A Short History of Environmentalist Predictions

I promise to make this one short.

This article by an eminent thinker Walter Williams chronicles just a few of the countless, dubious blown predictions by environmentalists over the last 100 years.

Here is a good quote to chew on..

"Our continued belief in environmentalist mistakes, manipulation, lies and fear mongering leads us to establish public policies that kill people and reduce standards of living such as CAFÉ standards that downsize autos and cause unnecessary highway deaths, energy saving regulations that produce airtight sick buildings and the international push for birth control. The next time an environmentalist warns us of disaster we ought to ask: when was the last time your prediction was right?"
