Another Final Wake Up Call - This Time We Mean It!

The UN has come out with another of its weird reports on the state of the environment and, no shock here, it is "the final wake-up call to the international community."

Tick...Tick...Tick...
As if we can take this seriously. The UN and their enviro-boob friends have been giving "final wake-up calls" for so long that I long ago hit the snooze button and called reception to tell them not to bother.

Who exactly is in this "international community?" Nobody agrees on anything, and nothing ever gets done. It might take a village to raise a Clinton kid, but the UN hasn't even managed to construct a mud hut without screwing it up, swindling cash, and letting people get massacred before their very eyes.

In their latest report, the UN tells us that there are too many people on the planet, and that the Earth can't sustain humanity's growing population. They then go on to report that children are dying at an alarming rate, and that people in Africa will starve to death in short order.

So which is it? Too many people, or too many people dying? They're opposites of the same pole, so if one is bad, the other must be good.

Starvation, by the way, is never caused by a food shortage. There's tons of food lying around. Famine has always been caused by political regimes keeping food from people, not by people wandering into a desert and realizing that there's nothing to grow so they might as well sit down and die. The UN could try to do something about thug regimes not feeding people, but they're too busy writing bogus reports on climate change. Not as messy that way.

I especially love the line in the UN's report that claims humans aren't leaving enough areas alone to nature. And here I was thinking that homo sapiens are a part of nature.

The UN jokesters never get tired of issuing "final wake-up calls." Us, the patient idiots, never seem to get tired of hearing them.

Wake me when it's over.
