The question is, why does ANYBODY listen to the environmental gloom-and-doomers anymore, after they have been wrong for so long and so often?
Rachel Carson has caused more deaths than You-Know-Who-Is-Der-Faderland. DDT would have saved millions of lives, but no, the birdies were going to die! That was proved wrong, but DDT is still banned.
And now Erlich: we have BILLIONS more people than in his time, and people around the world are better fed than ever. Wherever there is free market capitalism, or something like it. But Obama's science czar wrote a book with Erlich, where they wanted to put sterilants in drinking water. This guy has the President's ear!
And we still listen to the environmentalists?
Their artificial standing in court should be removed. NOW.
Mugabe’s Zimbabwe is exhibit A for what Ehrlich and his ilk wants.
