The leftists always claim to be "pro-science".

Along the Ohio River are some of the most massive state of the art coal powered electrical generation plants in the world. I challenge any person to stop by any one of them.

Those of us of a certain age know what burning coal smells like. Do any of these modern coal fired plants offer any hint of pollution? Nada. Nothing. No smoke. No smells. Other than a little water vapor, there is no sign of any activity. They have so many pollution controls including carbon scrubbers that you might as well be visiting a shopping mall.

It is obvious to me that the Left are science deniers.

This will hurt too many “immigrants”.

They just need to start rounding up white people and putting them in camps with no heat or AC.

That is “justice”, according to the left.

Let them freeze in the dark. “””

It might be a race between freezing to death or starving to death.

Farmers CANNOT comply with these rules, and food WILL NOT be grown to feed the population.

And there goes agriculture in Holland. Farmers should plow their crops, under-cull their herds, and demand to be compensated for the reminder of their lives and the lives of their heirs. Stupid decisions by courts should hit those who allowed such courts to have such control.

Exactly.

The government should impose draconian measures to cut energy use.

Every homes should be forced to have a government controlled thermostat. Electric meters should have an automatic shut-off if a home exceeds their allotted limits. Tax gas to force people to walk and bike.

Just have the government issue a list of the most extreme proposals they can think of.

When the people realize what 'cutting energy' means they'll lynch the activists (and maybe the judge).

The Netherlands contribures less than .5 percent of human CO2 emissions. Even the most draconian proposals would reduce this to say, .4 percent. Virtually a rounding error. This is mere virtue signaling albeit with a heavy cost for the Dutch people.
