The UN Agenda 21 Plan that Called for De Facto Global Travel Restrictions in 1992

[Music] in a 1992 global declaration the United Nations called for de facto global travel restrictions all in the name of saving the planet at the UN conference on Environment and development that took place in Rio de Janeiro in June 1992 178 governments from around the world saying the comprehensive global action plan called agenda 21 an essence agenda 21 as a global agenda drafted by the United Nations they served as a blueprint for the entire 21st century yes you helped me correctly in 1992 the United Nations an undemocratic global body DeRay of a plan for how the next 100 years were going to work and 178 countries from across the globe adopted from the onset today I will concentrate on one aspect of the plan the UN Agenda to restrict motorized travel in Chapter 7 titled promoting sustainable human settlement development the United Nations called on all countries to encourage non motorized modes of transport by providing safe sequoias and fit ways and Orban and suburban santos in the same section the United Nations urged all countries to adopt urban transport programs favoring high occupancy public transport the United Nations goes on to call on all countries to embark on mass media campaigns their focus the public's attention on the potential impacts of transport on the environment with the United Nations again encouraging all countries to promote the use of non motorized transport and sheer driving the United Nations has been consistent on this message over the years our 2016 report from the United Nations Environment Program advises governments to promote and invest in forms of non motorized transport particularly promoting walking and cycling as sustainable alternatives to private cars the slogan that was often used by United Nations officials in this campaign was people not cars faust with the United Nations Environment Program advising all companies to invest around 20% of those transport budgets in cycling and walking infrastructure at a national level various companies around the world have passed legislation that restricts or will restrict the private car sector and why Matthew my she's both Britain and France have passed laws that will ban the sale of diesel and petrol cars by 2040 with Breton planning on bringing the band forward to 2035 environmental groups have also called on London to have no private cars on the road by 2030 with Transport for London and I'm saying that they are investing 2.

3 billion pounds an hour tend to make walking cycling or trips on public transport I came for 80% of journeys by 2041 and view of agenda 21 does any of these steps sound familiar and 2019 Denmark supported by 10 other European nations urged the entire European Union to ban the sale of all diesel and petrol cars by 2040 and Asia Singapore has increasingly adopted more stringent laws and measures to reduce the number of private cars on its roads and increase the strength of the public transport sector buying private cars in Singapore is already expensive and restricted as citizens need to get a certificate of entitlement to even buy a car with the certificate posting on average 37 thousand US dollars to practice obviously the promotion of walking and cycling over using private cars as one way to severely restrict the ability of a person to travel as much as I enjoy both walking and cycling these activities are both costly and efficient and practically impossible when traveling over medium to long distances on a consistent basis even if you have just won the Tour de France public transport offers a little more travel options be even not as restricted by certain times and specific groups and the future a private vehicles are severely restricted the travel pattern of each non motorized citizen will be severely restricted as people will mostly travel and a very camping zone are in the residence and workplace there will be no more wild brood traps with your friends it is interesting to know they during the covert 19 pandemic traffic on British roads is at its lowest level since 1955 walking in cycling have both dropped in Britain due to the covert 19 walk them as well Yetta is interesting that one aspect of this lockdown is that people are adjusting to not using their cars as much as before further connected or not many of the object of stated by the United Nations and 1990 to have manifested themselves in a present reality was the future of travel plans of various countries aligning costly to United Nations objectives you [Music].
