Environmental fearmongers scaring kids

This is one reason why we need to curb all the environmental fear mongering. Kids are terrified the earth will be unlivable when they grow up. These fears are unnecessary because the earth will go on with or without us:

There’s a new bogeyman lurking in the closet, and this one isn’t imaginary. Us. One out of three children aged 6 to 11 fears that Ma Earth won’t exist when they grow up, while more than half—56 percent—worry that the planet will be a blasted heath (or at least a very unpleasant place to live), according to a new survey.

Commissioned by Habitat Heroes and conducted by Opinion Research, the telephone survey polled a national sample of 500 American preteens—250 males and 250 females.

On a sliding scale of anxieties, minority kids have it worst; 75 percent of black children and 65 percent of Hispanic children believe that the planet will be irrevocably damaged by the time they reach adulthood.

Just imagine how a child feels when he hears an environmental wacko  say that we are destroying the earth. They don’t realize that what these environmentalists are saying is untrue or exaggerated.

Interestingly enough, kids vex over the state of the planet, especially when it came to safe and clean air and water, regardless of any pro-environmental measures on the part of their parents.

This is probably due to the fact that these fears are also peddled in their schools.

Add to this statistic all the kids who are being taught an “end times” theology and you have a lot of kids walking around in fear the world could come to an end or be destroyed in their life times. What a terrible burden to put on a child.
