Henry Lamb
The late Henry Lamb was the founding Executive Vice President of the Environmental Conservation Organization, founded in 1988, chairman of Sovereignty International, and publisher of eco-logic. He also serves on various boards and committees of other organizations that promote environmental stewardship, private property rights, and Constitutional values.
Very few people realize there is a massive effort to create global governance–a euphemism for world government–that would dramatically affect every man, woman and child on earth. As one of the leading experts on this issue, Henry Lamb offers a unique insight on the rise of global governance, and its potentially serious consequences to mankind. ~ Dr. Michael S. Coffman, President
Environmental Perspectives, Inc.
Without question, Henry Lamb is the foremost expert in the nation on the subject of the U.N.’s drive for global governance and its blueprint called Agenda 21. In the mid-1990s, his articles first taught me of the dangers we faced. Most of what Henry warned about then is now taking place. ~Tom DeWeese, President American Policy Center
Few people understand the mechanics and implications of global governance as intimately as Henry Lamb. He has attended dozens of United Nations meetings and studied hundreds of U.N. documents. His writings offer vital information that every American should know. ~ Phyllis Schlafly, President Eagle Forum

Mentioned by the late Mr. Lamb was Sovereignty International. Sovereignty International Incorporated (SII) is a “not-for-profit, educational 501(c)(3), non-membership organization” that promotes the belief that best government is empowered only by the consent of those who are governed. It emphasizes free and open elections of officials who are exclusively responsible for enacting public policy, and it considers this principle essential to individual freedom, inalienable private property rights, free markets, and national sovereignty.
SII’s mission includes focusing on threats to national sovereignty in public policies, international treaties and agreements, and in educational and cultural trends, according to its website. It was founded by Henry Lamb in 1996 and is known for its climate change denial stance, claiming that “the earth may be in a cooling cycle, not warming”.
The organization’s board of directors includes individuals such as Michael S. Coffman, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer; Henry Lamb, Chairman; Floy Lilley, J.D., Vice Chairman; Tom McDonnell, Director; and Bert Smith, Director. The Advisory Council consists of selected individuals and organizations with expertise in every facet of U.N. activity, including Tom DeWeese, American Policy Center; Alan Caruba, National Anxiety Center; Cliff Kincaid, American Sovereignty Action Project and America’s Survival, Inc.; David Rothbard, Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (C-FACT); and Rob Gordon, National Wilderness Institute.

Summary of the Sawgrass Rebellion by Grok:
The Sawgrass Rebellion was a grassroots movement in Florida during the early 2000s, primarily centered in Miami-Dade County, aimed at challenging federal and state land-use regulations and environmental policies that property owners and developers perceived as overly restrictive. The movement emerged in response to regulations, particularly those enforced by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency, that limited development on private lands, especially in wetland areas like the Everglades. It drew inspiration from the earlier Sagebrush Rebellion in the Western U.S., which sought greater state and local control over federal lands, but the Sawgrass Rebellion was distinct in its focus on private property rights in Florida’s unique wetland ecosystems.Key Points of the Sawgrass Rebellion:
- Origins and Context:
- The rebellion was sparked by federal environmental regulations, such as the Clean Water Act, which required permits for developing wetlands. These regulations were seen as infringing on private property rights, particularly in South Florida, where much of the land is classified as wetlands.
- In 2000, a pivotal event was the Buckeye Construction case, where the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers denied a permit for a limestone mining operation in the Lake Belt area of Miami-Dade County, citing environmental concerns. This galvanized local property owners, developers, and industries like limestone mining, which were critical to Florida’s economy.
- The movement was named after the sawgrass plant, a dominant feature of the Everglades, symbolizing the regional focus on South Florida’s environmental and land-use issues.
- Goals:
- The Sawgrass Rebellion sought to reduce federal oversight and bureaucratic restrictions on private land development, advocating for more local control and fewer environmental regulations.
- Supporters argued that federal agencies were overreaching, imposing regulations that stifled economic growth, particularly in industries like mining, agriculture, and real estate, which were vital to Miami-Dade County’s economy.
- The movement also aimed to challenge the designation of certain lands as wetlands, which restricted development, and pushed for reforms to the permitting process under the Clean Water Act.
- Key Actions and Events:
- Legislation and Advocacy: In 2001, the movement gained traction when the We The People (WTP) Congress, a property rights advocacy group, backed the Sawgrass Rebellion as part of its broader “Freedom Drive 2002” campaign. WTP organized rallies and lobbied for legislative changes to protect property rights.
- Legal Challenges: Property owners and developers filed lawsuits against federal agencies, challenging wetland designations and permit denials. Some cases reached federal courts, arguing that the Corps of Engineers’ jurisdiction over wetlands was overly broad.
- Public Campaigns: The rebellion included public demonstrations and media campaigns to highlight the economic impact of federal regulations. For example, limestone mining companies emphasized that their operations provided materials for infrastructure like roads and airports, employing thousands in South Florida.
- Legislation and Advocacy: In 2001, the movement gained traction when the We The People (WTP) Congress, a property rights advocacy group, backed the Sawgrass Rebellion as part of its broader “Freedom Drive 2002” campaign. WTP organized rallies and lobbied for legislative changes to protect property rights.
- Outcomes and Impact:
- The Sawgrass Rebellion achieved limited success in changing federal policy. While it raised awareness about property rights issues, the federal government did not significantly alter wetland regulations or the Clean Water Act’s enforcement.
- Some local concessions were made, such as adjustments to permitting processes in the Lake Belt area, allowing limited mining operations under stricter environmental oversight. However, these were seen as compromises rather than victories for the rebellion.
- The movement influenced later property rights advocacy in Florida, contributing to ongoing debates about balancing environmental conservation with economic development in the Everglades region.
- Unlike the Sagebrush Rebellion, which focused on public lands, the Sawgrass Rebellion’s emphasis on private property rights made it a unique case, though it shared a similar anti-federal sentiment.
- Legacy:
- The Sawgrass Rebellion is often cited as a precursor to later movements in Florida, such as opposition to Everglades restoration projects that impacted private lands or businesses.
- It highlighted tensions between environmental protection and economic interests, a recurring theme in Florida’s land-use politics, particularly in the context of the Everglades, a globally significant ecosystem.
- The movement waned by the mid-2000s, as legal challenges faced setbacks and public attention shifted to other issues, but it left a lasting impact on local discussions about property rights and federal overreach.
Connection to Henry Lamb:
- Henry Lamb’s Involvement: Henry Lamb, an environmental policy analyst and founder of the Environmental Conservation Organization (later renamed Sovereignty International), was a prominent figure in the Sawgrass Rebellion. Lamb was a vocal advocate for property rights and a critic of federal environmental regulations. He supported the rebellion through his writings and speeches, framing federal wetland regulations as an example of government overreach. His work with the WTP Congress helped amplify the movement’s message, connecting it to broader national efforts to limit federal authority over land use. Lamb’s involvement is noted in sources like the WTP Congress’s endorsement of the Sawgrass Rebellion.
