    A vapid and questionable observation.

    I think suggesting she's being exploited by the media is closer to the truth.

    It could be because war is a bigger concern for some folks now. If it goes global nuclear, about 80% of humans will die (mostly from starvation).

    Tho, same could happen if the economy collapses, which is prolly another concern, tho that one is a direct result of a globalized effort to mitigate climage change. I spose its worth noting that killing off most of the humans will not only 'fix' climate change, but is prolly the real strategy anyway.

    "In earlier times, it was easier to control a million people, literally, than physically to kill a million people. Today it is infinitely easier to kill a million people than to control a million people.”

    I didn't promote BS. I merely posted the truth. After all Greta and the left do to raise awareness for climate change, less people now care about it than before they were making us all aware. Do you have something against the truth, or are you a truth denier?

    You call everything that isn't extreme left nonsense, extreme right nonsense.

    That would be further from the truth. Politicians with dollar signs in their eyes exploit the media and those gullible enough to consume their media product.

    The difference, is that Harris supports the alleged 'Climate Change'*, as Trump did not.

    Where in the hell have you been the last 2 1/2 years? Do you think some people worried about keeping a roof over their head, food on the table or their family healthy might have altered their focus?

    You give every indication you're a conclusion seeking premises.

    If Greta looked like a typical teenage girl...

    They continued doing something—not very much and not enough—after the Orange Jackass...

    So what difference does that make. Do you think acting like a jackass give you the right to be one?

    Do you suppose that while mr Di Caprio is sailing the oceans blue on his very large boat that it occurs to him that his output is equivalent to a years worth of output from a person's private car that takes that car a year to produce, every 7 miles he sails? I doubt it. Just like mr Kerry believes that his "purpose" allows him to use his private aviation fleet to accomplish his "mission".... or that mr Gore's swimming pool takes the same amount of energy as a small town to run in Nashville.... Show me a democrat or a purveyor of AGW litany that actually follows the recommendations. Democrats, in general, NEVER assume the law applies to them. Need proof? Why did Nancy get the blowout when all the rest of the businesses in SF were closed due to COVID again? The law didn't apply to her, she wasn't even apologetic about it. She thought she'd been set up. It's laughable.

    Hypocrisy? It screams loud and clear. Until they walk the walk, it's just static.

    Ah, now I understand. You're saying that Biden's complete disaster of a presidency has led people to think less about the climate and more about the wrong direction the country is headed.

    I applaud him for pulling out of the Paris agreement. Hell, even those on the left said the Paris agreement didn't go far enough. We don't need to be the world's piggy bank, especially since we already owe over 30 trillion dollars. Trump didn't pull us out of the agreement because he was against fighting climate change. He pulled us out because we were supposed to pay for most of it.

    No, the earth warming is not "just like it has several times over the last 5 billion years..." That's nonsense.

    The Orange Oaf could have pushed for changes inside the Agreement.

    As far as the climate goes: Absolutely nothing. But then again, trillions of dollars pocketed by climate charlatans haven’t either, so there is that…

    No, like a neutered dog, you don't get it.

    The country has been headed in the wrong direction for more than four decades.

    The agreement needed to be scrapped and the lefties would not have taken part in re-writing it. We don't want to put our own people out of jobs, we don't want to destroy our own businesses, we don't want to increase inflation, we don't want to rely on others for our energy, and we don't want to be the world's piggy bank.
