Alarmists! They should find positive ways to spread the climate change message instead of always being so negative.

The Chinese are very thorough with their hoaxes, even drying up their own rivers to try and trick America into using renewable energy.

 

[BarcaDeac]

and yet we're having record floods in the US. so which is it, alarmists? no water or too much water?

 

[WakeForestRanger]

That’s pretty clever and is something I’ve never thought of before.

And California has been having rolling blackouts for two decades.

I've never had a blackout. It is gonna be 100 degrees for the next week though. Probably best to start tackling that climate change.

 

[WFFaithful]

Too late

 

[Tobacco Road]

Californians aren't told not to charge their electric vehicles. That is so dumb. We are encouraged to charge during off-peak hours which we are already incentivized to do.

While this map is provocative, some say it just means China manufacturers the Wests' stuff.

This vox article tries to speak to that and pollution internal to China. Basically a lot of sacrifice dodging and NIMBY.

How rich countries "outsource" their CO2 emissions to poorer ones
