‘Gigantic waste of time at taxpayers expense,’ scholar responds

New York University welcomed students back to campus for the spring semester with a “Climate Action Mixer” and “plant meditation” last week.

The university’s Office of Sustainability and Libraries hosted the event with “plant-based snacks” and a plant giveaway, according to the event page.

The event also included a 30-minute “plant meditation” where students “engage[d] their senses and practice[d] focused attention using plants, offering gratitude to the natural world.”

The Office of Sustainability encouraged students not only to “reflect and meditate with a succulent at hand” but also to “get to know other students who are also interested in activism and combating climate change.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
C'mon man! How many guys will attend just hoping to score...?

All that CO2 should be good for the plants, anyway.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
