up so ecology trumps property rights.. In other world it's a way to steal
propery rights and displace small landowners..

correction
In other words, it's a way to steal property rights

Conservation Biology

The Green Matrix

The cover for the collectivist vision is the environment – and environmental policy. In order to use the environment to achieve a centrally planned global economy and culture, various groups and individuals took the necessary step of inventing the "science" of biocentrism and conservation biology.
To legitimize this unproven science, the Society of Conservation Biology was created by the IUCN (World Conservation Union) in 1985 and was initially funded by various foundations. The true goal of conservation biology was made clear when the journal Conservation Biology began publication in 1987. Michael Soulé, founder and then president of the Society of Conservation Biology, outlined the radical purpose of conservation biology. Soulé stated, when the Society was founded,

"We assume implicitly that environmental wounds inflicted by ignorant humans and destructive technologies can be treated by wiser humans and by wholesome technologies."

The Green Matrix
Part 2: They Blinded Us With Science

The lynx hoax did not happen in a vacuum. Blaming some puny federal bureaucrats who fudged a study while ignoring the larger institutional problem is bogus.
The problem is not that federal "scientists" cooked the data on one aspect of listing the lynx as endangered in a specific "ecosystem," but rather that the entire premise of "ecosystem" is accepted as "science" in the first place.

The Green Matrix
Part 3: Weird Science – Think Globally

The IUCN tasked Dr. Michael Soule to create the new discipline of conservation biology. Soule was a University of California professor and a Zen Buddhist.
Out of conservation biology came new "scientific" buzzwords like biocentrism, bioreserves, ecosystems and ecosystem management. But what gave these concepts wings was the proactive implementation of the restoration of species and "repairing and connecting" "ecosystems."

Fox Is on the Case
Recently, I asked Dr. Fox to explain a few terms in the lexicon of the new green science of conservation biology. Fox explains:
"Conservation biology is based on the unproven assumption that nature knows best. That all human use and activity should follow natural patterns within relatively homogenous soil-vegetation-hydrology landscapes called ecosystems."
He continues, "Since ecosystems cross man-made property lines, and since conservation biology called for holistic management of entire ecosystems to ostensibly protect the perceived fragile web of life, environmental law HAD to be superior to property rights."
Snip
The concepts of ecosystems and ecosystems management ultimately will become the Wildlands Project, which involves closing off half the land mass of the U.S. and parts of Canada and Mexico to human use. Ostensibly, it is to repair the damage done by man and to relink ecosystems, using ecomanagement. The "managers" begin in small ways to accomplish the ultimate goal. Small ways like reintroducing the wolf, grizzlies, wolverines and lynx into the intermountain West.

The "brains" behind the Wildlands Project is Dr. Soule. A graduate of San Diego State University and Stanford, Soule studied closely with Mr. Population Bomb himself, Paul Ehrlich.
Soule serves on the science advisory boards of several national and international organizations, including La Sierra Foundation, Defenders of Wildlife and The Nature Conservancy. Soule was also co-author of the original draft of the biodiversity convention.
If Congress had adopted the Treaty on Biodiversity during the Clinton reign, it would have hog-tied the United States into implementing most of U.N. Agenda 21. Don't forget, treaties (like U.N. Agenda 21) supersede the U.S. Constitution.
Without the efforts of Henry Lamb and Dr. Michael Coffman of Sovereignty International, as well as dozens of grassroots groups, the U.S. Senate would have confirmed the treaty and the United States would have been officially stuck. That treaty would have forced us to implement Wildlands.
But it doesn't matter, because the treaty is being implemented anyway. Various documents, statements and conferences promoted by U.S. "scientists" involved with federal green bureaucracies indicate they have been implementing Wildlands for some time.

What Is Weird Science?
What is conservation biology? The "Primer for Conservation Biology" says: "Conservation biology arose because none of the traditional applied disciplines are comprehensive enough by themselves to address
critical threats to biological diversity."
In his most recent tome, "Conservation Biology and the Decades Ahead," Soule relates what he considers the goals of conservation biology: "Conservation biologists typically consider preservation of species to be an ETHICAL responsibility."
The kicker here is this statement, which in fact has become U.S. land management policy: "Conservation science is employed in the service of an ETHICAL goal, the maintenance of the earth's biodiversity."
Furthermore, "Conservation practitioners may seek to restore populations of an endangered species or to reintroduce a species into parts of its range from which had been exterminated."
What should bother us is that he also says that biologists "may try to re-establish a complex ecological community in an area from which it has been eliminated."
This is the father of conservation biology telling conservation practitioners to be proactive in the name of the cause.
As Soule writes, "it will require the dedication of thousands of bioregional activists. … [R]oad building in major sections of National Forest and BLM lands will have to cease, and many existing logging roads
closed, grazing, logging, mining, recreation and some types of farming will have to go."
Voilà! In one of Bill Clinton's last major executive orders, roads on millions of acres of federal lands were closed as green activists and federal green "biologists" lent support to an approach to land management that is neither scientific nor good for land nor animals and certainly not meant for people.
Such policy is neither scientifically based nor ethical. And people are surprised when federal "scientists" fudge or manipulate data?

The job of science is not to re-establish anything. It is to objectively observe and make recommendations, and that is ALL.

Snip

According to U.N. Agenda 21, manipulation of science and events does not stop with the environment but also includes population control, controlling education with such things as Goals 2000 and School-to-Work, ad infinitum. It also embraces a "unity" religion, in which there is no real standard. It is instead a mushy mix of feel-good New Age claptrap. The ultimate goal is to dictate what people can and cannot do, where they can and cannot work, where they live, what they eat, what they say and what they OUGHT to believe. All of it is supposed to serve the collective good as judged by an elite.

Snip

Modern environmentalism has become the best single tool to fulfill the fondest wishes of the international control freaks and central planners. It is the new ideological agenda replacing communism and capitalism. It is, in fact, a lethal mix of both. Alan Caruba of the National Anxiety Center calls it "fascilism."
In implementing the various environmental wish lists, we don't get cleaner air and water. But we do get a new religion and a new economic system. In addition, the old time religion is being replaced by a green Zen Buddhism on one hand, and tyranny and repression on the other.
If you follow the logic of "ecosystem" management, that is where we're headed as we wend our way through the holistic approach for the "collective good."

Ecophilosophy, Ecosophy and The Deep Ecology Movement

The mission of ecophilosophy is to explore a diversity of perspectives on human-Nature contexts and interrelationships. It fosters deeper and more harmonious relationships between place, self, community and the natural world. This aim is furthered by comparing the diversity of ecosophies from which people support the platform principles of the global, long range, deep ecology movement

4. The flourishing of human life and cultures is compatible with a substantial decrease of human population. The flourishing of nonhuman life requires such a decrease
http://www.deepecology.org/deepmovement.html

Shallow Ecology =cleaning up pollution
Deep Ecology = Human Population reduction, so “biodiversity” can thrive.. I.E. Deep Ecology is just a "rebrand" of the old "eugenics" that caused us so much grief..

Same thing for Animal Rights.. Again a rebrand of "Eugenics"
Animal Rights means that "Human life has no more value than any other lifeform"

ECO Radicals Quotes( Brownshirts reclothed in Green??)

"Childbearing [should be] a punishable crime against society, unless the parents hold a government license.... All potential parents [should be] required to use contraceptive chemicals, the government
issuing antidotes to citizens chosen for childbearing."
-David Brower, Friends of the Earth
"The right to have children should be a marketable commodity, bought and traded by individuals but absolutely limited by the state."
-Keith Boulding, originator of the "Spaceship Earth" concept
"If radical environmentalists were to invent a disease to bring human populations back to sanity, it would probably be something like AIDS. It [AIDS] has the potential to end industrialism, which is the main force behind the environmental crises."
-Earth First! newsletter
"We in the Green movement, aspire to a cultural model in which the killing of a forest will be considered more contemptible and more criminal than the sale of 6-year-old children to Asian brothels."
-Carl Amery, Green Party of West Germany
"Phasing out the human race will solve every problem on earth, social and environmental."
Dave Forman, founder of Earth First, and presently a member of the Board of Directors for the Sierra Club http://www.off-road.com/green/ecoquote.html

AR radical quotes (Brownshirts donning Balaclavas???)

The smallest form of life, even an ant or a clam, is equal to a human being.-Ingrid Newkirk, PETA
Humanity is the cancer of nature.
The life of an ant and the life of my child should be granted equal consideration."
Michael Fox – Vice President, HSUS
Humans have grown like cancer. We're the biggest blight on the face of the planet."
Ingrid Newkirk – Founder, PETA Reader's Digest, June, 1990
I am not a morose person but I would rather not be here. I don't have any reverence for life, only for the entities themselves. I would rather see a blank space where I am. This will sound like fruitcake stuff again, but at least I wouldn't be harming anything."
Ingrid Newkirk – Founder, PETA

--Sydney Singer, director, the Good Shepherd Foundation, "The Neediest of All Animals," The Animals Agenda, Vol. 10, No. 5 (June 1990), p. 50.
"If you haven't given voluntary human extinction much thought before, the idea of a world with no people in it may seem strange. But, if you give it a chance, I think you might agree that the extinction of Homo sapiens would mean survival for millions, if not billions, of Earth-dwelling species ... Phasing out the human race will solve every problem on earth, social and environmental."
--"Les U. Knight" (pseudonum), "Voluntary Human Extinction," Wild Earth, Vol. 1, No. 2, (Summer 1991), p. 72.

--Peter Singer, as quoted in Josephine Donovan, "Animal Rights and Feminist Theory," Signs: Journal of
Women in Culture and Society, Winter 1990, p. 357.
"Animal liberationists do not separate out the human animal, so there is no rational basis for saying that a human being has special rights. A rat is a pig is a dog is a boy. They are all mammals."
--Ingrid Newkirk, national director, People for the EthicalTreatment of Animals (PeTA), as quoted in Vogue, September 1989.
"I find that as I get older I seem to become more of a Luddite... And hearing animal experimenters describe me as a Luddite-which used to think I was not. And now I think Ned Lud had the right idea and we should have stopped all the machinery way back when and learned to live simple lives." --Ingrid Newkirk, national director, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PeTA), speech at Loyola University, October 24, 1988.

PETA's 'Perfect World' – The Animals Always Come First

This leaves us with the final PETA reality, the real underlying truth of the animal rights agenda. Under their regime, there's no way we could possibly produce enough food, clothing and energy to support humanity at it's present
 population. Whenever I've debated these animal rights morons, and pointed all this out to them, when you really press them on it, they always come up with the same 'solution'; the human population must be radically reduced. They refuse to answer when you demand they explain how that can be done, but I've heard them say many, many times that a plague that wiped out most of the human population would be a good thing in the long run, because they see their fellow humans as plague on the planet, a threat to the animals and the biosphere. And in the end, PETA would perform thier own 'final solution' if they could, because no matter what it takes, the animals always come first http://www.timebomb2000.com/vb/showthread.php?s=b72fdf4f681550cf7fd3e4fb42bb7962&threadid=48814
