As you celebrate Earth Day, also take time to remember Vladimir Lenin whose birthday happens to be the same day as Earth Day. Lenin is the main inspiration for those environmentalist fighting for a cleaner environment by hasting the overthrow of capitalism. I recommend hugging a tree, turning your lights off for one hour, and reading "The Communist Manifesto" in honor of this great day.'Sixty years after adopting the [Universal Declaration of Human Rights], Mother Earth is now, finally, having her rights recognized,' said President Morales, immediately following the Assembly’s unanimous adoption of a resolution designating 22 April each year as International Mother Earth Day (A/63/L.69).
Action to that end had never been more vital, as the toll of years of environmental degradation and callous exploitation of the planet’s natural resources and ecosystems could no longer be ignored, he said. The incremental yet increasingly obvious impacts of manmade climate change were putting Mother Earth at even more peril, as in his region alone the snow capped peaks of the Andean mountain range were receding every day; islands were buffeted by ever-more violent storms; and arid areas were becoming even drier.
'We are strangling the planet -– strangling ourselves,' President Morales declared, stressing that, for too many years, the world had been held captive by the seductive notion of capitalism. However, it was now clear that “we don’t own the planet, we belong to it,” he said, calling for the twenty-first century to be dedicated to protecting and supporting Mother Earth and her ecosystems.
Some 60 years after activists had fought so hard to win acknowledgement of human rights worldwide, including social, economic, political and cultural rights, Mother Earth was now having her rights recognized, he continued. Indeed, animals and plants -- all living creatures and beings -- had rights that deserved to be respected and protected. Those that had supported the text in the Assembly would be heralded for their historic action, he said, expressing the hope that, as the twentieth century had been called 'the century of human rights', this new era would be known as the “century of the rights of Mother Earth'.
Continuing, President Morales said that, by proclaiming the International Day, United Nations Member States now had the opportunity to begin laying out a Declaration on the Rights of Mother Earth. Such a Charter must enshrine the right to life for all living things; right to regeneration of the planet’s biocapacity; right to a clean life -- for Mother Earth to live free of contamination and pollution; and the right to harmony and balance among and between all things.

Happy Mother Earth Day And Happy Birthday To Lenin
As you may know it is Earth Day, but this year is a very special one because "Mother Earth is finally having her rights recognized". The UN is pushing for the Earth to have the same rights as humans. A very moving message--no this did not come from the Onion as far as I know--follows from the main proponent of the fight to give Earth her rights:

One of the co-founders of Earth Day, Ira Einhorn, thought it would be a great idea to compost his ex girlfriend in his closet. He blamed it on "his ex-girlfriend had been killed by CIA agents who framed him for the crime because he knew too much about the agency's paranormal military research."-http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/42711922/ns/technology_and_science-science/
ReplyDeleteThe EM is a group of freaks and commies. It uses an agenda that all can support, protecting the environment, and uses that support to advance other unrelated agendas. Environmentalism is a new pagan religion that is one of the many vehicles that is helping to usher in a new global communist world order. http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/04/the_un_and_one_world_worship.html
ReplyDelete"It happened he had some good reasons for his prescient suspicions. In a 1994 lecture, McIntire pointed out the UN had finally established a Commission on Religion devoted to establishing one world worship. He wrote that the environmentalist movement in the UN wanted a world religion which would support "sustainable development." [....]
"That is because the coupling of the worship of an Earth Goddess with pseudo religious Marxist dialectics results in the perfect rationale for actualizing a redistributionist "religion." The Marxist concept of an international, unified brotherhood and new world order is now united with a pantheistic religion perfectly suited to redistributionist ends on the bases of core pantheistic beliefs. The divine Mother Earth's treasures are limited and distributed unequally. Therefore, her resources should be divided equally to all by a new UN priesthood which divines, follows, interprets, and enforces the eleven commandments of Pachamama/Gaia. While all nations are guilty of sinning against Mother Earth, the chief sinner among nations is the wicked capitalist United States, which though responsible for about 25% of production, has sucked up Mother Earth's resources at a rate of consumption that has ravaged and imperiled the impoverished nations of the earth. US imperialism and capitalistic heresies must be extinguished and a new age of peace and security ushered in by the faithful worshipers of Mother Earth."
"First, America must be punished for her sins. She must be reduced to the status of all other nations, exiled from the society of the victimized nations of the earth, properly and justly humiliated. The great Whore of Babylon (the United States) must be brought down along with the Little Satan (Israel) while the righteous (all victimized nations) are lifted from the ash heap, raised up by the wealth seized from the aforementioned predatory nations."
"Those peoples and nations who are extremists tied to traditional religions and outdated capitalism must be defeated and eliminated as enemies of the New Law and the New World Order, for their backward looking views inhibit the rise of the inevitable global governance as well as disturb the unanimity of the Brotherhood."
"In the place of the old, corrupt world order will rise a new utopia in which every human being will have his apportioned allotment of the world's resources. No one will be in want and all will live in peace and harmony to the end of their days. "
http://greenspirit.com/key_issues.cfm?msid=34&page=3 As one of the founders of Greenpeace Patrick Moore stated "More than twenty years ago I was one of a dozen or so activists who founded Greenpeace in the basement of the Unitarian Church in Vancouver.[...] Surprisingly enough the second event that caused the environmental movement to veer to the left was the fall of the Berlin Wall. Suddenly the international peace movement had a lot less to do. Pro-Soviet groups in the West were discredited. Many of their members moved into the environmental movement bringing with them their eco-Marxism and pro-Sandinista sentiments."
Earth Day used to be a semi-big deal. Now, it's a yawn. I think environmentalists have pissed off too many people. The economic slump doesn't help people focus on environmentalism either, and who cares what the UN says or does? I don't think many people, even in government at this point.
ReplyDeleteIt used to be that the head of the UN was as well known a person as any head of state in the world. Now, without cheating, who can name the UN General Secretary, or whatever he's called, off the top of their head? I bet all RTP&GG members strike out, or if they don't, they cheated!
Bud-D, "The economic slump doesn't help people focus on environmentalism either, and who cares what the UN says or does?"
ReplyDeleteCheck out what the EPA and environmentalist are up to.
Ban Ki Moon? I understand your point about the UN not being that big of a deal and appearing to be loosing relevance. I think Obama cares about the UN as was demonstrated in his seeking its approval instead of the Congress for his action in Libya. And remember that environmentalism is only one of the ways in which capitalism and the West are being attacked.
I think Americans should care as their tax dollars goes towards supporting the UN. And a lot of what they are saying sounds crazy and is easy to dismiss but it will eventually become reality unless the UN is taken to be the serious threat that it is. Look at how the EPA is increasing its regulation and sidestepping Congress in regulating the economy. Back in the 1990's if you heard someone state that environmentalist were going to bring about the demise of the SUV with their attacks on it, you would have laughed at that person and just considered those EVs clowns, but look around. The environmentalist have gotten their way by helping to bring about high gas prices which have in turned led to the demise of the SUV in part. I am not comparing the UN to these guys, but people like Hitler were laughed at and not taken seriously when they were starting out.
The point is that it is easy to dismiss clowns like Morales, but their clowness doesn't make them less of a threat nor does it mean that they won't achieve their goals.
Clearly cheating! :) Good points in your response here.
