FOX News host Tucker Carlson interviewed the Sierra Club’s Executive Director, Michael Brune, on Tucker Carlson Tonight, Feb 2, 2017.
Carlson, a former Sierra Club member himself, dove right into asking Brune the tough questions.
Puzzled by some of the Sierra Club’s recent position statements on such varied topics as President Trump’s border wall, the women’s march, abortion, and transgender bathrooms, Carlson asked Mr. Brune why the Sierra Club was veering away from protecting the environment to taking positions on the unrelated issues. For those who still naively believe that the Sierra Club is focused on protecting the environment, Brune’s responses are nothing short of shocking.
Carlson quoted a statement the Sierra Club issued on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade and asked Brune, “How does abortion help save the planet?”

Brune responded, “[Abortion] helps to address the number of people that we have on this planet. We feel that one of the ways in which we can get to a sustainable population is to empower women to make choices about their own families.”
Brune repeatedly mentioned that it’s “important for the Sierra Club to stand up for the rights of people.” Apparently as far as the Sierra Club is concerned however, the most innocent and defenseless among us— the unborn—don’t count as “people” and have NO “rights” at all. In their eyes, the unborn are nothing more than a burden on the environment and, as such, are disposable for the ‘greater good.’
As outraged Democrats preach “tolerance” and “Love trumps hate,” they continue to riot in cities and college campuses across America—many erroneously comparing President Trump to Hitler. Ironically, it was the evil dictator Hitler who proposed eugenics as a component of inflicting his fascist ideology on the world, just as the Sierra Club is now doing.
John Muir, the founder of the Sierra Club, frequently mentioned God in his writings. In his “A Thousand Mile Walk to the Gulf,” Muir referenced Jesus as “Our Savior.” John Muir documented the Glory of God as he witnessed it in nature, and worked to assure that others appreciated it as he did so that they would work to preserve it. Muir’s message was that “God wants humans to care for nature and not destroy the systems of life.”
For the Sierra Club to now support abortion (and every other globalist agenda there is) as a means to their political and environmental goals is as FAR removed from John Muir’s true motives as one can get! John Muir would be heartsick that what used to be the most iconic environmental organization in the nation has been hijacked by a far left eugenics movement.

Excellent article about the Sierra Club which has been totally taken over by the globalist anti-human fear mongers. These should be the best of times when dense reliable energy which is also affordable (fossil fuels) has the potential to lift all the populations of the world out of poverty and its resultant misery. Yet the evil forces of greedy grant seeking scientists, politicians, and environmental groups (many of which I used to belong to) have conspired to make carbon based energy the enemy. Carbon dioxide is plant food making plants grow. It is pumped into commercial greenhouses at 1,000 ppm (vs. our current atmospheric amount of 400 ppm) which often triples plant growth and resultant edibles for our use. Nuclear submarines and the space station have personnel under water and in outer space for many months with CO2 levels at 8,000 ppm or higher with no harm to them.
The environmental groups which fight for levels of 300 or less put plants in danger of starvation! No plants means no oxygen for animals and humans to breathe. We can feed the populations of the earth by using the technologies made possible by fossil fuels and an earth greened by higher levels of carbon dioxide. Truly there never in the history of mankind has been a more ignorant and destructive movement as the false science which promotes carbon dioxide as a pollutant and population control to “save the earth”. It sickens me!

You said it, anti-human, it’s really that bad, and aside from a item on the globalists agenda which is to make Earth a nature reserve for the wealthy, it’s also a sign of a severe group psychosis among the far left, to actually hate ones on species, to the extent that they welcome it’s eradication.
Bob McMillan says
It’s a pity that environmentalists think human life is a form of pollution. God made the world for mankind, not the other way around.

Interesting that hypocrite, Brune & his wife decided to breed and add 3 children to the human population…consumptive humans taking up wildlife habitat, using fresh water & depleting earth’s resources by their existence.
Wonder if he will arrange to take away the reproduction rights of his own offspring?

God also didn’t intend for human beings to become an infestation and occupy every last square inch of the earth …
