Via College Fix:
A renowned University of California-Riverside professor recently advised students to save Mother Earth, eat vegetarian, only have 1.5 kids - two at the most – take up social justice causes, and “lower your standard of living.”
Biology Professor Richard Cardullo – recently tapped by several federal agencies to assist with redeveloping how college students across the nation study life science – offered the advice to a room full of middle school students as part of the university’s online science lecture series, recorded on the campus earlier this year. A video of his talk is posted on YouTube.
He began his 50-minute lecture, “Is Earth Overpopulated,” by painting a picture that the planet doesn’t have the room or resources for more and more humans, yet that’s the direction in which it’s headed. [...]
Cardullo ultimately advocates family planning for the task.
“That means your generation and the next generation, if they are committed to doing this, would mean having family sizes that on the average are 1-and-a-half children, or two,” he said. “Some would have one, some would have two. It would be 50/50.”
Cardullo’s lecture then morphed into somewhat of a sexual education seminar, explaining to the students on a cellular level how sperm fertilizes an egg, and how scientists study new ways to stop that from happening.
“Sperm is a vector … which leads to increased populations, so many scientists want to know, ‘Are there new ways we can control population or fertility rates?’ … so individuals can make the decisions to keep those rates low,” he said. “We are talking about controlling human fertility.”
Ping!
Shouldn’t you lead by example? Somehow, I’ll wager that he is referring to “everyone else”.
Lower your standard of living! Meanwhile the pr!ck is probably making $100K as a college professor. Kill your own sperm, sleazeball!
I recommend Carullo kill his father’s sperm retroactive to his birth.
Come’on guy — if you believe in what you say then reduce the strain on Mother Earth by one: yourself.
Between the truth and what this professor is saying, is a vas deferens.
Yikes!
I am on a plane and I guess the bad Internet connection 4X-d my post :(
I thought all the Heaven’s Gate people were dead
It pains me that I once held the title “professor.” To have it associated with that vapid Obamahole pains me no end.
Brings to mind alternatives for saving the earth by eliminating useless beings incapable of doing more than spouting obamastuff whilst consuming O2.
Is it me, or is WHITE folks who seem concerned about overpopulation?
He actually never says “kill your sperm” the headline writer is a yellow dog journalist
They gave themselves the power to sterilize minors w/o their parent’s permission in Okill’emcare.
They propagandize the heads full of mush to think their mere existence - the CO2 they exhale - is killing all the cute furry critters...
Watermelons are criminally insane people.
Jimmy Carter is that you? Especially the “lower your standard of living.”” part.
“Got sweater”? (a Jimmy Carter reference for those who don't remember)
He should take his show to places like India
