ENVIRONMENTAL GRANTMAKERS ASSOCIATION SECRET TAPES REVEAL STRATEGY OF WEALTHY FOUNDATIONS

NATIONAL AUDUBON SOCIETY DELETES EMBARRASSING INFORMATION ABOUT PEW CHARITABLE TRUSTS GRANTS FROM THEIR BOARD MEETING WEBSITE

SECRET WORLD WILDLIFE FUND - PACKARD FOUNDATION GRANT PROPOSAL TO GAIN UNDUE INFLUENCE OVER PRESIDENT CLINTON'S ROADLESS AREA PLAN

Unsettling Discoveries

A report once prepared by four environmental leaders, including Tom Wathen, then an environment program officer at the Pew Charitable Trusts, contains this language:

"For considerable sums of money, public opinion can be molded, constituents mobilized, issues researched, and public officials button-holed, all in a symphonic arrangement."
Mark Dowie's misattribution!

Americans are unaware of just how "symphonically" their environmental opinions have been molded by big-money foundations that tell green groups what to do and how to do it, all with the help of bureaucrats providing federal grants and insider policy manipulation.

This "iron triangle" of:

wealthy foundations,
grant-driven environmental groups,
and zealous bureaucrats

cuts off natural resource extraction from America's federal lands, ending the supply of timber, minerals, food, and fiber you use every day.

calls the gradual removal of resource workers from rural lands "transition," envisioning gentrification with upscale retirees, modem gypsies and rat-race refugees in a boutique economy.

destroys the lives and jobs of rural resource workers, whose cries of anguish and anger are called "incivility" by the rich and powerful who are destroying them.

tightens their regulatory grip on private property so you can't use what you own—and you can't get compensation for what you lose.

increases the size of big government by taking more land for "nature preserves" even though government already owns nearly half the nation.

widens the rural-urban prosperity gap. While cities enjoy a booming economy, rural communities suffer severe economic pain caused by the "iron triangle" through bans on logging, mining, ranching, farming, and all forms of natural resource extraction.

perverts the media you rely on, rearranging your mind, making sure you believe what they want you to believe and crushing all opposing views.

dismantles industrial civilization piece by piece.
