CNN favorite Don Lemon provided the perfect example of how an elitist acts during his Monday night broadcast. After a guest joked about the intelligence of President Trump and the American people who support him -- or the rubes, as he said -- Lemon couldn't stop laughing...for over an entire minute. But without those "rubes," who make up HALF of our nation, America would cease to properly function. They'll show Don Lemon and his journalist, politician, elitist friends how much their know their way around a map when they help Trump win state after state in the electoral race next fall. ► Click HERE to subscribe to Glenn Beck bit.ly/2UVLqhL ►Click HERE to subscribe to BlazeTV: www.blazetv.com/glenn Connect with Glenn on Social Media: glennbeck glennbeck glennbeck

Discredited 18th-century economist Thomas Malthus still haunts the environmental debate. ---------------- Subscribe to our KZbin channel: kzbin.info Like us on Facebook: Reason.Magaz...

"How dare you!" Some praised Thunberg's performance as a stinging rebuke to the rich and powerful for failing to put the survival of the planet above their own needs. Others saw the exploitation of a young woman with emotional problems for propagandistic ends. There's no question that Thunberg's style of environmentalism-strident, urgent, and critical of global capitalism-has gained a strong foothold in contemporary politics. A 2019 paper from the journal Bioscience, co-signed by more than 11,000 scientists, asserted that Earth's population "must be stabilized-and, ideally, gradually reduced." And some politicians have questioned the morality of having children at all. Whether contemporary proponents of these ideas know it or not, they are all the intellectual heirs of the misguided 18th-century thinker Robert Thomas Malthus, who believed that when human population increased, famine and environmental destruction would ensue. Reason's science correspondent Ron Bailey, who is the author of the 2015 book The End of Doom: Environmental Renewal in the Twenty-first Century, says that Malthus failed to see that as human population increased, so too would livestock and crop populations with the help of ever-improving agricultural technology, which is why food availability steadily increased over the past two centuries, outpacing population growth. "Basically, the Malthusian prescription turns out to be completely wrong," says Bailey. is it really possible that the world could run out of food? While the International Food Policy Research Institute projects that farmers will have to produce 70 percent more food over the next 30 years to feed everyone on the planet, the technology already exists to accomplish that goal. Agronomist Paul Waggoner calculates that if all farmers became as efficient as today's U.S. corn growers, the world could feed 10 billion people today on half as much land. Today's Malthusians are most concerned about the disruptive effects of climate change. Citing global warming and habitat destruction, documentarian David Attenborough described humanity as a "plague upon the Earth." Meanwhile, the Bioscience paper signed by 11,000 scientists projects total societal collapse if population isn't managed properly. "I think that there's a kind of a catastrophizing, apocalyptic undercurrent," says Ted Nordhaus, founder of the Breakthrough Institute, which advocates technological solutions to environmental problems. He believes the environmental movement has long been hindered by its anti-growth paradigm. "Conventional environmental ideology posits human development and environmental protection, oppositionally, and I have exactly the opposite view," he says. Nordhaus says that the most effective way to deal with climate...
