White House: We Must ‘Make Irreversible Progress’ on Climate, Biden Has ‘Not Been Afraid’ to Use Emergency Powers
Breitbart ^ | 08/15/2023 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 08/15/2023 4:46:01 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During an interview with NPR’s 1A podcast released on Monday, White House National Climate Adviser Ali Zaidi stated that President Joe Biden has “not been afraid to use emergency tools where they’re justified” on climate, and his use of executive power has been “underappreciated.” Zaidi also stated that “It’s really important that we make irreversible progress as quickly as we can” on climate.

Zaidi said, “From day one of his administration, the President has treated the climate crisis as an emergency. He joined the Paris Climate Accords, set ambitious goals, passed historic legislation, and has used emergency tools, like the Defense Production Act, to deliver the resources we need to [combat] this urgent crisis. And he continues to look at additional tools and resources, authorities that he has to bring more resources to bear on this urgent, era-defining crisis that we have, and, frankly, unlock the economic opportunity associated with taking on climate change in this bold way.”

Given what the Left says about the dangers of climate change, if they were serious about it, they would be encouraging the development of nuclear power plants around the world.

They're not.

Ergo, the Left is only using climate change to push a political agenda.

Dictators never are. And dictators will always find an emergency when they need one.

They’d sooner make “irreversible progress” with filming the Loch Ness Monster. The only “progress” they will ever make with the climate is in their demented, moronic imaginations.

The end of “fossil” fuels is the end of food.

“Emergency Powers” are Dictator Powers. The urge to save humanity is almost always a false flag to control humanity.

We need facial recognition.

We also need digital currency.

And we need vaccine passports.

And cars with kill switches.

Government censorship.

But no worries, it’s not at all about control, power and of course money. It’s all for you and what’s best for the greater good.

These initiatives are probably why the press is not mentioning the Tonga Hunga underwater volcanic eruption as the source of the current heat waves. This eruption, lasting a week, added 15% to the water vapor in the air.

The heating effect will only last about 4 years before the water vapor returns to normal. So, they have to act now in order to get maximum benefit.

They would push nuclear power and hydroelectric if they were serious. But the eco wackos hate those power sources.

Give Democrats credit. They keep hammering their phony money-and-power scheme. They stick together. They don’t care about facts. They use science only when they claim it helps them. And, they sucker gutless Republicans into caving.

The end of “fossil” fuels is the end of food.

That means that most Americans only have 10 years to live. Unless you are in the military.

As we know it, I agree. But other ways may
be in the mix for nourishment may change as
time progresses. A tablet morning, noon, &
night may become the provider. Who knows.
Over the ages we’ve gone from walking, paddling
bicycles, auto, flying, trains to who knows what
is next.
