Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry expressed disappointment with the widespread lack of appreciation for his efforts.
"I have been tirelessly jetting all over the globe to try to impress upon people the need to reduce carbon emissions," he said. "People are polite, but not panicky. It's frustrating as Hell. Leaders everywhere are short-sightedly focused on what they call bigger problems."
"What are these 'bigger problems?" Kerry asked. "Well, in place after place they say they are more concerned about poverty and starvation. They say they need to modernize to fight these problems. Modernization requires more fossil fuels to produce more goods and to move them to areas of need. They want power plants to produce electricity to make everyone's lives easier and healthier. They don't realize how selfish they are being."
"I know it is politically important for them to focus on the well-being of their current population, but from a broader perspective, their current population is the source of the climate crisis. If the population were smaller the stress on the climate would also be smaller. If we make life healthier and easier the population is likely to grow and that would be bad for the environment."
"It may not be popular for me to say this, but letting backward countries govern themselves may not be sustainable," Kerry observed. "I think we need a centralized global leadership comprised of the best experts to save the planet. The best model we have of how to do this is provided by China where elites are free to devise and impose the absolute best policies free of interference from the less informed masses of ignorant common people. I believe that President Biden may be coming to the same conclusion and I hope he will issue the executive orders needed to make it happen."
