Always demanding that other people do stuff that puts the government dominance on other people
A climate activist group’s 8 asks for Harris
A climate activist group is urging Vice President Kamala Harris to lean into a “bold climate candidacy” as she sprints toward the November presidential election.
Climate Defiance, an organization that made waves by interrupting speeches and events to prod Biden administration officials on climate, laid out eight requests for Harris on Friday as the likely nominee looks to rally young people and climate-minded voters behind her.
“We’re hoping that Kamala Harris will really commit to a strong climate platform that recognizes the stakes at the moment that we’re in,” said Evan Drukker-Schardl, an organizer with Climate Defiance.

Biden passed the torch. Kamala Harris has an opportunity to usher in an era of equity and sustainability. ????????
We’re calling on Kamala Harris @KamalaHQ to be a climate candidate.

Here are the 8 asks (which are really demands)
- Ask #1 No new oil & gas infrastructure projects. Full stop.
- Ask #2 End federal fossil fuel subsidies and stop financing fossil fuel projects abroad. (have they asked whether Americans actually want 1 and 2? And 4? Or, does that even matter to their little Fascist minds?)
- Ask #3 Rapidly expand investments in renewable energy and R&D into new technologies that can accelerate the transition. (I’m not against investing in R&D)
- Ask #4 End all new leases of oil & gas drilling on federal lands and waters.
- Ask #5 Provide a living wage, training, and career growth opportunities to American workers transitioning from the fossil fuel industry to green energy jobs. (Smacks of Socialism and government controlling the economy)
- Ask #6 Compensating victims of environmental racism and prosecuting the perpetrators. (in other words, jail people for Green Wrongthing)
- Ask #7 Increase federal funding for infrastructure and public housing that can withstand extreme weather events. (more government)
- Ask #8 Provide clean, cheap, and accessible energy and water to Native reservations. (have they asked the Indians if they want this? Or, are they just White Knighting, since most of these wackos in Climate Defiance tend to be white, and middle class to rich?)
The funny part is that none of these folks are actually saying what they have done in their own lives, especially since most of their clothes, shoes, signs, phones, glasses, etc, are made with petroleum.
One immediate change that can be made is stopping the genocide and ecocide against the Palestinian people. Harris can support an arms embargo and press Israel to end its assault on Gaza- threatening to make the land, water, and air of Gaza unlivable for generations. She must.
It wouldn’t be an unhinged Progressive group without Jew hatred and support of Hamas.
Sounds like Biden should make her the Climate CZAR.
“Mumbles” Trump won’t have to worry about climate!!
And neither due we, citizens of the earth..
If she does promise to take climate seriously, she will likely get all those votes that she was going to get anyway: Women with cats.
Harris should be appointed fellatio czar. Her slave driving ancestors would be proud.
The Abortionist is curiously obsessed with dick-sucking. And how much you bet his Confederate family owned slaves and fought America to save “their way of life”!?!
Vice President Harris’ father was Jamaican-American, her mother, Indian-American.
If our government all along had NOT STOLEN our money to subsidize the fossil fuel industry including with free military “aid” abroad, and had kept its nose out of ALL energy industries, who knows what kind of truly sustainable alternatives we might have available to us. Not agreeing with their entire list, but it is NOT government’s job to pick winners and losers…PERIOD.
