Biden unveils extreme heat plan – but doesn’t declare climate emergency
Guardian ^ | July 20, 2022 | Oliver Milman David Smith

Posted on 07/21/2022 12:50:46 AM PDT by ifinnegan

Facing the disintegration of his climate agenda as ferocious heatwaves hit large parts of the world, Joe Biden has unveiled a new plan to push billions of dollars to US cities and states to help them cope better with extreme heat.

The president stopped short, however, of declaring a climate emergency.

So he didn't do it - declare a "climate emergency".

"The White House said the heatwaves showed the climate crisis is a “clear and present danger” to the US."

These are idiots running things, illegitimately, who don't even know it's hot in Summer, cold in Winter.

This entire article is a propaganda piece pushing to declare a "climate emergency".

And the things they threaten to do are outrageous.

"“Biden must declare a climate emergency, ban crude oil exports and halt new fossil fuel infrastructure, including pipelines and export terminals,” said Wenonah Hauter, executive director of Food & Water Watch"

I don't know what's worse or scarier, that they believe this or that they know it's all nonsense but are using it for their goals.

Both are crazy and it is a dangerous and insane world that is pushing this full throttle.

“Any excuse to pump up the blue city slush funds. Wanna bet there’s never gonna be an audit?”

Yep. Just read it.

Total pork slush fund 10% for the big guy scam.:

They act as if it’s never been hot before.

Biden’s actions include $2.3bn in funding to help communities prepare for heatwaves, droughts and floods, new guidance that allows the federal government to help provide cooling centers and air conditioning, and new planned offshore wind energy leases for the Gulf of Mexico coast.

“Right now, there are millions of people suffering from extreme heat at home so my team is also working with the states to deploy $385m right now. For the first time, states will be able to use federal funds to pay for air conditioners in homes, set up community cooling centres in schools where people can get through these extreme heat crises.”

Climate and global warming polls very low. Even w Democrats it is only at 3%. Slow Joe is doing a feint. Climate will be minimally mentioned in the months before the election.

The average American family intuitively knows that so-called climate change is a scam. Global warming is run by Fem Dems in coastal cities. No one in suburbs and rural gives a sh___ one way or another. They just deal w life’s vicissitudes.

Electric vehicles are good enough in the cold. Norway has 70%electric vehicles.

Note that I’m not saying they are good for all situations. But in cities and many built up areas, ev are a great option.

In rural areas internal combustion are good

LOL. I grew up in the American South like a lot of other Freepers, with summer temperatures in the 90s. Night temperatures in the 80s. 90% humidity. AC was a rarity; few could afford it. .

I never thought I was particularly hot; it was summertime after all. I mean, what do you expect in the summer? People have been living in hot climates for millennia. It's what humans do.

Yep.

It was regularly 110 in July/August when I grew up in the 70’s.

Sometimes in October during Indian summer.

Unfortunately you are right.

There are idiots, a lot, who believe it and allow it.

The “heatwave” he’s feeling are his disastrous poll numbers.

FDR and Nixon got away with ruling by decree like some kind of Roman emperor because (a) they won honest landslide victories, and (b) they dealt with genuine national emergencies. Xiden, by contrast, “won” a stolen election and is pushing an obvious hoax that’s ironically both communist and plutocrat.

It *won’t* end well for His Fraudulency or his regime if he attempts to impose electricity or gasoline rationing to “save the climate.” The Democrat media cry all the time about the January 6 “insurrection.” The red state governors and peoples would give them something to cry about if Xiden tried shutting down fuel distribution and power plants!

What we need are more "community organizers" to help spread around that $2.3B

Here’s an idea….how about diverting those dollars and the money going to the proxy war in the Ukraine, and putting it into nuclear power stations, and hardening the electric grid?

They’re not afraid of the climate change that they preach about. Climate change is a distraction. They’re overpopulating the states with equatorial migrants to enlarge and cheapen the labor pool. They expect resources like fuel and food to be inadequate as a result, so they want more control over resources while preventing future competition with regulations and housing shortages.

They’re rent seeking slavers.

It’s summer, it gets hot. I’m guessing in the winter it will get cold…the climate does change.
