The connection between the United Nations and the International Baccalaureate is one that concerns me. The UN endorsed IB is the educational arm of the United Nations to indoctrinate students with globalist beliefs like radical environmentalism. This connection should concern all parents whose children are involved in IB, especially with the latest attempt by the United Nations to push a radical environmental agenda.
Bolivia will this month table a draft United Nations treaty giving "Mother Earth" the same rights as humans — having just passed a domestic law that does the same for bugs, trees and all other natural things in the South American country.
The bid aims to have the UN recognize the Earth as a living entity that humans have sought to "dominate and exploit" — to the point that the "well-being and existence of many beings" is now threatened.
The wording may yet evolve, but the general structure is meant to mirror Bolivia's Law of the Rights of Mother Earth, which Bolivian President Evo Morales enacted in January.
In other words, if the United Nations passes this agenda, even the dirtiest of disease carrying ticks will have the same rights that you and I have. This Rights of Mother Earth will no doubt infiltrate, if passed, through the UN's classrooms that participate in the IB. The IB already supports the liberal UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights and also endorsed the radical environmentalists' Earth Charter. This is why we need to keep the UN out of American schools--to protect capitalism and the free market, which these radical environmental agendas seek to attack.
