Rock legend Neil Young told radio host Howard Stern on Tuesday that the "free world" ought to fight climate change rather than the Islamic State, or ISIS. Visiting the Howard Stern Show for a long-awaited interview, Young slammed both Democrats and Republicans for ignoring the plight of the planet, suggesting that environmental damage from the "carbon footprint" of the U.S. military was a greater threat than Islamic terror in the Mideast.
The relevant portion of the interview (excerpted by Canada's Sun News) begins at 50:14 in the video below:
(VIDEO-AT-LINK)
YOUNG: The things that we don't know, you know, we can do little things to fight climate change. And yet our army and our armed forces are the biggest CO2 providers into the world, they just...it's amazing. And yet we are fighting what? ISIS...
STERN: What do you think about that?
YOUNG: ...al-Qaeda. And we are fighting these wars against these organizations and their carbon footprint has got to be like 1% of our huge army and our navy and all of this stuff that have with all our big machines. We're doing more damage to the earth with our wars....

Apparently a much better time than I had.
My brain still functions most of the time.
It’s pathetic to see what a drooling moron he has devolved into.
Old man, look at your life.
very ashamed that this brain dead old doper has a palatial estate on the beach on our island , the dirtbag does not deserve it . F-ing Kanuck liberals , they infest warf rats .
Think I’ll go stage a protest at his security gate : Islamist-Nazi friendly Canadians GO HOME !
Neil Young obviously did too many drugs in the ‘60’s.
His brain has turned into crap.
What a clueless moron.
I say we send him to Iraq and have him ask ISIS to join him in fighting “climate change.” See how that goes.
send Neil to ISIS to give them a nice lecture on ‘climate warming’
(problem solved!)
Shut up and sing, Neil. Just shut up and sing.

Washed up, mediocre, one chord repeater, old man.
“Imagine if these people had been around during the Revolution or World War II...”
Oh, they were. They were imprisoned or shot as traitors. Rightfully so, too.
Yet another rock ‘n’ roller on how to save the world.
Maybe they should stick to their ‘music.’
Old Man...Go back and play with your trains.
Forget Neal Young.
This Southern man dont need neil round anyhow.
Go for a swim in Lake Superior, Neil.
I watched the rerun of Steven Colbert a little after midnight today. He had that lardass Neil Young as a guest. The guy is certifiable as a complete loon. Said the same crap about global warming that John Kerry, Al Gore, Sgt. Chuck Hagel, Obola and other idiots are constantly saying. Big BARF! Never liked any of the Stills, Nash & Young music anyway.
Why do we give a platform to aging rock singers, who probably have minds numbed and wasted by years of drug use????
*****************************
Beyond me why people still pay to see/hear Young, Steve Tyler, Springsteen, et al. Losers.
Thank you.
I never knew that the weather could chop off heads.
Chopped head is worse than a warm summer day.
Bwahahaha.
Neil Young is busy fighting with David Crosby.
So much for peace, love, and dope.

Neil is a great songwriter and musician; politics, not so much. Live at the Fillmore East is epic. but Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing
