“Smart Growth,” “sustainability” and redistribution of wealth through collectivism is being implemented under AB 32 and the Governor’s Global Climate Change initiative. (See California Association of Counties page http://www.csac.counties.org/default.asp?id=1824)
Initially, transportation funding will be redirected to communities and counties that have complied with smart growth planning.

Here is the CARB scoping document on implementing AB 32 http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/scopingplan/scopingplan.htm

Climate Change will reach deep into all areas of land use to turn our system toward collectivism in resource management. A recent California Water Plan update http://www.waterplan.water.ca.gov/docs/enews/2008/cwp_e-news071608.pdf further develops the new concept of “stakeholder watershed management” through the concept of “Social Learning” to align local water and land use to statewide goals. It relies on the European socialist model. http://ec.europa.eu/environment/water/water-framework/index_en.html Scary scary stuff.

The watershed preocess is being driven by the Army Corps. http://www.hq.usace.army.mil/cepa/releases/WaterLandPublicMeeting12May.html and a process called “Shared Vision Planning” http://www.waterplan.water.ca.gov/materials/index.cfm?subject=apr2208

If more people don’t come to understand and defend what the grand American experiement in individual liberty by our Founders was all about, we will have lost it entirely for the next generation.

Great stuff, marsh2. Looks like I have some reading and studying to do.

Is the "California Water Plan" the same thing that Arnie is spamming?

I just got this email from him today:

California's economy, agriculture, jobs, families, environment and future depend on our water supply.

Governor Schwarzenegger has a plan for our water future.

Unfortunately, lawmakers in Sacramento have not taken action on this issue. Waiting any longer for action is no longer an option - too much depends on it.

You can help move the Governor's plan forward by letting your Legislators know how important it is to you that they address this issue this year.

California needs water to keep our economy strong, keep people working in good jobs and keep our great state moving forward. Send your legislators an email today. Our state's water supply depends on it!

“stakeholder watershed management”

The term "stakeholder," when used in conjunction with most any "CONsensus" process, is to be interpreted as "claimjumper!" The biggest "claimjumper" in CA today is... government!!! (which is to be interpreted as "management")

He who controls the water... controls the land!
He who controls the land... controls the people!!!
