Report: Uncontrolled Immigration May Ruin The Environment

March 19, 2010 by Personal Liberty News Desk

Report: Uncontrolled immigration may ruin the environmentA newly released policy brief from Progressives for Immigration Reform (PFIR) contains a warning about the ecological impact of United States population growth.

The report, entitled From Big to Bigger, How Mass Immigration and Population Growth Have Exacerbated America’s Ecological Footprint, examines the impact that uncontrolled growth and high immigration levels are having on the country’s natural environment, and provides scientific evidence for why America is exhausting its natural resources.

Among its major findings, the article reveals that even as the U.S. ecological footprint continues to increase, the Earth’s biocapacity is decreasing. Moreover, if current growth trends continue, the American population will increase 43 percent by 2050, and 82 percent of that growth will result from immigration.

“[We are] living well beyond [our] ecological means and rapid population growth driven primarily by high immigration levels is aggravating the country’s ecological deficit,â€

It’s only about over-throwing WASP Americans to bring in the New Marxist World Order under Obama! Watch!

This warning is a bit late! There are vast tracts in Arizona that the illegals have virtually destroyed! Anyone who thinks the immigrants whether legal or otherwise should be allowed here is a fool, and should have to live in the trash and garbage the foreigners bring in. They will go fishing, throw garbage into the rivers and lakes, toss unwanted fish on the bank to rot, answer nature’s call anywhere–even in children’s playgrounds, and will go dumpster diving anywhere they may be! YES! Immigration on any level is a threat to our environment! Look at what the drug cartels have done to Sequoia National Park–the trees are dying because the cartels are stealing the water! Just what do people want? To have a pretty nation with wonderful parks and monuments, or a nationwide garbage dump?

This is why we must get healthcare passed so we can control the population! After that let’s build some green schools and federal buildings. Oh, and we promise not to print out any more 2,000 page bills because we’re killing the forests.

The healthcare bill as it is being shoved down the throats of law abiding Americans, is going to bring in MORE immigrants, once we give the ILLEGALS here, amnesty, more will come in droves. Also, this bill goes AGAINST OUR CONSTITUTION and if it gets passed, we will no longer be a free nation or a nation under GOD.
Barack Hussein needs to be impeached. He does not want out CONSTITUTION intact. He is set on destroying it!

We need immigration ! (legal that is) If it was not for immigration our population would diminish like it does in Russia. We should set strict requirements for immigration to this great country of ours. requirements that make good future citizens. the same requirements I had to go through when I immigrated here. All these laws and requirements from 24 years ago are still in place. we just don’t enforce them. That is the problem and it needs to be fixed.

People,this is sick!!!
It is difficult to find right words to describe the “illnessâ€

It already is! I can't tell you how much trash I see on the roads and in parks and it was not like that when I was a child.

Third world people don't know what a trash can is and have even less desire to use it.

[quote]Illegal Immigrants Can Pick Lettuce, But They Can’t Pick Up Their Own Trash?

Note to illegals: For Pete’s sake! Clean up after yourselves! Where do you think you are? Mexico or something?

The latest battle in the war on illegal immigration isn’t over the smuggling of undocumented workers, it’s over the trash they leave behind.

Government officials and border activists say the garbage dumped in the desert by illegal immigrants and their smugglers is staggering.

And the cleanup is costing taxpayers millions.

In 2006 alone, more than 1.18 million pounds of trash was collected along southern Arizona border, many in the meeting spots where immigrants rest, change clothes and wait to hitch a ride further north with a smuggler.

“You can find everything,â€

I have pictures of the trash that illegals leave behind when they cross our borders; but I cant figure out how to post them
can anyone help?
