The Billionaires Behind The Gas Bans (Natural gas bans are more about class than climate change.)
Substack - Robert Bryce ^ | Jan 26 2023 | Robert Bryce

Posted on 01/29/2023 4:57:04 AM PST by Chad C. Mulligan

The Climate Imperative Foundation is the newest and richest anti-hydrocarbon, anti-natural gas group you’ve never heard of.

How rich is Climate Imperative? According to the latest report from Guidestar, the group took in $221 million in its first full year of operation. (Guidestar calls the income “gross receipts.”) That means that Climate Imperative, which is less than three years old, is already taking in more cash than the Sierra Club, which bills itself as the “nation’s largest and most influential grassroots environmental organization.” According to Guidestar, the Sierra Club collected $180 million in its latest reporting year. Climate Imperative is also taking in more money than the Rocky Mountain Institute which collected about $130 million in its latest reporting year. I use those groups for comparison because they are pushing anti-gas initiatives across the country. More on them in a moment.

The emergence of Climate Imperative -- which has received virtually no attention from legacy media outlets -- is important for several reasons.

I keep having to repeat this:

Climate Catastrophists are already doing more economic and social damage than actual climate change (if indeed there is any) can ever do in the next 500 years. But that's a feature, not a bug.

Never forget that the whole "CO2 global warming" scam was invented by the neo-Malthusian Club of Rome as a tool to force a drastic die-off of human populations. This is only the beginning. Ultimately, YOU are the carbon they want to reduce.

Meanwhile, trust the climate oligarchs to find private profit in public policy.

Europe can run on electricity because it has the grid and little natural gas. America has loads of natural gas. It’s what powers America. Anyone who wants to limit it is e either ignorant or anti American.

They want to “save the planet” in a manner that leaves their own lifestyles intact. Anyone “not needed” is marked for extinction.

Like Socialism and Communism. Climate change is just another push by the world’s elites to take control of the world and separate themselves from smelly Walmart shoppers and put them where they belong ... in their garbage cans.

Actually, Europe may have as much natural gas as the US. The governments will not allow exploration and, of course, where it is known, they will not allow fracking.

The people will never know that they could be energy independent because the gov'ts block exploration, which blocks facts.

Temperatures can be impacted by water vapor.

Deserts can get very warm in the day because the air there is very dry without enough water vapor to block solar radiation sufficiently for human comfort.

Deserts can get very cold at night because the air there is very dry without enough water vapor to block heat from escaping rapidly.

Cutting down forests and irrigation on a massive scale can impact temperatures.

You are correct. The global elite consider most of us as a plague on the earth. They of course are excepted as they are "wise and noble."

They want to be the masters of our elected masters.

These people have convinced so much of the younger generations that this stuff is true. Thus creating annuities for them and their friends in the green industry. They have duped these young minds in their attempt to transfer the wealth of the oil industry into their pockets. They are the very evil corporate greed young people rail against. This is not about clean air and clean water which EVERYONE is in favor of.

The EU recently officially stated that nuke and gas are clean energies and do not contribute to global warming. So, why is gas still hated?

Too much money involved?

If you have a gas stove you can also install gas heat and substantially avoid astronomical electricity rates.

Canadian hydroelectric is not sufficient to supply all of the Northeast US.

If one doesn’t use fossils fuels to make electricity, then the choice is nuclear or solar. Solar doesn’t work well in New York State in January. Nuclear electricity is likely to be expensive, very expensive, and you might pay dearly for it and not get any.

Green energy is a massive global money laundering scheme. Money goes from governments to “green energy” companies back to government bureaucrats in the form of paybacks.

#17 You are correct plus add in our enemies like the Russians and China and the mideast countries who have oil to sell and the democrats who want to undermine the USA.
