Are global warming alarmists encouraging children to commit suicide because their carbon footprints supposedly are harming the planet?
It certainly appears so in a children's game concocted by the state-funded Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Science Department, available online.
'Pigs' Should Die Young
The game is called Planet Slayer. Using it, children can calculate their carbon footprint--how much impact their carbon emissions allegedly have on global warming. The purpose for doing so, children were told in a version of the game that was online in early June, is so they can "find out what age you should die at so you don't use more than your fair share of Earth's resources." The game now asks only, "are you a carbon hog?"
After answering 11 lifestyle questions, children click on a skull and crossbones. If a child is an "average" greenhouse "pig" or worse, the cartoon pig explodes into pieces, and its blood drains from its body and pools on the floor. Average "pigs," according to the site, should die at 9.3 years old. The worst possible "pigs" should die at 1.3 years old.
"It is an insensitive game," said Ronald Bailey, science correspondent for the Reason Foundation. "It implies that it is better for the planet that children die before they can grow up to harm the environment."
