Next year will be the 20th anniversary of UNCED (United Nations Conference on Environment and Development), the largest collection of environmental zealots ever assembled. For the celebration, the U.N. has again designatedRio de Janeiroto host theUNCSD(United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development).
There is no way to count the dollars that have been wasted over the last 20 years by people attending thousands of U.N. meetings around the world, all designed to strengthen global governance and tighten the noose around the people who still believe in individual freedom and free-market capitalism. The U.N. Commission on Sustainable Development is but one of many U.N. organizations and agencies that conduct multiple international meetings each year.Last month, U.N. meetings on sustainable development alone were occurring 22 of the 28 days somewhere in the world. This U.N. Commission is responsible for implementing Agenda 21 across the entire planet. They have been exceedingly successful.
For the past few years, this Commission has been conducting regional meetings every few months in preparation for the 2012 blowout in Rio. This 20-year anniversary party is expected to produce an even larger crowd than the 1992 event, and manyU.N. watchersbelieve that it will produce a new treaty.
This is not idle speculation. Folks who dare read the U.N. mumbo-jumbo illustrated byA/RES/64/236from March 31, 2010, will quickly recognize the meaning of Article 20(b), which says: "The Conference will result in a focused political document."
What is a "focused" political document? To advocates of global governance this means a legallybindingU.N. treaty. This effort has been under way since at least 1998 when a draft "Covenant on Environment and Development" was circulated by the United Nations Environment Program. Just in case the advocates cannot generate sufficient support to get a treaty or a covenant adopted at the 2012 shindig, they will be able to call the "focused political document" a plan of action, until they can build more support, and thus avoid the appearance of failure.
Skeptics who refuse to believe that sustainable development has anything to do with the U.N. should examineRIO2012, one of many official U.N.websitesthat promote sustainable development.
The concept of sustainable development has permeated all the agencies of the federal government and is washing across the nation, infecting state and local governments.
Hear this: Sustainable development has little to do with sustainability, but everything to do with government control of development. After all, what is and is not sustainable is defined by government and regulated by government. Every new rule and regulation adopted in the name of sustainable development squeezes a little more freedom from every individual and a little more profit from every business.
