“There’s a paradigm shift going on.”
So said a friend of mine who is very concerned about the affects of fossil-fuel CO2 and other ways humans harm the planet. The paradigm shift he was referring to was a change in the global “mindset,” if you will. A global (literally) change toward green living.
I asked my friend that, whether a shift were happening or not, would he prefer that it take place by government force, or by the free will or man? My friend didn’t answer directly, but did note that other shifts in history seemed to require swift coercion by a higher central power, rather than by the often slow action of the free populace. Putting an end to U.S. slavery was his prime example.
So I think it was clear what his answer was: We need to go green now, and if it required government to impose it on us—through regulation, taxation, imprisonment for non-compliance—then so be it.
Think I’m being hyperbolic? Go take a listen to the rhetoric of the environmentalist and then tell me if I am.
Despite the claim by liberals/Democrats that it is they who are for freedom, liberty, tolerance, and open-mindendness, today’s green movement, which is a very powerful arm of the Democrat Party, is quite illiberal and intolerant.
What’s more, the consequences of their policies, if fully implemented, would have disastrous—disastrous—on the world population. First, they would bring down whole

Well, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob certainly does not think that way, when you see what He does to the planet in the Tribulation. And when you consider what He did to the planet in the worldwide flood, it should be obvious, too... :-)
Check the ECO web-sites. They want to decrease the Optimum Global Human Population by 80% in fifty years.
Why bother identifying resources we have use for, if we are never going to be able to use them. A lot of them are renewable (although it takes time). Some are not, a replacement for a nonrenewable resource will not be found until those resources are exhausted.
A political tool to establish a power base.
You need new friends.
“Environmentalism 101: Save the Planet. Kill the People”
Some quotes supporting that agenda....

My stepson believes this sort of thing, too.
I always ask why he and the other eco-liberals aren’t willing to show any leadership and kill themselves.
They just want other people to go ahead and die.
of course. green has meant socialist since at least the 60’s
Shift Happens. Fire up the Hum-Vees.
LOL. Hey, I live in NJ. It’s either have liberal friends or no friends at all!
Thanks for letting me know about this site. Great resource!
Then why are those very people breathing and breeding?
I always tell people like this to be more pro-active and to put their money where their mouths are. When they ask what I mean, I say: "Kill yourself."
When they look at me, mouth agape, I often follow-up with: "Typical liberal, you want someone else to solve your problem."
A conversation killer, for certain, but it prevents further liberal talking points coming my direction.
A friend of a friend emphatically believes that the world would be better off without humans in it.
Fortunately, I have not had the pleasure of meeting her. I would give her my blessing to vacate the premises.
Forward fifty years: Chinese-owned oil companies will be in full production in what once was ANWR, and they'll kill every caribou that gets in their way.
DDT is prominently mentioned. Children dying of malaria make for excellent poster fodder.
I'd be curious, though, as to how many children die from dysentry, due to inadequate refrigeration? Banning refrigerant CFCs was incredibly short sighted.
Howzabout all of the associated misery that comes with no clean water supplies? Provision of clean water is a pretty basic technology. I find it endlessly frustrating that billions are thrown into the endless pit that is African AIDS treatment, but no one worries about how the people that are being "saved" can find clean water to drink.
Save the environment,
kill an environmentalist.
Ironically, while it is true that during epidemics, mortality seems to work from the bottom of the pyramid up, these people, who I call “gigaciders”, in that they want billions of people to die, always assume that they are at the top of the pyramid.
But that’s not up to them to decide. The truth of the matter is that many people who farm for a living have very robust immune systems, whereas the pasty-reared liberal academician is very susceptible to infection.
I can also add that peasant farmers are used to epidemics, and so know how to behave. The PRLAs, however, have little or no self control and discipline in their personal lives, and so are far more likely to unknowingly take risks, or take them because their whim is to take them.
Al Gore thinks he controls the weather, like some kind of Greek god. His ego won’t permit him to even acknowledge that a mere virus could topple him from his throne.
I’ve said it for years, the environuts want rid of most of us and none of them.
This is what the schools are drilling into your children!
