Remember when "EARTH DAY" started? Well, back then the ecologists were making all kinds of dire predictions - including predicting mass starvation, the end of oil, and "global cooling!" EUROTA has compiled the facts and laid out a stunning little post comparing the predictions to REALITY. CHECK IT OUT!
BY THE WAY: was the Left ever RIGHT about ANYTHING!? Nope. They weren't. In fact, most of the scary scenarios that the eco-Left predicted would occur DIDN'T happen precisely because China and India and eastern Europe became MORE like the USA, not less. The major reason the world is better fed and richer now than it was then is because Rao in India and Teng Tsiao Peng in China both stepped AWAY from statism/socialism/Leftism and introduced free-markets. The precise thing the Left BLAMED for causing their "phantom fears" and false predictions (starvation, natrual resource depletion, etc) was what actually PREVENTED IT. The Left wasn't just wrong; they were 180DEGREES WRONG! They are on most things.
