‘Fewer People’: Scientists Say Earth Needs ‘Population Control’ to Combat Climate Change
Hannity.com ^ | November 5, 2019

Posted on 11/06/2019 5:15:19 AM PST by karpov

A recent study published in scientific journal BioScience says the planet needs fewer people to effectively combat climate change; arguing “population control” is necessary to limit the amount of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere.

“A larger group of scientists is sounding another, much more urgent alarm. More than 11,000 experts from around the world are calling for a critical addition to the main strategy of dumping fossil fuels for renewable energy: there needs to be far fewer humans on the planet,” reports Bloomberg.

“We declare, with more than 11,000 scientist signatories from around the world, clearly and unequivocally that planet Earth is facing a climate emergency,” the scientists write.

“The scientists make specific calls for policymakers to quickly implement systemic change to energy, food, and economic policies. But they go one step further, into the politically fraught territory of population control,” adds Bloomberg.

Presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders made similar comments on the campaign trailer earlier this year; suggesting population control and “reproductive rights” were essential tools in the fight against global warming.

Any volunteers among the liberals to self terminate or even to cease all consumption of all fossil fuels directly or indirectly? [crickets] I thought not.

How long did the irrigation piping last after the farm’s transition in Zimbabwe? Electrical wiring is even less effort to scrap.

Fiiiiiine! Go preach that gospel in the Middle East and Africa. They’re the ones with the high birth rates. The West + China, Korea, Japan, etc have low birth rates.

So Gaia worshipers agree the world needs fewer brown babies. (Sound of record scratching). errrrr......ummmmm.......

This is the point at which I grab a bowl of popcorn.

We are the only ones that are actually going to save our species.

The next terrestrial calamity is approximately 99% sure to be another ice age. And there is basically nothing that can or will be done about it. That is what makes this global warming nonsense so comical. The place where my wife and I reside was still covered with about a mile of ice just a little over ten thousand years ago, and it will be again within around the same time period, if not much sooner.

The ones who will survive will be the ones with the ability to move to a more balmy location. But the people already living there unlikely to be putting out the welcome mat. That is going to mean wars and death and destruction. Our society in its current form has not even got the gumption to do that let alone send a handful of the chosen ones to another planet. Get real, the species that have the ability to save themselves are the cockroaches, bacteria, and other hardy species. We don't have a chance compared to them.

Yeah. Africa wins again. There are a lot of experts on Africa that think it is hopeless. The best we can do is contain the problems. That will take military barriers to illegal immigration. The only positive trend I can see is cellular communication which is having the effect of improving literacy. Smart phones require reading skills.

I am old enough to remember all the talk about Zero Population Growth in the 60’s & 70’s.

Seems someone was right then....now it might be too late.

But a world wide biological event could help these people reach their goal.

Earth First was advocating that out of every 63 persons on the planet, 62 would have to be eliminated. OF COURSE -—THEIR followers were survivors.

Agreed! Liberals, illegals and millennials supporting socialism should all cease to reproduce.

UN Agenda 21 calls for Earth’s population to reduced by about 85%.

Fossil fuels ARE renewable.

Oil companies have been pumping oil since the first oil well in 1847 in Baku.

They are still finding more and bigger oil reserves.

So far, nothing is more sustainable. Wind and solar ends up costing more and delivering less. Electricity still depends on fossil fuel.

The best way to start the population control would be to 'end' those 11,000 experts -- who would, of course, volunteer to show the rest of us 'the way'.

Would it not be closer to 11.2 years?

AOC End of the World clock is at 3729 days until January 22, 2030.

Well, those 11,000 can make a decent start if they off themselves.

If not, then they must not really be committed to the cause.

More than 11,000 experts from around the world

Experts at what? Flower arranging? Just like that 97% who say man-made climate change is true, when investigated, turns out to be 75 of 79 climate scientist saying so out of 1,400 other scientists attending a seminar.

Let's see a breakdown of what these "scientists" do. Science today is so compartmentalized that they just take each others word for it when outside of their discipline.

Most on this Death Cultivation Ping List don’t need 11,000 hacks looking to keep their research grants to inform us at this late date what are the misanthropic religious beliefs of their elite Prog funders.

Furthermore, we long ago grokked where their fanatical but faux Sustainability worshiping was headed.

I’m in, so long as the ‘scientists’ volunteer to go first.

It's not about science, it's all about control.
