The Dismal Ecology Of Immigration
Written by Reed Perry Posted in Uncategorized
The USA contains the third largest national population behind India and China. In 35 years, the population of the States is expected to reach 400 million. This is primarily driven by the influx of mestizo immigrants who bring their prodigious breeding habits and a fantasy of American consumer excess. It’s not an ecologically friendly combination.
Many of our future resource deficiencies and unnatural calamities will be the direct consequence of overpopulation brought about by the proliferating mestizo demographic. The calculus of this disproportionate expansion shouldn’t be limited to an assessment of lost welfare monies, potential crimes, or regional displacement. A great collective burden will likely rise from the strain on natural resources. These transplanted millions will require water, food, electricity, transport, material possessions. These goods have to be harvested from the environment, the resulting waste disposed of.
Quelling overpopulation was once a major priority in environmental circles. Even radical ecologists such as Edward Abbey (author of The Monkey Wrench Gang) once demanded a strict no-immigration policy to protect our open spaces and more carefully manage our assets for posterity. Sadly, this prime concern was abandoned by the advancing “New Left” at great expense to environmental integrity.
Water Depletion
California is currently facing a direct threat to its economic viability due to the reckless mismanagement of its watersheds. What is often blamed on drought is simply a water supply languishing from relentless population stress. This issue is creeping on all the Western states.
Even land developers in Phoenix once openly discussed the fact that the “Valley of the Sun” ought to have a cap on growth to prevent the dehydration of its insubstantial reservoirs. These men had witnessed the construction of colossal infrastructure projects in America’s wastelands like the Central Arizona Project, a 300-mile-long super-canal that took over 20 years and billions of dollars to achieve. The project, along with dozens of other diversions and dams, empties the Colorado River before it reaches Mexico.
It is unrealistic, even delusional, to expect regional growth to continue without dire costs. Present populations in this arid southern zone are only viable with its dozens of immense dams, waterworks, underground and mountainside pipelines, drained lakes, and copious wells bored hundreds of feet deep. The industry of water extraction is the basis of all human activity in the dry west.
In his book Cadillac Desert, Marc Reisner details prospective super-projects capable of slaking the Southwest’s unending thirst. These include building nuclear reactors in the Midwest to pump water over thousands of miles from the Great Lakes, or building dozens of cascading pools and canals to draw from the Canadian Rockies. This is how unsustainably tremendous current needs are. As California demonstrates, the demand exists now–not years from now. Cities across California (such as bankrupt Fresno) are already imposing water rations along with sky-high municipal tolls.
Many ecologists blame this on “climate change,” and the climate does always change, but the American southwest is naturally as crackling dry as it is searing hot. The ancient Anasazi Pueblo cultures of Arizona/New Mexico are believed to have been annihilated by an extended drought that occurred about 700 years ago. The modern multitudes in western lands are maintained by manipulating the environment in astounding ways. But today, there are no more rivers to dam. Irreplaceable aquifers that could have endured for hundreds of years were sucked dry by cotton-fields, barrios, and gated suburbs. Today, gasoline is cheaper than bottled water.
Tucson, Phoenix, and Las Vegas are unlikely to exist in their current sprawling conditions through the demographic upheaval of the next 35 years. With mushrooming mestizo reproduction, these metropolises will likely implode with decreasing fluids and accelerating demand. Historically low water levels in Lake Mead have triggered a decrease in planned water deliveries to both Nevada and Arizona for 2016. Like California, they too will face a day of reckoning, as near-sighted politicians will no longer be capable of pawning the problem off for another term, and another term.
A third of the people in California were not born in the country. Without the population spike seen in these desert cities, they may have remained viable. Its possible that as the countryside is further desiccated, the fields abandoned due to salinity, and water rationing imposed, many of these Hispanic colonists will be pushed into other parts of the US, bringing their prodigious breeding habits and population stresses with them.
Sanitation
It’s absurd to assume that third-world Central Americans will magically transform into conscientious first-world conservationists the moment they cross the border. On the other hand, it’s realistic to believe they’ll remain the same as they were in their home countries, bringing their third-world habits with them. As one can observe first-hand in immigrant-dominated areas like South LA, the mestizo arrivals have little interest in basic sanitation practices.
The Los Angeles Police have been forced to assemble a special task force to target illegal dumping as the chronic problem has reached catastrophic proportions. In 2013-2014 the LA Bureau of Sanitation received over 600,000 service requests related to trash dumping and human waste. It’s such a hazard that the city attorney’s office has increased penalties for the crime, while cops deploy undercover surveillance units to hunt down the worst offenders.
These are simply third-world standards taking hold in the US due to population replacement. Barrios and entire cities with large mestizo populations have increasingly come to resemble the trash-filled shantytowns where their inhabitants originated.
Additional waste management issues in major American cities are likely to reach proportions undreamed of. As millions of new residents are added to each metropolis, many multi-billion dollar projects will have to be financed in order to treat the deluge of sewage emitted by urban centers. New landfills will be excavated.
At least 27 billion gallons of untreated sewage is spilled into New York Harbor every year. Monstrous barges must be filled with garbage for burial in neighboring states. Some of these ships have traveled as far as the Caribbean in the quest to unload heaps of trash. Immense sanitation issues such as these lay in store for us all as distended urban populations continue to bloat with immigrants and their many children.
Electricity and Transport
Anticipating the addition of several million third-world inhabitants to every metropolitan area over the next 35 years leaves us with a dismal expectation of street traffic, air pollution, and electrical supply. These issues are so expansively complex that it’s virtually impossible to begin assessing the towering challenge it poses for national infrastructure.
A third of all highway accidents are attributed to substandard roads. According to Pew Research, one out of every four bridges in the US already carries more traffic than originally intended. Scores of freeway overpasses need replacement. Even broaching the subject of our overburdened transportation system results in a laundry list of unfunded needs taxpayers are less than willing to pay.
Governed by notoriously corrupt regional monopolies (like Enron), our electrical power network is fraught with unstable prices and its own ecological hazards. Coal continues to be the largest source of national electric power. The mining and transport of this fuel is an ugly process that has led to travesties such as mountaintop removal, a kind of biome-obliterating strip-mining.
Leftist ecologists point out how much more air pollution Americans produce per capita compared to undeveloped countries. Yet by adopting millions of multiplying third-world peoples, we are obviously exacerbating America’s suffocating urban air issues, awhile precipitating extractive industries that have proven to be the most punishing for nature. It is also punishing to the pocketbook.
What will energy prices look like with another 80 million consumers? Before you make any price estimates of your own, remember that nuclear power is federally subsidized, coal premiums are at the mercy of global markets, and fracking oil has proven to not only result in very short-term gains, but result in long-term aquifer destruction, which carries its own “indirect” costs.
Brazilification
Commentators have used the term “Brazilification” to describe the future white-minority America. The term is accurate when it relates to the chaos of the fractured and blended ethnicities that will be struggling for their identity in the decades to come. It reflects many concerns about the dissipation of our national personality. But perhaps “Brazilification” is most pertinent when considering the condition of basic services, natural resources, and environmental stability under the load of gross overpopulation brought about by nonwhite colonization.
Americans are unaccustomed to the third-world shocks accompanying this demographic bubble. We can expect an America of 400 million, but 400-million with rolling power blackouts, clean water shortages, worsening sanitation, and crumbling infrastructure–all hallmarks of the very countries these colonists fled from. Like air, you only notice how important security is when it’s gone.
For a New Environmentalism
This is only a superficial scan of what amounts to an impending environmental civil war. Conflicts are usually based on access to resources, precipitated along ethnic or regional lines. Our continent is not immune to friction along these unstable human boundaries.
Wresting the environmental discussion from the progressive media means redefining the idea of conservation. Without a vision for our posterity, what good is maintaining any civilization at all? The proximity of environmentalism to the radical left should be ignored. They have orphaned the issue. Like many similar intellectual challenges, they’ve proven incapable of facing the difficult resolutions that must be made.
China had to implement strict birth measures to manage growth, which prevented social upheaval. Past societies, such as the Norse, have controlled population through selective reproduction. In 1900s America, widespread eugenic programs were in place. Yet in a period of 30 years, we have allowed 40 million immigrants, illegal and legal, to enter the country unabated. By allowing these incomers without any vetting, we’ve violated our own common sense awhile short-selling our future.
Liberal democracy has given us the double burden of a confused public and temporary political decision-making. A long-term plan for American resource management will never come from the shattered demotist establishment. For this reason, the new movement emerging from the right must take on the most monumental issues others refuse to approach. That includes guarding our environmental resources.
America is becoming a scarce land.
“This is primarily driven by the influx of mestizo immigrants who bring their prodigious breeding habits…”
“A great collective burden will likely rise from the strain on natural resources.”
Was there not a post that emphasized the advantages of having big families? It would appear, when looking at things from a long-term time preference, that more children is undesirable.
“Past societies, such as the Norse, have controlled population through selective reproduction.”
Limiting any human being to any other measure than their own desires and capabilities–within the prescribed norms of society, of course–is absolute nonsense. It is well within the liberty of a person to decide whether or not to have one, two, or ten children, NOT an absolute monarchy, communist state, or representative democracy.
“It’s absurd to assume that third-world Central Americans will magically transform into conscientious first-world conservationists the moment they cross the border.”
Of course it is absurd. Their governments are notoriously corrupt and inefficient. Besides, you think living in squalor is a “Central American thang”? One has to model the proper behavior. In 1657, New Amsterdam (now Manhattan) finally enacted legislation that prohibited their citizens from throwing trash and waste into the city streets. In 1866, New York City’s Metropolitan Board of Health declared a “war on garbage”, forbidding the “throwing of dead animals, garbage or ashes into the streets”. This board attributed the behavior to BOTH established citizen and newly arrived immigrant. From the Boston Sanitary Committee (1893)–“The means resorted to by a large number of citizens to get rid of their garbage and avoid paying for its collection would be very amusing were it not such a menace to public health. Some burn it, while others wrap it up in paper and carry it on their way to work and drop it when unobserved, or throw it into vacant lots or into the river.” In 1896, Chicago’s City Council recorded how the 19th Ward was “polluted to the last degree with trampled garbage, excreta, and other vegetable and animal refuse of the vilest description”. Those to blame? Second and third generation Irish. Last time I checked, the Irish were white and European.
“In 1900s America, widespread eugenic programs were in place.”
Are you implying this moral abomination be once again implemented?
“China had to implement strict birth measures to manage growth, which prevented social upheaval.”
A Marxist endeavor that has promoted sex-selected abortion, child abandonment, and infanticide.
I’m not stating a preference for or against large families. I’m simply stating the fact that large mestizo families are driving this population growth. Some people claim a shrinking population can be good, especially with automation, however, a declining populace seems to always be coupled with a moral and cultural dissipation.
Same with the eugenics reference. I’m not necessarily for or against it, but when public policy is actively dysgenic its worth pointing out when public policy was pushing the opposite way. I believe many of the Central Americans currently flooding in are the criminal/social underclass of their cities and the governments are actually encouraging them to come here, ala Mariel Boat Lift.
This article could have been significantly longer in order to be more specific but I didn’t want to get boring with paragraph after paragraph elaborating on this.
I think this is the one argument that those on the right don’t emphasize enough. If environmentalists start to slither out from under the “Diversity” cult, it will likely be because of this I think. I doesn’t do any good to try to save the environment, if you are importing a million people every few years into the country. as Yosemite becomes a neighborhood park, water resources run out, etc. Its spitting into the ocean. It is going to become a choice between “Cultural Enrichment” or salmon, and steelhead in the rivers, bears and mountain lions in the mountains. Places like Gettysburg for instance. You think Hispanics, and blacks{who already dont care much about such places} are going to care to fund and preserve such places? It means nothing to them. I lost my respect for the environmental movement over this more than anything else. Vast resources, and a great deal of public good will have been wasted on silly pursuits of things like Global Warming, when dealing with replacement level immigration would be much more effective. Water is just one of the problems. How are we going to supply the amount of wood, and other minerals, which exist in limited amounts. Like the article said,there are no more rivers to dam, we cant just strip mine th earth for fossil fuels. I grew up near Tombstone Arizona. A beautiful region, but not capable of supporting huge numbers of people, and all the other living things that need space too. Many environmentalists certainly know this, but they have sold their soul so deep into the Lefts many insanities, theirs no courage to confront them about this. We are going to be India one day, where zoos are the only real wildlife people see. While folks struggle to get by, and big wild things slowly go away. Hopefully somebody in the enviromental movement will finally get a clue.
I’ve noticed this also, in fact I’ve met old greenies with the most racist attitudes I’ve ever heard. They’re like White Nationalists who’ve infiltrated the environmental movement.
Really pleased to see Social Matter interacting with Cadillac Desert. The social and political implications of the geography of the American West are widely ignored and will brutally reassert themselves unless current trends (of many kinds) change.
I’m afraid “Brazilification” is optimisitic. “Mexification” is more accurate, and worse. My theory is Mexico is the worst place in Latin America, because it combines the worst aspects of Latin American and North American culture. Latin America proper has a lot of problems, primarily violent social conflict, but it has its good points and works in its own way. Mexico and Central America, the source of most of our current immigrants, is violent, corrupt and dysfunctional as only Venezuela is on the South American continent.
The Latin American racial ideology is the “La Raza Cosmica”, that all the races are mixed into one race, which helps brush aside racial grievances. I don’t think they have any affirmative action, for example. The North American racial ideology combined with a huge non-white population is a recipe for disaster.
Latin American countries also seem particularly unable to handle economic inequality. Any level of substantial growth is usually accompanied by setbacks via loss of regime legitimacy. Even in Chile, the country is having a hard time repelling student movement protests. The Chilean “Che Guevara” Camila Vallejo, who represents the Communist Party, won a seat in Parliament after receiving 44 percent of the vote in the Santiago district of La Florida. The fact that Chile is doing incredibly well economically doesn’t seem to hit home.
So, what’s the consequence for North America? I think we’re likely to see Occupy-style movements bolstered by any SWPL-esque kids of Latin American immigrants. This point needs to be explored further.
Prepare for rioting, chaos and communism. Terrifying.
Catastrophe in AZ’s Valley of the Sun grows nearer every day. Residential development continues at a brisk pace despite the seemingly inevitable collapse of the water supply. I think about the vast retirement communities filled with hundreds of thousands of clueless senior citizens–most of whom have never known a moment of deprivation in their lives. What happens when their taps run dry?
In some ways, I am happy to see neoreaction engaging environmentalism, but I hope we can go above and beyond the “grim green” literature of the American West. Reisner’s book accurately portrays the scarcity of water, but fails to take seriously the potential for reform, especially market-based reform. Since the book was published, trade in water rights has continued to allocate water more efficiently, and to higher-value enterprises. Vast tracts of agricultural land have been replaced with housing. New residential neighborhoods, once irrigated to jungle-density, are now typically xeriscaped. Some of this voluntary or regulatory, but the trend should be attributed primarily to the price mechanism. The Greens approached water as moral, and quasi-religious, issue. Gnon brushed these moralisms aside. Neoreaction should not make the same mistake. Water scarcity poses a hard upper limit on the population of the West, but very little risk of catastrophic collapse. The West’s population increase has been a function of cost of living. When the water is fully-subscribed, it will simply become a most-costly and less-attractive destination. Neoreaction should approach environmental issues without adopting the treehuggers’ romantic/apocalyptic (and not coincidentally false) narrative.
I disagree, conserving nature using emotionally driven green ideology has in the last 40 years been the only breaks on building more dams and water pipe lines. This then has an alternate effect on the price mechanism, making water expensive, forcing restrictive laws for water use and an effective brake on mass population explosions of barrio’s or shantie towns. Notice the more Liberal green progressive states/countries have these environmental and water allocation laws, which effectively uses the price mechanism to increase the price of housing and food. Water laws are only one of the many that progressive policies use to create the postcode whitopias.
The conservative flip of the coin is the economic liberal man, who leads our current racial color blind dismemberment, charging right into the abyss with out a second thought. Economic liberal man or even classical liberal man pending on beliefs, should not be apart of neoreaction.
Both sides of politics should be pushed to neo reaction simultaneously, different tactics should be used to coerce both sides. The liberal green progressives should be pushed towards population realism, carrying capacity, and even racial realism using the most acceptable examples, one being the Tibetans and Chinese…
White Nationalism should be used to push the tea party and conservative side of politics to the same conclusions, rather then using the emotionally green driven politics of climate change, it being just another out growth of the typically ethnomasochist progressive. Using the underground “Climate Skeptics” and upholding the science that the “Climate Alarmists” deny even exists. That’s right the Ice age thesis still holds far greater weight, other wise “Climate Skeptics” wouldn’t have such an easy time debunking “Climate Change” mysticism… Of course weaving crusty conservative environmentalism of carrying capacity, population realism, and race realism just comes naturally to WN.
To form a third way, an alternative political force, which will forge a new political party, neoreaction should look to both sides of politics for potential votes and comrades.
The water shortage in the west is real and growing. If trends continue for a few more years, its likely that major cities will be hit with water rationing. I’m not arguing this from the “anthropogenic climate change” position. Natural long-term cycles are at play and the climate is always changing. If there is a catastrophic human influence in this I have yet to witness it beyond the minor local influences you may see in a megalopolis like LA/Shanghai/etc with the micro-climates they develop.
Environmentalism has been a failure for the left. I don’t see environmentalism in the future as being a liberal issue. Most people with a stake in natural abundance live in rural areas and their values are at odds with the metro-intelligentsia.
I agree. I was talking mass politics and unfortunately the left took up “Climate Change” or previously known before the propaganda rebrush “Global Warming”.
In 1100 AD it’s been reveiled the entire Eastern coast of Australia suffered a 37 year drought, the longest now on record, from Ice core data. That’s a record full stop, farmers have heard of 5 or 10 year droughts in the outback, the coast of Green Eastern Australia is unheard of, which makes it more unfathomable in the masses imagination.
Mother nature always has surprises for us that we can’t plan for.
