So I'm in this Environmental Studies and Systems class this year.
ANd I find
"Ignorance is bliss."
-_____- I feel so guilty with everything I do now because everything we
do......... AFFECTS OUR WORLD IN SOME WAY SHAPE AND FORM!
How do we fix this huge loss of our water and this growing population before
we run out of resources?!!?!?!
Hmmmmm.... Perhaps you should do research on the green movement and its desires to depopulate the plant. This is, sadly, not a conspiracy theory. Last semester I did my final in Sociology on crime and depopulation. I will share some quotes with you from various green movements. I spent a great deal of time studying this, including reading World Bank documents, White House documents, and United Nations program documents -- Agenda 21, for instance.
Are we causing pollution? Absolutely. Is our population too much? No. Not at all. There are vast amounts of land that are not inhabited. Is there a water shortage? No. Not really. But fear sells. And the government cannot get you to do what they want unless you absolutely fear that there is a crisis, doom coming, or that we risk disaster.
Check into the World Bank Lending Guidelines (loans to countries). Countries who receive help from the WB must implement population reduction measures. Refusal may mean the loan is denied. (Some countries have sterility camps. In other countries, woman are given forced sterlizations after child birth...this is done without their knowledge or consent.)
As of last year, in the state of Oregon, for example, they made it law that any female as young as 15 may be sterilized under medical coverage. The horrible aspect of this is, a teenage female, without notifying her parents, may get sterilized.
So, here are some quotes for you:
First, from David Brower of the Sierra Club: "Child bearing should be a...crime...unless parents hold a government license. All potential parents should be required to use contraceptive chemicals, the government issuing antidotes to citizens chosen for childbearing."
Maurice Strong (UN Environmental Program): "Isn't the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn't it our responsibility to bring that about?"
Christopher Manes (Earth First): "The extinction of the human species may not only be inevitable, but a good thing."
Thomas Ferguson (Office of Population Affairs): "There is a single theme behind our work; we must reduce population levels." and "The quickest way to reduce population is through famine, like in Africa, or through diseases like the Black Death."
United Nations Eco-92 Earth Charter: "The present past overpopulation now far beyond the world carrying capacity cannot be answered by future reductions in birth rate due to contraception, sterilization, and abortion,
but must be met in the present by the reduction of numbers presently existing. This must be done by whatever means necessary." [Emphasis is my own.]
From the Georgia Guidestones (a monument in Georgia), this is the first thing written on the stones: 1. MAINTAIN HUMANITY UNDER 500,000,000 IN PERPETUAL BALANCE WITH NATURE
As I said, I did extensive research. I love research. I have a notebook filled with the stuff I found. The majority of the information came from government documents.
