WASHINGTON, April 22, 2012 – Another “Earth Day” has nearly passed, along with its sanctimonious urgings that we abandon our evil, energy- and chemical-consuming lives in order to “save the planet.” It’s become a key part of today’s secular, socialist faux religion. And in an era of economic deprivation, this nonsense and false piety is becoming increasingly repugnant. 

There’s another, more bracing point of view that tracks much better with the American spirit, and we think it’s best expressed in the following video (with a hat tip to PJ Media). 

Enjoy.
