German Chancellor Angela Merkel says the Group of Seven wealthy democracies have agreed that the world should phase out the use of fossil fuels by the end of this century.
Merkel said Monday that the G-7 leaders committed themselves to the need to “decarbonize the global economy in the course of this century.”
That is a technical term for ending the use of oil, gas and coal – but not nuclear power – and replacing them with alternative sources of energy such as wind and solar power.

I live at Ground Zero for liberal kookiness in California. Yesterday it hit 85 degrees and I noticed every single car around me had its windows up and AC blasting. If these people REALLY cared about the environment, they'd have their windows down and AC off. Better yet, they'd sell their cars and walk. But nope -- liberal hypocrisy on parade (what's new?).
“German Chancellor Angela Merkel says the Group of Seven wealthy democracies have agreed that the world should phase out the use of fossil fuels by the end of this century”
Have agreed that the world “SHOULD”......
Never anything concrete by these morons. It will only be when the global community can fully explain the impact of their actions will I take them seriously. If Carbon is causing global warming, it only makes sense that lack of carbon will cause global cooling. At what point does that happen and how do they propose to fix it?
That's how all of these 'true believers' are. Whether we are talking about Dead Red Ted Kennedy's insistence on nationalizing healthcare (and opposing any private market or self-reliance), opposing inherited wealth (and then shielding his estate), or uber globalist Walter Cronkite...
Cronkite glad to sit at the right hand of Satan!
Okie Dokie
The bigger question is whether it will happen by the time Obie leaves office. Our enemies all see a limited window of opportunity.
Fugly!
Anyone have the URL for that political cartoon showing a “scientist” saying “I’ll settle that science for you” while being handed a bag full of money?
As if anyone could predict what's going to happen in 85 years.
Here's my prediction; when all of the experts say go left; turn right!
Why wait?
Slap a ban on everything in their friggin’ lives that is powered by fossil fuels—AC, transportation, electricity.
Let them lead by example.
The way things are going the West won’t even exist in another 85 years (or at least be in some sort of ‘dominant’ role).
We are being sold out to China, India, and the Middle East.
Our wealth will be diverted to the third world to atone for our “sins” of ‘conquest’, ‘imperialism’, ‘consumption’, and ‘superiority’.
The globalists in their midst think they will be comfortable, no matter how the rest live.
And as it has been pointed out, those making these decisions will be dead for 65+ years by the time the note comes due.
I’m with you. Let them lead the way....Oh Wait...Germany is shutting down its wind power misadventure, if I recall correctly.
We aren’t even being sold a better mousetrap. There is no viable alternative being presented.
The baby and the bathwater are being thrown out because of self-hatred and Marxism.
Right in there with Michael J. Fox’s flux capacitor.
We’ll be flying into the future.
Your second word negates everything else in your post.
They might as well agree that all humans will live on Mars by 2100.
By next year it will be something else and then 10 years later still something different.......
None of them can solve problems in even one of their cities but they think they can solve the worlds problems in a small get together? Morons..........
The same person who can’t even get Greece to meet any deadlines wants us to accept this deadline. What a farce.
“Because we said so.”
Liberals are not inclined to give up THEIR comforts. Their goals are for everyone else!
And exactly how would these numbnuts get around the globe with solar and wind powered private jets?
