  From the “father” of the euro: The EU is marching to its own death…

Recently, Otmar Issing—an economist and an architect of the euro—admitted the currency is doomed. He didn’t feel this way four years ago. In 2012, he said the euro could be safe if weak countries like Greece left the EU. Today, he says the currency is built on a “house of cards”…

  This critical buy signal on gold stocks has flashed only three times since 2000…

In 2003, the ratio flashed “buy”—and gold went on to double. Mining stocks went on to triple. It flashed again in late 2008. Over the next three years, gold doubled again… while mining stocks tripled.

  In 30 years, the green vegetation on planet Earth had increased by a rather extraordinary 14%…

“Global greening” is the name given to a gradual but large increase in green vegetation on the planet over the past three decades. The climate change lobby is keen to ensure that if you hear about it at all, it’s a minor thing, dwarfed by the dangers of global warming. Actually, it could be the other way around: Greening is a bigger effect than warming.

What’s responsible for this ecological good news? Rising carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere. These findings are so controversial, they’ve rarely been covered in the mainstream media. It’s perhaps the best environmental news you’ve never heard about…
