From the article:
“Today, our fearless leader seems willing to see inflation, food shortages, hunger, and maybe even starvation before he will allow American oil companies to drill on our lands to supply us with needed fuel.”
It does not “seem” to be their plan ... any rational thinking person has to assume it “is” their plan.

Did we not adapt to climate change during the last ice age?
How about when all the ice melted 15-10,000 years ago?
Those people who lived in Sundaland or Doggerland had to move.
Won’t we adapt if the remaining ice on Greenland and Antarctica melt?
People in coastal areas will have to move. Again.
And by the way, a warmer world is a wetter world. Warm air naturally holds more moisture. Which means more rain, which means fewer deserts. In the future, people will say it’s a nice time of year to take a hike through those forests of Las Vegas...
We won’t see a “plan” because that would expose their goal…global depopulation.
Sorry Ned states rights is a good thing. Your comparison is BS. I stopped reading this screed.
As I have posted before, if man-made climate change is real, why should I believe the left has an actual solution?
They have failed to reduce poverty, crime, drugs, etc.
So, suddenly, they know what is the correct solution?
Sorry, but I’m not buying it.
Hypothesis, not theory. Theories, like the theory of evolution, pass tests. Hypotheses like AGW still need to be tested. Positing that a minuscule increase in atmospheric CO2 causes AGW rather than being an effect of solar cycles has yet to be determined.
IF we are going to impose harsh sacrifices for Gaia worship, then I have a better place to start than the SUV or barbecue grill or utility bill of the average family.
I say we ban private jets. Hold on! I know this will be a painful thing for most of us but private jets spew an enormous amount of carbon and move relatively few people. It would be far more efficient for those people to simply fly commercial.
Not enough? OK.
Next I’d ban yachts. I can hear your howls of anguish already but bear with me.
You don’t really “need” a massive yacht that produced a lot of carbon to build and which guzzles gasoline or diesel fuel to move around. You’ll just have to downsize to a more normal size boat - say max 30 or 35 feet in length. Don’t worry, you can still participate in water sports and go fishing. You could even still have a houseboat at that size. You just can’t have a giant energy sucking monstrosity.
Still not moving the needle enough? OK. Gulp! Most painful of all, we’re just going to have to limit the amount of square footage of residential property each person can own. Say, no more than 4,000 square feet per person. I’ll wait for the screams of anguish to die down.
This would still permit you to have that beach house or mountain house for weekend getaways while maintaining your main home. But the size of your ocean front mansion will be limited - OR you’re just not going to be able to have a giant energy sucking mansion and a ski chalet in Vale and a luxury condo in NY and another in Paris. You’ll have to sell off some of those - as painful as that is.
We all have to do our part. Gaia demands a sacrifice.
It appeared in the first sentence.
There is no such a thing as a fossil fuel.
You may ask, why, on every green thread do I say this.
Simple.
The whole premise of their argument lies with the stopping of fossil fuel use.
If there is no such a thing, they have no premise.
They have no argument.
I have mathematically disproven the theory of fossil fuels (yes, it is just a theory).
This is why math is racist.
