The whole climate change thing has been a scam since day one.

“The environment was never the concern; it was a front for corruption and communist-style control.”

I’ve mentioned it before and I’ll mention it again. I was around during the Cold War, going to college at ESU. Saw all of the Leftists, many openly Communist, protesting everything the US did militarily, they also protested in support of the ‘environment’, but to a much lesser extent. It was clear that they wanted a Soviet victory in the Cold War, or if not, then they’d destroy the economy via environmental regulations.

Well, 1990 came, Earth Day, coupled with the collapse of the USSR - and those SAME PEOPLE put away their Soviet flags and Che tee-shirts and, with USAID no doubt funding them, they made the FASTEST political pivot I’ve ever seen and it was like “what Cold War, we need to SAVE THE PLANET!!”. And so, with the USAID-controlled media operating in full blast, the planet had to be SAVED.

So, you are correct, the Environmental groups at least started out as Communists that no longer were able to strive for the Soviet Union to defeat America, so they immediately pivoted to the ‘Environmental Movement’.

How much money did Obama and other make from Solyndra before it went under? It was all from taxpayers.

First “Earth Day” was in April of 1970.

What does “climate justice” even mean? Years ago I used to go camping and exploring in the Mojave Desert near Ivanpah, originally an 1870s railroad watering hole. It was a beautiful, pristine desert there until the solar plant went in.

My daughter is flying to Seattle this weekend for a concert being held at the “Climate Change Arena”.

Hope she enjoys the music, but I’m LMAO.

“First “Earth Day” was in April of 1970.”

True, it was the 20th Anniversary. No one ever heard of it for years...and then it CAME OUT OF NOWHERE (more likely, got USAID funding).

How do you shut down a solar cell, blanket? Sun light shine on solar cell, generate electricity. Cut wire? What’s the lifespan of a solar cell with stuck electrons?

Ivanpah uses mirrors, not solar panels.

We have dumped over $1.5 trillion into this boondoggle and created nothing but hazardous waste.

Gaia worshipers. Thank goodness we’ve been able to resist much harder than Britain and Germany have. We’ve wasted huge amounts of money but we were able to prevent the Gaia Worshipers from completely wrecking our power grid like they have in those two countries They’re both economically screwed now. They have energy costs that are literally 4X to 5X what ours are rendering them economically uncompetitive with no quick fixes in sight. Germany is rapidly deindustrializing. Its large chemical industry is all but dead and all manufacturing soon will be.

This is what “environmentalists” do to the environment. Like all leftists, they are absolute hypocrites, liars, and fraudsters.

“Climate justice” means dumping pollution on white people.

It is about anti-white hate, all of it.
