Does the green elite have any thoughts on these stolen childhoods?
CapX (1/28/20) blog: "Two weeks ago a Boeing 737 on final approach to Dire Dawa, Ethiopia, flew into a massive cloud of locusts swarming above the airport. The insects were sucked into the plane’s engines and splattered across the windshield, blinding the pilots to the runway ahead...The locusts that almost brought down the 737 are part of the worst infestation to hit Africa in 75 years. Swarms of locusts can blanket 460 miles at a time and consume more than 400 million pounds of vegetation a day...The UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization calls the threat 'unprecedented,' but attempts at aerial spraying have been too little, too late, largely because of FAO’s own politically-driven agenda to limit pesticides, and experts fear Africa may once again be tilting toward widespread famine. As poor farmers futilely shoo the voracious insects away with sticks, this modern plague highlights the urgent need for pesticides to protect crops and save lives. It also casts into stark relief the tragic consequences of UN, European and environmentalist campaigns to deny these life-saving chemicals to developing nations...Modern pesticides are among the most carefully tested and regulated chemicals in use and they are used increasingly in targeted precise ways to limit wider environmental impacts. Most importantly modern farming allows us to produce more food on less land."

"This move by the Trump administration marks another promise made and another promise kept. The President promised to drain the DC swamp and unwrap the red tape from around the American people. The WOTUS rule is one of the more invasive federal regulations on the books, and it is past time for it to be redefined."
