Greta Thunberg: U.S. Isn’t Serious About Climate Unless It Bans Fossil Fuel Subsidies

Joshua Caplan 22 Apr 2021

Teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg testified Thursday before a House of Representatives panel that President Joe Biden’s infrastructure bill should ban fossil fuel subsidies if he wants to prove his seriousness about combating global warming.

A transcript is as follows:

Quote

    REP. RO KHANNA: Could you speak a little bit from an international perspective about what message we would be sending in Congress if we passed a infrastructure bill and did not have the elimination of fossil fuels subsidies in there after we ran on that and was in the president’s plan, and let’s say we did not have all that. What message would that send to other countries?

    GRETA THUNBERG: I guess it would send a message that you’re not really taking it serious, you are talking very much but not really taking action. I know that sounds very oversimplified, but that’s what it all comes down to. We are all talking about these distant targets about how we are going to act on our emissions and so on, but we can talk as much as we want but if we don’t take real, bold action right now by reducing the emissions at the source, it doesn’t really mean anything — at least that’s what I, as a young person talking from an international perspective, that’s the signal you will be sending out.

I would give her an ounce of credibility if she spent most of her time in China and India, the two leading polluters in the world.  But she is here.  UGGGH!

Of course she is here, because we have more nuts per square mile than any other nation.  Next, with majorities in both houses, we will be hearing about Cap and Trade legislation.  Al Gore is still alive and drooling to see the day!  Obama too!  And the Big Guy for TEN PERCENT!!!

I TELL YOU, OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS MANY MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WILL BE SIDELINED AND UNEMPLOYED!!!

One more thought, had Trump kept his promise to end the H1-b Visa Program versus increasing it just months into his presidency, we would not be having conversations about Biden!  That was his only DAY ONE PROMISE I am aware of!!!!!!!!!
