Motives
A number of different, and sometimes contradictory, motives have been claimed for a conspiracy to promote the idea of global warming
A desire on the part of the United Nations and its supporters to promote a system of world government or global governance. Proponents of this theory frequently stress the role of Maurice Strong.[8]
A desire on the part of environmentalists to prevent carbon-based industrial development in Africa[27]
A desire on the part of environmentalists to promote pollution-intensive industrial development in Africa, while reducing industrial output in the United States[28]
A desire on the part of climate science researchers to attract financial support[27]
A desire by the government to raise taxes
A desire on the part of left-wing political activists to promote an agenda described by Melanie Phillips[5] as a "left-wing, anti-American, anti-west ideology which goes hand in hand with anti-globalisation and the belief that everything done by the industrialised world is wicked. The agenda to cripple this world is revealed by highly questionable assumptions made by climate modellers about likely developments in economics, technology or population movements, which affect emissions and consequent temperature predictions."
A desire on the part of conservative political leaders including Margaret Thatcher,[27][29] and Helmut Kohl[30] to promote nuclear power while attracting the political support of Green groups
A desire on the part of leftwing political leaders to promote socialism:
According to a critical special contribution written by Lawrie McFarlane in Victoria's Times Colonist, "For socialism, at least in its early form, shared those same instincts -- distrust of private enterprise, animus toward wealth, the urge to proselytize and faith in big government. And like environmentalism, it marched under the banner of a superior morality. (...) Environmentalism is neither religion nor science. It is a political mission, every bit as unquestioning as socialism in its heyday, and offering the same giddy promise to followers: The delicious prospect of being in the right, and better still, running things."[31]
Czech President Václav Klaus said that "This ideology preaches earth and nature and under the slogans of their protection – similarly to the old Marxists – wants to replace the free and spontaneous evolution of mankind by a sort of central, now global, planning of the whole world"[32]
