Earth Day 2022: Investing in Poverty, Suffering, and Human Degradation(Bonus grrrrreta pic)
realclearenergy.org ^ | 4/22/2022 | Benjamin Zycher

It is Earth Day 2022 — always falling on Lenin’s birthday, amusingly enough — the official theme of which this year is Invest In Our Planet™. As with every previous Earth Day, we will be bombarded with innumerable web sites both infantile and mendacious, crude propaganda exercises, myriad pleas for networking, virtue signaling as a central dynamic, mindless recommendations for localism and other useless, wasteful, and environmentally destructive silliness. And — of course — there will be the usual shameless groveling by a long queue of spineless corporate officials and public relations gasbags desperate to advertise their environmental bona fides so that the green alligators might eat them last.

Above all, there will be vociferous exhortations for actions both collective and individual: There are “52 ways to Invest In Our Planet™,” almost all of which involve deeply dubious changes in diets, and the sacrifice of modern products, services, conveniences, and other consumption and lifestyle practices the central effects of which are lives longer, healthier, and more enjoyable, and a vastly cleaner environment to boot. (There also are dark proposals to kill large numbers of wildlife, on the basis of dishonest assertions about the effects of methane emissions.) What will be conspicuous by its absence is honesty about the upheavals and other adverse implications of Invest In Our Planet™. To wit: “This is the moment to change it all — the business climate, the political climate, and how we take action on climate.”

Its all biblical: They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served what has been created instead of the Creator, who is praised forever. Amen.

Romans 1:25 CSB
