The Crisis Report - 23
The Crisis Report - 23
A Climate Change version of the “Daisy” ad. And yes, that’s a political reference.
Picture this, you’re watching the game on Sunday and an ad comes on. It seems vaguely like it might be a trailer for a science fiction movie. There’s the image of a huge asteroid in space with the earth clearly in it’s path. It’s moving forward towards the earth.
Words appear on the screen and a voice reads them;
“There’s an Apocalypse coming”
Cut to, scene of a prehistoric floodplain with herds of dinosaurs scattered about.
“They don’t realize it yet, but their world is about to end”
Cut to a T-Rex looking up at the sky and seeing a light like a bright star.
Cut to image of the asteroid impact viewed from space.
Cut to a blank white screen. Text appears. A voice reads.
“When the asteroid hit 65 million years ago, it impacted the earth with the energy of 10 billion Hiroshima class atomic bombs”
Cut to image of Hiroshima after it was bombed.
Text appears, voice reads.
“CO2 pollution in the atmosphere is forcing the the earth’s climate system to absorb the energy of an average of 5 Hiroshima class atomic bombs every second.
Cut to flash of atomic bomb going off. Repeat five times in one second in stroboscopic flashing of light.
Continue flashing in background, an image of a stopwatch flashes up.
Voice reads, “Every second, of every minute.”
An image of analog clock face flashes up.
“300 bombs every minute. 18,000 bombs every hour”
An image of wall hanging calendar flashes up, months flip by.
“432 thousand bombs every day of the year”
Stop bomb strobing effect
“Since 1995”
Fade to white screen. Image comes up showing warming of Global Oceans.
Words flash up in big letters. No voice over, just the words.
That’s 4 billion bombs worth of energy.
Words dissolve, replace with new words.
By 2045 it will be 10 Billion.
Cut to scene of T-Rex looking at the bright star in the sky.
No text but voice says,
If the dinosaurs had known it was coming for them in 22 years, do you think they would have voted for the party that wants to “build a wall”, “ban discussion of slavery” in school textbooks, and voted against Biden’s infrastructure plan.
Cut to image of Trump looking up at the sun during the eclipse.
Using a Max Headroom repeat effect play,
It’s a hoax, it’s a hoax, it’s a hoax.
Cut to black screen with words in White. No voice over.
STOP THE MADNESS
Fade out, then.
DEMOCRATS IN 24’.
Then fade in below it, the tag line.
VOTE LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT. VOTE FOR A GREEN DEMOCRAT.

I hope you liked this idea. We need memes right now for the fight ahead. The CLIMATE CRISIS has to be the ONLY issue in 24’. Because if we don't slow this down COLLAPSE will come quickly.
I want to thank my FIRST PAID SUBSCRIBER. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this expression of interest in what I’m saying. I’m struggling with depression right now and it was a light on a dark day. I will try to make it worth your investment.
Things are moving in the US/China War. I have been thinking about The Battle of Tsushima (Japanese: 対馬沖海戦, Tsushima oki Kaisen, Russian: Цусимское сражение, Tsusimskoye srazheniye), also known as the Battle of Tsushima Strait and the Naval Battle of Sea of Japan (Japanese: 日本海海戦, Nihonkai-Kaisen) a lot lately.
The US MUST defend Taiwan, we have no choice. The fastest way for the Chinese to defeat us would be to get a lot of our fleet together and then destroy it. The Battle of Trafalgar (21 October 1805) established British naval supremacy for more than 100 years.
It was the end of France as the dominant world power. It made the 19th century the Pax Britannica.
Major naval defeats can do that.
This would be a fantastic ad! And it's terrifying.
Would LOVE for someone to put this together and put it on the medias. Very well done!!!
Hi, I have problems with the Trafalgar and Tsushima examples. Even if France was a world power back then, British fleet had always been superior since the Spanish armada incident centuries ago, even before Trafalgar Nelson had already scored a major victory in The Nile, and even in what we can call the decline of the British Empire, in events such as WW2, the British fleet was still formidable and arguably the best navy at the start of the conflict and the second best navy at the end(just behind US Navy of course). Naval tradition in the British is very strong.
And Russian navy at no point in their history have been a top navy, Japan had already tested their fleet against the Chinese in the Yalu River.
We can see examples of how even in empires experiencing decline, their armed forces remain of high quality. The second example that comes to mind are The Spanish Tercios, even in the phase of decline of Spanish Empire, Tercios remained a formidable force that despite their defeat at Rocroi, they continued having some successes.
And, it kind of depends how much resilience a country has even after suffering major defeats. For example Rome. In both Punic Wars their armies and navies suffered catastrophic defeats. On the naval phase, Romans were lucky to be able to steal a Carthaginian ship, but in land defeats, such as Cannae. Rome time after time recovered and kept sending legions until Scipius defeated Carthage.
And here is my opinion as a guy that is not American.(I'm Mexican )Hope it's the same case with US Navy, given their tradition, the great commanding officers of WW2(btw, Nimitz should have had the full control of Pacific theatre, McArthur was such an overrated dumbass). As a non-american(Mexican here) that hates US interventionism, if I have to recognize something is that US has an incredible logistic capacity to deploy anywhere and their armed forces, even admitted my other NATO countries are pretty much the best. The only thing that can really defeat US is precisely the internal conflict and polarization, and also precisely the capitalist-consumerism system undermines your armed forces. Just look at the low recruitment rates. Either people is out of shape (unable to access the services that ensure their health and mainly Americans are opted to consume McDonalds garbage), or has decided that they no longer want to participate in eternal wars every decade,(and of course the shitty treatment that veterans receive when they return home after seeing things no man should see)
But, you probably know better given your past in the military as a SEAL
