Climate change is not an isolated crisis — it is a symptom of our economic system. That system has jeopardized the future of life on this planet. (Snip) It is important that we understand climate change as a byproduct of an economic system based on extraction, exploitation, accumulation through dispossession — and racism. It threatens everyone’s physical health, mental health, air, quality, water access, food systems and shelter and the very land that holds our communities. But it affects some of us much more than others.Extreme weather events like the most recent arctic freeze that struck Texas, Arizona, Oklahoma, Tennessee

Yo, Collete - - I can really dig where your coming from. It's time to totally reject white male culture.
So - - from now on - - don't use a computer - - because it's a white male invention. And also - - don't ride in a car or a bus or on a train or in a plane - - they're also the result of white male extrapolation. And don't use indoor plumbing, or watch a television, or movies, or listen to a radio, or to recorded music - - that's all white male cultural extrapolation. And don't use a washing machine, drying machine, microwave, dishwasher, central eating, or air conditioning - - those are big-time white male exploitations. And don't wear clothes made on automatic looms - - or read anything which comes off a printing press - - very bad white male stuff. And don't take aspirin, or vaccines, or use disinfectants, or take X-rays, CAT scans, sonograms, or mammograms - - also very bad white male stuff.
Stone Age hunter-gathering - - that's the ticket! That'll show how you truly reject white male culture! I'll meet you down by the creek - - we can haul water up the hill together.

This woman is deranged. Without the hard work and creativity of tens of thousands she would be living in a cave, subsisting on grass and twigs, and scribbling on the cave wall.

Another episode of fake news. I am waiting to wake up and find out the sun, moon and stars are racist, along with trees and birds. The left and globalists are only interested in destroying our country and economy so they can control all aspects of our lives while enriching themselves. Of course, they are exempt from the rules and horrible outcomes they hoist upon everyone else. But they 'cared'. They care about 'climate' about as much as they care about the middle class, minorities or the unborn. All of their faux causes /buzz words are just a means to achieve their desired evil outcome.

Well I guess Noah was the biggest failure of all. Despite the lack of horrendous cars and other fossil fuel combustion, he could do nothing about the "climate change" he experienced.

It doesn't threaten me. Although I do wish it was about 10 degrees warmer today.

At what point do these be-clowned grifters jump the shark?
The propaganda strategy has been relentless and apparently successful.
I know people who have 100% bought into global warming as an undefined term- like medical doctors once used the term “cardinal humors.”
When do these seemingly sane people reject these moronic ideas and reject the con men promoters of these ideas?

How about a national black movement to graduate high school, get a job and take care of their neighborhoods and families instead of burning or stealing everything in sight. Wouldn't that be a breath of fresh air?

Discriminatory real estate and lending practices consistently segregate Black people into substandard homes.
Do you mean Democrat Policies like the CRA instituted under Carter and drought to fruition under Clinton the policy caused the Housing Bubble to collapse?

If they REALLY want to stop Climate Change, they should BAN Diesel-powered farm machines, and go back to Picking Cotton by HAND!
....with the Side Benefit of providing Jobs to a segment of the population who appear to be unsuited to any other, more intellectually-challenging work.

Basically every gripe and complaint can be tied to 'climate change'. And we need to throw out capitalism to fix everything.
