White House Targeting Economic Risks from Climate Change
Associated Press ^ | October 15th 2021 | Unknown

Posted on 10/15/2021 2:41:47 PM PDT by Jacquerie

The Biden administration is taking steps to address the economic risks from climate change, issuing a 40-page report Friday on government-wide plans to protect the financial, insurance, and housing markets and the savings of American families.

The report lays out steps that could potentially alter the mortgage process, stock market disclosures, retirement plans, federal procurement, and government budgeting.

“If this year has shown us anything, it’s that climate change poses an ongoing urgent and systemic risk to our economy and to the lives and livelihoods of everyday Americans, and we must act now,” Gina McCarthy, the White House national climate adviser, told reporters.

The report is also an effort to showcase to the world how serious the U.S. government is about tackling climate change ahead of the United Nations Climate Change Conference running from Oct. 31 to Nov. 12 in Glasgow, Scotland.

“We now do recognize that climate change is a systemic risk,” McCarthy said. “We have to look fundamentally at the way the federal government does its job and how we look at the finance system and its stability.”

Picking up where Bammy left off, Circle-Back Psaki recently said that Brandon intends to fundamentally transform the United States of America.

The New World Order and America's destruction are at hand.

And I'm regularly informed that an Article V Convention of the States is too dangerous to contemplate.

It is called WEATHER and has been happening and causing disasters since long before identifiable humans began walking the Earth.

I like to throw this statistic at libtards: You could comfortably fit EVERY PERSON ON EARTH into the State of Texas. That is how sparse and insignificant humans are.

Proof? TX has area of 7,494,271,488,000 ft^2. There are apx 7,700,000,000 people on Earth. This means every human would have 973 ft^2 - plenty of room to swing a cat even.

Deputy Treasury Sec’y Adeyemo: ‘Only Way’ Past ‘Transition’ That’s Causing High Prices Is to Get ‘Everyone’ in U.S. and World Vaccinated

During an interview with ABC News on Thursday, Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adeyemo stated that the economy is in transition, “and as part of that transition, we are seeing high prices for some of the things that people have to buy.” And “the only way we’re going to get to a place where we work through this transition is if everyone in America and everyone around the world gets vaccinated.”

Adeyemo said, “Today, we face an economy that’s in transition, and as part of that transition, we are seeing high prices for some of the things that people have to buy. That’s exactly why the president was focused in the American Rescue Plan in ensuring that we got stimulus into the hands of the American people so they’d be able to buy the products that they need. But the reality is that the only way we’re going to get to a place where we work through this transition is if everyone in America and everyone around the world gets vaccinated. That’s why the president continues to be focused on the idea that we get everyone who can vaccinated in this country. And then, while we’re doing that, we continue to provide the kind of resources the American people need to make it to the other side.”

In the video, he was also asked about the $600 bank account snooping. He said lower income people wouldn’t be audited so often because the government will already know where your money is coming from and going to.

If anyone can explain how getting the world vaccinated will solve our economic problems let me know.

The economic risk is created by trying to solve a non-problem.

It’s not, but Birchers keep claiming that we’re going to write a whole, new, USSA constitution if we have an Article V convention.

Bottom line, it is slavery. Humans have an innate desire to enslave fellow humans. Some humans want to be enslaved because it makes them feel safe. Probably some anthropological theory on this very subject.

Anyway...

The Global Warming movement is just that — a way to make the population slaves to their masters by massive and oppressive taxes on every living human on the planet. More so than others. More taxes on the prosperous nations like the United States.
