Biden and his band of leftist nuts are ramping up this "emergency" that requires the population of the US to give up much of their wealth in order to satisfy the same people who decided to kill our economy over a virus. The vast majority of Americans can not afford to convert to less efficient and more costly energy sources to heat and cool their homes and to power their vehicles... I've been saying this for years on this bard and now we get to watch my prediction come true.
The middle class has no chance to grow at this point, only to shrink into poverty. Likewise, the poor have little chance to escape poverty and will instead die off at a much faster rate.
I'm really hoping someone can explain the math to me and tell me why I'm wrong. I know people in my circle who are already struggling just to buy the basics and pay for fuel in order to get to work every day. Europe is feelingt the same pain and it's only going to get worse because the people making these life or death decisions don't care about people, they only care about controlling the people.
I'm going to use this thread to post the evidence that proves me right, but if you have evidence that proves me wrong, please post up and lets talk about it.
HERE is the reality of fossil fuels,HERE is the future NOW ......millions of people THRU OUT THE WORLD
have been reduced to ashes or a bare existence. The USA is not going to escape the wrath of wanton neglect. The globe is giving u a glaring warning....MAKE THE CHANGE OR PERISH
In the US’ northern neighbor Canada, so far in 2021, 4,576 forest fires were reported. This amounts to 1,000 times more than the average rate of the last decade. A total of 2,150 hectares of forestland burned within a year.
The Hayman fire, 2002, burnt 138,000 acres.
For those unaware, the Hayman fire covered parts of Park, Douglas, Teller and Jefferson counties. was started by a jilted female employee of the Forest service.
The last time Alaska reached 2 million acres burned on July 2, 2015,” the fire service wrote. “More than 5.1 million acres burned across the state during that fire season, the second highest total for acres burned in the past 20 years. For the entire 2019 fire season, Alaska saw about 2.6 million acres burned.”
The National Weather Service listed the entire Interior region in Red Flag Warnings, and much of Southwest Alaska is under an Air Quality Advisory, while above-normal temperatures are expected for Southeast Alaska.
My brother lives i n Fairbanks,i spoke with him last week....he can't even see across the road the smoke is
so heavy.
Every time the West shuts down a coal plant, China and India each build a new power plant. And theirs most likely are missing much of the pollution safeguards the West requires.

Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
The U.S. heat coincided with a historically extreme European weather event, which so far has killed more than 1,000 people and fueled wildfires that have prompted 40,000 to evacuate. A staggering 34 weather stations broke the 101.7 degrees threshold in Britain, logging temperatures higher than anything Britain has ever observed.
Irony, Europe closes nuclear power plants and replaces them with more solar panels and wind turbines than ever before and Europe gets record heat levels. Despite buying less natural gas and oil from Russia.
Maybe the "experts" don't know what they are doing?

You can talk about the chimate change till you're blue in the face HA, but you can't ignore the reality that we can not collectively afford to convert to less efficient energy sources NOW. You also can't show any evidence that our conversion will do anything toward changing the earth's climate if China and India are ramping up coal fired plants and and Europe is having to backpedal on green energy that isn't working.
If the US can't make a difference, even if we bankrupt ourselves, why should we commit a collective suicide? Yelling, "WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING!!" does'nt help if that something is like trying to bail water out of the ocean.
Show me an article that actually does the math and explains logically how we can afford to convert and that the conversion will be worth the pain because it will reduce the temperature. I don't think you can.
More than 100 million people in the Lower 48 states are under heat alerts on Thursday amid relentlessly sweltering temperatures that have soared as high as 115 degrees in recent days.
