I can't believe it, but thanks to Grist I am kicking the ass (rhetorically)of one of the most infamous climate disaster deniers! Robert Pielke, Jr.
Reproductive rights for women pielke? That would stop the exponential growth of human populations.
You could feed, clothe, house, and medicate everyone in poverty, but without those rights, the rise in population will make it physically impossible to continue. It's the power of compound growth.
Besides the libertarian corporate freemarketeer political faction is more interested in killing as many people in poverty with wars over oil and other resources than really helping them.
The sudden interest in the well being of those in the under developed world is really all about that infamous talking point. Your comment being simply a repitition of it. It's we environmentalists that are killing the poverty stricken by opposing unlimited growth, pollution, use of toxins like DDT, chemical agribizz, nuclear power, unregulated corporate power, genetically engineered crops, and all of your other pet causes? Right?
