"Citing conspiracy theories about “a one-world order,” the Arizona Tea Party is attempting to slip a bill through the legislature that could strip programs
designed to help residents in the state become more energy efficient.
The bill’s sponsor, Arizona State Senator Judy Burges, ® says her goal
is to wipe out any environmental program administered or funded by the government to prevent “social engineering …
including where we live, what we eat.”
Burges’ bill, Senate Bill 1507, is based upon an unfounded conspiracy theory
about “Agenda 21,” a non-binding international plan for environmentally-sustainable development crafted by the United Nations.
The plan was adopted in 1992 by 178 countries, including the United States under the George H.W. Bush administration.
Burges and other members of the Tea Party
believe that clean energy programs in Arizona are a plot by the United Nations to create a single world government in order to control people’s lives.
The Arizona conspiracy bill has already moved through the Senate, through a House committee, and is now set for discussion on the House floor.
If passed by the House, the bill could block state and municipal programs
that help home and business owners invest in energy efficiency improvements."

Don't they want their children to have clean air/water as a result of using
less coal, and saving money to boot?
