World leaders are welcome to practice what they preach in their own lives
Kerry warns world will blow through critical climate change threshold unless global leaders step up
US Climate Envoy John Kerry warned Wednesday that world leaders will blow through a critical climate-change threshold unless they dramatically accelerate the transition to clean energy.
“Let me be absolutely clear: we’re heading to well over 2 degrees right now — 2.7, or something like that,” Kerry said, speaking at Foreign Policy magazine’s Climate Summit.
Kerry added that if the commitments made at COP26 in Glasgow are implemented over the next eight or nine years, “the International Energy Agency tells us we would be at 1.8 degrees of warming by 2050, and that’s a huge step forward.” (big snip to end)
Kerry said that the private sector needs signals and investments from the government to speed the energy transition.
“They need signals from the government — a tax credit, an incentive,” Kerry said. “They need to know the demand is real and it’s going to be implemented. This is an exciting, transformational moment where we’re really at the brink of a new industrial revolution.”
By signals, he means Government implementing all sorts of restrictions and taxes on companies and citizens while the big wigs run around the world on private jets, drive around in big gas guzzling limos, and generally live the good life they’ll deny to the peons.
From the article:
Did the signatories implement the commitments made in Kyoto? How many nations met the goals set in Paris? What evidence is there that these conferences are anything other than government-paid vacations for powerful men and their mistresses?
Just like those IT guys who don’t really know how to code jumping from job to job so they are never there to actually deliver. Everyone goes to the conferences to promise future progress. No one delivers any actual progress. No one but the USA. Our water and air are cleaner than at any time in the past 100 years.
Kerry volunteered for the US Navy he could have been deferred and gone to law school
He volunteered for Swift boat and PBR duty
9 of the 10 men who served under him on boats campaigned for him in the election.
So only one guy refused to be bribed? It’s nice to know on the left if you volunteer for duty you needn’t have any morals, empathy, regards or one iota of self awareness regarding your political principles. He’s a liar. An anti American agitator who actively worked against America in the Vietnam hearings. And none of the men who actually served with him supported him. That’s a disinformation myth fabricated by the Kerry campaign and the DNC to overcompensate for his anti war activities including calling our troops “Gen-gis Khan” and throwing away his “medals”. You believe every bullshit story the publicists for these creeps promotes. But that’s why they have publicists, for cretins like you.
FJB and Kerry. BTW, where’s he parking his million $$ yacht these days to avoid his own taxes? Liars, criminals, traitors, groomers, perverts and tax evaders. That’s the neodemocrat party. Oh, and money launderers.
Lying Grifter Brandon typed: And none of the men who actually served with him (Kerry) supported him.
That’s an outright lie. All but one of his boatmates supported him, and the one who did not (Stephen Gardner) was not on the Swift Boats (PCF-44 and PCF-94) during the incidents that led to Kerry’s medals. Gardner was the only boatmate to join the proven liars, The Swiftboaters. In fact, the term “swiftboating” means “an unfair or untrue political attack”. The Swift Boat conspiracy tale was memorialized by the conspiracist Jerome Corsi (InfoWars, World Net Daily etc). Corsi did not serve in Vietnam.
You’re a lying grifter, Brandon.
Sure I am QdOwd. We all read the same propaganda and you chose to believe the commies and I chose to believe the patriots. It’s that simple. You just don’t like to hear it out loud.
You still do it. You always choose the anti or un American side in any argument. You always go commie. Right now you are in a twist because Elon bought Twitter and you think free speech is terrible.
As you watch your leftist dream crumble this November (unless FJB pulls off the treason he’s trying to do) we will enjoy your rage. Feel the RAGE QdOwd. Feel IT!
FJBFJBFJBFJB I guess you think I shouldn’t be able to say that on line!
John Kerry lied about his Vietnam experience and the attacked veterans in his testimony to the Senate.
Lie about one thing, lie about anther.
Dear James,
You’re misinformed. The Swift Boat Veterans for Truth lied. Jerome Corsi lied. Why did they lie? Three reasons. Conservatives always lie. Conservatives wanted Bush to win the election. Conservatives didn’t like Kerry telling the truth about Vietnam – but who better than a veteran who lived it to criticize the Vietnam war.
It was a smear orchestrated by the American right and the GOP.
James: You’re better than this.
Dear Elwood:
Kerry lied to the Senate.
Kerry lied about being in Cambodia.
In fact, Kerry is a lying POS that only people like you could admire.
Some might suggest that ol’ John should really set the example and open a window on that jet while cruisin’ along at 30,000 feet.
Kerry was a piece if shit in Nam and still is a total turd. He has never told the truth that I am aware and did not have the respect of his fellow navy men.
Solid argument!
Thanks, I obviously agree.
