This is a perfect example of liberalism run amuck. Thousands of african die every year from lung disease, because they cook on indoor fires. Obviously, cooking on indoor fires creates alot of air pollution.

Why don’t we use cooking fires in this country? Oh yeah, we are evil and use electric ranges, fed by evil coal burning power plants.

Can Africa have power plants? Hell no - solar for them.

Can Africa damn rivers? Hell no - hurts the environment.

Can africa use DDT and other chemicals? Nope, environment again.

One of the biggest crimes of the last 50 years has been the western world’s refusal to allow Africa to develop itself, using environmentalism as an excuse. Its racist and deadly...

And now, all of the sudden, these idiots figure out that burning dung causes pollution? Whatever.

LOL! WTH are you talking about?
Name a credible source!

>Can Africa have power plants? Hell no - solar for them.
They can build all of the plants that they can afford to build.

>Can Africa damn rivers? Hell no - hurts the environment.
Of course they can - if they can afford to and have the expertise. Nobody could stop them by any means

>Can africa use DDT and other chemicals? Nope, environment again.

Sure can. IF they can produce the stuff themselves. - We don't.

I can see that you have never been to Africa and don't really know what you are talking about.
You are simply repeating someone's talking points, and I wonder what your agenda is when what you are spouting is that “the Western World is holding down Africa.”

But your point about being skeptical about liberal motivations is solid.
