STOP BREATHING, ASTHMATICS: CNN Rails Against ‘Climate Pollution from Inhalers’
NewsBusters ^ | 10/7/2025 | Joseph Vazquez

Tough noogies, asthmatics! CNN has officially pinned your breathing tool as the latest climate change threat to the environment.

Jen Christensen of the CNN Health & Climate Unit railed against respiratory-challenged individuals’s survival tool in an October 6 story headlined: “Climate pollution from inhalers has the impact of half a million cars per year, study finds.”

Apparently being full of hot air is no longer just an idiom for the lefty media. Christensen’s story was utterly ridiculous from the start: “The people who are most vulnerable to the hard-to-breathe air that comes with climate change may inadvertently be adding to the problem, new research finds.” Darn those respiratory-challenged people trying to stay alive, eh Jen?

I bet Jen at CNN wouldn't have said that if she knew that asthma problems trend higher blacks and indigenous Americans. LOL

“They want us dead.”

Yep, this is rooted in their insane obsession with population control.

Problem solved.

With a metering device attached to the mask, they could tax the air we breathe. Useless eaters and useless breathers can summon MAID if their lives become unbearable.

I’ve had an albuterol inhailer in my pocket for the last 53 years.

Keeping the planet warm all by my self.

I am going to keep repeating it because some people can’t see it. These busybodies “save-the-world” types would kill anyone they think would accomplish their goal if given the chance.

Wrong politics, wrong ideas, your diet, anything that would accomplish their mission in life.

Aha! Didn't know I was a closet tree-hugger. I use a nebulizer for my albuterol treatments, not an inhaler.

I too use a rescue inhaler from time to time and the amount of CO2 propellant in that small inhaler couldn’t be more than a cow fart. This study is ludicrous and wildly exaggerates the amount of CO2 released from rescue inhalers not that CO2 has any significance in the earth’s climate to begin with. Consider the amount of CO2 released in beer,seltzer and soda, let alone the tons being released from corn ethanol plants. This study has no scientific merit and should be debunked as total BS.

I am sympathetic to asthmatics but their affliction has been misused to support environmental hoaxes. People actually went along with shutting down coal fired electrical generation to help asthmatics. Electric rates have gone through the roof. AC is now a luxury. People did that for asthmatics. However now that the plants are closed asthmatics are no better off but the people are a lot worse off by suffering a steep decline in their standard of living. Don’t ever say Americans don’t sacrifice for asthmatics.

That was me. HFA = 1,1,1,2 tetrafluoroethane.

Our plant or Mihara made it.
The UK cleaned it up.
It was the main supplier for all inhalers.

Partly why I retired last year.

They already had throttled us down to 60% rates with the Kigali treaty.

The next hit was coming in 2-3 years.

That was going to take us to 30%

They were going to shut down the plant in 2028.

They’ve already weakened them decades ago

1980s inhalers had great propellant in them

Reminds me
I usually puff albuterol 2-3 puffs

The grey ones

The dark blue are cheaper but weak

Then my Trelegy
