“Respect and care
for the community of life”
-
Respect Earth and life in all its diversity (Protect
the delta smelt in California by dumping fresh water into the ocean while an
entire state is experiencing drought?)
-
Care for the community of life with
understanding, compassion, and love
-
Build democratic societies that are just,
participatory, sustainable, and peaceful (Is it statistically true that
democratic societies are peaceful, just, and do not go to war but
constitutional republic do? Where is the evidence?)
-
Secure Earth’s bounty and beauty for present and
future generations (Would that be accomplished by taking arable land out of
production, re-wild it, and then restrict human habitation to designated urban
areas as evidenced by the Biodiversity map also known as the Wildlands Project map?)

“Ecological
integrity”
-
Adopt at all levels sustainable development
plans and regulations that make environmental conservation and rehabilitation
integral to all development initiatives (This is definitely in full swing in
all the Green Growth, Smart Growth Initiatives of Agenda 21 that restrict
zoning to multi-purpose high rise living, particularly in the U.S.)
-
Adopt patterns of production, consumption, and
reproduction that safeguard Earth’s regenerative capacities, human rights, and
community well-being (Would U.N. decide the patterns of production,
consumption, and reproduction?)
-
Ensure universal access to health care that
fosters reproductive health and responsible reproduction (Who exactly decides
what is responsible reproduction and what is not and how will it be enforced?)
-
Adopt lifestyles that emphasize the quality of
life and material sufficiency in a finite world (Who becomes the arbiter of
lifestyle and what constitute material sufficiency?)
-
Act with restraint and efficiency when using
energy, and rely increasingly on renewable energy sources such as solar and
wind” (Who decides what ‘restraint’ is in using energy and what is the cutoff
when use is disallowed?)
- Eradicate poverty as an ethical, social, and
environmental imperative
- Promote the equitable distribution of wealth
within nations and among nations (Redistribution of wealth is already underway,
from producers to non-producers.)
-
Affirm gender equality and equity as
prerequisites to sustainable development and ensure universal access to
education, health care, and economic opportunity (This gender equality and
equity seems to be working well in the Muslim world dictatorships.)
- Uphold the right of all, without discrimination,
to a natural and social environment supportive of human dignity, bodily health,
and spiritual well-being, with special attention to the rights of indigenous
peoples and minorities” (If it’s universal access, isn’t it discriminatory to
give special attention to certain groups? What kind of ‘right of all’ are they
talking about?)
“Democracy, Nonviolence,
and Peace”
- Provide all, especially children and youth, with
educational opportunities that empower them to contribute actively to
sustainable development (Empower youth to do what with sustainable
development?)
- Treat all living beings with respect and
consideration (Would animals receive lawyers to make sure humans treat animals
with ‘respect and consideration?’)
- Demilitarize national security system to the
level of a non-provocative defense posture, and convert military resources to
peaceful purposes, including ecological restoration (Who decides what
constitutes levels of non-provocative defense posture and how military
resources will be converted to peaceful purposes?)
- Eliminate nuclear, biological, and toxic weapons
and other weapons of mass destruction, Ensure that the use of orbital and outer
space supports environmental protection and peace http://www.earthcharterinaction.org/content/pages/Read-the-Charter.html
And who is going to do all this global governance (control)
of the Earth through sustainable development, the lynchpin of U.N. Agenda 21?
United Nations, of course, run by none other than third world nations, the very
beneficiaries of this wealth redistribution through “justice and peace” scheme.
I would not exactly call wealth confiscation from the
producers to the non-producers “justice” or “peaceful.” I would call it unjust
and coercive seizure of earned wealth under the guise of saving the planet from
a non-existent environmental meltdown. The constant loud rhetoric
coming from the progressive main stream media, academia, and crony capitalists
has created a very rich and lucrative climate change industry worth trillions.
“In order to build a sustainable global community, the
nations of the world must renew their commitment to the United Nations, fulfill
their obligations under existing international agreements, and support the
implementation of Earth Charter principles with an international legally
binding instrument on environment and development.”
On the occasion of the Earth Charter’s 15 years of sustainable
global governance indoctrination, the Earth Charter is planning activities and
propaganda around the globe to push further its “universal ethical principles
of sustainable development under the slogan, “One Earth Community, One Common
Destiny” and the banner “Earth Charter +15.”
The Earth Charter was launched on June 29, 2000 in the
Peace Palace in The Hague, Netherlands. The partners of the Earth Charter are

Mikhail Gorbachev, the co-author of The Earth Charter
wrote, “I envisage the principles of The Earth Charter to be a new form of the Ten
Commandments. They lay the foundation for a sustainable global earth community.”
The citizens of various countries who believe in the Biblical Ten Commandments
must reorient their entire lives to fit this new directive of progressive global
governance.
According to the United Nations Commission on Global
Governance, “Regionalism must precede globalism. We foresee a seamless system
of governance from local communities, individual states, regional unions, and
up through to the United Nations itself.” What a neat Ponzi scheme of wealth
redistribution in the name of saving the Earth from man-made Armageddon!
If you wonder about this new world order, here is a
simple explanation how they are doing it. “The alternative to the existing
world order can only emerge as a result of a new human dimension of progress.
We envision a revolution of the mind, a new way of thinking,” said Mikhail
Gorbachev at the State of the World Forum. Schools have been quite busy in the
last forty years indoctrinating children into the global governance new way of
thinking and the global citizen mindset.
The 2015 Canberra Conference on Earth System Governance, “Democracy and Resilience in the
Anthropocene,” will offer a Summer
School on Earth System Governance (December 9-12, 2015) and an excursion to
Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve (December 13, 2015).
According to the Smithsonian, “Anthropocene has become an environmental buzzword ever since the atmospheric chemist and
Nobel laureate Paul Crutzen popularized it in 2000.” Environmental activists
have blamed “man” (anthropo) and “new”
(cene) for causing extinction of
plants and animals and polluting the planet through man’s industrial revolution,
having changed the atmosphere and the climate irreversibly. http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/what-is-the-anthropocene-and-are-we-in-it-164801414/#RApVwdO4tHMSkqrT.99
The newest title in the Earth System Governance series is
available from MIT Press, “Consensus and
Global Environmental Governance: Deliberative Democracy in Nature’s Regime,”
exploring “the practical and conceptual implications of juristic democracy as a
new approach to international environmental governance.” More global governance
publications and abstracts can be found at www.earthsystemgovernance.org/publications
If you are wondering what “juristic democracy” is and
what it has to do with the environment, you are not alone. I don’t think that “consensus”
has a place in science and science reasoning; “consensus” means general agreement
of opinion, it is not a scientific fact.
According to its website, “The Earth System Governance Project is the
largest social science research network in the area of governance and global
environmental change.” The researchers include “social and natural
scientists.” http://www.earthsystemgovernance.org/
The Sustainable Development buzz word that is now used in
every facet of our lives has been defined in 1987 by the World Commission on
Environment and Development (also known as the Brundtland Commission) report titled
‘Our Common Future.’ Sustainable Development is “Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising
the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”
United Nations agencies working against the economic
needs and wishes of U.S. citizens compiled a blueprint for achieving
sustainable development called U.N. Agenda 21. This 40 chapter document (about
300 pages) addresses every facet of human life and how sustainable development
should be implemented through local, state, and federal government. With its
grant-making power (‘visioning grants’ and ‘challenge grants’) and conservation
easements (lower taxes in exchange for taking land out of agricultural use or
any use for several years or in perpetuity) , the federal government promoted the
sustainable development idea and policies to the state and local levels with
the creation of an army of new community of sustainable development NGOs
(non-government organizations) such as the American Planning Association, the
Sustainable Resource Center, and the Institute for Sustainable Development.
There is not one level of government left in the U.S. or university that does
not have a Sustainable Development plan in place or a degree program that
involves the phrase Sustainable Development.
