Phony climate-warming threats mask the real crisis: demographic winter

If you’ve been around as long as I have you probably remember the dire predictions from environmentalists back in the 70’s. We were warned that urgent action was required to save the earth. If we didn’t drastically reduce our energy consumption immediately (recall cardigan-clad Jimmy Carter telling us to dial back our theromostats?) another new ice age would soon be upon us.

Green prognosticators were also shrieking about the make-believe population explosion. Stop reproducing” they told us, or the planet will become so overcrowded that we’d run out of resources and die.
 
Today we’ve got the faux global warming crisis looming, and the new Chicken Littles have dusted off the over-population con ~ Global Warming Alarmists Plead: Save the Children By Not Having Them ~

(E)ven though tornadoes, floods, fires and hurricanes are way down, the consensus is that global warming will kill us all. A hundredth of a degree increase in temperature is nothing to sneeze at, you know.
 
Who will fare worst in our coming climate apocalypse? That’s right! The children! The promised destruction of our littlest ones is why NPR and a group of academic philosophers say we should “protect our kids by not having them.”

 

This nonsense comes as our current birthrate is so low that it’s a national emergency. We’re actually in the middle of a fertility crisis ~

… China, Japan, and much of Europe— are all facing what has been called a “demographic winter.”
 
Until recently, the United States has been an exception to this distressing trend, but this seems no longer the case.

 

The U.S. total fertility rate has now dropped below replacement levels, it’s presently at an all-time low of 59.6 births per 1,000 women.
 
And the enviro-wackos want that reduced further? So we can commit civilizational suicide – as a sacrifice to Gaia? Their fascist rhetoric is frightening ~

from “Population Engineering and the Fight against Climate Change” (by philosophers Colin Hickey, Travis N. Rieder and Jake Earl) ~
 
In procreating one makes a whole new person who will emit [greenhouse gases]. But in fact, it is more than that. By creating a new person, one makes it possible that he or she will go on to create more people, who are then able to go and create even more people […]
 

(Geniuses aren’t they? It somehow never occurs to them that in “creating” new humans we increase the chances of being blessed with another Galileo, Newton, Pasteur or Faraday, and thus benefit from ever-new frontiers to explore, perhaps even discover solutions to our current challenges – both real and imagined.)

 
“The question, it seems, is not whether we should implement some sort of fertility-reducing population engineering program, but rather which interventions such a program should include.”

 
Who in the world died and made these people gods?

The “population bomb” not only did not have the predicted consequences, but almost all of the developed countries of the world are now experiencing fertility rates far below replacement levels. Birthrates have fallen so low that even immigration cannot replace declining populations, and this migration is sapping strength from developing countries, the fertility rates for many of which are now falling at a faster pace than did those of the developed countries.
 
The economies of the world will continue to contract as the “human capital” spoken of by Nobel Prize winning economist Gary Becker, diminishes. The engines of commerce will be strained as the workers of today fail to replace themselves and are burdened by the responsibility to support an aging population.
