Climate Change isn't really about the climate.accelafine wrote: ↑Thu May 30, 2024 11:13 pm What IS woke when it comes to climate change is when famous people preach about it, telling everyone ELSE to stay at home or limit air travel-- all while jetting around the world continuously in private jets and driving huge gas-guzzling cars and living in enormous mansions that have air-conditioning roaring away all day every day. It's people who are 'woke'-- not causes. Woke is hypocrisy and virtue-signalling. A 'cause' can't be a hypocrite.

Climate Hysterics Keep Saying The Quiet Part Out Loud

But the more important point today is that the climatistas continue to admit that their reasons for “fighting global warming” are unrelated to trying to control Earth’s temperature. In review, here are a few of the more prominent inadvertent admissions:
Christiana Figueres, one-time executive secretary of United Nations’ Framework Convention on Climate Change, admitted that the climate activists’ agenda is not to protect the environment but to break capitalism. The task ahead, she said in 2015, is “to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the Industrial Revolution.”
The late Rajenda Pachauri* was the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Chairman until 2015. He openly conceded “the protection of planet Earth, the survival of all species and sustainability of our ecosystems” was “more than a mission” to him. It was his “religion” and “dharma.”
Activist and influential author Naomi Klein once wondered if the fearmongering was “the best chance we’re ever going to get to build a better world?” The world must “change, or be changed,” she says, because an “economic system” — our free and open markets — has caused environmental “wreckage.”
Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said more than a “few years” ago, almost five, in fact, that Miami will not exist “in a few years” due to the effects of global warming. She of course had a plan, not to deal with the changes, but to pass Democratic Party policies. “The interesting thing about the Green New Deal is it wasn’t originally a climate thing at all,” former Ocasio-Cortez chief of staff Saikat Chakrabarti said, according to the Washington Post Magazine. “Do you guys think of it as a climate thing?” Chakrabarti asked an aide to Washington Gov. Jay Inslee while the pair met at a Washington, D.C. coffee shop in May. “Because we really think of it as a how-do-you-change-the-entire-economy thing.”
