Globalism Vs. America Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 The Ultimate War: Globalism vs. America by Michael Shaw President, FreedomAdvocates.org Part II Agenda 21 in Sonoma County, CA August 6, 2011 You can learn to recognize the local and broader patterns and tenants of Agenda 21. This way you can fight back with insight, starting where the attack all around you is happening and where you can win – at the local level. 1 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 The Globalist invasion is occurring right under our noses. Every county in America has its local Agenda 21 implementation underway. What I am going to do for the next 45 minutes or so is demonstrate the operation of Agenda 21 in Sonoma, the Bay Area and Central California generally. 2 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) ABAG is a Council of Governments (COG) and a member of CALCOG. ABAG http://regional-communities.blogspot.com/2011_03_27_archive.html Presented by FreedomAdvocates.org 3 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 4 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 ABAG is running your city. It controls major zoning decisions, infrastructure decisions and more. FOCUS is led by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), with support from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and the Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) – in partnership with… local governments throughout the Bay Area. FOCUS has held a stakeholder forums related to the "3 Es" (Environment, Economy, and Equity) http://www.bayareavision.org/initiatives/index.html Presented by FreedomAdvocates.org Regional planning is a very major tax spending “investment.” An investment in central planning. 5 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 ABAG Energy Programs ABAG Green Communities (Partnership with PG&E) Energy Upgrade California DOE Better Buildings Program Electric Vehicles (EV) Projects http://www.abag.ca.gov/abag/events/agendas/e012110a-Item%2006.A..pdf Presented by FreedomAdvocates.org Regionalism in action. Now ABAG is in the power business. What kind of service do you think you’re going to get? Answer: shortage, by design! 6 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 If you don’t conserve, the power will go out. If you do conserve, the power will go out. We need to espouse solutions other than the two presented to us by ABAG. Water policy is following the same “Smart” approach. This is an ABAG newsletter: 7 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 http://abag.5x5t.com/abag/overview/pub/newsletter/posts/ABAG%20SM%20July-Aug2010.pdf Presented by FreedomAdvocates.org They’ll do this by monitoring – individuals and households. How? Through SMART Meters. This is why utility bills are in the midst of rapidly advancing unit costs. 8 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 ICLEI is a foreign, U.N. related political organization. Expose ICLEI. Get out of ABAG, work to disband PG&E’s governing authority.

Politicians are trained to do what the NGOs and the Sustainable “stakeholders” tell them to do. We need a new crop of politicians. 11 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 Pretty clear connection between these 2 organizations bringing in Sustainable Development Agenda 21. Indicators The Bay Area Alliance has selected a set of indicators which it is using to assess the region's progress towards achieving the vision. Working in partnership with the Northern California Council for the Community, the Bay Area Alliance established baselines and a system to collect and update data, publish reports, and create a repository of sustainability data. The inaugural report, Bay Area Indicators: Measuring Progress Toward Sustainability, http://www.abag.ca.gov/planning/baasd/baasd.html Presented by FreedomAdvocates.org 12 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 One Bay Area One Bay Area is supported by four other regional governance organizations: the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG); the federal Bay Area Metropolitan Transportation Commission; the Bay Area Air Quality Management District; and the Bay Conservation and Development Commission – all extra-Constitutional regional governmental apparatus. And we wonder why America is falling! This is an outrageous plan for 9 counties. People around the Bay Area are waking up. This spark should become a firestorm! 13 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 The “Plan” is the Bay area’s primary Agenda 21 guidebook, just like the “Local Agenda 21” guidebook that infests Santa Cruz. It is made to look so benign. But you can come to understand their meaning of terms and monitor their programs; then you can ask yourself what it is you can do about it. The globalist vision: government controlled housing, getting people out of cars, comprehensive control over human action, while jamming people like sardines so to make them into slaves. This is all in accordance with Agenda 21 Sustainability policy and objectives. 14 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 Let’s take a look at an excerpt from the United Nations’ Agenda 21. Earth Summit - Agenda 21: The United Nations Programme of Action Chapter 7 Human Settlements Promoting Transport Systems International organizations should: • Promote comprehensive planning approach • Encourage development that reduces transport demand • Adopt programmes favouring high occupancy public transport • Encourage non-motorized modes of transport by: • Providing safe cycleways and footways in urban and suburban centres in countries. Presented by FreedomAdvocates.org California is adopting these “systems” at the state and local level. Your representatives need to understand who they represent, how Agenda 21 is designed to take control over human action and what they must do to avert this. 15 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 In California, Comprehensive Planning is called Smart Growth. So what does SMART mean? Here is PG&E’s definition: SMART Specific: A defined level of program progress Measurable: All results can be tracked by staff Actionable: Action can be taken on reported progress Relevant: Direct measurements of program activities and results Timely: Results can be reported on a quarterly basis Acronym from Pacific Gas and Electric Green Communities Letter January 2010 Presented by FreedomAdvocates.org 16 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 From Smart Growth Online: 17 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 San Francisco's Trans bay Transit Center Project Epitomizes Smart Growth “We are coming together to create jobs and revitalize our economy… a new ‘Grand Central Station of the West’,” said Speaker Pelosi. “This project is the ultimate manifestation of smart growth,” said San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom. One of the most “transformational public transportation projects” in the nation. “It will soon be possible to get almost anywhere in the Golden State via public transit…” Ray La Hood http://www.smartgrowth.org/engine/index.php/news/2010/news-143 Presented by FreedomAdvocates.org The federal government has a plan for the Bay Area. They have plenty of partners to aid in the task. 18 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 Northern California Megaregion The Northern California Megaregion is designed to be comprised of Smart Growth built along transportation corridors. These corridors will be multi-modals for trucks, trains and passengers. “San Francisco + Sacramento = SanFramento” – a Megaregion encompassing the Capital Region and the Bay Area. This Megaregion is divided into the Core and the Sphere of Influence. 19 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 All in the pursuit of Agenda 21 Chapter 7 objectives. A megaregion is what One Bay Area, which is 9 counties, grows into. Regionalism metastasizes. Look into Cities 21 (www.cities21.org/conspirators.htm) 20 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 which is taking you into a Central California megaregion. Don’t stop with ICLEI, don’t stop with One Bay Area or Bay Area Open Space Council. The trap that has been set runs deep and wide. Keep your defense up. Bay Area Open Space Council To collectivize lands – take them out of private property in order to implement the Wildlands Project. 21 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 Golden Lands is an organization that wants to take control over farms from owners for open space opportuni- ties. 22 Santa Rosa, CA August 6, 2011 Implementation of the Bay Area Open Space Initiative is coming.

The report also seeks to define a tourism strategy that can improve the competitive position of Tri Valley over the long term. The report identifies several key challenges including the lack of perception the region has as a destination and that it is seen by some to be a series of communities. Additionally, the areas have significant differences between them. For example, Livermore, with its downtown area and wineries, is a very different experience to San Ramon, which generates a significant level of corporate travel. Moving forward Tri-Valley needs to consider three specific steps with regard to its assets. 1. Continue to build its brand assets in order to create value for all of the areas within the region.
