Real Threats to Planet and People by Paul Driessen

Real Threats to Planet and People by Paul Driessen
"Environmental activism was already nasty and lethal when I wrote Eco-Imperialism: Green Power – Black Death 18 years ago. 
It’s gotten steadily worse since then, especially with hysteria about the “looming manmade climate apocalypse” driving ever more extreme demands that we rid the world of fossil fuels and prohibit or roll back modern living standards.
The demands have reached previously unimaginable extremes – based primarily on GIGO computer models and wild assertions about planetary temperatures, weather, ice caps, and vanishing wildlife.
The claims have little basis in real-world evidence but are presented as Gospel Truth by climate alarmists.
  • One group of extremists wants to make what it calls ecocide” an “international crime” – then prosecute and imprison political leaders and corporate executives who have engaged in “mass ecological destruction” that these zealots assert has now reached a magnitude “similar” to Nazi genocide.
  • Others are agitating for aGreat Reset” – demanding that corporations reject their traditional roles and goals, and focus instead on “saving the planet” and advancing racial and gender “equity.” This unavoidably means companies must embrace “a certain degree of eco-dictatorship,”corporate-state tyranny and “top-down authoritarianism.” But in exchange, they will reap huge profits by disrupting access to reliable energy and reducing middle and working-class living standards, in the name of climate.
The radical left routinely employs eco-hysteria and Nazi analogies to deflect attention from the horrific disease and death tolls they have inflicted on Third World “people of color,” by denying them access to reliable energy, spatial insect repellants, and modern farming technologies...
