The British fertility rate is 1.7. The EU average is 1.5. Despite this, Professor Guillebaud says rich countries should be the most concerned about family size as their children have higher per capita carbon dioxide emissions.

So, the non-living planet earth is more important than people, civilization, or for that matter, God. We have some seriously confused people in positions of influence.

large families should be frowned upon as an environmental misdemeanour in the same way as...failing to reuse plastic bags

Ooh! I'm skeered!

"Gee, honey, since we only have one kid, we can get away with not reusing that plastic bag. Go ahead, throw it out!"

All those who think that there are too many people on the planet are hereby invited to leave at their (and our) earliest convenience.

Let’s just come right out and say it. “Muslims are bad for the planet.”

Start the presses for those bumper stickers.

“... I would then have him trace the process of our moral decline, to watch, first, the sinking of the foundations of morality as the old teaching was allowed to lapse, then the rapidly increasing disintegration, then the final collapse of the whole edifice, and the dark dawning of our modern day when we can neither endure our vices nor face the remedies needed to cure them.....of late years wealth has made us greedy, and self-indulgence has brought us, through every form of sensual excess, to be, if I may so put it, in love with death both individual and collective...” TITUS LIVIUS 59 B.C. TO 17 A.D.

Yet the envirowhackos new ‘god’, algore, flies everywhere and drives an SUV. And they seem to see no conflict in this.

That’s cause Gore is doing it to save the environment, don’t ya know? Some people are more equal than others.

It just means you can sell your offspring, flight and SUV offset credits to those of us "over the limit." I bet you'll make a tidy profit!

Actually, I save the darn plastic bags, so I'll trade you my plstic bag offset credits for some of your young'un offset credits...

The third world will take over. Over 30 years, ago, I was told, Kissenger said we had to do something about the third world or they will take us over, Guess what, they have.

Look around you esp big cities in this country. People from Latin America, Mexico, Africa, and Pacific Islanders, everywhere.

The third world will prevail, and we will not be able to support the infrastructures in this nation.

On the way home from Las Vegas, I heard on the local radio station about having increase the funding for public schools, sounds too familiar to what has happened here in Kalifornia.

It will happen all over this nation, and it is rollerballing through. European civilization, which is what the U.S. and Europe had at one time is going to cease to exist.

Like it or not, that type of civilization is what made Countries, cities and towns desirable places to be.

Folks it is disappearing in our life time.

Take note people who think moving out of Kalifornia is going to solve the problem. Kalifornia is only the future of what the rest of you all will see.

The Instrument of our DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

While the ecopaths are decrying children as evil, I on the other hand suggest we need many, many more of "The Instrument of our DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!" to save western society and culture from extinction.

When The West falls, Civilization falls. Perhaps forever.

It’s not the first time we’ve heard this song and dance and it won’t be the last.

“I reuse our plastic bags to clean out the catbox and take lunch to work. I wonder if that will satisfy the environMENTALs? ...”

What, exactly, are you taking to work for lunch ;-)

J/K We re-use the plastic bags for all kinds of stuff. I’m sure some crafty lady has figured out how to crochet bath-mats or something out of them.
