Selling Global Warming to Eskimos
By Russell Cook
When John Kerry, President Biden's special envoy for climate, lamented that the Ukraine war situation would distract the public from the 'climate crisis' and then doubled down later on how 'climate change refugees will outnumber Ukrainian refugees, he seemed to have no awareness of how ludicrous his statement was. NPR and CNBC have both trumpeted the same theme about the war distracting the public from the "true crisis." Then there's Biden's Commerce Secretary, Gina Raimondo, who reacted the following way to Rep. Ben Cline's "distraction" that the proposed 2023 budget "doesn't really help families put food on the table or clothes on the back."
"...we believe climate change is an existential threat so, you know, children won't -- [shrugs, pauses]. Forget about clothes on their back. They're not going to be able to have a life if we don't deal with climate change."
Add Navy secretary Carlos Del Toro saying climate change -- not hostile foreign adversaries -- is an existential threat to America.
It's as though Kerry, Raimondo, and Del Toro are so assured of their own importance that they actually believe they can sell global warming to Eskimos.
