The Next Added 100 Million - Part 18 ( Environmental Refugees )

By Frosty Wooldridge

1-27-7

With continued U.S. population growth rates, California tops an added

20 million by 2035. Texas grows by 12 million by 2025. Every

state suffers its share of the next added 100 million people.

Some experts, Vanderbilt University, tell us that U.S. population

stands at 327 million people, and the growth-rate is even faster, so

we will reach 400 million sooner - by 2020-2030.

As you can see, California, already at 37.5 million, absorbs the

lion's share of this population "Human Katrina." At each stage along

the way, as those 20 million additional people hit that state, what do

you think will happen?

Is it not possible that people will fight with one-another for the

shrinking natural resources?

How about water? How about clean air- California smog? How about

farmland? How about growing-fields sanitization? How about traffic?

How about housing? How about schools? How about standard of living?

How about quality of life? How about greenhouse gases? How about

grid-lock?

Ever hear the sound of a toilet flushing? Ever see one backed up? Ever

see and smell the results of both? How many times can you expand a

sewage-treatment plant? Where do you put the trash? That's California

population-density in twenty odd years.

"Environmental Refugees"

What can we expect from adding 100 million? Call them "environmental

refugees," for lack of a better term. You can bet your bottom dollar

they're coming to America. If you doubt me, just travel to the Mexico

border, and watch the "pulgas" that come across illegally every night.

Only 20 percent are interdicted.

Human beings become environmental refugees when they exceed the

carrying capacity of that portion of the planet that supported them.

Religion and Population-Growth Impacts

For better or worse, the Catholic and Islam-Muslim churches encourage

unlimited birth rates. With more numbers come more power, and more

money for the churches.

If you look at the results on the world stage, environmental refugees

stream into Europe out of Africa and the Middle East. If you look at

Central and South America along with Mexico, those same refugees

stream into the U.S. at an accelerating rate of speed.

Can realities like starvation and deaths from overpopulation change

religious doctrine based on books written 2,000 years ago? It's not

likely. Even in the face of severe environmental consequences, do not

look for the Pope to change his stand. Neither will any Muslim leader

stand up against 1,600 years of doctrine. Ancient religions lock

followers into the past.

The most frightening aspect of the next added 100 million Americans

stems from the fact that they won't be Americans. Do they speak

English? Which national flag hangs in their home in the U.S.? Where

does their primary allegiance rest?

Mexico grew from 50 million to 104 million in the last century. At

the minimum, Mexico's growth will exceed 300 million by 2095, if not

sooner. If they can't feed, clothe and house countless millions

today, what can we expect when they triple their population?

Why is the U.S. the Lifeboat to the World's Unfortunates?

No less than 30 to 90 million destitute Mexicans -- if they can't

feed, water and clothe themselves -- will move out of their country in

the 21st century into the United States. Over 12-19 million Mexicans

have already moved into the U.S. As their conditions worsen in their

home country, millions more will migrate. Major portions of Central

America will migrate with the Mexicans, leaving similar situations.

"The vision of a world teeming with environmental refugees is

daunting, even for wealthy countries such as the United States," said

John Cairns, University Distinguished Professor of Environmental

Biology at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University,

Blacksburg, Virginia.

"When countries capable of absorbing refugees are at or beyond their

carrying capacity, every individual on the planet becomes a potential

refugee with no place to go. The world's human population is

increasing at 77 million net gain per year, but natural

support-systems are decreasing."

Ecological Footprint Growing Dangerously

For every human added to the USA, at the current standard of living,

12.5 acres of land must be destroyed in order to build houses,

schools, grow food, add roads, malls, hospitals and other

infrastructure. It's called the "ecological footprint." As you can

see, it's stomping around at an ever increasing rate of speed as

numbers are added to the USA and other successful nations.

"It's abundantly clear that many countries have exceeded their

carrying capacity, and can only survive by exporting surplus

populations," Cairns said.

Additionally, since the United States, with five percent of the

world's population, creates 25 percent of greenhouse gases -- will we

take responsibility for environmental refugees flooded out of their

countries or islands by rising oceans from global warming? That number

could reach into the hundreds of millions.

Global Warming - Ocean Levels Rising - Resource-Competition Wars

At the same time, what about our own refugees if global warming floods

Florida?

"It is becoming increasingly probable there will be teaming millions

of environmental refugees -- it will mean that we were terribly wrong

about the carrying capacity of the world for our species," Cairns

said. "Disease, starvation and resource-competition wars will

doubtless occur -- but the root cause will be a social disequilibrium

resulting from overpopulation and bad long-term management of natural

capital."

With the world adding 77 million people annually, that equals 3.08

billion more by 2047.

We presently stand at 6.5 billion in 2007. In 40 years, the human

race will be pushing ten billion people. As mentioned before, we've

got 10.5 million children under 10 years of age dying annually of

starvation or starvation related diseases. In addition, an average of

eight million adults die of starvation annually. As mentioned

previously, we suffer 3.5 million homeless in the United States today.

Have you traveled to the border of Mexico recently? From Brownsville,

Texas to San Diego, California on our side of the border they build

shanty towns of cardboard and wooden pallets. Have you seen the

hundreds of tons of trash, garbage, bottles, cans, cars, human waste,

clothes and filth? Have you seen the 'colonias' that add tens of

thousands of Mexico's poor annually? Did you know the New York Times

predicted colonias, which mean 'new colonies', will grow to 20 million

by 2021?

Do you understand that when a Third World person reaches America,

their 'ecological footprint' changes from zero to 10 as soon as they

take a job, buy a car, rent a house, buy goods and produce waste? This

occurs into the millions with legal and illegal immigration annually

in 2007.

Environmental refugees that survive will converge on America and other

successful Western societies at all costs.

We Can Awaken - STOP the Onslaught - BUT, WILL WE?

That number could be reduced:

1. When world leaders accept that infinite population growth on a

finite planet is not possible.

2. Humans are dependent upon this planet's ecological support

systems, which they cannot continue to damage without suffering severe

consequences.

3. When leaders understand that achieving sustainable use of the

planet will not be possible if human population and/or per capita

consumption continues increasing.

4. If humans can't or won't come to balance, nature's means of

famine, disease, wars and chaos will do the job brutally. (Cairn)

5. Birth control is the only human solution that assures we remain

sustainable on a finite planet.

The most astounding aspect of this series -- that ties my mind in

knots -- stems from the fact that the average citizen doesn't seem to

have a clue about what's coming -- and not one national leader will

address it.

Why? Money! Follow the money. Every time any environmental shock wave

surfaces -- like global warming, fisheries collapsing, species

extinctions and oil depletion -- our leaders think of a dozen ways to

obfuscate, cloud, deny or ignore our accelerating calamity.

Meanwhile, citizens go about their business completely clueless.

Are We Willing to Change?

Can we stem this impending environmental refugee flood? We better! We

are NOT the world's lifeboat - two billion world citizens desire to

come to the U.S.

First world countries must provide economic assistance to overloaded

countries. Most important, they must provide advanced birth control to

stop the cycle of poverty and overpopulation. Citizens of the world

must be helped in their own countries.

As in the past, until another "Hurricane Katrina" knocks American

society upside the head with a whopping sledge hammer-- cultural and

social changes of the magnitude illustrated in this series- won't be

heeded.

While Americans may ignore nature, nature won't ignore America.

The United States tiptoes along the edge of a dangerous cliff in 2007.

Americans have been skipping along that cliff for 50 years. At least

two billion of the earth's humans live on less than $3 each per day.

Very few Americans comprehend that kind of existence. I've seen it and

it's ugly, depressing and growing by 77 million annually.

We're seeing environmental refugees stream into America from Mexico,

Central America, India, China, Africa and a hundred other countries.

They've added 106 million people to our country in the past 42 years.

Are you ready for the next 100 million in 33 years -- and then, the

next 100 million added in 25 years. The rate of growth is increasing

exponentially.

Whether you are ready or not, they're coming to America.

What you can do for a better future for your country:

A republican form of government is not a spectator sport. It means you

must jump in, roll up you sleeves and take personal and collective

action. Of course, you could let a dictator take over and do

everything for you, but that path would give you Cuba, China, North

Korea and other unsavory examples.

We must 'sour the milk.' Bring out your points in the call:

1. America cannot support another 100 million people added to our

country in 34 years, i.e., water crisis, resource depletion, air

pollution, gridlock, loss of quality of life, etc.

2. America cannot support lawbreakers being given citizenship.

3. America must maintain our English language.

4. America wants only legal immigrants who play by the rules and

speak English.

5. America's working poor deserve a chance at jobs taken by illegals.

6. America already has too many people and I support a 10 year

moratorium on all immigration.

7. Americans must maintain our schools for our children.

8. We can no longer tolerate 350,000 birthright citizens (anchor

babies) annually that subtract from our own citizens.

9. Attrition through enforcement by stopping their ability to wire

money home, obtain rental housing and jobs.

10. An amnesty failed in 1986, and it will only be worse today. We're

being displaced out of our jobs and out of our own country.

Call with relentless and never-give-up passion.

To reduce illegal aliens in your community, you may follow the course

of action by Mayor Louis Barletta of Hazelton, PA. He offers a bomb

proof ordinance that takes business licenses away from those who hire

illegals. He legally halts landlords from renting to illegals. Without

work and without housing, illegals cannot stay in your community.
