Commentary: Biden plans to fight climate change in a way no U.S. president has done before (only 10.05 years left)
Press Herald ^ | 1/15/21 | Bill Ritter Jr.

Joe Biden is preparing to deal with climate change in a way no U.S. president has done before – by mobilizing his entire administration to take on the challenge from every angle in a strategic, integrated way.

The strategy is evident in the people Biden has chosen for his Cabinet and senior leadership roles: Most have track records for incorporating climate change concerns into a wide range of policies, and they have experience partnering across agencies and levels of government.

Those skills are crucial, because slowing climate change will require a comprehensive and coordinated “all hands on deck” approach.

**SNIP**

Pressuring other countries to take action Biden can quickly bring the U.S. back into the international Paris climate agreement, through which countries worldwide agreed to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions driving global warming. But reestablishing the nation’s leadership role with the international climate community is a much longer haul.

Former Secretary of State John Kerry will lead this effort as special envoy for climate change, a new Cabinet-level position with a seat on the National Security Council.

While 62 major utilities in the U.S. have set their own emission reduction goals, most leaders in that sector would argue that requiring net zero emissions by 2035 is too much too fast.

You will comply.

Just rig up the ‘California-solution’ and cut power every seven days for a day or two. Or run the ‘North Korea-solution’ and give everyone a brief eight hours of power per day.

Clearly, Joe Biden is prepared to fight climate change in the only way he knows how... fictionally. That would seem to be an inexpensive way of going... but it is not. Nothing will ever cost as much for as long. And that is what we will all get as a result, nothing.

“Pressuring other countries to take action Biden can quickly bring the U.S. back into the international Paris climate agreement, “

Of course, he will ignore that the US is the ONLY nation that has met the carbon reductions of the Kyoto accord.

He also has to ignore that in the time the crazy greens take to eliminate one US coal plant with scrubbers to remove CO2, the Chinese have built 250 new ones without scrubbers — so each Chinese plant emits about 10x the CO2 and other pollutants as the US plant they shut down. So obviously we cannot ask our allies in China to take any action.

He has to ignore the Chinese issue because the Chinese own him.

There is no fighting something that has been occurring for millions of years. Man, thinking he/she can play God and control Nature. The very same idiots who think they can control weather without ramifications, etc.

Death to liberty.

Of course, that means death to liberty for the little people. The elites in DC and in Hollywood and on Wall Street will continue to fly private jets, live on taxpayer dollars, live in multiple homes with HUGE carbon footprints....

Exporting CA blackouts and hyper expensive gas and electricity nationwide. Pure genius.

I’m investing all all public bicycle companies today. Will make a fortune when bicycles are mandated for but essential car drivers. Will also make a fortune providing/selling forged papers that people will need at the checkpoints to show they are an essential car driver.

Note: Freepers will get a 40% discount on forged papers that will be needed to show to the Eco SS checkpoint guards.

“Level the standard of living worldwide.”

There was a quote by some U.N. person (a female??) that was big on the climate change agenda. She said something about some climate change thing (Paris?) about how it would be the biggest restructuring of how the world economy worked ever. (Of course now I can’t find it.)

I recall reading about the globalization - the US government deliberately working to lower the standard of living in the US - back when global freezing was a thing. The globalists are fairly open about the direction they are taking, vague on specifics.
