Climate crisis solved! A quick, socialist-friendly path to environmental nirvana. Who could compl

The world’s simplest, cheapest, most elegant, and most easily supported plan to realistically lower global emissions in a material way. And it will be completely ignored, because, at the end of the day, the climate crisis is not about the environment. Read on…

  1. Brilliant! As an aside, I can’t help but compare the complete destruction of 100 years of Canadian climate data to the Nazi book burning in the ’30s. Irreplaceable and gone for eternity. Until, in this most recent case, they make new stuff up.

  2. Flying was a luxury she could afford to do without, and she set out to prove it (with the help of, well, a racing yacht and crew, but this isn’t some sort of Dickens tale now is it).

    Ha ha ha … no indeed. The eco-left want YOU to live a Dicksonian lifestyle of poverty and misery. THEY get the pool boys and boat jockeys to attend their every whim.

    But as to the main point … yes, let’s BAN all vacation travel. Everywhere, and by every means of transport. That is a luxury we can all live without. We should all make an eco-pledge of staycations for life. Makes as much, if not more sense than a pledge of no reproduction. One thing is a basic element of LIFE, the other is not.

  3. There was an extinction rebellion yell-a-thon at Calgary city hall yesterday as I was walking home. They had scribbled the usual slogans on the sidewalk with chalk (“we only have one home” around a globe, “think of the children”, “people before profits”, etc) and I was getting a good laugh about the level of thinking on display.

    A man and 2 women aging from about 40 to 60 were handing out leaflets. I asked one of the women “if things go absolutely perfectly for you, and the CO2 level drops to 160 parts per million, what would happen?” She glared back at me and said “we don’t talk to trolls”. After a few more polite exchanges about what is science and what is trolling (and asking whether they were science or religion based), I told them that if humanity hadn’t come along to increase CO2 levels that in between 5 million and 90 million years from now CO2 levels would drop to 160 PPM, and all land based life would go extinct.

    A few more sentences and she declared that it would be worthwhile to have all land based life go extinct if that meant no more humans. I’m pretty sure she was just trying to get rid of me, but the looks of discomfort on her companions faces was worth my time to engage with her.

    1. You know … I like animals, and treat the ones I don’t eat, as though they are beloved family members. But I just do NOT understand the human-haters among the animal-lovers. So they grew up in a dysfunctional family. So their first husband abused them and ditched them. So they’ve never been invited on a date EVER in their miserable lives. What does that have to do with hating their entire species? These people are the patient zeros of the intolerant left. They simply HATE everyone, but themselves. In truth, the world would be a better place if they just put themselves out of their misery … Robin Williams style.

      1. And the clock is ticking. If we haven’t found a way off of this ball of rock before the sun goes red giant, everything that was ever here was for nothing. So we’d better get back to the Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth (BIBLE) if we want a chance for our descendants to survive.

        Be productive and expansive, or die. It’s a pretty stark choice.

        1. The time line of what you describe is about 5 billion years from now. I doubt humans will be around to see it. Probably self immolate well before then. Dinos died via asteroid. We’ll die by our own hands and probably a lot sooner if you follow even today’s events. I’m seriously doubting humans will live past the next century mark IMHO/

          1. There have always been death and disaster cults and if you live your life with that in mind (live for the moment, do whatever feels good with little regard for the consequences), any kids or grandkids you have will lead poorer lives for it. Live productively and they’ll live in a heaven.

            And our only (future) defense against single incident destruction is getting off this ball of rock.

  4. A good idea, as Canada is flooded with millions of foreigners who arrive via jumbo jet. Shut down all international flights please.

  5. Why not reveal the C02 source partition originating from Pets & then FIND that Environmentalists have a secret order that all Dogs & Cats will be destroyed…. If you vote Socialist/Communist lassie & putty cat are DOA…

    Pet Rocks & some lizards are carbon neutral……enjoy the tears of the children.

    1. I’ve never used cement to save the planet. Just for normal stuff, basement foundation, driveway, etc.

  6. Answering a bunch of silly ideas with another is not helpful in the least.

    Technology can reduce co2 generation (if it’s needed – which I don’t think it is)

    Letting NG supplant coal where pricing is competitive is one.

    Spending more to bring CO2 emissions-free power generation from coal

    Is another.

  7. Idiot journalists could at the very least ask what group of millions of people get to starve to death and who gets to choose that group if we eliminate fuel from society.

    It’s a basic question, but not one “journalist” has the courage to ask. It’s maddening.
