Hitler once said that if you told a big lie, it was more likely that people would believe it, than if you told a small lie. Â Also, the more often you told a lie, the more believable it would seem to be.
Earth Day is a big lie, and it is told often and loudly.
A clean environment is a good thing, and pollution is a serious problem. Â However, that does not mean that people should be harmed in order to leave our planet pristine and untouched. Â We are part of the environment, part of our planet. Â Earth includes people, and we belong here.
No matter how many billions of people inhabit the Earth, vast stretches of land remain uninhabited, and often unexplored.  Here in California, for example, more than half the land has never been explored, let alone lived in, not even by the native tribes.
The fact is that extreme environmentalism, not the kind the encourage you to turn off the lights when they are not needed, or to limit your showers to five minutes, but the super extreme measures such as living without modern conveniences, are really designed to control the masses.
Earth Day also happens to be the birthday of Lenin -- one of the founders of the Soviet Union. Â Some say that this is no coincidence.

“We are in an environmental crisis which threatens the survival of this nation, and of the world as a suitable place of human habitation,†wrote Washington University biologist Barry Commoner for a 1970 Earth Day issue of “Environment,†a scientific journal.
He did not put an end date to his prediction. But Ehrlich did.
“Population will inevitably and completely outstrip whatever small increases in food supplies we make,†Ehrlich said in 1970.
“The death rate will increase until at least 100-200 million people per year will be starving to death during the next ten years.â€
Â
Â
Right. Â You bet. Â We all starved to death in the1970s. Â What planet are they living on? Â It certainly isn't Earth.
Our biggest problem today, in the developed world, is obesity.  Furthermore, we throw out enough food to feed all the people around the world who can't afford to buy it.  The real  problem is money.  The bailed-out banks are the problem.

Earth Day started as a reaction to an ugly oil spill. It also has nothing to do with communism. Environmentalism comes out of science. Science isn't religion so it doesn't put people at the center of everything.
Our nation has never been in nearly this much trouble in our history and all because of One Worldism and the UN.
As far as "Earth Day" is concerned, just read Agenda 21 (the UNs mandate for the future) and you have the entire program and goals "earth day" is pushing.
"We have many advantages in the fight against global warming, but time is not one of them. Instead of idly debating the precise extent of global warming, or the precise timeline of global warming, we need to deal with the central facts of rising temperatures, rising waters, and all the endless troubles that global warming will bring. We stand warned by serious and credible scientists across the world that time is short and the dangers are great. The most relevant question now is whether our own government is equal to the challenge."
JOHN MCCAIN, speech, May 12, 2008
As to global warming - the above statement just proves Bush is a lot smarter than McCain. That junk science has been proven false several times.
and all the fish are dead,
then will the white man learn
that he can't eat money.

Al Gore -
The scientists are virtually screaming from the rooftops now. The debate is over! There's no longer any debate in the scientific community about this. But the political systems around the world have held this at arm's length because it's an inconvenient truth, because they don't want to accept that it's a moral imperative.
Al Gore
We sometimes emphasize the danger in a crisis without focusing on the opportunities that are there. We should feel a great sense of urgency because it is the most dangerous crisis we have ever faced, by far. But it also provides us with opportunities to do a lot of things we ought to be doing for other reasons anyway. And to solve this crisis we can develop a shared sense of moral purpose. (talking about the environamental crisis)
Al Gore
For a long time, the scientists have been telling us global warming increases the temperature of the top layer in the ocean, and that causes the average hurricane to become a lot stronger. So, the fact that the ocean temperatures did go up because of global warming, because of man-made global warming, starting around in the seventies and then we had a string of unusually strong hurricanes outside the boundaries of this multi-decadal cycle that is a real factor; there are scientists who point that out, and they're right, but we're exceeding those boundaries now.
Al Gore
Two thousand scientists, in a hundred countries, engaged in the most elaborate, well organized scientific collaboration in the history of humankind, have produced long-since a consensus that we will face a string of terrible catastrophes unless we act to prepare ourselves and deal with the underlying causes of global warming.
AL GORE, speech at National Sierra Club Convention, Sept. 9, 2005
The warnings about global warming have been extremely clear for a long time. We are facing a global climate crisis. It is deepening. We are entering a period of consequences.

Global warming is too serious for the world any longer to ignore its danger or split into opposing factions on it.

All across the world, in every kind of environment and region known to man, increasingly dangerous weather patterns and devastating storms are abruptly putting an end to the long-running debate over whether or not climate change is real. Not only is it real, it's here, and its effects are giving rise to a frighteningly new global phenomenon: the man-made natural disaster.
BARACK OBAMA, speech, Apr. 3, 2006
I don't mean to imply that we are in imminent danger of being wiped off the face of the earth - at least, not on account of global warming. But climate change does confront us with profound new realities. We face these new realities as a nation, as members of the world community, as consumers, as producers, and as investors. And unless we do a better job of adjusting to these new realities, we will pay a heavy price. We may not suffer the fate of the dinosaurs. But there will be a toll on our environment and on our economy, and the toll will rise higher with each new generation.
EILEEN CLAUSSEN, speech, July 17, 2002
As best as can be determined, the world is now warmer than it has been at any point in the last two millennia, and, if current trends continue, by the end of the century it will likely be hotter than at any point in the last two million years.
ELIZABETH KOLBERT, The New Yorker, Apr. 25, 2005
Yes, there is still much about global warming we have to learn and research should continue. But the longer we delay, the more CO2 will build up in the atmosphere. It stays there a long time. If we wait too long before acting, we will pass a point of no return and lock ourselves into centuries of global warming. We could pass one of those dangerous tipping points that could make life very difficult. It's a risk we shouldn't take.
