Ted Turner: Global warming could lead to cannibalism
Billionaire environmentalist says world has too many people

Failure to address global warming will have us all dead or eating each 
other by mid-century.
So says Ted Turner, the restaurateur, environmentalist and former media 
mogul whose controversial comments have earned him the nickname "Mouth 
of the South."

If steps aren't taken to stem global warming, "We'll be eight degrees 
hotter in 30 or 40 years and basically none of the crops will grow," 
Turner said during a wide-ranging, hour-long interview with PBS's 
Charlie Rose that aired Tuesday.

"Most of the people will have died and the rest of us will be 
cannibals," said Turner, 69. "Civilization will have broken down. The 
few people left will be living in a failed state --- like Somalia or 
Sudan --- and living conditions will be intolerable."

One way to combat global warming, Turner said, is to stabilize the 
population.
"We're too many people; that's why we have global warming," he said. 
"Too many people are using too much stuff."
Turner suggested that "on a voluntary basis, everybody in the world's 
got to pledge to themselves that one or two children is it."

Admitting that he's "always suffered from foot-in-the-mouth disease," 
Turner added, "I've gotten a lot better, though. It's been a long time 
since anybody caught me saying something stupid."

Turner went on to say that military budgets need to be cut "way back."
"Right now, the U.S. is spending $500 billion a year on the military, 
which is more than all 190 countries in the world put together," he said.

"The two countries that the military industrial complex and some of our 
politicians would like to demonize and make enemies are Russia and 
China," Turner said. "China just wants to sell us shoes. They're not 
building landing craft to attack the United States, and Russia wants to 
be our friends, too."

He said that despite the United States' huge military budget, "we can't 
win in Iraq."
"We're being beaten by insurgents who don't even have any tanks, they 
don't have a headquarters, they don't have a Pentagon, we don't even 
know if they have any generals," Turner told Rose.

Turner called the Iraqi insurgents "patriots" who "don't like us because 
we invaded their country and occupied it. Nobody likes to be invaded."

The _CNN_

founder also said he thinks his old network has veered too far away from 
serious news, instead favoring lighter stories delivered by attractive 
female "chickies" and opinion-based news such as Lou Dobbs' show.
