A
Democratic Congressman has called for schools and centres of
education to "promote the agenda" of climate change
and the idea that unfettered population growth is killing the
planet.
Rep. John Sarbanes (D-Md.) made the comments at
a conference hosted by the U.S. Education Department earlier
this week.
In an interview with CNS
News at the meeting titled "Sustainability
Education Summit: Citizenship and Pathways for a Green Economy",
Sarbanes said:
"...whether it’s climate change, whether
it’s population growth, whether it’s all these factors
that impact the health of our world, raising that awareness
early among young people is only going to promote the agenda."
"... it’s going to raise that awareness
of climate change that, in turn, I think, can make them stewards,
stakeholders in policy changes we have to make to try to address
climate change going forward and so, another wonderful result
that you can yield if you do this environmental education."
In other words, indoctrinate them when they're
kids, then they will support endless bloated government taxation
schemes in the name of saving the planet.
"Like I keep saying over and over again,
if you get young people invested in those ideas early on, that
will result in those kinds of positive policy developments,"
Sarbanes added.
When the CNS interviewer asked the Congressman
if he supported White House science czar John P. Holdren's stated
wish to see limitations on world population growth - outlined
in numerous writings including his 1972 publication 'Ecoscience'
- Sarbanes replied:
"Sure, there’s so much we can do in
terms of reducing our consumption of natural resources and that’s
the lowest hanging fruit right? To implement conservative measures
and so forth and again young people are in a position to help
drive that new way of thinking."

As we have continually highlighted, any dangers
associated with overpopulation are the stuff of fantasy, cooked
up by elite social engineers such as the Club
of Rome.
The desire to see depopulation instituted as policy
has more in common with the discredited pseudo-philosophy of
Malthus than it does any basis in scientific fact.
