Jerry Brown: 3 Billion Will Die from Global Warming

(CNSNews.com) - California Gov. Jerry Brown predicted that if carbon emissions aren’t reduced, billions of people will die from “heat events,” and one billion will be subjected to vector diseases.

“When you pick up the paper or turn on cable news, you’d think it’s another planet. It’s all about the nonsense of Washington, and carbon emissions are growing, and we’ve got to radically turn that around, or the migrations you’re seeing now are going to be child’s play,” Brown told reporters Tuesday at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.

“We’re going to have widespread disruption, more conflicts, more terrorism, more insecurity because of climate disruption. The prospect is 3 billion people on this planet will be subject to fatal lethal heat events – 3 billion – and 1 billion will be subjected to vector diseases that they’re not now subject to now,” he said. “This is a horror.”

Brown was among a number of governors who established an alliance to reduce climate change in response to President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord.

When asked what states can reasonably do about climate change, Brown said, “California has adopted an extension of this cap and trade program, which will give us 20 percent of our greenhouse gas reduction. That’s a very important measure that would have gone out of existence in 2020, and that measure was voted by Republicans. It wouldn’t have passed without Republican support.”

Isn’t this their goal using other strategies, anyway?

Such as one of their major rationales to support abortion?

I don’t see a problem....do you?

No they won’t. They already died from nuclear war, nuclear winter, the end of oil, the coming ice Age, the end of birds, , Africanized Honeybees, the end of bees, no food, GMO food, AIDS, Swine Flu, Bird Flu, asteroids, Yellowstone, holes in the ozone, AR-15s, and the zombie-frickin-apocalypse.

A 3 degree temperature rise isn’t even worth being on that list!

“We’re going to have widespread disruption, more conflicts, more terrorism, more insecurity because of climate disruption."

Isn't that 'talking down' the planet?

Over the years I’ve thought Moonbeam couldn’t get any more deranged many times, I’ve been wrong every time up to now.

Get ten bucks from each of them and Jerry might finish his commuter rail.

If those 3 billion includes every resident of China then harmful gaseous emissions will drop by 80% worldwide.

Problem solved.

OTOH Governor Moonbeam will have his A/C at a steady 72 degrees so *he* needn't worry about "warming".
