Not everyone's buying Gingrich’s anti-Agenda 21 cred
Not everyone's buying Gingrich’s anti-Agenda 21 cred

One of the ways presidential candidate Newt Gingrich has been trying to gin up support in tea party and far-right conservative circles is by talking about Agenda 21 — a lot. But Gingrich is having trouble convincing some far-right voters of his antipathy toward the United Nations sustainable growth initiative because of his past environmental policy positions.
...
“I would explicitly repudiate what Obama has done on Agenda 21 as the kind of interference from the United Nations,” Gingrich added.
But some far-right groups have long criticized Gingrich for his lack of conservative credentials — particularly when it comes to sustainable growth, climate change and international organizations, making Gingrich’s anti-Agenda 21 credibility a tough sell.
The John Birch Society, a historically infamous anti-communist group, recently re-released a 1996 video exposé of Gingrich created by the group’s president, John McManus. The video was updated to include some recent commentary from McManus.

In the video, McManus refers to Gingrich as an “internationalist” who has no problems with globalist institutions such as the U.N. and the Council on Foreign Relations. He says in the video that Gingrich voted to designate 68 million acres of land in Alaska as a “federally protected wilderness.” He also says that Gingrich transfered 2.2 million acres in Idaho to “federal wilderness land control” — information that was echoed by right-wing writer Janet Levy, and other bloggers. The John Birch Society believes that federal “land grabs” are communist.
As Mother Jones noted, Gingrich might not be so believable in his quest to undermine efforts to combat climate change, because he has a mixed history on the issue.
Between his departure from the House and his presidential campaign, Gingrich filmed a now-famous ad with former Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in which the two of them called upon U.S. policy-makers to write legislation to fight climate change. Gingrich has since said his involvement with the ad campaign was a mistake.

Your Hometown & the United Nations' Agenda 21
In March 2010, Nor-Cal Produce, a family-owned produce business in West Sacramento, was fined $32,500 by the California Air Resources Board (ARB, or CARB), but was not charged with, or even accused of, illegal emissions, but merely for having failed to notice a new regulation posted by CARB requiring all semi-trailers, shipping containers, vans, and rail cars with diesel-powered refrigerators to file a report with the agency. by William F.
