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 guy is certifiable.
Well I guess those poor Africans should go back to grass huts and just stay poor!
O is the source of more waste and excrement of any human being. He is personally responsible for death and decay across the globe. He knows whereof he speaks.
If Africa ever did modernize and get out of tribal mentality they would be the world’s powerhouse.
How much raw materials and energy reserves are they sitting on?
FUBO is right...we can’t have them improve! /s
A wind turbine for every hut!
All this because the country of his birth snubbed what he believes about homosexuality?

Ok, so its ok with liberals that black skinned people live in extreme poverty?
Besides what’s the big woop, we all know that soccer balls are going to save the Continent of Africa.

The comments he made regarding air conditioning and no cars will come to our country as fast as he can bring it, count on it.

"All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others"
