Environmental Terrorism

In my previous post, Death By Primitivism, I talked about how following the logic of primitivism and radical environmentalism would result in the eradication of a substantial portion of the earth's current population. If you still think environmentalism is a noble cause you need to read this article posted today on LewRockwell.com. Environmentalism's WMD. Even though I'm sure there are many environmentalists who don't view their cause in this light, there's seems to be no doubt that the agenda of those who are leading the movement is murderous.

The article talks about how banning DDT became the issue that launched the modern environmental movement. It was fueled by false evidence and outright lies and has since resulted in the preventable deaths of millions each year due to diseases contracted through mosquito bites. A great source for info on the sham that is the anti-DDT movement is this page at JunkScience.com. This quote from taken from the above mentioned papge is particularly shocking.

"Population control advocates blamed DDT for increasing third world population. In the 1960s, World Health Organization authorities believed there was no alternative to the overpopulation problem but to assure that up to 40 percent of the children in poor nations would die of malaria. As an official of the Agency for International Development stated, 'Rather dead than alive and riotously reproducing.'"

How in the world did these people come to be seen as having the moral high-ground in policy debates? This is not compassion or moral responsibility. Why don't those who advocate this doctrine do their part in reducing the world's population by taking their own lives rather than condemning to death millions of helpless children?
