Steffen Hentrich at the “Thinking For Freedom”, blog of the (Classic) Liberal Institute Friedrich Naumann Foundation For Freedom brings our attention to this Youtube Video by Ronald Bailey (Reason Magazine) und Julian Morris (International Policy Network) which features the Top 5 Environmental Disasters That Never Happened.
Enviro-leftists have a talent for concocting scare stories about mass environmental disaster, and thus stampeding the public into destrcutive policy-making that always ends up killing millions of poor people. Eventually, the scare story gets exposed as a hoax, and the media look like a bunch of thoughtless dupes.
You’d think these enviro-madmen would eventually learn something from their terrible mistakes. Well, you’d be dead wrong. In fact, they seem to get a kick out it, a ghoulish delight, and so they simply go on and concoct new schemes to stampede people into self-destruction.
The latest of course is catastrophic man-made climate change precipitated by the burning of fossil fuels. And now as man attempts to scale back use of fossil fuels, the poor once again are getting hammered the hardest.
I really believe too many of these enviro-crackpots are evil and diabolical, especially when you listen to how they talk about human population – referring to people as parasites, scourges – a disease to the planet. One could arguably call them “green genocidists”. Yes, I’m getting myself worked up. Here are Reason Magazine’s The top 5 diasters that never happened:
