Agenda 21 in Georgia Update

Resolution targets U.N. sustainability plan  by Kristina Torres 

Decrying "the destructive and insidious nature of the United Nations Agenda 21," a top Republican lawmaker asked his colleagues Thursday to publicly disavow it.

Agenda 21 is a U.N. plan envisioned two decades ago to promote sustainable development. Among its targets is climate change and poverty. It includes a call to action on such things as smart growth, transportation planning and environmentally friendly practices.

The plan, however, has come under attack from some tea party groups and conservative activists.

Senate Resolution 730, sponsored by Senate Majority Leader Chip Rogers, R-Woodstock, compares the plan to socialism and communism, saying its "extreme environmentalism, social engineering and global political control" is a threat to the American way of life. SR 730 was referred to committee.

Comments:

SR 730 didn’t make it out of committee, but like so many other resolutions and bills, may be brought up again in future legislative sessions.  In 2012 The Georgia GOP published their resolution condemning Agenda 21.  Also in 2012, Alabama passed a law banning Agenda 21 and making it illegal in Alabama.

Google Agenda 21 and watch videos by Glenn Beck and many others.  Google the U.N. website and look at a copy of Agenda 21, published in 1992 at the U.N. Rio Earth Summit.  The U.N. plan to extort billions from the U.S. using global warming junk science as its excuse. Obama has been implementing Agenda 21 across the U.S. since 2009
