I am surprised the US global warming types have not seized on immigration, legal and illegal. With 1.2 million legal immigrants entering annually and another 500,000 to 1 million legals per year, the US population is soaring faster than any developed nation on the planet with an annual population growth of .89%. We have added 100 million since 1970 and will add another 167 million by 2060. In fact, in just 23 years, we will add another 62 million [roughly the size of the UK], by 2030. And just imagine the carbon foot print an America of half a billion people will present.

Please vote "no" to end the fight over immigration that is dividing the Club, and affirm the Sierra Club's commitment to tackle the environmental problems caused by global population by addressing its root causes: the lack of health care, education, family planning, and empowerment of women worldwide. (For information, see: sierraclub.org/population.)

They're not too happy about the illegals leaving their trash all over the land they cross.
