You Know Who Worries About So-called Climate Change?

People who can afford to, that's who:

Americans are less concerned now about how climate change might impact them personally — and about how their personal choices affect the climate — than they were three years ago, a new poll shows, even as a wide majority still believe climate change is happening.

What's different now, I wonder....

It really appears to me that the people who can afford to worry about it aren't actually worried about it either. For example: the Obamas purchasing a very expensive, nearly sea-level house on Long Island, NY; and they're just one example of jet-set hypocrisy.
But they want the virtue-signaling appearance of caring. And there's a lot of money and influence to be found in crisis-chasing.

The governmental response to Covid showed us that doctors and scientists can lie to us about very important issues, and that journalists are complicit. We all know of historical examples of the government lying or journalists covering up important stories, but this happened to us and for a long time. We were instructed to mask up and isolate, but BLM couldn't be criticized because their cause was just. There were countless other examples.

I am a man of science and an environmentalist. I call bullshit on climate change. I don't even care. Anyone who isn't pushing nuclear energy, doesn't care about climate change and just wants us to be poor.

I've long said that anyone pushing environmentalism who doesn't push nuclear energy isn't serious, they're just a communist trying to destroy the West.

Want to learn something interesting? Learn why Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace, left that organization.

Oh, and while he's still against nuclear weapons, he now advocates nuclear energy.

I wonder how the climate change fearmongers explain these hunger or drought stones.
