U. N. Agenda 21 - The Global Vision

After intense and careful research of the voluminous materials available pertaining to the United Nations Agenda 21 initiative, I will attempt to summarize the scope and impact of this on the world, our nation and our state and local communities.

I am referring the reader here to a pamphlet from Freedom Advocates entitled Understanding Sustainable Development – Agenda 21, that comprehensively explains the origins and goals of Agenda 21.

I will start with an answer to the question – What Is Sustainable Development?

In a statement issued during the 1987 United Nations World Commission on Environment and Development in the Brundtland Report entitled Our Common Future:

"Development that meets the needs of the present

 without compromising the ability of future

 generations to meet their own needs.”

Agenda 21 was unveiled in 1992 during the Rio Earth Summit, where more than 178 nations adopted it. President George H. W. Bush was the signatory for the United States.

In 1993 President Clinton established, by Executive Order 12852, the President’s Council on Sustainable Development (PCSD) for the purpose of implementing Agenda 21 in the United States.

The concept of Agenda 21 has been considered with negativity in some circles, so you may not hear this exact terminology. Be aware that when you hear such terms as sustainability, smart growth, smart power, nation-building, comprehensive planning, growth management, green anything, these are terms that are synonymous with Agenda 21.

This is a battle between Individual Rights as we understand them and as are enumerated in our Declaration of Independence, and Community Rights, as defined in the U. N. Declaration of Human Rights.

Implementing sustainable development will affect every area of life according to these three objectives: Equity – Using the Law to Restructure Human Nature, Economy - The International Redistribution of Wealth and the Creation of Public/Private Partnerships, and Environment – Nature Above Man.

Educating the Youth to Mold the Minds of Tomorrow – Be very aware of what your children and grandchildren are being taught in their schools. They are impressionable and the drafters of this agenda know it. I have spoken to some children and they actually believe that climate change is anthropogenic (man-made) and the earth will probably be destroyed by the time they are grown. Man-made climate change is not settled science, and to have our children being taught this as fact is irresponsible and should not be permitted.

Stakeholder Councils – Restructuring American Government -

Every local government or county in America now has Sustainable Development directives guided by federal agencies, International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). These are usually initiated by local public officials (county commissioners or city council members) a local non-profit organization or Non-Government Organizations (the Sierra Club, the National Audubon Society, the Nature Conservancy, the American Planning Association, and the National Teachers Association). If you look at the The Environmental Commission of Hillsborough County you will find quite a bit of information about what is going on right here in the Tampa Bay area. They have their very own Office of Sustainability where, if you go into their report entitled Energy Management and Sustainability Workgroup , on page 8 you can calculate your very own carbon footprint! Isn’t that great?

Funding for Agenda 21 comes from you, the taxpayer, the aforementioned NGO’s, and also several tax-exempt family foundations. These include The Rockefeller Foundation, Pew Charitable Trusts, the Turner Foundation, the David and Lucille Packard Foundation, the James Irvine Foundation, the Carnegie Foundation, the McArthur Foundation, and Community Foundations.

It must be clearly understood that this is neither a Democrat nor Republican issue, liberal or conservative, or left vs. right. It is most assuredly a non-partisan issue.

If you desire more information regarding this issue, I have discovered this very comprehensive report entitled The Global Vision For A Sustainable Future that goes into detailed information regarding all of the tentacles of this insidious and mostly unknown plan for your life. This is my attempt to educate as many people as I can in an effort to thwart the people who are attempting to control your every activity and bring us all into a global One World Order.

In my next article I will get into some details about what is occurring here in the United States in our government's push towards a "sustainable environment."
