It’s unconscionable for the eco-fanatics to use children in this way. But the “baby boomers” had their own “end of the world” scare-—nuclear war. We all survived that possibility (at least so far). The “eco-fanatic” scare is a lot less credible.

....The “eco-fanatic” scare is a lot less credible.

When did credibility enter the picture? This continues the redistribution of wealth and works to diminish capitalist countries who produce through the use of resources.

More from the article:

At Sherwood High School in Sandy Spring, Laura Dinerman's AP environmental science class has grown by an entire classroom each year: She started with 22 students, is teaching two classes this year and next year expects to have 66 students -- at least three classes, "if it doesn't go up," she says.

Dinerman has also seen a blossoming interest this year in the school's environmental club (mission statement: "Change the World"). Just under 10 teenagers were active last year; 90 have signed up this year, an increase helped by an aggressive marketing campaign and Al Gore's documentary "An Inconvenient Truth." Gore is this generation's Bob Dylan; "Truth" is its "Blowin' in the Wind."
