“Public health emergency”: Report shows fossil fuel impacts on every stage of life
The Global Climate and Health Alliance documents how fossil fuel extraction and use harms people throughout their lives, with the worst effects on marginalised groups

Fossil fuels affect all stages of human life, with their consequences starting even before the fuels are burned – releasing climate-heating gases and other pollutants – and extending long after, according to a new report by the Global Climate and Health Alliance.

The effects of fossil fuel extraction and use are also unevenly distributed, the report says, impacting marginalised groups including Indigenous peoples, racial minorities and low-income populations the most, and exacerbating other pre-existing health inequalities in those vulnerable communities.

Published this Tuesday, the flagship report compiles more than 600 scientific citations, case studies from around the world, and testimonials from affected communities and health professionals in every region, from oil spills in Nigeria to coal pollution in India and gas extraction in the United States.

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

Now do a study on every stage of life without fossil fuels...

Astoundingly stupid.

Fine. No gasoline for you. Power your hospital with wind and solar, and your ambulance (especially the medivac chopper) too.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

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.

Also no plastics, many medicines, lubricants, cleaners……
I want these morons to list how they are going to replace all the things they use that come from ‘fossil fuels’.

When does the ban on private jets start?  It is a public health emergency.

It would be better for the environment if John F'ing Kerry rode his bike or windsurfed to the next Global Climate Change jamboree.

I had almost forgotten about Lurchenstein, he’s been keeping a low profile for some time now, I guess that means he will be making some absurd and emotional statements soon.
