Yeah, in reality they want to continue to live in hovels and starve to death.
1) I wish I could make a total redistribution [of wealth]," Snyder said. "Things are going to change. They have to,"...
2) (see story: American Environmentalist: 'I'm Ashamed For My Country')
3) Navarro's speech to the "People's Earth Summit" focused on the "ecological debt" owed by the industrialized "North to the [developing] South" for the North's pollution and consumption habits.
4) According to Navarro, men also owe the women a "debt" for gender bias, and he spoke of the debt that a "white person has with colored persons and indigenous peoples" because of racial discrimination
If you speak to these people eventually you get to the heart of their agenda. They don't care about the environment, if they did they'd see that the US in particular is light years ahead of any third world cesspool in terms of cleaning up environmental damage. A casual comparison of the Mississippi and the Ganges rivers will show that.
Wonder if Akshit is related to the aforementioned "Bullsh*t".
Aw, what the heck, let's make it an even 20, just to be on the safe side.
Well, I drive almost nowhere, and when I do, I carpool. One!
stop wearing clothes that have brand names on them,
Though I haven't checked, I'm sure all the brand names on my clothing are sufficiently low class. Probably assembled in third world sweat shops, too, providing citizens of developing nations with wages they could not otherwise receive. Two!
stop using paper napkins for everything,
I don't use them for everything. Three!
stop using paper cups,
I don't use paper cups. Four!
carry your own travel mug,
I did, until I accidentally left it in another's vehicle. Plan on buying another before I travel anywhere. Five!
read Julia 'Butterfly' Hill's book, One Makes a Difference.
Why?
Okay, that's five out of six. Does that mean my lifestyle bs quotient is at an acceptable level? Or do I have to read that dang book first? If not, then I can say that being an environmentalist is easy.
Come get it.
Proof positive these people have never worked a day in their life, have been spoiled rotten to the point of a bona-fide neurosis, not to mention brainwashed at taxpayer expense via our public educational system.
Things are going to change, but not the way you think, the time for your nonsense has passed and gone away, thankfully.
She probably means that our clothing should be manufactured by noble Arizona native-Americans on primitive looms, and by northeastern liberal ladies on spinning wheels.
All clothing should be biodegradable and recyclable. Washing instruction labels would be blank so that soap won't pollute the waterways when the outfits turn into old crusties.
In fact, the ideal clothing for these whackos would be a couple of strategically-placed fig leafs so that we can all get back to the natural conditions of the Garden of Eden.

Mostly I think they'd settle for clean water and enough to eat, at least for starters.
Marxism is NOT good Paula. Not good.
Fantastic! It's so good to see the environazis finally getting behind space exploration. Earth First! (We'll log the other planets later)
"I wish I could make a total redistribution [of wealth]," Snyder said. "Things are going to change. They have to," she added.
Once an environmentalist always a communist. And some people wonder why they are called watermelons
We live on this one small planet and it only has a certain carrying capacity," she said.
This is true but we haven't even come close to that capacity. I read here that the entire population of the world could fit in Texas with 2500 sq ft per person. That leaves us well over 90% of the world for support services. We've got tons of room left!
God Save America (Please)
Eleven? And this child knows something of the "greed of the people?"
Feh. Hogwash...
When Katie dies, we will have gotten rid of a HUGE waste (of skin)
Damn straight, you let-me-mE-ME-tell-you-what's-good-for-you-poor-little-brown-people control freak, things ARE changing. The economies of developing countries that have embraced globalism, trade, capitalism, development are growing at an average rate of 5 percent, compared to developed countries' average rate of 2 percent. (The economies of the progressively smaller number of countries following your f-ed up advice are contracting as their populations are increasing. Look up "natural selection" to deduce the ultimate result of this.)
IOW globalism and economic development, building things, growing things with chemicals, digging and drilling stuff in the earth -- all the things that you hate (and that feed people and cloth them and shelter them and give them resources and security to advance their condition in life and the development and education of their children) -- are NARROWING the gap between the rich and poor nations.
It's your worst nightmare, you hope-killing, freedom-hating poverty whore. Billions of little brown people over the course of this century will be leaving their mud huts for air-conditioned houses with a personal auto in the garage.
What will you do when you can no longer haul your well-fed white butt around the globe lecturing the little brown people about the glorious "sustainability" of their impoverished degradation? I wish you a long future molding in the dark corner of some Karma Cafe commiserating with your fellow socialists about how no one pays attention to you anymore.
(O.K. Done ranting. I feel better now.)
You Greenies can have one of them to commune to death for yourselves. You can even have one with air and water. You can even pick any one you want except this one, and the offer is good until 4 Oct 2009.
