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 president’s 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 President’s 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.

“Allowed”?
Well then the solution is obvious to the Illegal Marxist in Chief, everyone in the world must be reduced to living in mud huts and walking to the welfare office.
Cept him of course, He is special.
He will have to have three AC units in his golf cart.
That kid is really starting to piss me off!
Sorry, Africans. Barry sez your SOL.
Obama is very talented at stupid...
This should be a hint as how he wants EVERYBODY to live, but himself and his elite colleagues.
I wonder what the reaction of the audience was when he said this?
He should erect a little corrugated metal hut next to the WH, shut the Big House down & move into the planet-saving digs. He can have a fan, but no AC.
A perfect example for Obamacare.........
Obama’s a effing idiot!
No, no, no! Can’t have them producing CO2! They can eat their food raw.
I hope he gets bitten by a tsetse fly..
At some point right thinking people need to rise up as one and say “Enough”.
Good grief! What an ignoramus.
Don’t forget Navy corpse-men.
I have (2) words that I DESPISE
Permission
Allowed
Use either around me and prepare to defend your position.
