The irony is that concern over climate change — which is a real and legitimate concern

Goldberg is a kool-ade drinking idiot.

That is all modern environmentalism has ever been - a Front for Communism - Green on the outside, Red on the inside.

> Climate change is not the hoax that some claim it is.

It is a hoax with millions of years (i.e. ice cores showing much higher CO2 levels than we have now) of scientific evidence to disprove it.

The “climate change” advocates remind me of the nuclear freeze “protesters” of the 1980s. After the Soviet Union fell and the Venona cables were discovered, it became clear that (as long suspected by those of us on the right) the nuclear freeze movement was contrived and funded by the Soviets to push their agenda of disarming America. Similarly, the climate change hysteria is merely a front for a globalist, leftist agenda to weaken America economically, redistribute its wealth, and usher in a world government.

Tariffs on China and India and cutting back on use on massive cargo ships (which means making more stuff in America so they aren’t needed) would do more for environment that removing plastic straws.

Who made politicians running for President and liberals on T.V. experts on the environment? Most of these talking heads memorize talking points, with no understanding of the subject matter.

The natural process of climate change, which has existed for as long as the earth, is not a hoax. But the notion that humans cause climate change as a result of improving their standards of living, is.

Once you concede to the notion that CO2 is a harmful pollutant and that increasing CO2 level ( current level is 400ppm) is a bad thing then the green-reds have already won. NEVER GIVE INTO THE HOAX.

CNN had 7 hours of free advertising for Democrat candidates to come before the world and present their solution to fix climate change.

This is what the solutions were. All of which will cost US taxpayers trillions of dollars with to ROI.

1. Tax anyone who earns a paycheck.
2. Get rid of the only energy source that is cheap and clean.
3. Pay foreign governments to offer free abortion to women who want them.

Here’s the solution I would have proposed. Every country is held accountable to clean up their water resources. They have 5 years to do it or else they lose American funding. Every country is held accountable to clean up their air pollution. They have 5 years to do it or else they lose American funding.

After 5 years we will create a new baseline.

“But the notion that humans cause climate change as a result of improving their standards of living, is.“

Bingo. If actual climate change ever ceases, it will probably herald the end of Earth’s ability to support life.

The proper response to climate change (which is real) is - adapt.

If walking barefoot over gravel exposes the sole of your foot to injury, it has been found that putting leather between the sole of your foot and the gravel eliminates the potential for injury to your foot.

The liberal solution would be to lay down great sheets of leather everywhere there is gravel and people are inclined to walk. But the much better solution would be to cut out pieces of leather, the size and general shape of the sole of the foot, and secure these pieces of leather by means of thongs or straps of some kind to the foot. Much more economical use of the supply of leather, and it would not be necessary to go on ahead beforehand and lay down the leather to cover over the gravel.

Did anybody stop to think where the leather comes from?
