I don’t think many people even know this is a huge problem.
Remember back in the 70s when it was actually a big deal?
As yes, the 1970s, the Enviros' heyday! When we were treated to
the wisdom of Paul Ehrlich:
The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now. At this late date nothing can prevent a substantial increase in the world death rate
... a minimum of ten million people, most of them children, will starve to death during each year of the 1970s. But this is a mere handful compared to the numbers that will be starving before the end of the century ...
By 1985 enough millions will have died to reduce the earth's population to some acceptable level, like 1.5 billion people.
In ten years [i.e., 1980] all important animal life in the sea will be extinct. Large areas of coastline will have to be evacuated because of the stench of dead fish.
I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000.
Ahhhhhh ... those were the days .......
Evidently JPR's
boomers never grew up, and never noticed that all the Enviros' 1960s-1970s apocalyptic pronouncements of doom failed to happen. I did. As did many others who figured out that the Enviros are just
panic-mongers-for-profit-and-power. Those JPR boomers are sadly unperceptive.

12. There's now antibiotic-resistant Gonorrhea – Progress!
Coming from the people who preach and practice sexual promiscuity as a lifestyle, that is really rich! These are the people who have to decide how much to tell each new partner the first time they hook up ... and wonder how much, in turn, they aren't being told. These are the people - the males - who who have a permanent nagging selfish qualm of some day hearing, "Knock! Knock! Knock! ... You don't know me, but ... Hi, Dad!"
I don't wish pain and disease on anyone, but in the real world foolish choices have fools' consequences.
