Fresno, Zimbabwe

Posted 06:43 PM ET

Environmentalism: Fresno, Calif., stands as the de facto capital of California’s mighty Central Valley, the breadbasket of America. So why is that city preoccupied with winning a $1 million prize to stave off hunger?

Local newspapers and Fresno County officials are trying to rally Facebook users to vote for Fresno in a corporate contest sponsored by Wal-Mart for $1 million in charity food donations for the hungry. Fresno, a city of 505,000, has taken the national lead because 24.1% of Fresno’s families are going hungry.

Civic spirit is good, but something big is wrong here. Fresno is the agricultural capital of America. More food per acre in more variety can be grown in the fertile Central Valley surrounding this community than on any other land in America — perhaps in the world.

Yet far from being a paradise, Fresno is starting to resemble Zimbabwe or 1930s Ukraine, a victim of a famine machine that is entirely man-made, not by red communists this time, but by greens.

State and federal officials, driven by the agenda of environmental extremists, have made it extremely difficult for the valley’s farms, introducing costly environmental regulations and cutting off critical water supplies to save the Delta smelt, a bait fish. It’s all driving the economy to collapse.

    Insane-yet we are foolishly converting food into fuel…

      Did you think before you posted? What does this have to do with converting food into fuel? People in Central Valley are growing hungary because the eco-fascists have cut off the water required to grow any crops.

    I disagree with the following line…

    not by red communists this time, but by greens.

    I think they’re one and the same.

    They’ve even put me off of my favourite desert. I used to love watermelon. Only cantaloups now.

    Dang this story has upset me.

    As much as I feel sorry for the folk of Fresno and surrounds, this story is like looking into Australias future. The hatefull Greens here have forced policymakers to cut water allocations to our farmers in our food bowl, the Murray Darling Basin.

    All the water from the current floods are gushing out to the oceans coz we didn’t build dams to capture it.
    But we did build desal plants at the cost of billions to pump the water BACK OUT OF THE OCEAN and desalinate it at huge cost. Unfriggingbelievable.

      Baa, I have a couple of questions for you.
      1. Is it true, that Australia and New Zealand have ministers for climate change, or is it a joke?
      2. Is it a titular position, or if not, what in the hell are they supposed to do 8 hours each day, 5 days a week?
      3. How did that madness start in Australia and New Zealand.

      Thank you Baa.

    BAA, If i may . 1; yes they have ministers of climate change 2; No one has figuered that out yet but the guess is taxpayer funded trips around the world to try and give away what the Aussies do not have 3; James Hansen and Al Gore started it world wide and every body saw a cash cow tit to suck on!
