summary: On the face of it some degree of 
selective “Rewilding” proposals in their own 
right seems a perfectly reasonable option to 
consider to address loss of flora, fauna and 
habitat arising from human activities such as 
historic and ongoing clearance of original wild 
forests and other habitats to allow for 
agricultural land use, urbanisation and resource 
exploitation along with hunting mostly larger 
wild animals to extinction as either food sources or if perceived as dangerous.
This brief study however concludes that the 
current global to local “rewilding” imperative 
substantially arises from the global United 
Nations (UN)’s Agenda2030 “The Sustainable 
Development Goals” and in particular Sustainable 
Development Goal 15 (SDG15) “Life on Land”.
Agenda2030 is supported by it’s 178 signatory 
world Governments who are bound to implementing 
all 17 SDGs. This appears to be integrated with 
other global initiatives of The World Economic 
Forum (WEF) such as the “The 4th Industrial Revolution” and “The Great Reset” .
A key part of advocating and advancing 
implementation of this overall global agenda 
globally down to local level , including 
rewilding, is through the “Strategic Partnership 
Framework” signed in 2019 between the UN and the WEF .
The UN, WEFand signatory world Governments, along 
with private and public stakeholder organisations 
and individuals are due to meet in September 2023 
to discuss how to accelerate delivery of this 
overall global agenda some aspects of which involve rewilding.
The “rewilding” element of Agenda 2023 SDG 15 
“Life on Land” appears to have evolved from being 
fundamentally founded on the extreme rewilding 
recommendations embodied in the 1992 Wildlands 
Project, published as noted earlier by The Club 
of Rome and written by Dave Foreman co-founder of 
Earth First! The later organisation also as noted 
earlier being regarded as among the most extreme eco-terrorists of the time.
The Club of Rome, publisher of the Wildlands 
Project is said to express a desire for One World 
Government. The World Economic Forum have also 
promoted One World Government. The United Nations 
(UN) who it has been said are increasingly moving 
in some respects toward being a component of a 
One World Government approach(eg UN 
Secretary-General’s remarks at the 2017 World 
Government Summit : 
<https://www.un.org/youthenvoy/2017/02/secretary-generals-remarks-world-government-summit-qa/>https://www.un.org/youthenvoy/2017/02/secretary-generals-remarks-world-government-summit-qa/.)
None of these bodies are elected or accountable 
to the people and there appears to be little 
opportunity or offer of public consultation on 
the Agenda 2030 measures, including Rewilding, or 
the seemingly related “4th Industrial Revolution” or “Great Reset” measures.”
2009 December Telegraph “There’ll be nowhere to 
run from the new world government” 
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/columnists/janetdaley/6845967/Therell-be-nowhere-to-run-from-the-new-world-government.html)
2010 May Martin Edward. One World Governance – A 
Common Purpose? “[Would these global agreements] 
sweep away any consideration of what was once 
assumed to be the most basic principle of modern 
democracy: that elected national governments are 
responsible to their own people – that the right 
to govern derives from the consent of the 
electorate. There’ll be nowhere to run from the 
new world government.”

3. Organisations central to understanding current Rewilding initiatives:
3.1 The World Economic Forum (The WEF)
World Economic Forum (WEF) – From Wikipedia March 
13, 2022: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Economic_Forum 
: The World Economic Forum (WEF) is an 
international non-governmental and lobbying 
organisation
.founded on 24 January 1971 by 
German engineer and economist Klaus Schwab. The 
foundation is mostly funded by its 1,000 member 
companies – typically global enterprises with 
over US$5 billion in turnover, & views its own 
mission as “improving the state of the world by 
engaging business, political, academic, and other 
leaders of society to shape global, regional, and industry agendas”.
Also: North Western Research Institute (NWRI) 
“The Forum suggests that a globalised world is 
best managed by a self-selected coalition of 
multinational corporations, governments and civil 
society organizations ..which it expresses 
through initiatives like the “Great Reset”. ” 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=za4Q8WXI4vQ>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=za4Q8WXI4vQ 
https://nwri.org/world-economic-forum/
Rewilding is listed on the World Economic Forum’s 
website. The WEF say: “..In the future, food will 
be produced more intensively in fewer areas”, and 
“less productive land will be used for 
rewilding”, 
<https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2022/10/what-is-rewilding-nature/>https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2022/10/what-is-rewilding-nature/ 
“Rewilding has gone global, and rewilding 
projects are growing in more than 70 countries 
across Asia, Africa, Europe, Australia, Latin 
America and North America.” “The Global Rewilding 
Alliance, which was created in 2020, says 
rewilding the Earth will “stabilize the climate, 
halt mass extinction, and reduce the risks of new 
pandemics”. (THE LATTER COMMENT REF PANDEMICS 
SEEMS BIZARRE? – DOES IT HINT AT THE COVID19 
‘PANDEMIC’ BEING LINKED TO THE WEF AND THEIR GREAT RESET?)
1992 – ongoing. The WEF has claimed to be able to 
insert it’s Young Global Leaders (YGLs) into 
world Governments to deliver WEF policies 
(presumably including Rewilding). Already in the 
first year of WEF’S Young Global Leaders 
(YGL)training programme, 1992, a number of highly 
influential candidates were elected. Among 200 
selected were global profiles such as Angela 
Merkel, Tony Blair, Nicolas Sarkozy, Bill Gates, 
Bono, Richard Branson (Virgin), Jorma Ollila 
(Shell Oil), and José Manuel Barroso (President 
of the European Commission 2004–2014) (Personal 
conversation has suggested that around half of 
the current members of the Cabinet of the current 
British Parliament may be WEF trained YGLs.) 
Klaus Schwab, head of the World Economic Forum, 
has claimed that the WEF have penetrated many 
world government cabinets:

https://expose-news.com/2022/01/05/ernst-wolff-world-economic-forum/
2030 March The Expose News: “Obscured by 
noble-sounding verbiage, the text of the World 
Economic Forum’s Agenda 2030 hides a hideous 
truth. When you look past the “sustainable 
development” jargon, it’s clear they want to take 
away your goods, such as electrical appliances, 
motor vehicles and even property rights.”

2023 February Video: “Whitney Webb | What is the 
World Economic Forum?” Investigative journalist 
Whitney Webb reveals the inner workings of the 
World Economic Forum (“WEF”), the driving force 
behind The Great Reset. “The World Economic Forum 
(WEF) plays a significant role in guiding 
international developments in the interests of 
the business community.” ..”These are dreams 
where the powerful stay powerful, and the 
underclasses continue to toil and suffer. ..to 
solidify corporate control over the governments’ 
of the world”. 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=za4Q8WXI4vQ>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=za4Q8WXI4vQ

3.2 The United Nations (The UN)
The United Nations, referred to informally as the 
UN, is an intergovernmental organization whose 
stated purposes are to maintain international 
peace and security, develop friendly relations 
among nations, achieve international cooperation, 
and serve as a centre for harmonizing the actions 
of nations 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations
“Within the UN’s Sustainable Policy, which 
Britain has adopted, we find the objective to 
remove private ownership whilst at the same time 
we also find the objective to re-wild the 
countryside – the UN envisions that most of the 
people in the world will be living in cities by 2050.”
2021 September Expose news: “Building an Empire – 
The United Nations Using the World Economic Forum 
to Roll Out Its Agenda”. “A key facet of that 
action plan is to push the agenda down to the 
most local levels in society. There are multiple 
paths and they all lead to a ‘One World 
Government’. ” 
<https://expose-news.com/2021/09/14/building-an-empire-the-united-nations-using-the-world-economic-forum-to-roll-out-its-agenda/>https://expose-news.com/2021/09/14/building-an-empire-the-united-nations-using-the-world-economic-forum-to-roll-out-its-agenda/ 
“
as explained in James Jaeger’s documentary 
(below). Although it’s lengthy at 2.5 hours, it’s 
well worth watching as it gives a deeper 
understanding of the Agenda, how it’s being 
implemented and its local and global impact. 
While watching you will find you are able to draw 
parallels to what is happening in your own 
locality.” 2020 July James Jaeger’s documentary 
“UNSUSTAINABLE – The UN’s Agenda For World 
Domination” 
<https://archive.org/details/2020-unsustainable-the-uns-agenda-for-world-domination>https://archive.org/details/2020-unsustainable-the-uns-agenda-for-world-domination. 
“The UN says “sustainable development” is simply 
the “Environmental Movement” reconfiguring the 
planet into a safe, green world. Others maintain 
it’s the forced inventory and control of all 
land, water, minerals, plants, animals, building 
projects and human beings on the planet. In other 
words, a blueprint for what many fear could morph 
into a totalitarian World Government. So what’s 
the real agenda behind Agenda 21?” . 2.5 hours 
long, it gives a deeper understanding of the UN 
and it’s agenda, how it’s being implemented and 
its local and global impact. While watching you 
are able to draw parallels to what is happening 
in your own locality.” (Including Rewilding initiatives.)

3.3 The 2019 Strategic Partnership Framework 
between The WEF and The UN to deliver Agenda 2030 
“The Sustainable Development Goals”,globally down 
to locally (including SDG15 and Rewilding) .
2019 June The United Nations (UN) and The World 
Economic Forum (WEF) signed the “Strategic 
Partnership Framework” between them to accelerate 
the implementation of UN Agenda 2030 which under 
it’s Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG15) 
titled “LIFE ON LAND” promotes Rewilding. 
. 
Agenda 2030 is a ..”global movement, co-ordinated 
through a global to local action plan.” A key 
facet of that action plan is to push the Agenda 
down to the most local levels in society. This 
would include pushing Rewilding (under SDG15) 
from globally down to locally – eg in Cornwall.
2021 September Expose News. “The United Nations 
(“UN”) “unites” the governments of 193 countries 
of the world. The World Economic Forum (“WEF”) 
“unites” 1,000 of the world’s largest 
corporations. The two are joined by a strategic 
partnership to implement the UN’s Sustainable 
Development Goals of Agenda 2030. An agenda which 
aims to control every aspect of our lives.”

(UN/WEF Strategic Partnership Framework in the 
embedded video from approx -9.5minutes)
In the late ’90s at the World Economic Forum 
annual meeting, the then-head of the UN, Kofi 
Annan, essentially said that the World Economic 
Forum had been in part responsible for what he 
referred to as a silent revolution at the UN, 
where the UN, instead of championing the public 
sectors of the world (which is how most people 
think of the UN) they would instead begin to 
prioritise the needs of the businesses of the 
world 
 multinational corporations 
 over the 
past several decades the World Economic Forum 
being a major part of this. The United Nations 
has been pushed to essentially prioritise corporate needs over public needs.
2022 October Expose News. The U.N. & World 
Economic Forum are using each other to implement 
‘Agenda 2030’ & ‘The Great Reset’ “The United 
Nations (“UN”) “unites” the governments of 193 
countries of the world. Whilst the World Economic 
Forum (“WEF”) “unites” 1,000 of the world’s

a strategic alliance 
WEF entered into with the United Nations (“UN”) 
in 2019, which called for the UN to “use 
public-private partnerships as the model for 
nearly all policies that it implements, most

sustainable development goals, sometimes referred 
to as Agenda 2030”.”(which includes Rewilding)

4. Timeline of key Rewilding related initiatives
4.1 1970s to 1990s: Foundational elements of current Rewilding initiatives
1972 “Limits of Growth” Report – published by The 
Club of Rome (see introduction for comment ref 
CoR aims of eg Global Government). Main author 
Dennis Meadows is an honorary member of the Club 
of Rome and a member of the World Economic Forum. 
The Limits to Growth is a 1972 book about the 
computer modelling of exponential economic and 
population growth with finite resource supplies. 
Funded by the Volkswagen Foundation and 
commissioned by the Club of Rome 
<https://archive.org/details/TheLimitsToGrowth/mode/2up>https://archive.org/details/TheLimitsToGrowth/mode/2up 
It advocates an up to 86% reduction in human 
population (without saying how) The impacts from 
too large a human population are established in 
this report and appear to remain part of the 
underlying arguments around rewilding. 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_to_Growth>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_to_Growth 
: After reviewing their computer simulations, the 
research team came to 
. conclusions 
(including):”It is possible to alter these growth 
trends and to establish a condition of ecological 
and economic stability that is sustainable far 
into the future. The state of global equilibrium 
could be designed so that the basic material 
needs of each person on earth are satisfied and 
each person has an equal opportunity to realize 
his individual human potential.” The introduction 
goes on to say: ” These conclusions are so 
far-reaching and raise so many questions for 
further study that we are quite frankly 
overwhelmed by the enormity of the job that must 
be done.” (THE UNEXPECTED ORIGIN OF THE ‘CLIMATE 
CRISIS’ “Jeffery Jaxen takes a deep dive into the 
origin of the ‘climate crisis’ narrative, 
highlighting the Club of Rome’s hand..) – 
‘Climate Change’ is widely presented as among the 
justifications for Rewilding. Includes background 
to Club of Rome coming to publish the Limits of 
Growth & reference to selection of ‘Climate 
Change’ as a possible justification for 
establishing global government. 
<https://thehighwire.com/ark-videos/the-unexpected-origin-of-the-climate-crisis/>https://thehighwire.com/ark-videos/the-unexpected-origin-of-the-climate-crisis/)
1973 A Thames Television UK documentary on the 
Club of Rome’s The Limits to Growth explained 
that “only through complete control of societies 
can catastrophe be avoided and that a coming 
revolution should be planned.” 
<https://archive.org/details/limits-to-growth-documentary-1973>https://archive.org/details/limits-to-growth-documentary-1973
Video of Dennis Meadows in 2017 talking about 
Limits of Growth (45 yeas after it’s publication 
& reasserting the Limits to Growth report’s 
recommendations): 
<https://youtu.be/Dbo6uvJBtZg>https://youtu.be/Dbo6uvJBtZg 
The video shows Meadows musing over his hopes 
that the population reduction by 86% of the world 
population could be accomplished peacefully under 
a “benevolent” dictatorship. He said: “We could 
have eight or nine billion, probably, if we have 
a very strong dictatorship which is smart 
 and 
[people have] a low standard of living 
 But we 
want to have freedom and we want to have a high 
standard of living so we’re going to have a 
billion people. And we’re now at seven, so we 
have to get back down. I hope that this can be 
slow, relatively slow and that it can be done in 
a way which is relatively equal, you know, so 
that people share the experience.”
Expose News – MARCH 2023 Retrospective review: 
“The Limits to Growth is deeply flawed yet 
advocates used it to claim societies need to be 
completely controlled to avoid catastrophe. It 
may have been the first computer model and the 
first to fuse global temperature with variables

1976 UN Conference on Human Settlement. Principle 
of “Sustainable Development” publicly aired in 
effect the principle of state control over private property for wider good.
1987 Our Common Future Report (commonly known as 
The Brundtland Report) was published. (UN had in 
1983 appointed an international commission to 
propose strategies for “Sustainable Development” 
and it had originally been written by the 
International Union for Conservation of Nature 
(IUCN) in Switzerland.). The term Sustainable 
Development was first introduced to the world in 
the pages of a 1987 report “Our Common Future” 
produced by the United Nations World Commission 
on Environmental and Development, authored by Gro 
Harlem Brundtland, VP of The World Socialist 
Party. The term was first offered as official UN 
policy in 1992, in a document called UN 
Sustainable Development Agenda 21, issued at the 
UN’s Earth Summit, today referred to simply as 
Agenda 21. In signing, each of 178 nations pledge 
to adopt the goals of Agenda 21

Biological diversity is the subject of Chapter 15 
of Agenda 21. Agenda 21’s aim initially had been 
to achieve global sustainable development by 
2000, with the “21” in Agenda 21 referring to the 
original target of approach the 21st century 
(this was not achieved). (since directly 
translated recently into Agenda 2030 as 
Sustainable Development Goal 15. (SDG15) “Life on

“Beyond the Limits is a book continuing the 
modeling of the consequences of a rapidly growing 
global population that was started in the 1972

will require profound social and psychological 
readjustments in the developed and developing 
world.” “Current crop yields can only sustain the 
world’s population at subsistence levels,

On Page 15 of the The Wildlands Project it says: 
“We must convert (ie Rewilding) at least 50% of 
the land area of North America to Wilderness off 
limits to Human Beings.” he continues that “Those 
Core Wilderness Areas are to be interconnected by 
Wilderness Corridors also off limits to human 
beings. Those Wilderness areas are to be 
surrounded by Buffer Zones that may have limited 
resource use under the supervision and permitting 
of the Central Government in collaboration with 
Non Government Organisations (NGOs). Human 
population is to be resettled into the remaining 
25% of the land into communities described as 
“Sustainable Communities”. (NOTE: SUSTAINABLE

Bush refused to sign the Treaty but not long 
after President Bill Clinton (Al Gore was then 
Vice President ) did sign it. Key features 
include: Nations will create a sytem of protected

The Global Biodiversity Assessment Report on Page 
993 says the recently published 1992 Wildlands 
project, the controversial long-term strategy 
(100 or 200 years), (see above) is the central 
theme of protected areas
 to expand natural areas 
(ie in effect by Rewilding) to cover as much as 
30% of the US land area. (Note: ’30 by 30 ie: 30% 
by 2030 is now a key UN Sustainable Development

“On July 19, Dr. Michael Coffman, a Director of 
Maine Conservation Rights Institute, and a 
regional director for the Alliance for America, 
was in Washington talking to Senator Mitchell’s 
staff and to Senator Dole’s staff, trying to 
convince them that the Treaty would have the 
effect of making the “Wildlands Project,” the 
objective of the Treaty’s implementation. The 
study revealed the existence of a draft of the 
Global Biodiversity Assessment, required by the 
Treaty, and the identification of the “Wildlands 
Project” (which includes extensive Rewilding) as 
a primary mechanism for Treaty implementation.” 
“
..about an hour before the Senate debate, 
Voight received a call from Mitchell’s office 
reporting that the Treaty would be withdrawn.”

the World Economic Forum (“WEF”) “unites” 1,000

joined by a strategic partnership to implement 
the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals of Agenda 
2030 an agenda which aims to control every aspect 
of our lives. None of these organisations or 
companies has officials which represent the 
people. We have not elected them into office to 
govern or make decisions on our behalf. And, no 
electorate has been asked if their goals are our 
goals or if their goals will create the world we, 
the people, want. Within the UN’s Sustainable 
Policy, which Britain has adopted, we find the 
objective to remove private ownership whilst at 
the same time we also find the objective to 
re-wild the countryside – the UN envisions that 
most of the people in the world will be living in

report entitled “Nature Risk Rising. Why the 
Crisis Engulfing Nature Matters for Business and 
the Economy.” “Our research shows that $44 
trillion of economic value generation – more than 
half of the world’s total GDP – is moderately or 
highly dependent on nature and its services and 
is therefore exposed to nature loss. Together, 
the three largest sectors that are highly 
dependent on nature generate close to $8 trillion 
of gross value added (GVA): construction ($4 
trillion); agriculture ($2.5 trillion); and food 
and beverages ($1.4 trillion). This is roughly 
twice the size of the German economy. This is 
particularly bad news when put next to the 
current measurements of global warming.”

depleted nations on earth. Once, species like 
bears and wolves roamed wild but we’ve seen 
populations of our most critical species plummet 
by 60% since 1970. Agricultural intensification,

“The Global Rewilding Alliance, which was created 
in 2020, says rewilding the Earth will “stabilize 
the climate, halt mass extinction, and reduce the 
risks of new pandemics” (AN UNUSUAL CLAIM 
PERHAPS?)
 “Rewilding can help combat climate 
change and reverse species extinction, Rewilding Britain says.”
2022 December COP15 – the United Nations 
Convention on Biological Diversity (“UNCBD”) 
conference. (COP15 took place in a virtual 
format, from 11-15 October 2021. The second part 
of COP 15 was a face-to-face meeting in Kunming, 
China, from 25 April-8 May 2022.) The plan to 
“expand natural habitats and corridors to cover 
as much as 30% of the land area” as was 
originally proposed in the 1992 The Wildlands 
Project and reiterated and reinforced in the the 
1994 Global Biodiversity Assessment is what is 
currently now being called the 30 by 30 plan 
(Note: that The 1995 Global Biodiversity 
Assessment also proposes a substantial reduction 
of the world population (but did not specify how) 
. 30 by 30 is now incorporated in a so-called 
“New Deal for Nature” which will involve new 
investments or financial markets worth about $10 
trillion over this decade being created to 
provide opportunities for businesses to “engage” 
with the plan. Shortly after COP15 concluded, the 
Indigenous Environmental Network issued a 
statement which also exposed the private 
commercial interests planning to profiteer from 
“Mother Earth.”

30 by 30 has been described as: .. the biggest 
land grab in history marketed under the guise of 
“protecting biodiversity.” Survival International 
estimates that the plan will displace around 300 
million indigenous people worldwide from their 
native lands and forests in the name of 
“conservation.” And it will make a very few very rich while doing so.
2023 April An announcement has been made by the 
World Economic Forum (“WEF”) that World leaders

5. Taking Farmland Out of Food Production for 
“Climate Change” mitigation and/or Rewilding
Predicated on the claim that it will both tackle 
“Climate Change” and/or restore(rewild) nature 
there appears to be a global push for taking land 
out of food production often with a stated 
intention to restore (rewild) it to a natural 
state. This has started to be actioned relatively recently.
(NOTE: THERE HAS BEEN GROWING COMMENT THAT THE 
CONCEPT OF “MAN MADE CLIMATE CHANGE” HAS BEEN 
PROMOTED AS A JUSTIFICATION FOR GLOBAL GOVERNANCE 
OR GOVERNMENT & APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN SELECTED AS 
A (SUPPOSED)CRISIS THAT WOULD LEND JUSTIFICATION 
TO A ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT BY THE CLUB OF ROME IN 
1968 FROM SEVERAL GLOBAL CRISIS OPTION .
RECENT STUDIES HAVE CONFIRMED THE LINK BETWEEN 
CO2 AND GLOBAL WARMING – BUT SUGGESTING THAT THE 
WARMING COMES FIRST FOLLOWED LATER BY RISING CO2. 
THE PREDICTIONS OF VARIOUS COMPUTER MODELS OVER 
THE LAST 50 YEARS CAN NOW BE TESTED AGAINST WHAT 
HAS ACTUALLY HAPPENED AND MOST IF NOT ALL ARE 
INCREASINGLY BEING SHOWN TO HAVE BEEN WHOLLY 
UNRELIABLE IN PREDICTING THE PRESENT DAY 
SITUATION HENCE ARE ALSO LIKELY TO BE UNRELIABLE 
IN PREDICTING THE FUTURE AND SO WITH SUCH LOW TO 
NON EXISTENT PREDICTIVE RELIABILITY ARE UNFIT AS 
A BASIS FOR LOCAL, NATIONAL OR GLOBAL POLICY AND ACTIONS.

RIGHT AND SO IS NOT EXAMINED IN THIS WORKING

farms to STOP – EU out of feed – Meat taxes & 
chicken permits – Up to you to GROW FOOD!Even as 
Biden and Trudeau announce food shortages, 
farmers are being paid to stop farming. Chickens 
are now designated illegal animals, due to bird 
flu (diagnosed by a fraudulent PCR test), also 
justifying millions of birds being culled in the 
UK and France. The EU is culling livestock as 
they run out of animal feed, and in the UK, cows 
are being exterminated due to a lack of 
farmworkers. Meanwhile, the Netherlands is 
seriously considering a meat tax.

2023 May Democrat USA President Joe Biden’s 
“climate czar” John Kerry is calling for farmers 
to stop growing food in order to meet the 
administration’s radical “net zero” goals for 
lowering “emissions.” Kerry, Biden’s Special 
Presidential Envoy for Climate, issued the 
warning during a green agenda conference in 
Washington D.C. During the Department of 
Agriculture’s (USDA) AIM for Climate Summit, 
Kerry told the audience that “we can’t get to net 
zero, we won’t get this job done, unless 
agriculture is front and centre as part of the 
solution.” Kerry warned attendees that his and 
other world leaders’ “lives depend” on farmers 
ceasing their operations.

2023 May Expose news. John Kerry: “Destruction of 
farming is front and centre in the fight against 
climate change,” says. “Kerry’s narrative to 
starve people by cutting off their food supplies 
to save people from starving seems bizarre. But 
that’s because the agenda he’s promoting uses 
climate and greenhouse gas emissions as a 
smokescreen. 
 He was accused as far back as 2011 
of being the US Senate’s “most globalist-oriented 
insider” when he was named as one of 12 members 
of the newly formed “Super Congress.”

2020 March. Friends of the Earth wants to double 
UK woodland cover by 2050 – to tackle the climate 
emergency and make more space for nature. 
Increasing tree cover is an essential part of a 
range of measures needed to fight climate change. 
While woodland currently covers 13% of the UK, 
approximately 70% of the UK is farmland. It’s 
clear that if we’re going to double tree cover, 
some of this farmland will need to be converted 
into woodland.

trendy metropolitan eco-zealots with close ties 
to Boris Johnson are set on driving out 
traditional farming and ‘rewilding’ the land” 
“
an experiment in ‘rewilding’ ­ a trendy, but 
for some, highly controversial form of land 
management in which large areas of countryside 
are allowed to revert to nature. Popular with 
conservationists (but hated by many farmers) it 
boasts many powerful supporters in the UK. They 
believe removing land from agricultural 
production can help fight climate change and 
reverse the catastrophic decline in wildlife 
populations we have suffered in recent decades. 
Boris Johnson’s Government, currently formulating 
a farm-subsidy policy for life outside the EU, 
seems particularly keen. Indeed, large amounts of 
public money could be diverted from traditional 
farming and used to help rewild the British 
countryside.”

every week from despairing farmers and crofters 
across Scotland telling me of another farm or

Scotland’s limited productive land that shifts 
from farming to forestry, the more we are likely 
to simply offshore our emissions or even increase

livestock being repurposed to create new 
woodlands.”

2023 April Expose News: “A report produced by 
Oxford University and Imperial College London for 
the UK Government reveals that all airports will 
be ordered to close, eating beef and lamb will be 
made illegal, and construction of new buildings 
will not be permitted in order to meet the legal 
commitment of zero emissions by 2050. According 
to the report this will require the public to 
never eat beef or lamb ever again. To do this 
national consumption of beef and lamb will drop 
by 50% between 2020 and 2029. Then between 2030 
and 2049 beef and lamb will be “phased out. 
However, the timeline of events may speed up 
significantly because the Government enshrined a 
new target in law in April 2021 to slash 
emissions by 78% by the year 2035.”

5.4 Cornwall Taking Farmland Out of Food Production
2023 February Cornwall Live. “Moors plan leaves 
Cornwall farm families fearing for their 
livelihoods” Farmers in west Cornwall say they 
are being “treated like dirt” and feel not heard 
amid proposals which could see vast swathes of 
farmland taken out of production.

2022 November Cornwall Live. An area of over 
3,000 hectares stretching from St Just to St Ives 
has been earmarked for protection by Natural 
England in recognition of its national importance 
for wildlife. However, with around 13% of that 
area being farmland, some farmers on Penwith 
Moors say that new restrictions on their land 
could threaten their livelihoods, forcing them to 
sell up.

2020 June Cornwall Wildlife Trust backs new form 
of protection for the sea and call on Government 
for ambitious delivery plan for Highly Protected 
Marine Areas within a year from June 2020. “In 
Highly Protected Marine Areas, on the other hand, 
all damaging activities including fishing, 
dredging, construction and sea angling would be 
banned.”

2019 Cornwall Council report: ‘Climate Change 
Action Plan’. In the Introduction on page 4 at 
1.4 says that “..a fifth of our agricultural land 
must shift to alternative use”. On page 18 refers 
to “Cornwall’s 
 availability of grassland’s 
suitable for afforestation”. On page 26 under 5.8 
‘Balancing Interventions’ refers to “.. rewilding 
of previously managed land” (types of previous land use not specified)
2021 March Forest for Cornwall F4C 
<https://www.gov.uk/government/news/defra-announces-funding-boost-and-new-partnership-with-forest-for-cornwall>https://www.gov.uk/government/news/defra-announces-funding-boost-and-new-partnership-with-forest-for-cornwall 
Press release: Defra announces funding boost and 
new partnership with Forest for Cornwall. Funding 
boost and new woodland creation partnership 
formed between Defra and Forest for Cornwall.
2021 October “Cornwall has potential to be 
largest rewilding area in England” “Cornwall has 
the potential to lead the way in England when it 
comes to rewilding and regenerating woodlands. 
According to new findings by environmental 
charity Friends of the Earth, in partnership with 
Rewilding Britain, there are 69,598 acres of 
potential natural regeneration in Cornwall, 
making it the largest local authority in England 
for any rewilding projects. Nationally more than 
a million acres of new tree cover could be 
created simply by letting existing woodland 
regenerate and spread.” 
<https://www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwall-news/moors-plan-leaves-cornwall-farm-8094536>https://www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwall-news/moors-plan-leaves-cornwall-farm-8094536 
Analysis carried out by Tim Richards from 
TerraSullis on behalf of environmental charity 
Friends of the Earth, in partnership with 
Rewilding Britain also identified the local 
authority areas with greatest potential for 
natural woodland regeneration, which include 
Cornwall, Harrogate and Northumberland.

Currently, the six-hectare site consists of three 
fields of improved grassland. Note: Personal 
conversation with National Trust staff at the 
public consultation indicated there were other 
areas also intended for conversion to woodland as 
farm tenancies came to an end – ie when they 
would normally be renewed. It is understood that 
more farms are to be considered for large scale 
tree planting as tenant’s contracts come up for renewal.

progressive conservation strategy that goes 
beyond protecting natural areas. It aims to 
restore areas of land to their natural states.”

2023 Cabilla, Bodmin Moor – “KICK STARTING 
REWILDING”: “Natural processes will be kick 
started on the site through initial 
interventions. This will include the removal of 
sheep grazing from most of the site to allow 
vegetation to naturally regenerate. Other grazing 
animals will be introduced in low numbers to 
mimic natural grazing, including Belted Galloway 
cattle, Cornish black pigs and Dartmoor ponies. 
Internal fencing will be removed to allow animals 
to move throughout the farm. The natural 
regeneration of woodland on site, especially the 
expansion of existing ancient oak woodland and 
temperate rainforest, will be encouraged through 
changes to grazing pressure. Deer management will 
also be undertaken to reduce pressure on tree 
saplings. This will be supplemented with 
additional tree planting, with 100,000 native 
trees proposed.”

7.0 Addendum
7.1 Some comments on how rewilding can be a mechanism for wealth transfer.
Below are a few extracted comments from links 
used in the document above where financial 
benefit to “the elite” from rewilding is indicated.
30 by 30 is now incorporated in a so-called “New 
Deal for Nature” which will involve new 
investments or financial markets worth about $10 
trillion over this decade being created to 
provide opportunities for businesses to “engage” with the plan.
30 by 30 has been described as: .. the biggest 
land grab in history marketed under the guise of “protecting biodiversity.”
2021 November, The World Economic Forum estimates 
that nature is responsible for half of global GDP 
($44 trillion) and that shifting to a 
nature-positive economy in key sectors could 
create 395 million jobs by 2030.

7.2 World Human Population Reduction – “to save the planet”
Whilst human population reduction “to save the 
planet” does not seem to have reappeared formally 
in writing in UN or WEF public documents since 
activists in 1994 blocked the signing as a Treaty 
the UN’s Global Biodversity Assessment (which 
included substantial human population reduction) 
the issue has continued to be aired. For example:
2020 WEF Davos meeting: Jane Goodall, British 
Ambassador for Peace to the United Nations, at 
the WEF forum at Davos in 2020 said, “We can 
solve climate change by depopulating the earth by 
a mere 7.5 billion people. We cannot hide away 
from human population growth. Because it 
underlies so many of the other problems. All 
these things we talk about wouldn’t be a problem 
if there was the size of population there was 500 
years ago” Video:

2022 December Expose news. “Self-appointed elites 
want far fewer people in the world and they have 
wanted this for a long time” “The depopulation 
agenda has been festering behind the scenes for a 
long time and now it is coming out in the open 
and going 
mainstream.” 
<https://expose-news.com/2022/12/31/self-appointed-elites-want-far-fewer-people/>https://expose-news.com/2022/12/31/self-appointed-elites-want-far-fewer-people/
2023 May Expose news “Jane Goodall is not a 
kindly grandmother; she is a promoter of eugenics 
and reduction of the world’s population to 450 
million” “To convince the public the UN’s “30 x 
30” goal is a “good thing,” the World Economic 
Forum (“WEF”) and the World Wildlife Fund (“WWF”) 
have chosen three leading influencers – Greta 
Thunberg, Jane Goodall and David Attenborough – 
to market the ideology under the guise of a “New 
Deal for Nature.”
