Obama: Planet Will Boil Over' If Africans Are Allowed Cars and Air-Conditioning
July 1, 2013 - 4:22 PM By Ryan Kierman
(CNSNews.com) President Barack Obama said at a town hall event in Johannesburg, South Africa, on Saturday that unless we find new way of producing energy "the planet will boil over" if people in Africa are allowed to attain air conditioning, automobiles and big houses.
Ultimately, if you think about all the youth that everybody has mentioned here in Africa, if everybody is raising living standards to the point where everybody has got a car and everybody has got air conditioning, and everybody has got a big house, well, the planet will boil over -- unless we find new ways of producing energy.
The presidents comments, made the day before unveiling his Power Africa initiative for a sustainable African energy strategy, came while speaking at University of Johannesburg-Soweto.
According to Obama, global warming constitutes the biggest challenge we have environmentally, one greater than all other environmental calamities like dirty water, dirty air.
However, the Presidents statements do not reflect statistics released by the United Nations: Based on a data released in October, 2012, the World Health Organization estimated that Global warming is responsible for approximately 140,000 excess deaths each year.
By comparison, as many as three million people died from indoor and outdoor air pollution in other words, over 20 times the number of alleged victims of global warming, according to the Word Health Organization.
The list of victims of unclean drinking water is even more staggering.

“the planet will boil over”...what an idiot. He’s starting to sound like Hank Johnson (Guam tipping over).
Stalin and Hitler did! Maybe not air but lived high on the hog!
The rest will be for the elites.
Mark
that is what he believes. look how he treats his own family the illegals in MA etc, those in Kenya.
You can always tell a man by the way he treats his family and boy he treats his family like crap , as for the kids and misses, well she runs that show not him
This comment is on par with the idiot congressman who said Guam would tip over if we dispatched too many Marines there.
You cannot question a narcissist. They are geniuses in their own minds.
Almost weekly he proves he can.
“Damn. Why does he hate Africans?”
That way he makes it fair!
This man is certifiably an enemy of the USA.
But then, he doesn’t want Americans to have cars and air conditioning either.

Georgia’s Hank Johnson says Guam will tip over, Obama says Africa will boil over.
Where do blacks like Johnson and Hybrids like Obama go to school?
He is one sick SOB and Ba$turd
He is also so grossly ignorant and twisted by some cynical, maniacal puppet-master
What a bunch of crap.
And what does that tell you about his view of our standard of living?
He’s a leftist kook.
wow. That comment by Obama was completely stupid. Unbelievably stupid. Wanna bet the Western press gives him a pass on it?
If Africans Are Allowed Cars and Air-Conditioning
who’s stopping them ? I spent 6 months in Rwanda I have an idea
Just keeping the black man down.
They should keep the zebra in Africa, where, he can enjoy the prosperity he wants for the Continent.
Not that there’s anything to global warming, but what’s one of the largest sources of CO2 emission AND deforestation? Poor Africans burning cow dung and biomass. Obama and his ‘experts’ are ignorant clowns.
you know that is one of the most truest comments I have read on here.
These people are so in love with themselves that they honestly think they’re smart.
How many of us on here have met one of these people, they come out with some right crap, they then think they’re smart and when you ask them questions they get all defensive due ot them not know the answers.
Only a few weeks ago I had a young woman who thought Obama was great until I questioned her and she was a dope , so much so my two youngest kids asked if she was alright mentally .
