Corporations won’t pay for “climate change damage”, their customers will.

1-There are no damages.
2-There is no "climate change pollution"
3-There is only fabricated crisis to use to manage the populace.

What damages? If you pay me $1 billion to do a study, I'll find a bunch of damages.

I bought a new car from a small yesterday and the owner was telling me their last census survey, which they were forced to fill out or else fined, was all about “What are you doing to help climate change. . She said it was a pages long form asking very personal questions. We have so losing this fight.

Shouldn’t you start by proving they ARE damaging the climate before we try to calculate reparations, Ivan?

Next step in the communist agenda. Nationalist take over of all private business and incorporation. Soon everything will be owned by the state through debt.

Everything begins with the lie climate change is bad for earth and its inhabitants. There is climate change. It has existed since the earth was formed. The last 400 years there has been a warming trend. Over that time the population has exploded. But concurrently every measure for quality of life has increased. Even the number of deaths as a percentage of population due to natural disasters has declined. Everyone involved in the climate lie should be banned from working in any government position, any teaching position and never receive a dime of taxpayer dollars. It is their ignorance and lack of intelligence that is a danger to the world.
