How Climate Change Extremism Sells Abortion (Part 1 of 2)
Tuesday, June 25, 2024 by Christine

The publication of Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring in 1962 and the ensuing rise of environmentalism in the 1960’s coincided with the start of abortion law reform. Decades have passed to the present day where an outgrowth of the environmental movement, Climate Change extremism, has become intrinsically linked with abortion. We hear modern-day climate activists espouse that killing babies and foregoing having children is good for the planet. Earth911.com states that abortion is “reproductive justice which is environmental justice. Having universal access to reproductive health services — including abortion — is good for people and nature.” Unfortunately, this dissonant messaging has been going mainstream and is becoming the war cry of many politicians and college students.

This trend is in stark contrast to the Christian worldview that families are God’s design for the human race and the bedrock foundation that holds societies together. Author and co-founder of Whole Heart Ministries, Sally Clarkson, beautifully sums up God’s intent for what society has veered far from, “Home is the foundation upon which great civilizations are built. It is the sacred dwelling where souls are forged, humans have great value, children are cherished, and marriage is regarded as holy.”

Shaming couples for having multiple children is done publicly. Not even Prince William and Kate Middleton were off limits. A children’s organization, “Having Kids,” took them to task for desiring a third child (the now four-year-old Prince Louis). Executive Director Anne Green Carter Dillard penned an open letter warning them: “Your discussion of having a larger family raises compelling issues of sustainability and equity. Large families are not sustainable." (Cambridgeshire Live, April 17, 2022)

There are young adults terrified to bring children into a world they believe will be destroyed by climate change, and there are organizations that vow to help end humanity. One of them is ‘The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement’ or VHEMT. They refer to themselves as ‘vehement,’ as in vehemently opposed to becoming mothers and fathers. Their ardent belief is that “phasing out the human species by voluntarily ceasing to breed will allow Earth’s biosphere to return to good health.” (vhemt.org)

America barely has any restraints on the slaughter of infants in the womb. Neither are there limits on how far teen girls and women will go to celebrate their abortions on social media sites and at entertainment awards shows. Even a growing number of self-proclaimed Christian abortionists say that they are doing the Lord’s work. One has said, “I feel God’s spirit and guiding hand in my work.” (The Christian Post 11/26/16) The God of the Bible says he hates the hands that shed innocent blood. (Proverbs 6:17)

Yet many of these same women weep and mourn and pump fists in protest over their belief that we only have a few years left before the planet burns up or is under water. They think this calamity can be circumvented by depopulation along with eliminating fossil fuels. Politicians, elites and celebrities alike use their platforms to paint a dire picture for the planet without urgent climate action. In a July, 2023 appearance at Coppin State University in Baltimore, Maryland, Vice President Kamala Harris called on the US to “reduce population” in an effort to combat climate change and build a “clean energy economy.” What she intended to say was reduce pollution (i.e., carbon dioxide emissions), the White House and media outlets were quick to clarify, but was heard by many as a proverbial Freudian slip of the tongue. On the contrary, the administration’s blind eye to the entry of countless millions of illegal immigrants exacerbates environmental impact and pollution -- more cars on the road and more residences to heat and cool (both of which emit “harmful” carbon dioxide), and tons of additional trash generated per year.                 

The current administration is in alignment with the depopulation agenda of the World Economic Forum founded by Klaus Schwab. He and other influential billionaires gather at Davos annually to advance plans of a world without fossil fuels, as well as a one-world government, economy and religion. Where the world saw death, isolation and shuttered small businesses, he saw opportunity to reset the economy and social order.
