"The environmental movement I helped found has lost its objectivity, morality and humanity," Moore said at the CORE teach-in.

Hmmmmmm. This statement could me used to define virtually all liberal causes.....I think.

Great post.

The enviro-nuts, and their DDT hysteria, can also be thanked for the resurgence of malaria. But, hey, what's a few million dead in the quest for a "pristine" world?

[auntdot]

These people do not care how many thousands die as long as the snail darter is preserved.

DDT can save many thousands of lives a year from the scourge of malaria, but its use has been banned.

It is not the rich robber barons at Dupont that are killing all of these people, it is the environmentalists.

If the right wanted to bring down Kerry and some of the enviro wackos we would put on PBS stories like this one. Frontline and others have done them, so it is possible. If that does not work you buy half hour infomercials like the cosmetic and weight loss companies, you front the founder of Greenpeace to tell the story. Someone on this board knows people at Heritage, American Enterprise or Club for Growth. These are how the enviro people have used Sierra Club, Greenpeace etc to tell their story.

This is an excellent article, thank you so much for posting it. I wish every single liberal/leftist would have to read about the impact of their own arrogance and stupidity. The impact on the lives of children around the world so they can feel sanctimonious is simply chilling. But since when do they really care about the children other than to trot them out as props during election years?

No matter how savagely they fight against it, the truth eventually oozes out.

"We must put humanity back into the environmental debate," said CORE national spokesman Niger Innis. "We all want to protect our planet. But we must stop trying to protect it from bogus or illusory threats - and on the backs, and the graves, of the world's most powerless and impoverished people.

"The green movement imposes the views of mostly wealthy, comfortable Americans and Europeans on mostly poor, desperate Africans, Asians and Latin Americans. It violates their most basic human rights," he said.

While the premise of this article is right, I would still be wary of the underlying impetus here due to Niger Innis' ivolvement. "Sir, I think reparations are in order."

"I had no idea it would evolve into a band of scientific illiterates who use Gestapo tactics to silence people who wish to express their views in a civilized forum. -- Patrick Moore.

It appears that the third-world envirnomentalists are learning that they are lower on the food chain / pecking order.

Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore said that when he helped create Greenpeace in 1971, "I had no idea it would evolve into a band of scientific illiterates who use Gestapo tactics to silence people who wish to express their views in a civilized forum.

It is a shame that the Eco-tally-ban groups around Yellowstone don't put all their effort into Greenpeace's battle against the worlds poor. It would be empowering for them to actually be killing people instead of merely killing economies by putting people out of business and out of jobs.

It is refreshing to hear a prominent environmentalist acknowledge the environmental movement's junk science (scientific illiterates) and use the term Gestapo tactics on someone other than George W. Bush.

Let's see, enviromentals give us power-generating windmills that they now cry must be stopped. Too many baby birds are being chopped up.

The environmentalist also have us MTBE gasoline additive to help clean the air for the children till it is learned the stuff leaks from storage tanks and ruins pristine underground drinking water.

What will they give us next?? What a bunch of losers.

[goldstategop]

True... the enviros want to keep the Third World around as a zoo so they can see what's left of the jungle. Too bad if the people there get in the way of that desire.
