NYC Mayor to Cut Carbon Emissions by Cutting Off Food
Front Page Magazine ^ | 18 Apr, 2023 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 04/18/2023 6:13:22 AM PDT by MtnClimber

The American Left is just Pol Pot in slow motion. The global warming scam is just an excuse to take everything away from you to save the planet.

Everything? Yes, everything.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Chief Climate Officer and New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Commissioner Rohit T. Aggarwala today released the city’s first integrated greenhouse gas inventory, which incorporates emissions from the production and consumption of food. Those emissions represent 20 percent of New York City’s overall emissions — the third largest source, behind buildings (35 percent) and transportation (21 percent).

Just like cars and individual liberty, the food will have to go. New Yorkers will look back nostalgically for the days when Mayor Bloomberg merely wanted to cut salt and ban soda. They’re coming for your meat, fish and eggs.

In response to the new inventory, Mayor Adams and Mayor’s Office of Food Policy (MOFP) Executive Director Kate MacKenzie also announced that the city will reduce absolute carbon emissions from food purchases across its city agencies by 33 percent by 2030.

Just wait until they do an inventory of carbon emissions based on population and announce that they’re cutting the population by 33% by 2030. If you don’t think it’s coming, look to the history of the Left.

“New York City is leading the world when it comes to combating climate change, because we’re using every option on the menu in our fight — and that includes changing our menus, too,” said Mayor Adams. “This new emissions report shows us that plant-powered food isn’t just good for our physical and mental health, but good for the planet as well. We’ve already made great strides in reducing our food emissions by leading with plant-based meals in our public hospitals

You’re not wrong. Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel (brother of former Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel) says that anyone over 75 should be denied expensive medical treatment. No matter that those folks worked hard and payed taxes all their lives. Just give them two aspirins, and send them home.

Funny how this great doctor is silent when over-75 big shots are treated (former presidents, senators, etc.). I guess George Carlin was right. It’s a big club, and we’re not in it.

They worship the earth as their god. Humans don’t matter.

Romans 1
21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools,
23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,
25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.

I recently learned The Bee created “Not the Bee,” for all the news stories which sounded like The Bee wrote them, but were actually not a parody.

I think most headlines today are from the Bee. Shocking what’s going on.

The atmospheric content of CO2 rounded to the nearest 1/10 % is ZERO!

Seems like restaurants would be a large, obvious “inefficiency” here.

Though really, isn’t NYC’s “useless-eater” population its biggest, most direct, carbon profligacy?

“the city will reduce absolute carbon emissions from food purchases across its city agencies by 33 percent by 2030”

Translation: no more meat in school lunches.

Awww yes, this is the IDIOT, who this morning on the news said that “New York City was the SAFEST BIG CITY IN AMERICA”. What alternate universe does this DUMB-BELL LIVE IN? He certainly doesn’t live in the real world where most of us reside. GOD HELP AMERICA. Don’t tell me America ISN’T UNDER JUDGEMENT FROM GOD ALMIGHTY!

The comments here reflect the legitimate concern of intelligent people.

I had the same reaction....but then I thought:

Where do the riots always start? Where are they the bloodiest and most dangerous?

The big cities...especially the big cities with a large percentage of foreign born and non-whites.

There will come a point that NY City will burn to the ground, brought on by food and power shortages.

The libs and communists are digging their own graves. Be smart, don’t be anywhere near there when it begins.

Good. Food riots will be a cleansing moment for the commie trash “supposedly” elected to be in charge of the cesspit that is NYC. Coppers won’t stop them.

Burn it down. Not the stores, the apt and hotels that house the rich. Take the issue to the ones directing the disaster. faced with a hundred pitchforks and torches private security will step aside.
