(CNSNews.com) - California Gov. Jerry Brown predicted that if carbon emissions aren’t reduced, billions of people will die from “heat events,” and one billion will be subjected to vector diseases.
“When you pick up the paper or turn on cable news, you’d think it’s another planet. It’s all about the nonsense of Washington, and carbon emissions are growing, and we’ve got to radically turn that around, or the migrations you’re seeing now are going to be child’s play,” Brown told reporters Tuesday at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
“We’re going to have widespread disruption, more conflicts, more terrorism, more insecurity because of climate disruption. The prospect is 3 billion people on this planet will be subject to fatal lethal heat events – 3 billion – and 1 billion will be subjected to vector diseases that they’re not now subject to now,” he said. “This is a horror.”
Brown was among a number of governors who established an alliance to reduce climate change in response to President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord.
When asked what states can reasonably do about climate change, Brown said, “California has adopted an extension of this cap and trade program, which will give us 20 percent of our greenhouse gas reduction. That’s a very important measure that would have gone out of existence in 2020, and that measure was voted by Republicans. It wouldn’t have passed without Republican support.”

Did Brown get his talking point from a McDonald’s marquee...’Over 3 Billion Served’?
More like Marshall Zhukov to me....
Jerry, I don’t think Obama and Holder handed out enough fast and furious guns to accomplish your purpose.
Well, it's a start.
Any calculations as to how many of those will be directly attributable to his jet-set lifestyle? Blood on your hands there Jerr!
Save us Moon Beam!!! Save us!!! LOL.
He got the info from Al Gore.
No, the current “migration” is taking place because of a war in Syria + opportunistic globalist politicians + Islamist dreams of taking over the West. Has zero to do with “climate change.”
I wish he’d get on it and never come back.
MoonBeam is a Science Denier.
It will be a mess to clean up Californians, but that population won’t make a big dent in 3 billion. Throw in India and China?
Jerry Brown is senile. I hope he wanders away and gets lost someplace, like on the freeway.
Since most of the places they say to be hit the hardest are where the worlds poorest people live, this could actually be a good thing.
Gets rid of the deadwood, and leaves more resources for the resourceful and productive.
And eliminate the Democrat base and those they want to bring here to vote Democrat.
More migrations, disruptions, conflicts, terrorism and insecurity. And all because of global warming? If anyone questions the sanity of Californians, just remember they elected this idiot.
Well, the Left has always thought that there was an overpopulation problem.
40 years ago Brown would have been committed to a mental institution.
ML/NJ
4 Billion will die of socialism.
Liberals ought to be right on board with this since they view humanity as a invasive species on the earth anyway.
Actually, the geologic history /many times repeated pattern says we WILL have another serious period of glaciation fairly soon (geologically speaking, a blink of an eye), and it’s a pretty good bet that’ll be very deadly if we humans don’t prepare well.
Heck, we may actually do better than we are now with a 3 deg. temperature rise!
