A CNN reporter thinks he found the silver lining in the global coronavirus pandemic.

Bill Weir claims there seems to be a “perception” that the temporary shutdown of industries across the globe “has helped humanity buy some time when it comes to global warming.”

He went on to link the origin of the virus to excessive deforestation, citing warnings from virologists “that an invisible enemy would come out of the jungles if we just kept cutting all of them down, and they were right.”

I dunno.... Fast food chains are still open, and you can go to the drive-through window in your SUV.... I thought that kind of tacky Flyover country behavior itself was the cause of global warming?

,,, when the Berlin wall fell the green/environmental religion was invaded by the west’s Communist refugees for repurposing. No secret that the media and education are their sheltered workshops.

I thought destroying natural habitats would cause animals to go extinct.

With reports of the water in Venice being better and stuff like that, I figured that the Greens would seize on this. Sometime I wonder if people would deliberately spread this. Now that tests are available, all they would need would be to find a few asymptomatic carriers and support them while they fan out over the country attending concerts, sporting events, etc. I cannot see how this could have happened in the initial wave, but they could make subsequent waves much worse. I hope the FBI is watching the radical greens closely.
