How would NYC run without fossil fuels? Police cars, ambulances, garbage trucks (when they aren’t on strike), inspector vehicles, buses, meter maids, the mayors limo.

It’s the same argument as when the federal law was passed in 2007: it’s not an actual ban, but, by putting in place such strong requirements, the law effectively banned incandescent light bulbs.

Do you know what would be great? If fossil fuels companies threatened to pull out of areas run by climate change (scam) fanatics.

Interestingly, Trump doesn’t care. Have you ever heard him complain about cities, states, U.S. companies, or citizens practicing Hotcoldwetdry measures within their own “lives”? He only really cares that the U.S. government not burden its citizens with Hotcoldwetdry legislation, taxes/fees, and regulations (UK Guardian)Â Since taking office, Donald Trump has pulled the United States out of […]

But, good news, it’s OK if you take a fossil fueled flight that kills future humans if you’re going to a climate conference (NoTricksZone) At Swiss SRF public broadcasting, Yves Bossart recently interviewed philosopher and ethicist Dominic Roser of the Institute for Ethics and Human Rights of the University of Fribourg. Roser is also the […]
