COUPLES who have more than two children are being irresponsible by creating an unbearable burden on the environment, the governments green adviser has warned.
Jonathon Porritt, who chairs the governments Sustainable Development Commission, says curbing population growth through contraception and abortion must be at the heart of policies to fight global warming. He says political leaders and green campaigners should stop dodging the issue of environmental harm caused by an expanding population.
A report by the commission, to be published next month, will say that governments must reduce population growth through better family planning.

If only they could get Muslims to suscribe to this practice.
Oh, how could you ask poor minorities to subscribe to this?
These policies are for caucasian citizens only!
Welcome to Red China.
I have eleven children - two married, nine still at home, all homeschooled. Between the two married children, there are eight grandchildren, so far.
This twerp would be very unhappy with us.
Maybe he forgot the old adage, “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.”
I knew it was too much. But, after all, being in that group (causcasian citizens), it’s only natural - we’re basically selfish and self-centered, aren’t we. Imagine the gaul -— wanting to propagate our particular part of this world’s gene pool!
Too late, there are madrassa clown cars using IVF... I guess a lot of jihadis have been busy or dead.
As I tell everyone (and they laugh, give me tin hats), ‘green’ is one of the branches of eugenics.
If people didn’t see non-terminal Schiavo starved for 13 days when serial killers are fought over for lethal injection (the latter, libs will fight to death for btw), as a sign, what can I tell you.
We started putting the monster into practice, Hitler got it from us. From the Buck case, Margaret Sanger, etc.
Prepare for the Groningen Protocol for America.
Also prepare for a brisk organ market.

Planned Parenthood can groove to this tune.


Does this mean that couples that have no children, or only one child will be able to sell child credits to another couple who want to have more than two?
I actually pause to see what country is contemplating such stupid policies... in the past I could safely assume it was some suicidal european country...
I posted a comment [or tried to, it looks like new comments are not being added]: "I've got more than two children, a lot more. Should I kill the youngest ones, the oldest ones, or take them all to a eugenics doctor to get a medical opinion on which of my excess CO2 generators should be terminated?"
I wonder what the author would recommend for your excess children and for mine. I wonder who would support civilization if responsible people like us didn't raise responsible children with a work ethic and traditional values. Three cheers for you and your family; you have already done more good for our country and our future than this writer will ever accomplish.
says curbing population growth through contraception and abortion must be at the heart of policies to fight global warming.
Finally the envirofacists show their true colors. Killing human babies is the answer to global warming.
And now we have a baby killing socialist as President of the US.
May God have mercy on us all.......
Well, ya know, all the “green” people out there could throw themselves off the highest bridges to make room for more babies.
The Duggars alone would wipe out 16 “greenies”. Go Duggars!!
the enemy is inside the gates.
And cheers to you!
We know Christ will return someday, but in the meantime, we are to be occupied - spreading the Gospel, being fruitful and multiplying, spiritually as well as physically.
> The Duggars alone would wipe out 16 greenies. Go Duggars!!
They are at 18 children now. See http://www.duggarfamily.com/
PRAISE GOD!
They are strongly evangelistic, have NO DEBT, and are raising a Godly nation.
May their fervor ignite all Christian hearts to do the same.

Yes I know, I love the show and their family! I stated 16 because the “greenies” were allowing 2 children per family. =).
WTF is THAT??! What's next, Soylent Green?
And there we have it, the murderous, human-hating impulse of Green.
Baroness Warnock: Dementia sufferers may have a 'duty to die'
Where do I report for re-education?
Enforced by forced abortions, of course. The good old Red USA.
Damn. My entire family has been irresponsible in having children except my brother and his wife who only have one so far but are not done. Whoever wants to limit the number of children is nuts.
This is in England, right? But, coming to a country near you soon I fear.
You nailed liberal thought!
Convicted serial killer = No capital punishment!
Third child = Mandatory Abortion
I agree that fewer people would be better.
Dig a hole and round up the useless liberals.
They are the ones without guns.
I perceive a thinly veiled hatred for humanity throughout the ecotard message, consistent with the other forms of liberalism. I don't know the validity of that particular picture as to whether the words are photo-shopped, but the text is a more blatant representation of the core of the leftist message.
Here's another:
Remarkable family. A wonderful example for all.
Global warming is the perfect issue for these people. It is at once: ill-defined, unprovable, frightening, beyond the realm of current science (religious), expensive, and global in scale. Morphine global warming to “climate change” only exacerbates these characteristics. As a result, it gives these guys a blank check justification to grab authority and push any agenda, no matter how nutty, in the name of saving the planet. As a result, some people and organizatons will get awfully rich and sainted at the same time. And the rest of us will become grateful slaves.
Communists have nothing on these people.
China, actually.
This is rubbish. Population growth is way more complex than this - for a start its not simply a question of how many children you have, but when you have them. A woman who has two children at age 20 contributes FAR more to the growth of population than a woman who has three at age 30.
The wife and I only have 4 but I have a feeling God has more planned for us.
Thats what I tell anybody who says there are to many people if it is such a good idea they should start with themselfs.
>>COUPLES who have more than two children are being irresponsible by creating an unbearable burden on the environment
One family that didn’t believe that:
—
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kennedy_family
>>Together Rose and Joe Sr. had nine children:
Joseph Patrick Kennedy, Jr., John Fitzgerald Kennedy,
Rosemary Kennedy, Kathleen Agnes Kennedy, Eunice Mary Kennedy,
Patricia Kennedy, Robert Francis Kennedy, Jean Ann Kennedy,
Edward Moore Kennedy
Had Joe and Rose felt that two were enough, the likes of
Ted wouldn’t have even been born and environmentalist
Robert Kennedy Jr. wouldn’t have been born because his
dad wouldn’t have been born; and these days EMK shows
his dedication to the environment by saying that yes,
maybe wind power is a great option—unless it blocks
your view of Nantucket Sound!
You first!
hehehe
They truly are. I also love Jon and Kate Plus Eight.
Green Garu’s should be drawn and quartered with heads on pikes

Awesome!
Large families were meant to be the norm.
What a joke. They’re bringing in Muslims who breed like rabbits by the shipload, and this clown has the gall to say this with a straight face.
He is not amused.
Another of these loony Brits. What’s creepy is that so many of them have official positions in their government. I suppose they’re in ours, too ... but at least we have guns.
She can start with herself...
Another example of Liberals: They have ALL the ideas-—about how OTHERS should live their lives!
How does one get to be a Guru?
I have four kids.....
I also idle my SUV excessively with the air-conditioner on......
Sometimes I just get in my car in the driveway, and let it idle for hours for no apparent reason....
I’m now public enemy #1......
If they (the Greenies) want a reduction in the population...then how about....
A legal hunt for the Greenies?
If so, what would be the bag limit?
