Yet, there were approximately 125,000 people who turned out for the People’s Climate March in New York City

125,000 people?

Well, according to most libtard sites it was anywhere from 300,000 to 500,000 morons...

Humm, whom to believe...?

I would guess 125,000 was being generous...

We humans have to be quite the arrogant group to believe that we have a more significant effect upon the environment that a volcanic eruption or Solar rays. And to think that the US will take the brunt of the economic downturn of saving the world as other countries use our altruistic weakness to rob us of our level of comfort and safety. Global warming is a joke and a scam. I like the name, watermelon; green on the outside and commie red on the inside.

Because by the time people reach adulthood, most have stopped believing in fairy tales.

Except Democrats

Many are adults and do not believe lies.

I’m worried about night crawlers. Silly deniers refuse to see the obvious (albeit unsubstantiated) link between night crawlers and polio.

Those bastards.

“Why Don’t More People Care About Global Warming?”

Because it isn’t? Because they are cold? Because they like civilization, prosperity and life.

I guess they expect us to be worried about the well-being of the Easter Bunny, too.

“Next, those of us old enough to remember driving through Gary, Indiana in the 1960s and early 70s know how much cleaner our air and water are today. Smaller gains in “cleanliness” come at greater and greater cost now (although the EPA, which wants everything to be infinitely clean, does not seem to care about that). “

You aren’t kidding. I knew people who lived or worked there, and the paint would come off of cars in about three years, and rust through in five. People who lived there had to paint their homes every three years or so, or else. And where I lived in suburban Chicago, the entire southeast sky was a smoky red glow at night, 365 days a year, until the mid-70’s.

It pisses me off that the left paints republicans / conservatives / capitalists as uncaring about the future; I posit that they actually think about it MORE (and that’s how they became wealthy); many conservatives have children too, and it seems to me that it’s always the fat cat capitalists who leave lasting legacies for others, going all the way back to Carnegie and Rockefeller.

We have been well PAST diminishing returns on the environment since the mid-80’s; hence, my rationale to reduce the size and scope of the EPA to mid-80’s levels.

No one is marching about unemployment and jobs because the people who aren’t working are getting paid off, and the people who are working are too broke from taxes to risk taking time off and spending the money to get to a protest.

It’s actually a brilliant system. Evil, but brilliant.

Why don’t more people worry about eternal damnation?

“Some want to live within the sound
Of church or chapel bell;
I want to run a rescue shop,
Within a yard of hell.”

sometimes framed more generally as environmental concerns

I noticed that, too. "Global Warming" didn't get the job done. "Climate Change" has performed less than stellar. Hey! Let's try "Environmental Concerns"!

More people need to wise up and realize that this is an industry, with thousands of investors, corporations, researchers, pundits, "scientists" and all manner of other people (paging Al Gore!) depending on us believing them to keep the checks rolling in.

When they say "deniers," what they really mean is "those who would deny me my next grant."

Because, most of us don’t want to be seen as stupid, unlike you synthetically erudite juveniles. ..

For the same reason, people don’t care about protecting the cockroach...it makes no sense.

Because 93 million people are looking for work and don’t have time to worry about a leftist scheme.

Robert Kennedy Jr considers deniers more than just heretics. He thinks they should be jailed as criminals against the planet because deniers are “contemptible people”.

During the People’s Climate March in NYC, he was interviewed where he denied being a hypocrite for living a lavish lifestyle of SUVs, multiple homes and private jets but would have us believe that the average Joe’s lifestyle needs to be scaled back to the 7th century AD.

He also let slip, in a increasingly agitated and heated exchanged with the reporter, even grabbing her microphone from her, that the real problem was those “evil” Koch brothers, not his lifestyle. This was the real agenda of these climate nuts coming out into the open. They don’t give a rat’s ass about the climate. This is all about overturning the capitalist system and replacing it with their ALWAYS FAILED socialist system. This is their revolution, veiled behind this environmental climate voodooism.

RFK Jr. believes so called “deniers” are heretics and he wants to hold an inquisition.
