Clear the air: eliminate people

The London School of Economics and Political Science is serious about this.

The best way to combat global warming is to reduce the surplus population through contraception and abortion, according to a report from the prestigious London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE).

According to the report, commissioned by the radical pro-abortion, anti-human environmentalist group, Optimum Population Trust, every £4 spent on “family planning” over the next forty years would reduce global CO2 emissions by more than a ton. This would outstrip the gains of spending on “low-carbon technologies” by £15.

“Considered purely as a method of reducing future CO2 emissions” such “family planning” methods as abortion, sterilisation and mass distribution of contraceptives, “should be seen as one of the primary methods of emissions reduction.” Basing its data on reports by UNICEF and the UNFPA on the “unmet need” for “family planning” in the developing world, the report concluded that if this need is met, 34 billion tonnes of CO2 would be “saved.”

This is what they’re doing at high levels of international strategy sessions to find global solutions to political, economic and environmental concerns. Brainstorming reports like “Fewer Emitters, Lower Emissions, Less Cost,” emitters meaning human beings.

“It’s always been obvious that total emissions depend on the number of emitters as well as their individual emissions – the carbon tonnage can’t shoot down as we want, while the population keeps shooting up.”

Which begs this response…

Telegraph columnist Gerald Warner commented that the proposal to reduce carbon emissions by reducing people does not go far enough for anti-human environmentalist extremists. “Why not save 80 billion tonnes by ending pregnancy completely? There is one sure way to prevent man-made global warming and that is to abolish man.”

Yes, and there’s a group actually calling for that, too. The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement. Their slogan:

“May we live long and die out.”

Last one to go turns off the lights. But then, they’re already in the dark.
