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...
**SNIP**
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.”

If this is what this writer puts on paper, can you imagine the monster that lives in his head?
No of course not... but it does help flailing democrats escape the 'liberal elite' plantation when they realize their so-called leaders are lying sacks of hypocritical sh*t...
Biden just claimed in the UK that the greatest danger to our national security is global warming. See how easy life will be under Biden?(nothing to worry from Russia or China. Trump was just an alarmist) That many will be unable to support their family in the future because jobs are going overseas is not being considered.
We are up the creek without a paddle and/or boat and a-hole deep in fearsome alligators.
Sorry that I rained on your Thursday. Biden is truly God’s punishment on America after Trump’s glorious MAGA days. All we can expect from now on is misery and then comes the End.
Really, Biden's nuts.
But the 'global warming BS' isn't as stupid as the 'greatest danger' being from 'white supremacy'. It's a small step forward...
Someone must have asked these idiots to put their proof on the table about white supremacy - and beyond a few southern good ole boys with a confederate flag and hundreds of fake hate crimes, they had NOTHING... So we're back to global warming ...
Global warming - the stupid MAYBE IN A HUNDRED YEARS TEMPS WILL GO UP ONE HALF OF ONE DEGREE... AND IN A CENTURY SOUTH GEORGIA WILL FEEL MORE LIKE NORTH FLORIDA...
LOL
Yep! We’re in the Climate Doldrums.
We’ll need to throw trillions of dollars at the Climate sails to get it moving again.
