In a recent article for the Daily Signal, Professor Walter Williams of George Mason University wrote how each Earth Day is accompanied by predictions of doom.
He points to the first Earth Day in 1970 when Professor George Wald of Harvard proclaimed that civilization will end within 15 to 30 years, and how Professor Paul Ehrlich of Stanford repeated the Malthusian claim that the world population would overrun the food supply.
Earth Day has consistently been marked by apocalyptic environmental prophecies that never come to fruition. This years Earth Day was no different. The Huffington Post warned us that we passed a frightening milestone of CO2 in the atmosphere and GreenPeace tweeted that we only have ten years to save the planet.
Groups such as the Sierra Club, the Alliance for Jobs and Clean Energy, and the Washington state Democratic Party came out heavily against the measure stating that it did not invest in green jobs, energy efficiency, transit, housing, and renewable energy.
In other words, it didnt expand the government enough.

Pass the DDT.
Ted Danson told us that 20 years ago....................
No you won’t erf killer. LOL!
LOL! How many ears did he consume DDT to show it was safe? Yet, he eventually died. But not from DDT.
A great 7-spot of caveats; I could add 7 more, especially w/ respect to measurements (e.g., when, where, how and for how long?).
These guys deal in intellectual 3-dollar-bills while bragging that they aren’t Confederate. Delusion twice-removed, to them, seems adequate for their own QED.
Oh, the list could be YUGE but those are basics at least. And, 3....2....1.....crickets.................

The author, featured in Esquire magazine, September 1971, eating a tablespoon of DDT, a feat he repeated publicly almost every week in his public campaign to show the safety of DDT.

I'd say there is proof that he was right - what we live in today isn't civilization.
Well, there is a point to your statement.
He lived to be 85 years old................

LOL. You made Wikipedia scrub the entry.
“””The only conclusion one can draw is that either liberals didnt believe the climate alarmism they peddled this Earth Day, or they are willing to hold the planet hostage in order to raise your taxes.”””
It’s more the latter.
Yup. Money. But those that seek it are dyed-in-the-wool communist organizations like the Sierra Club, as an example. Yet, the worst nuclear cataclysm in the history of the world occurred in May of 2011 in Fukushima, Japan, and no one says a word, or has tried to do anything to remediate or control the situation. Hypocrites of the worst ilk, as well as fraudulent “sceintists”. “I decided to share the photographs I took last year in Japan these photos cannot adequately convey the scientific and human impact of the worst industrial cataclysm in the history of the world [R]adioactive isotopes will be extreme hazards for 250,000 years, of course no one knows when it will end.” - Arnie Gundersen. http://www.globalresearch.ca/fukushima-worst-industrial-cataclysm-in-history-of-world-nuclear-engineer-arnie-gundersen/5580249
How many fabulous, energy sucking, carbon producing mansions does Al Gore own now?
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!
Remember in November 18 !
Since Trump entered the 16 presidential race too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the 18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.
Such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring, activist Supreme Court justices off of the bench.
In fact, if Justice Gorsuch turns out to be a liberal Trojan Horse then we will need 67 patriot senators to remove a House-impeached Gorsuch from office.
Noting that the primaries start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February 18, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way.
While I Googled the primary information above concerning Iowa and New Hampshire, FReeper iowamark brought to my attention that the February primaries for these states apply only to presidential election years. And after doing some more scratching, since primary dates for most states for 2018 elections probably havent been uploaded at this time (March 14, 2017), FReepers will need to find out primary dates from sources and / or websites in their own states.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitutions Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal governments powers.
Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal governments limited powers listed below.
Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States. Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphasis added]. Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]. United States v. Butler, 1936.
There is nobody more delusional that one who believes his or her own BS.
