Rod Stewart Fears That 'We're Too Late' to Stop Global Warming

Rod Stewart is worried that any action taken to combat climate change wouldn't be enough to stop it.

Speaking to Chris Evans on the How to Wow podcast, Stewart said, "I think the good Lord is intent on wiping us all out, because we’ve spoiled the Earth. We’ve spoiled it. I think it’s too late to turn back now, I think global warming is going to spoil the Earth. We’re literally, I believe we’re too late. ... And now with that prick in the White House, pulling out of the Paris Accord, it’s terrible."

Stewart contrasted the mood during the coronavirus pandemic to that of Britain during World War II. He shared some wisdom from his 91-year-old sister, who told him that "when the air raids were finished, the siren would go off. Everybody would go to out in the streets and off to the pub if it was still standing, and go to the theater if it was still standing. With this, you can't. No, you just can't. We're gonna go into another lockdown again."

The singer's summer tour with Cheap Trick had to be postponed as a result of the pandemic. While he doesn't know when he'll be able to sing in front of an audience again, Stewart has a vision of returning to the stage by inviting fans to his Los Angeles home for a celebration rather than going out on the road.

"I have 54 acres here, and I have one field over in the back," he noted. "And every time me and [wife] Penny [Lancaster] go over there we go, 'This would be great for a festival. It's perfect.' That's what I'd love to do. ... You'd get 50,000 in there easily."

Too bad he didn’t have a good singing voice.

Global warm1ng is a leftist dream, it’s their current canard.

Agree. I think Rod has been hit in the noggin with a soccer ball one too many times. You’d think the Brits would welcome a little global warming. It’s freaking chilly over there ;)
Btw, I went to a few of his concerts back in the day and his big thing was to kick soccer balls out into the audience.

Well Rod Stewart, you can always sign up for
Elon Musk's one-way Mars Getaway Special; to launch
sometime this century. You have the cash for a one way
ticket. Elon's looking for passengers.

I hear you Rod. Here in the Northeast, it is about 6:09 pm, and I fear that it is probably too late to stop the sun from going down. If only we had acted hours ago, maybe we could have prevented the night.

But we didn't listen, we didn't act as we witnessed the sun going across the sky, we were in denial, we didn't heed the people saying 'night will come.'

They were saying the same thing about THE COMING ICE AGE back in the 1970s. I still remember a wild hared scheme to mine coal, grind it to dust and spread it on the glaciers to stop the coming ice age.

Then in 1980 was this ...

POPULAR SCIENCE, Feb 1980..
PS/What’s News ....
page 73
Changing the weather intentionally or otherwise weather modification..(Earth cooling vs Greenhouse effect)

“Do you suppose we can learn enough, soon enough, to pull off a balancing act with the CO2 blanket saving us from another ice age?”

Sometimes it seems apolcalyptic here. Local governments run us like slaves and we take it. Saddest effing thing. But I have a lot of people to take care of and I end up giving up and just trying to do my best and keep my little house happy.

And all the fuel and energy used by the fans to get to his little festival doesn’t cause any climate change?

He's just mad because the song, Physical was written for him, but he turned it down, and it became the biggest hit of the decade for Olivia Newton-John.

I hear ya. From the 1960s when I was a child up to the early 2000s I visited America and her great cities including LA on many occasions and had wonderful times in them. Since then I haven’t visited due to my having to take care of family etc. and now while I’d like to visit again I’m a bit cautious.

The cognitive disconnect is strong with this one.

It made him a reknowned scientist.
