A current spike in environmental concern is barely higher than previous peaks

spending programme proposed by some Democrats, has been championed by left-leaning commentators and pilloried by conservatives. Despite a spate of wildfires and hurricanes, President Donald Trump pointed to January’s cold snap in the Midwest as evidence that warnings about climate change are overblown. Economiststhat global warming could knock 5% off America’s GDP by 2100, with particularly drastic effects in rural states that mostly supported Mr Trump.

published last week by Gallup found that 44% of the country worries “a great deal” about climate change, just below the record of 45% in 2017. Environmentalists might hope that Americans are gradually accepting the overwhelming scientific evidence regarding man-made global warming.

Yea, basic, control structure “news” outlet, suggests re-education camps nazi youth style

You mean the intellectual concentration camps that are modern Universities?

Are you kidding me? They have been indoctrinating kids with this climate nonsense like for 60 years. I remember even as a kid I was scared because they put this crap even in the cartoons.

Maybe they've seen through the fake news.

Oh we believe. When you propose a fix just be sure you include how long your proposed action would delay the exact same outcome.

Cute. Betsy's in charge.

They could also stop with the lying and intimidation. That would help. They could admit that the 'hockey stick' is a disgraceful and pathetic fraud.

alllibertynews Maybe they’ve educated themselves about suncycles

Right out of Stalin’s Communist Plan, start by brainwashing the youth.

Sorry, you’re going to have to tell your owners to find another way to scam trillions of dollars and godlike control of the global economy. 🙄

Here’s a crazy idea: stay the f OUT of the classroom. Stop trying to indoctrinate kids with your ideas, after failing to convince adults.

Now watch this:

Because they've LIED. And have been pushing apocalyptic ice ages & extinction level global warming for decades. Based off of 150 years of data on a planet that is BILLIONS of years old.

There's no increased melting of polar ice caps ,the apocalyptic predictions of the earth being submerged by environmental extremists have never occurred despite being made after every 3yrs in fact the polar icecaps have increased covering 300-400 million sqr. miles since 2012.

Left and its propagandists in the evil liberal media have been selling environmental Armageddon for decades. Not one single thing ever came true When I was a kid, it was an ice age and no ozone layer They said Peak Oil was 10 years ago Overpopulation Famine All lies

Consistency in short supply across the pond just now...
