Ted Turner pushes for one-child policy

In case you didn’t already know, Ted Turner is crazy:

Mr. Turner – a long-time advocate of population control – said the environmental stress on the Earth requires radical solutions, suggesting countries should follow China’s lead in instituting a one-child policy to reduce global population over time. He added that fertility rights could be sold so that poor people could profit from their decision not to reproduce.

“If we’re going to be here [as a species] 5,000 years from now, we’re not going to do it with seven billion people,” Mr. Turner said.

If you knew what radical environmentalists and climate alarmists really want, you’d never give them the time of day. If you’re interested in reading up on the subject, check out The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming (and Environmentalism) by Christopher Horner.

By the way, Ted Turner has five children.
