Berkeley Declares A ‘Climate Emergency,’ Calls For Population Control
2:51 PM 06/13/2018 Michael Bastasch | Contributor
The California city that was home to 1960s radicals and known for excessively liberal politics declared a “climate emergency” on Tuesday evening, backing policies to “humanely stabilize” the human population.
The Berkeley City Council unanimously voted to mobilize other California governments “to initiate a just local, state, national, and global climate emergency mobilization to restore a safe climate.”
The council’s resolution, introduced by Council Member Cheryl Davila, warned that man-made global warming was “driving a global fresh water scarcity crisis and the sixth mass extinction of species, which could devastate much of life on earth for the next 10 million years.” The resolution calls for a World War II-level mobilization effort to fight global warming.
Davila’s resolution claims, “The community of Berkeley and surrounding counties, despite well-meaning efforts, have disproportionately contributed to dangerous greenhouse gas emissions and thus must substantially curtail use of fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions on behalf of the larger planetary community to enable a rapid, just transition to a stable climate.”
“Reversing global warming and restoring a safe and stable climate requires an emergency mobilization to reach zero greenhouse gas emissions across all sectors at wartime speed, to rapidly and safely drawdown or remove all the excess carbon from the atmosphere, and to implement safe measures to protect all people and species from the consequences of abrupt warming in the near-term,” the resolution claims.
To accomplish this, “requires an effort to preserve and restore half Earth’s biodiversity in interconnected wildlife corridors and to humanely stabilize population,” the resolution claims.

No.
Go and commit a singular vice to the point of expiration.
Does this mean we bulldoze this crap pile into the Pacific and make sure none of the feces swims to shore?
Israel is a net exporter of water because of their desalination technology, and it's for sale.
Democrats wouldn't even consider actual solving their water shortage crisis, because you must never waste a crisis. You must nourish and exploit it.
You can stop this EASILY by enforcing illegal immigration laws. California doesn’t have the water supply to provide for all the illegals they’ve taken in, let alone all the food, waste and other support systems required by enlarged populations (as pointed out by the Berkeley study here).
Soo... send them back. But somehow I suspect Berkeley will deny that’s a real solution.
They know that can’t and won’t happen. They also know their political darlings are hypocrites about it. But the point is the virtue signaling game. As for the earth itself it has been known to bounce back from far worse.
Well they actually are — figuratively speaking.
The ones calling for “population control” never see themselves as part of the solution.
If they really cared, they would make the sacrifice.
Sad but true.
I just wish they wouldn’t demand we do the same.
Pick the twenty poorest nations on the planet
Give free food dosed with birth control drugs.
They are absolutely right, we need population control, and it should start at Berkeley immediately, if not sooner.
Extermination and Euthanasia is coming to Berkeley soon. they will start rounding up “undesirables” and eliminating them, Much like the Germans Eliminating the Jews.
I’m looking forward to all of them committing suicide to save the planet.
Skulls full of mush. Imagine how money is spent; whether within public schools or via private college tuition, to so thoroughly propagandize this blithering sh**head to the extent indicated. And the city of Berkeley probably pays her a salary out of taxpayer funds to babble this idiocy.
I have a suggestion on where they should start.
Well we can laugh them to shame if worse comes to worst.
““humanely stabilize” the human population.”
... zero immigration?
The so-called “progressives” coming out for killing and sterilizing ... mainly folks they imagine are inferior to themselves.
Fascists and communists married in one tidy package ... very efficient of them.
