They will not be happy until we are sitting in the dark, either cold or sweating to death, while trying to locate by candle-light our dinner of bugs and mealworms.

Do they remember all those poor folks in France burning up to death back in the 90s when a heat wave hit?
You can bet a Federal Euthanasia bill is coming down the pike for those who insist on surviving Gaia’s reapers.
They are not. SCOTUS should plan a busy season.
Then there will be an epidemic of elderly dying from heat exhaustion.
I think I actually remember that.
Happened to in Chicago in the 90s.
Now why don’t you most likely remember that? Who was in the White House then?
These mental midgets need to be removed....gone. Never to return.
But not the right people. yet.
