Al Gore going to the extreme? Try population control..

It always makes me nervous when men of power want to ‘curb’ the population or ‘stabilize’ the population.

A few facts: Russia has warned of a population crisis.. even Vlad the Putin wanted to have a national day of love making to help spur some more babies. And how would less kids help take care of the ever aging American population?

But even more, deeper, and more profound: The thought of population control could start as a great suggestion but end up being forced.. No? .. nah, eugenics never occurred, right? No big corporations and government agencies ever teamed up to try to stunt population growth–albeit then it was to help get rid of the pesky “unfit” folks. Maybe a new environmental eugenics is upon us?

I just wish, in the end, science would take over this debate and politics would get out of it. Climate change is real.. global warming–and cooling–is real. El Nino and La Nino is real. And pattern change is real. What is absurd is that we are not prepared for either intense hurricanes from intense global heat, extreme sea level rises–or even flash ice ages that occur when sunspots die away.

Politics… environment. Oh they just should not mix……
