Isn't amazing how we have gone from a potential ice age to global"warming" in less than 25 years?  :facepalm:  [barf]

NY AG is suing the largest beef producer over climate change

Quote
New York Attorney General Letitia James is suing JBS USA, the world's largest producer of beef, over the company's emissions and for "greenwashing" by allegedly misleading the public about its environmental impact.

Quote
"As families continue to face the daily impacts of the climate crisis, they are willing to spend more of their hard-earned money on products from brands that are better for the environment," James said in a statement. "When companies falsely advertise their commitment to sustainability, they are misleading consumers and endangering our planet."

"JBS USA’s greenwashing exploits the pocketbooks of everyday Americans and the promise of a healthy planet for future generations," she added. "My office will always ensure that companies do not abuse the environment and the trust of hardworking consumers for profit."

She has already cost the state over a billion dollars in new business. At some point the governor might have to kick her to the curb.

The local judge will probably rule that the DA doesn't have to prove anything.

I wonder how much it would cost the beef producer to cut all ties with NY?

At some point, large corporations are going to have to decide that the loss of revenue in commie states like NY and CA is worth it in the long run. I can, off the top of my head, think of a half a dozen inconveniences that also increased the cost of something (lets start with cars) because these stupid states know that corps will fold for them, so they get to push their commie agendas on the rest of us.

It's time for corps to say "no", and while it might be detrimental to them in the short term, at some point, even the most progressive commie residents of states like CA will start complaining when they can't buy cars or other goods that are illegal in CA. Just like how San Francisco recently folded on "not doing business with conservative states". If you can't produce the goods and services yourself, your "punishments" against the producers will be short-lived.

How does that saying go? Oh yeah, stupid should hurt

Climate protestor start yelling at Sen Manchin, Manchin then gets up to confront the protester, and it appears not in a nice way, but then an aide or guard steps in between them and shows the protestor the door and the floor at the same time.

Getting in someone's face should have consequences. Scream at me all you want from distance, but if you do that and get within arm's length, that's what bloody nose lessons are for. We would have way, way less of these commie protestors and antifa and their threatening, up close screaming if people didn't have to be worried about being locked up for clocking them once they got in personal space range.

Watched it again and I just noticed Manchin gave the guard a helpful push  :rofl:

And oh

“We just called Joe Manchin a sick f**k. We humiliated him in front of a herd of Harvard elites. He squared up. We held firm. Barbaric murderer, hideous fiend, he torches humanity and laughs,” the group @ClimateDefiance said on X. I wouldn’t call that holding “firm.”

"We held firm"
Before or after you hit the floor?

He wasn't there as an expert.  He was there as some sort of celebrity.  Waste of time him speaking to Congress.

That said, IMO it is typical of environmentalists.  They want to do great things, but have no idea about any details of what it would require and don't want to know.

Yes, he wasn't a credentialed expert, but the dems called him in as an "expert" because he's a professional snowboarder and he had less snow to snowboard in last year than the year before.

I gathered that from the video.   

Maybe Kennedy should have quizzed him about the levels of snow on the slopes in 1992 or 1983.  He only knows the few years he has been doing it.

I think we all knew this was coming sooner or later.  These climate geeks want us all to live in caves, using stone knives and wearing bear skins.  Well, they'd be the only ones allowed to wear bear skins.  The rest of us would have run around nekkid.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

This is beautiful, and the "ban EVs for Mother Earth" movement needs to grow. The reasons are these:
1. It divides and confuses the bad guys
2. It reveals that they are regressive and anti-human
3. Anything that slows the stupid EV craze is good.

These are just childish, horrible, and evil people.

Also, good point in the comments. Why do they not do this at Mosques as well?

Seismologists have been warning us for decades that the east coast is overdue for a serious earthquake. It has nothing to do with "climate change."
