Climate change disaster is upon us, warns UN
· Emergency relief chief calls for swift action
· 12 out of 13 'flash' appeals in 2007 related to weather
"The battle to feed humanity is over. In the 1970s, the world
will undergo
famines. Hundreds of millions of people are going to starve to
death in
spite of any crash programs embarked upon now. Population control
is the
only answer."
"a minimum of ten million people, most of them
children, will starve to death during each year of the 1970s. But
this is a
mere handful compared to the numbers that will be starving before
the end of
the century"
"By 1985 enough millions will have died to reduce
the earth's population to some acceptable level, like 1.5 billion
people."
He added that by 1980 the United States would see its life
expectancy drop
to 42 because of pesticides, and by 1999 its population would
drop to 22.6
million. In the seventies, Ehrlich envisioned the President
dissolving
Congress "during the food riots of the 1980s," followed by the
United States
suffering a nuclear attack for its mass use of insecticides.
"Our position requires that we take immediate action at home and
promote
effective action worldwide. We must have population control at
home,
hopefully through changes in our value system, but by compulsion
if
voluntary methods fail."
"luxury taxes could be placed on layettes,
cribs, diapers, diaper services, [and] expensive toys..." and
suggested
giving "responsibility prizes" to couples who went at least five
years
without having children or to men who got vasectomies. He called
for setting
up a federal Bureau of Population and Environment to oversee
reducing U.S.
population growth.
Paul Ehrlich is the modern version of |Thomas Malthus| -- the
most visible
and persistent predictor of mass famine and economic catastrophe.
Unlike
Malthus, though, Ehrlich doesn't seem to learn from his mistakes;
when one
of his predictions of disaster fails to come true, Ehrlich simply
moves on
and makes other predictions of disaster, constantly pushing back
the
timetable for massive world famine, perhaps in the desperate hope
that if he
keeps predicting the same thing, eventually pure chance will
fulfill the
conditions he requires.

Ahahahahahahahahaha... Stupid KKKonservative KKKlown. A trendline skirts
across the top of the data leaving equal portions of the data above and
below. In this instane 10 dots above, and 14 below as a result of the crude
nature of ascii graphics. Nevertheless it represents the best line that can
be fitted to the data based on minimizing the square of the distance between
the line and the real data. It's called a least squares curve fit.
You are completely ignorant when it comes to statistics and mathematics in
general aren't you Bonzo.
Ahahahahahaha.. You don't know what statistics are, where it comes from,
how it is used, or how to use it, and yet in your vast ignorance, you seem
to think that you know more about science than all of the worlds scientists.
"Voodoo statistics" Ahahahahahahahah... You need to go back to public
school and take a refresher course in basic technical literacy.
Stupid... Stupid.. KKKonservative KKKlown....

No? Lets plot the data and find out shall we? Here it is along with the
best linear fit to the data shown as "o".
1998 14.57 *********************o*****
1999 14.33 *****************>>>>o

Look at all those "o"'s lined up there. The trend is up, Up, UP.
So Bonzo, who is paying you to post lies to this newsgroup?
