Jonathon Porritt pointy nosed eco loon

From the Times, yet more tedious ecowank.

By God if there is one think I hate it is tedious tree hugging wankers talking down their pointed noses at us in condecending tones at us; an if ever there was one then its name is Jonathon Porritt.

JONATHON PORRITT, one of Gordon Brown’s leading green advisers, is to warn that Britain must drastically reduce its population if it is to build a sustainable society.

Porritt’s call will come at this week’s annual conference of the Optimum Population Trust (OPT), of which he is patron.

The trust will release research suggesting UK population must be cut to 30m if the country wants to feed itself sustainably.

Porritt said: “Population growth, plus economic growth, is putting the world under terrible pressure.

Is it? Is it really. So answer me this then, why are people leaving the villages and heading to the big bright city lights. Simple a higher standard of living compared to that they left behind. 

As for the population questition I would like to see him maintain even the current level of population here in the UK without economic growth.

Seriously think about the sheer number of people needed to keep a society chugging along, slash a few million productive citizens out of that and watch it collapse. 

Also where are the surplus people to go? Death camps are out, all those ovens will be emitting lots of nasty CO2. Deport them, back where exactly? Many 2nd, 3rd generation migrants won't be happy about moving.

Maybe he plans to stop them breeding, really try telling that to the Catholics. Better still try getting a few radical moslems to go for that one. 

“Each person in Britain has far more impact on the environment than those in developing countries so cutting our population is one way to reduce that impact.”

Oh bollocks. Due to our higher wealth compared to developing countries we can deliver better aid and through technology defeat problems as they occur. Without our economic growth many of these nations would be worse off than they are now. Plain simple fact is that technology is developing all the time, who knows what is just around the corner gadget wise that will change our world.

Population growth is one of the most politically sensitive environmental problems. The issues it raises, including religion, culture and immigration policy, have proved too toxic for most green groups.

However, Porritt is winning scientific backing. Professor Chris Rapley, director of the Science Museum, will use the OPT conference, to be held at the Royal Statistical Society, to warn that population growth could help derail attempts to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

Rapley, who formerly ran the British Antarctic Survey, said humanity was emitting the equivalent of 50 billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year.

And the planet is doing fine thank you kindly. Compare that CO2 output to natural CO2 from volcanos etc and that is fucking small change. 

“We have to cut this by 80%, and population growth is going to make that much harder,” he said.

Have to cut it? Who the fuck went an voted you PM, come to that who the fuck voted in that snob gobbling cuntbubble come to think of it.

See these greens are the problem, they want eco technology, then want less people who's taxes will have to pay for the development and implementation of it. They oppose the digging up land for cables, for energy sources they disagree with.

Oppose transportation without explaining quite how we shall feed all our people in this land.
