UN: Human Life Threatens Climate!
Pajamas Media ^ | Dec. 17 | John Rosenthal

“Too Many Births Said to Threaten the Climate” read the headline in the November 19 edition of the French daily Le Monde. The headline refers to the new “State of World Population 2009” report published by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). The document is called a “report,” but in light of the unabashed and unrelenting advocacy of which it consists, it might be better described as a “pamphlet.” Subtitled “Facing a Changing World: Women, Population and Climate,” what it advocates is combating “global warming” (“There is no time for delay; we are already on the precipice”) and its novelty is precisely to suggest that limiting population growth could represent a crucial contribution to this end.

While protesting — evidently too much — that “no government or United Nations entity is suggesting to ‘control’ population,” the UNFPA pamphlet estimates that population growth has been responsible for some 40-60% of the supposedly climate-driving growth in carbon dioxide emissions.....

The earth would converge to one pleasant, Hawaii-like temperature from pole to pole.

Does this mean the UN is cutting off food shipments to starving nations? That would lower global population by millions per year.

Of course, it would cut off a primary source of rape victims for the blue helmets too.

To solve this problem, I propose that all liberals be sterilized immediately. The problem will disappear in one or two generations.

Don't worry. Obama is doing everything he can to protect the climate from that threat.

Too Many Births Said to Threaten the Climate...

Somewhere in the world, a woman gives birth to a child every second. Our problem is to find this woman and stop her.

About the UN cutting off food shipments to starving people... They are currently shifting money from food and medicine programs for this global warming hoax. The West is not going to be able to fund everything it funds now plus the trillions for the global warming god of the UN.
