Forgive me if I sound slightly cynical about the ‘s’ word. Problem is, I do know what it means and how it entered the language, and I’m afraid it embodies an ideological principle that is far from nice: Sustainable Development.

Yes, Sustainable Development sounds like a good thing too – but that is only because we’ve been culturally programmed to think that way. We associate it with pleasant notions like wildflower meadows left to flourish and Icelandic waters teeming with cod (unlike the poor, overfished, never-to-be-restored Grand Banks), but in fact its underlying philosophy has much more to do with taxation, regulation and control.

As the Green Agenda website puts it:

It is an all-encompassing socialist scheme to combine social welfare programs with government control of private business, socialised medicine, national zoning controls of private property and restructuring of school curriculum which serves to indoctrinate children into politically correct group think.
