You know it’s pretty desperate for these clowns when the Frenchies don’t believe them anymore.

” It must be VERY important to their future plans. “

It is the Galileo scenario.

If you are a “denier” of the “settled science” you’re social score will be reduced until you starve.

Already up and running in communist China...

“...It must be VERY important to their future plans...”

Every scam they work is, out of necessity, unprovable and designed to gain CONTROL AND POWER over the people.

Think about how every town seems to have a traffic intersection that’s needlessly dangerous.

Stupidly horrendous analogy

A dangerous intersection, no matter where it's at, eventually gets fixed.

Stupid science (global warming) should never and must never get fixed, since there is no problem to fix.

Traffic light? No problem. Stupid science? Big fictitious problem which would require wasting the people's money with no real way of measuring if the non-problem would get fixed. A traffic light fixes a problem; wasting money on a fictional problem, is horrendously wasteful and idiotic.

Immoral people are terrified of the real, natural, infrequent causes of climate change, because there’s nothing they can do about it but try to adapt. They like to follow the easier mental path of playing the blame game in hopes that someone else can be forced to save them.

People of the left are denying. They’re denying that climate change is not caused by mankind, and that they are subject to unimaginably powerful changes that are beyond human control.

"Staying at or below 1.5°C requires slashing global greenhouse gas emissions 45 percent below 2010 levels by 2030 and reaching net zero by 2050. "

Ain't happenin'

The main thing articles do is add the author to my endlessly growing list of militant morons who are not content to wallow in their own fantasy garbage, but want to inflict it others as well - people without whom the world would be a better place.

My brain uses stuff like the photos in the following thread to prevent me from taking vote-winning wealth redistribution camouflaged as politically correct global warming seriously.
It Snowed in the Arizona Desert, and the Photos Look Otherworldly

OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Nsikan Akpan is a Democrat who was sorely disappointed by the election of President Trump.

Gotta love how Twitter outs these Commies every time.

How your tiny Democrat lizard brain stops you from taking the election of President Trump seriously

Maybe that is their real concern — humans thriving and the human population growing?

Notice how the climate cultists say jack diddly squat about the biggest polluters on earth like China or India. Matter of fact 2 months ago Hillary and Lurch Kerry attended a wedding of one of Indias biggest polluters, I forget his name, but he’s a billionaire from oil and gas and he pollutes the living hell out of India but of course that’s never mentioned. All the attention goes towards the USA which has reduced greenhouse gases more than any other country on earth but apparently that’s not good enough for the cultists
