"If we don't change, our species will not survive... Frankly, we may get to the point where the only way of saving the world will be for industrial civilization to collapse."

-Maurice Strong quoted in the September 1, 1997 edition of National Review magazine.

“Isn’t it the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about?”

Ha, I was just listening to Glenn Beck’s radio show about Obama’s Rural Counci, which essentially put’s Obama’s federal regulators in charge of enacting the Agenda 21/ Wildlands project in rural areas of the country.

I had this in my file regarding sustainability, the buzz word of the Agenda 21:

This from a web site that is called the American Policy Center:

The best way to understand what Sustainable Development actually is can be found by discovering what is NOT sustainable.

According to the UN’s Biodiversity Assessment Report, items for our everyday lives that are NOT sustainable include: Ski runs, grazing of livestock, plowing of soil, building fences, industry, single family homes, paved and tarred roads, logging activities, dams and reservoirs, power line construction, and economic systems that fail to set proper value on the environment (capitalism, free markets).

Maurice Strong, Secretary General of the UN’s Rio Earth Summit in 1992 said, “. .. Current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle class — involving high meat intake, use of fossil fuels, appliances, home and work air-conditioning, and suburban housing are not sustainable.”

Exactly.

It’s why the left is willing to abandon women and gay rights in its support of the pre medieval religion, Islam.

Smart Asses. They know it all. They think they do. They’re “wise in their own eyes”, playing God. Lord, deliver us!
