The biggest misconception is held by leftists and conservatives alike. All these actions are almost meaningless compared to the most important (AND easy) action you can take - just stop eating meat! That will have greater effect than a lifetime of not taking planes. And your health will benefit too!

No loss to society if leftists do not reproduce, the gene pool needs cleansing. Conservatives are having more children and hopefully that trend will continue.

OFFS! Climate choice is moving from a place you don’t like the weather to a place you do like the weather. Fookin’ ap.

“…Trump spotted the wave and surfed it into office…”

Yep! As I have written before, the best indicator of Trumps talent and intelligence was that he gauged precisely when he could successfully step in to counterbalance the insanity of the Left. He knew how much crazy was enough.

LOL!

That’s an MA all day long.

And for the record, I have an MS. In engineering. You know, real stuff. Had to be able to do multi-dimensional calculus and differential equations, that sort of thing.

MS, Journalism

LOLOLOLOL!

AND, he relentlessly defined and spoke about the crazy and called out the leftist activism in the corrupt media. IOW, he didn't slither in, he boldly called out why he should be elected.

“Tell us, CALEIGH WELLS, Climate choices reporter, what is your scientific background”

How DARE you question her qualifications!

“W&L’s accredited journalism department pulled her to Lexington. She triple-majored in journalism, sociology and politics and minored in women’s, gender, and sexuality studies....

But in 2018, while Wells was working as a general assignment reporter at KPCC, her husband, Austin Frank ’17, started experiencing anxiety specifically focused on climate change. In an effort to help him, she researched ways they could limit their carbon footprint. They began to eat less meat, started composting and replaced her car with a plug-in hybrid.”

Dog farts? From eating meat? You can see why folks do not take science seriously anymore

Ya,,,no.

While vegetarian diets are often associated with positive health outcomes, they pose risks .

Nutritional deficiencies, particularly in vitamin B12, iron, calcium, and omega-3 fatty acids, are common concerns. Furthermore, certain aspects of vegetarian eating, like increased reliance on refined carbohydrates or high intake of certain vegetables, can contribute to health issues.

My dogs eat meat, and I assure you they fart. It isn’t pleasant if you’re close by.

Am I feeding them less meat?

HECK NO!

Miscalculate = don’t care or don’t believe it.

Anyone who takes this climate nonsense seriously should be institutionalized.

Is this driven by Islam’s influence on the Left? They hate dogs (And beer and women in bikinis. Not sure why they want to come here.)
