Greta Thunberg became the poster child for climate hysteria and fraud by sailing across the Atlantic in a supposedly zero-carbon yacht, the Malizia II, which in fact was made out of petroleum products from stem to stern
...
Malizia II, like the rest of the yachts in the Imoca 60 class, is constructed from high-tech carbon fiber composites to make it ultra light and fast. It is the ultimate play thing of the wealthy elite. These boats are made of hydrocarbons, not to mention all the energy it took to make them.
Carbon fiber composites are primarily made from propane and petroleum. This boat was pumped out of the ground.
Like the current clown-car group of Democrat presidential candidates and Hollywood liberals who fly private jets to climate conferences, Thunbergs fossil-fuel supported stunt was not about climate and not about real sacrifice. It was about shaming the Industrial Revolution and capitalism, things which have reduced planetary poverty to historic lows and fueled technologies that have raised the global standard of living to historic highs that more people than ever before share in.
It is not about climate. It is about creating a climate of fear, a picture of imminent planetary doom that can only be forestalled by governments control of every aspect of our lives from the energy we use, to the food we eat, to the land we use, to our modes of transportation.. Everything from cows to combustion engines are bad.
...
Something wicked this way comes and it is called the Green New Deal. The direct descendant of Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030, it will, if fully implemented, complete President Obamas promised fundamental transformation of America from the land of the free to the home of the impoverished and enslaved.

UN Agenda 21 ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
Exactly!!
Thanks for posting this good reminder, George.
Thanks to the bush clan for getting us into that. No, really. :-(
You mean the one that crams all into cities to freeze or roast in the dark when their unicorn poop driven Solar and Wind Power fails to deliver?
“when their unicorn poop driven Solar and Wind Power fails to deliver”
It’s funny, but actual poop driven power sources would be more reliable and feasible than the stuff that the greenies want us to rely on.
Yeah, but unicorn poop doesn’t pollute like burning other manure, and it smells like baking cookies.

If they’d go to nukes then things might work - even electric cars could work (for commuting - if it’s not too cold) when there are nukes to recharge them.
I should have connected those dots but it didn't occur to me.
Thanks for the ping.
They absolutely gave it a boost, but it actually started in the mid 60s with Cloward Piven.
I would like to be on this list if I may?
You are added.
Thanks
Thank you!
zero-carbon yacht made out of CARBON. :)
Absolutely.
