I wonder if the jackass who sent me the meme here is “for real,” because I can’t imagine that anyone is so ignorant that he doesn’t know that:
1) Displacing fossil fuels is a huge boon to the environment, especially getting rid of coal in the grid mix, and
2) As the beef industry continues to expand, it destroys our rain forests.
In 2001, I remembered being deeply disappointed that G.W. Bush had become our 43rd U.S president, on the basis that he was clearly unintelligent, and that the Republicans were already climate deniers.
That said, Bush was not criminally insane, and about half of all American voters would not support a psychotic in the White House.
Now, the vast majority of U.S. voters would be thrilled to trade out Donald Trump for the good old days of being led by a sane imbecile.
I can’t understand how a young history/poli-sci major who has become a social media “influencer” has superior credibility to tens of thousands of climate scientists, many of whom I know personally, who have been studying this subject since the 1970s.
Can someone help me here?
At first, I thought the meme at left was a joke, but upon further reflection, I realized that it was not.
