Canadian Environmentalist Diane Francis Wants Population Management

According to Francis, humans are the cause of all problems in this earth - I believe this to be true in most cases, other than climate change, i.e. "global warming". She believes the population must be managed, as the Chinese are with the number of children limited to one per family, is a good place to start.

With the edict from the EPA on CO2, the stuff that we exhale and plants inhale, as being a poison to the environmental, it is reasonable for the 'nut Jobs' among us to believe that all humanity should cease to save the planet. Can reasonable or sane people really believe this?

Remember, this isn't about the environment. this is about power and control.

Where do these people come from - where is the common sense? Truly, as the president of Poland exclaimed, the old communists of the sixties have become the environmentalists of the twenty first century. The have migrated into seats of power like they never had as communists, although they are still communists, they just wear green now instead of red.

THE REAL INCONVENIENT TRUTH: DIANE FRANCIS HATES HUMANS

The "inconvenient truth" overhanging the U.N.'s Copenhagen conference is not that the climate is warming or cooling, but that humans are overpopulating the world, says Diane Francis, Editor-at-Large for Canada's Financial Post.

According to Francis:
A planetary law, such as China's one-child policy, is the only way to reverse the disastrous global birthrate currently, which is one million births every four days.
The world's other species, vegetation, resources, oceans, arable land, water supplies and atmosphere are being destroyed and pushed out of existence as a result of humanity's soaring reproduction rate.

Earlier this week, Wall Street Journalist columnist Bret Stephens wrote about the totalitarian impulses that animate global warming true believers. According to Stephens, environmentalists like Francis, and totalitarians like Joseph Stalin, share a penchant for anti-humanism:
In his 2007 best seller "The World Without Us," environmentalist Alan Weisman considers what the planet would be like without mankind, and finds it's no bad thing.

The U.N. Population Fund complains in a recent report that "no human is genuinely 'carbon neutral'"-- its latest argument against children. John Holdren, President Obama's science adviser, cut his teeth in the policy world as an overpopulation obsessive worried about global cooling.

But whether warming or cooling, the problem for the climate alarmists, as for other totalitarians, always seems to boil down to the human race itself, says Stephens.
