The eco-Socialists at Treehugger are really at it again. And when you think it can’t get any more bizarre with the “equity” schtick (e.g, the Socialist norm of “equality of outcome” instead of the American norm of “equality of opportunity”), here comes this from Lloyd.

Food Solutions New England (FSNE), through the UNH Sustainability Group, appear to be pinging Farmers and folks in the Food Chain. They want them to participate in a 21-Day Racial Equity Habit-Building Challenge.
Gift Giving Bad for the Planet. Skip the Greeting Cards, and Don’t Wrap Presents
With Christmas just a few days away, we have some holiday giving guidance from the Sustainability Director at a top ten ranked University. Because that’s who’d you ask, right? No? Well, at least we now know why.
NH Budget Plan
You can’t have too much taxation In the first 10 weeks of the 2019 legislative session, the New Hampshire House of Representatives passed nearly $310 million in annual tax and fee increases. That is exclusive of the changes in subsidy levels for green energy which will significantly impact your electric bill. So how much of … Read more

Creeping Enviro-Tyranny…this time in Utah
If you read part-1 of “Following the Trail from Sustainability to Tyranny“, you would have seen a list of “What If?” questions. The third question reads: “What If you could not grow a vegetable garden without a permit?“. Some people might say these are pie-in-the-sky questions, or conspiracy notions, simply because they are not necessarily happening today. Well, you’ve been warned!
Following the Trail from Sustainability…to Tyranny (Part 2)
This is part-2 of a series that breaks down the “sustainability” movement, and explains how some in NH are working to constrain individual liberties with it. Read part-1 here.
The consummate community organizer, President Obama, knows the value of urban voters. He knows that urban living, with its clustered, infrastructure-heavy, and herd-like nature, depends on government more than suburban life, and far more than self-sufficient, independent rural living. He knows that more urban (or urban-like) voters mean utter dominance of the Progressive political class, at all levels.
He also knows that people have flocked away from cities, especially since the 1970’s, forming concentric suburban rings, referred to as “sprawl” (a word you will hear used quite a bit), which provide resistance to his urban, democratic-socialist ideals.
“The suburbs will define the outcome of the 2012 Presidential election”
Continuing to use the environmental movement as cover, and using the Presidency for credibility and funding, Barack Obama and his fellow community organizers are advancing the simmering ideology of “sustainability” by attacking the suburbs.

Fellow citizen, please ask yourself these questions.
What if…..
- The state began taxing your private well-water usage, declaring ownership of it?
- You could no longer collect rain water on your property?
- The state taxed you on septic design and annual usage?
- You could not grow a vegetable garden without a permit?
- You were taxed on the number of miles driven yearly in your car?
- The state decided to build multi-story housing complexes in your town, for the purpose of housing low-income people from the nearest city?
- You were taxed based on the amount of CO2 your house produced?
- You could not choose the color of your house?
- Single-family houses were banned, and your town was forced to build 20 housing units per acre?
- Towns were required to keep 25% of their lands undeveloped?
- Your town was sued by a private group, for not complying with diversity and equity standards…which your town legally agreed to?
What if the federal government could not make this happen directly, but found a back door?
Enviro-Tyranny…coming soon to New Hampshire
Maybe you’ve heard about Gary Harrington, of Eagle Point, Oregon, and his battle with local officials over his rural collection of rainwater? (yes, that kind of water…from the sky)
I’m sorry! Not his battle – I meant his arrest, 9-count misdemeanor conviction, sentencing of 30 days in jail, and $1500 fine.
Think it can’t happen here?
