Like any other “crisis” “women, persons of color, LGBT+ hardest hit”. There is climate change occurring, but it’s G-D MADE CLIMATE CHANGE.

“PHOENIX (AP) — … After experiencing global warming’s firsthand effects, U.S. Latinos are leading the way in activism around climate change, often drawing on traditions from their ancestral homelands”

Grade “AAA” Bullshit

These freeloading bass turds need to go the hell home and clean up the sewers THEY CRAWLED OUT OF. They don’t need to be up here in the U.S. setting up taxpayer supported government jobs for themselves. Deport them. Mexico needs the activists worse than America does. GTHO!

“Global warming” would mean that we raise bananas in Labrador, and no longer have to depend on Guatemala.

And think of the savings in shipping costs as these Labrador-grown bananas were shipped to Europe across the Arctic Ocean.

Greenland at last becomes truly green. Where they could grow citrus and avocados, and perhaps even vineyards.

I just do not see a downside to global warming.

I have two granddaughters in the Phoenix area, one Latina & one Anglo-Saxon. I will have to ask them which one is suffering more.

Bullet points of the article.

Hispanics:

Moved to the desert

Will not plant trees or grow grass

Poor diet gives them diabetes, heart and kidney disease

It sounds like Senorita Snow has been snortin' a little too much snow. The sewerage and garbage floating up on California beaches is coming from the latino's "ancestral homelands". DON'T DO DRUGS!!! And stop peeing on my leg and telling me it's raining, IDIOT!!!

I would bet that, 90%-98% of Latinos have no clue or don’t care about climate-change.

But, like most of democrat statistics, AP is making it up as they go and as they want to guess.

That a couple or a few Latinos are engaged on climate-change research, does not mean that a lot of Latinos are engaged and care about climate-change.

"U.S. Latinos often live in ignored, lower income neighborhoods that are degrees hotter than nearby areas because they have a higher population density and limited tree canopy."

You could say the same thing about millionaires living in high-end condos in Manhattan. I get so tired of this BS.

Well, they could always become Canadians.

"Poor diet gives them diabetes, heart and kidney disease."

I went to a sit-down Mexican restaurant a few days ago for the first time in several years, and I was reminded of the HUGE portions of carbs that are served in those places. The plates are double the size of a normal dinner plate.
