UN Agenda 21 Alternatives?

You have mentioned having concerns with what is referred to as United Nations Agenda 21. I understand the Tea-Party also has problems with it. From what I have read I do not see reason to be concerned. I understand it makes points that people do not like but not liking them does not make them untrue. It appears more a statement of common values than an "agenda" at least in my use of the word and suggests some ideas for public policy to support those values. The wording has to be innocuous if you expect countries as diverse as the United States, Russia, Bolivia, Saudi Arabia, Ghana, Laos, and let's not forget Cuba and Venezuela to get on board. No country likes it although enemies of the United States may.

 

The United States, will soon find ourselves exposed to a world we have never before experienced.

 

Recently I read that due to the drought and projected worldwide food shortages the United Nations has asked the United States to stop production of fuels based on corn. Imagine the United Nations telling the United States what to do. When you look at the carbon footprint of what it takes to produce ethanol it is not that different than its oil counterpart but friends of government are having a great pay day so stopping is out of the question. In the not so far future we will have to decide if we want water, food or fuel. We might be able to have two but not three.

 

Within the United States water is becoming scarce. Rivers are being siphoned off for irrigation i.e. water for Los Angeles or farms and ranches in states neighboring California? The Colorado River does not reach Mexico in the same volume it once did. Atlanta is under a perpetual water rationing. Remember when Georgia wanted to annex a part of Tennessee allegedly for the water it contained? If you want a sample of what we can expect from the world watch the states as we begin to fight for water. Idaho owns the top 34 feet of a water source in Wyoming. If that source drops below 34 feet is will be interesting. I can think of several things local militias could do to destroy water sources of its neighboring hindrances. 

 

From what I have read:

 

The population of the world has exceeded its ability to provide food, water, shelter for its people;

There are a fair number of failing states, meaning countries that cannot provide for their citizens some of which will soon be on world welfare or all of its citizens die or they can attack their neighbors. You choose;

Water tables are falling and farmers are losing water to cities. The Nile River will not flood as it has for centuries resulting in loss of food production in Egypt. Wait till Egypt goes after Ethiopia to stop them from taking water from the Nile;

Temperatures are rising; glaciers are shrinking; water levels are rising either cyclical or manmade it makes no difference.

Oil reserves are shrinking and in some places will run out this century; might be time to give Texas back to Mexico. While coal is abundant stabilizing climate will require phasing out its use. Kentucky and West Virginia will like that one;

Some countries have run out of usable farm land and are obtaining land in other countries to grow food for themselves. I believe the United States already bars the export of grain from such arrangements.

 

The berated point is problems of other countries will soon be our problems. On April 18, 2001, Arizona to Canada was blanketed with dust from a huge dust storm originating in China and Mongolia on April 5. 1,200 miles across when it left China the storm carried millions of tons of topsoil that will take centuries to replace. A year later on April 12, 2002, South Korea was covered by a huge dust storm from China that had the people in Seoul gasping for breath, airline flights were cancelled, and clinics were overrun with people with breathing problems and retail sales dropped. Either one of those could cause nations to go to war.

 

I do not trust the UN to save the world or the United States I do not trust the Tea-Party nor do I trust our government that cannot pass a budget.

 

Any suggestions? Suggestions have to be workable and acceptable to the majority of the citizens of the United States and their representatives and senators. I have none but make me dictator and stand back I will take care of it.

 

If you know any Tea-Party folks I would be interested in evaluating their suggestions.
