			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A <a href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5hs_KRyna6tzgZtc7OrWH_yRiW7bQD9ANBN883">report from the U.S. Geological Survey</a> is giving birth to concerns about the decline in the fish population because of the feminizing of fish.  No, I am not talking about cross-dressing fish, but referencing what experts say is a widespread problem in which certain species of male fish are growing egg cells.</p>
<p>What’s behind this feminization of male fish?  Birth control pills.  Women’s birth control pills and other hormone treatments have made their way into the nation’s rivers through the sewer systems.  Birth control pills are not only the leading form of pregnancy prevention here in the U.S., but are often the tool of choice for the population control forces in third world countries.</p>
<p>The tragedy is that the population control message is most often promoted by the global warming crowd and others who view <em>people</em> as negatively impacting the environment and consuming limited resources.  In reality, it’s their efforts to reduce the population (people) that are actually destroying the environment (fish).</p>
