“Māori and disability rights campaigner Kera Sherwood-O’Regan (Kāi Tahu iwi from Te Waipounamu)....”

I am just now returning from NZ. Wonderful trip, but to the issue at hand on a wildlife tour where we saw some endangered penguins. He mentioned that the Maori came over about 400 years and that didn’t help. I asked “did they eat penguins?”

He laughed and said they ate anything and everything and as much as they could.

Who would have ever thought climate change is racist

“Environmentalism” is the epitome of “white people problems”; many others (and many uninvolved whites) have higher priorities than sham science.

Environmentalism is the left’s replacement for Judeo-Christian values, and they embrace it because they’ve had no “cause du jour” since the Vietnam War ended.

Telling Indian or African women their cooking fires are polluting Mother Earth just doesn’t work...

Exactly right. It has been described as the default religion of white urbanites.

All he had to do was move to the Nigerian branch office.

Why am I not surprised by this?

Thanks; unfortunately, blacks and Hispanics in other countries have latched onto it as a means of extorting money from modern countries (seeking “climate change reparations”) - and they are being given a pulpit to push this BS.

When I see certain groups outside stores leaving empty trans fluid and motor oil containers in the parking lot (because their vehicles are leaking these fluids all over our roadways), I know that at least within the US, this movement has gained 0 traction with them.
