There’s no prison (yet) for climate criminals, but if there was, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro would have a spider-infested cell all to himself. Now that Trump is gone, Bolsonaro - a.k.a. “The Trump of the Tropics” or “Captain Chain Saw” - is the most dangerous climate denier in the world. In his two years as president, Bolsonaro has presided over the destruction of about 10,000 square miles of the Brazilian rainforest, one of the most precious ecosystems on the planet. And like Trump, Bolsonaro is proud of his efforts to f... up the planet. If people were so concerned about climate change, he once suggested, they could eat less and “poop every other day” to save the Earth. When Pope Francis called out the “blind and destructive mentality” behind razing the rainforest...

At Joe Biden’s climate summit in April, Bolsonaro talked a good game, committing to ending illegal deforestation by 2030. He also moved up the date for becoming carbon neutral from 2060 to 2050, and promised to double the budget for enforcing the forest’s protections. But according to a number of sources and published accounts, Brazil’s minister of the environment, Ricardo Salles, made the deal more explicit in backstage negotiations with the U.S. and other countries: Pay us $1 billion and we’ll cut deforestation by 40 percent for one year.
“It’s extortion,” argues Marcio Astrini, the executive secretary of the Brazilian Climate Observatory, an alliance of 63 civil society organizations. “Bolsonaro and his team are saying, ‘If you don’t give us the money, we don’t know what will happen to the Amazon.’ Everyone knows Bolsonaro is not interested in the climate. He is only interested in using the climate to extort money to use for himself and his friends.”

You don’t understand that of course this us 100% fake. Of course we will be ok.
That does not matter. They are going to use it to enforce their totalitarian rule.
Note how this author wants to jail Bolsonaro.
“There’s no prison (yet) for climate criminals”
No wonder the left considers Americans to be a domestic threat. It knows that kind of talk will lead to trouble plenty.
Hyperventilate much, Jeff?
The “climate criminals” are the con artists pushing the pile of garbage called “global warming”, “climate change” etc.:

Maybe this presstitute could explain how the Ice Age in the 1970’s turned into Global Warming?? Or how not a single factually certain prediction from the Religion Of Global Warming never came true??
Presstitution using a High Capacity transmission Device should be ILLEGAL!!
“What About Bob? Part 2” with Bill Murray starring as Jair Bolsonaro.
Wow...his enviro-woke credentials are stellar. Will he set himself aflame?

He moved to New York City and attended graduate school at Columbia University, where he received an M.F.A. in 1990.
In 2010 he published How to Cool the Planet: Geoengineering and the Audacious Quest to Fix Earth’s Climate[1] about geoengineering, global warming, and climate change mitigation. The book discusses ideas by Ken Caldeira, James Lovelock, David Keith, Raymond Pierrehumbert, Stephen Salter, and Lowell Wood among others. In 2011, How to Cool the Planet won the Grantham Prize (Award of Special Merit).
His most recent book, The Water Will Come: Rising Seas, Sinking Cities, and the Remaking of the Civilized World, which describes visits to places likely to be inundated by rising sea levels, was published by Little, Brown in October 2017. It was a New York Times Critics Top Book of 2017 and selected by the Washington Post as one of the 50 best non-fiction books of 2017.
Oh noes! Climate stagnation!
You are taking all those things out of context and you are therefore anti-science.
Thank you for the backstop. On first blush, I don’t see any evidence of a climate science degree, or any science degree at all.
Ding, ding, ding - we have a thread winnah!
Backstop = backstory.
Does anyone really think that, asking these ligitimate questions, will change the life styles of Obama, DiCaprio and Algore?
Of course. When you want hard-hitting science mixed with unprecedented insights into global economics, where else to turn to but the enlightened genii of Rolling Stone magazine?
BS = Bull Schiff
MS = More of the Same
MFA = M***** F****** A**hole.
Enviro-Nazis want to force Brazil not to cut down their trees. In Europe all the trees were cut down multiple times, beginning about 1000 years ago. In the UK all the trees were cut down to make the supports for the trenches used in France in WWI. All the trees in Michigan were cut down to re-build Chicago after the 1871 great fire. The UK shut down a coal plant and replaced it with one which burns wood pellets imported mostly from the US (DRAX), that’s how much they care about forests. Bolsonaro is an honest man who replaced the most vile criminal, Lula, who embezzled billions from the Brazilian people. His predecessor, Dilma Roussof, is a convicted bank robber. You can’t make this stuff up.
