Detroit Restaurants Launch Initiative To Nag Customers About Climate Doom

Seriously, “Why can’t I just eat my waffle?”

Detroit restaurants launch initiative to fight climate change

Local leaders and businesses in Detroit are stepping up to encourage the entire city to combat climate change.

Organizers and participants of Eat for Impact aim to reduce the city’s environmental impact by increasing access to plant-based foods. For the month of September, seven Detroit restaurants are serving meals that promote a healthier, more sustainable food system, according to a news release.

So, Eat For Impact seems to be a bunch of climate nags from all over the country (and even from Nigeria) who nag restaurants to do this kind of stuff. What I’m not seeing anywhere on their website is if any of the nags actually own the restaurants. Do they have to make these changes at their own business? Or just nag others to do it?

The specials include:

Yum Village

Roots Village Meal: Curry with Your choice of Rice, Ginger Curry Chickpeas, And Greens.
Just Plants Village Meal: Ginger Curry Chickpeas, Sweet & Spicy Plantains, and Sweet Potato Sunflower Butter Stew

IVY Kitchen + Cocktails

Crispy Cabbage: Wok-seared cabbage tossed with chili oil, walnuts, and a touch of umami for the perfect balance of flavor and crunch.
Jerk Roasted Cauliflower Steak: Charred cauliflower steak marinated in house-made jerk seasoning, served with sweet potato salad and finished with a vibrant mango-chile glaze.
Golden Hour (Mocktail): Passionfruit, turmeric, ginger, basil

It’s cute and all, but, these two eateries, like the others, already offer a bunch of vegan and vegetarian meals, so, it’s not a stretch. But, they probably made the climate nags happy.

In the past, Planted Society has worked with more than 350 restaurants and has launched 16 different Eat for Impact initiatives. On average, each initiative has helped save an impressive 70,000 pounds of greenhouse gases and 1 million gallons of water, highlighting the substantial environmental impacts of plant-based choices. Further, partner restaurants report an impressive increase in sales during the campaign month; in the last Eat for Impact initiative, over $76,000 in sales was generated from plant-based specials, directly benefiting the local economy. Past initiatives have reached an average of 600,000 individuals, according to the press release.

Of course, then there’s the whole thing about using fossil fueled vehicles to bring in the products and people driving there in fossil fueled vehicles. Or having it delivered via fossil fueled vehicles.

Trump Promises More Crackdown On Illegal Aliens After Dallas Machete Murder

I’m OK with more crackdown

Time for being soft on illegal immigrants over: Trump slams Biden’s immigration policy for Indian-origin motel manager’s murder in Dallas

The United States President Donald Trump has decried immigration policy forged under his predecessor, Joe Biden, in the wake of the brutal beheading of an Indian-origin motel manager in Dallas, allegedly by an undocumented Cuban immigrant with a prio…

Posting on Truth, his social media platform, Trump called the attacker an “Illegal Alien” who should have been deported, blaming what he called lenient policies of Biden for it.

“I am aware of the terrible reports regarding the murder of Chandra Nagamallaiah, a well-respected person in Dallas, Texas, who was brutally beheaded, in front of his wife and son, by an illegal alien from Cuba who should have never been in our count…

He said the criminal, who is in custody, “will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law. He will be charged with murder in the first degree.” The US president added that the accused in the case was previously arrested for “terrible crimes”, in…

The US president added that the accused in the case was previously arrested for “terrible crimes”, including child sex abuse, grand theft auto, and false imprisonment, but was released back into the homeland under “incompetent” former president Biden because Cuba did not want “such an evil person in their country.”

37-year-old Yordanis Cobos-Martinez murdered an Indian man on September 10th at the motel with a machete in a brutal fashion. He’s previously been charged with crimes and detained, but, ICE let him go in early January 2025 because Cuba refused to take him. You know, why don’t we look to an island off the coast of Alaska or somewhere that has no population and just drop all these illegals from countries that refuse to take them back. Drop them off with a 7 day survival backpack and a decent tent and sleeping bag and wash our hands of them? Then interdict the island in case someone tries to escape.

Meanwhile

ICE seeks to deport DACA recipient after arrest at El Paso airport

In early August, Catalina “Xochitl” Santiago had arrived at the local airport to catch a flight to Austin. But after passing through the security checkpoint, two Border Patrol agents approached Santiago, a 28-year-old immigrant from Mexico, asked for her identification and questioned how she obtained a work authorization card.

Santiago, who came to the U.S. at 8 and is legally in the U.S. through the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, insisted on having a lawyer present, according to a cell phone video she recorded that was later publicly released. (snip)

Since that Aug. 3 airport confrontation, Santiago has been held in a detention center as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement works to deport her. Since her arrest, there have been demonstrations in Phoenix, El Paso, Chicago and Boston — places where she has worked with immigrant rights organizations — demanding that ICE release her.

An immigration judge ruled last week that Santiago can’t be deported because she has permission to live in the U.S. through DACA, an Obama administration program that has given many undocumented immigrants who came to the U.S. as children work permits and temporary protection from deportation.

Yeah yeah yeah. First off, even Obama stated that creating DACA via Executive Order was unconstitutional. Second, even if it was legal there are terms to it

Still, U.S. Department of Homeland Security press secretary Tricia McLaughlin said people who “claim to be recipients of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals are not automatically protected from deportations.” She also described Santiago as a “criminal illegal alien” who was arrested in Arizona on suspicion of trespassing, possession of narcotics and drug paraphernalia in 2020. In the same statement, McLaughlin encouraged DACA recipients to self-deport.

She broke the terms of DACA with those crimes. One would think it would be a good idea to not break the law, which would end their DACA status. One would also think it would be a good idea to keep a low profile when one is an illegal alien given a free pass, not go all super-activist.

Judges have, in fact, deemed DACA unconstitutional, so, the judge is wrong. Might this end up at the Supreme Court, where they would most likely rule that DACA in full is unconstitutional and kill the whole program? Another good reason for DACA recipients to keep a low profile, lest they cause all to lose DACA status.

Doom Today: Australia Could See 450% Increase In Climate (scam) Deaths

Way in the future, of course, but, this can be fixed if Aussies give up their own use of fossil fuels (excluding the Elites) and give all their freedom to government

Millions of Australians at risk from rising sea levels and heat deaths could soar, landmark climate report warns

The number of heat-related deaths in Sydney could surge by almost 450% if global heating surpasses 3C, according to a landmark report that finds no Australian community would be immune from the “cascading, compounding and concurrent” risks of a worsening climate.

The report also lays bare the heightened risk from rising sea levels on Australia’s populous coastal communities, including flooding, erosion and inundation.

It found that by 2050, 1.5 million coastal residents would be at risk, rising to more than 3 million by 2090.

The federal government on Monday released the long-awaited national climate risk assessment, providing the most detailed picture of the severe and far-reaching social and economic impact of the climate crisis for Australia.

Except, most tide gauges in Australia barely show any sea level rise. Sydney shows a whopping 0.8mm per year, which is 0.26 feet in 100 years. The gauge goes back to 1886.

Under a 3C scenario, the number of heat-related deaths in Sydney increases by 444% and by 423% in Darwin.

The assessment also modelled the economic impact, estimating the direct cost of floods, bushfires, storms and cyclones across the states and territories could reach $40bn a year in 2050 – even under a 1.5C scenario.

But the economic damage would extend beyond the disasters themselves.

For example, losses in property value could increase to $611bn by 2050, rising to $770bn by 2090. In another finding, the number days lost of work due to heatwaves could reach 2.7m across the workforce under the 3C scenario.

Keep the doomsaying going, guys. That will totally help your cult.

Two “Utah Men” Arrested For Trying To Blow Up Bomb Near Where Charlie Kirk Was Murdered

Just your average Utah men, you know

Magna man arrested for threat of terrorism after explosive device found underneath news media vehicle

A Magna man has been arrested on multiple charges related to weapons of mass destruction and the threat of terrorism after a federal investigation led to the evacuation of multiple homes in the area on Friday. The investigation followed the discovery of an explosive located underneath a news media vehicle in Salt Lake City.

Adeeb Nasir, 58, was arrested in Salt Lake County on Sunday on two counts of weapon of mass destruction – manufacture/possess/sell/use, a first-degree felony; attempted aggravated arson, a first-degree felony; four counts of explosive/chemical/incendiary – possessing parts, second and third-degree felonies; and two counts of threat of terrorism – use of weapon/hoax mass destruction, a second-degree felony.

On Sept. 12, members of the Salt Lake City Police Bomb Squad and Unified Fire Authority Arson/Bomb Squad responded to a suspicious device located in Salt Lake City. The device — an incendiary device — had reportedly been placed underneath a news media vehicle parked next to an occupied building.

The device had reportedly been lit but failed to function as designed, police said. Authorities confirmed that it was determined the incendiary device was real.

That’s a weird Mormon name. The other is Adil Justice Ahme Nasir, 31

Both suspects, including Adeeb Nasir, were found at the residence and arrested. Squad members cleared the home and found two hoax weapons of mass destruction inside, along with two firearms and illegal narcotics.

When questioned about the devices, both suspects reportedly told police that they were real. As a result, all law enforcement personnel executing the search warrant evacuated the residence and began proper procedure to dispose of the devices. Neighboring homes were also evacuated.

“The initial FBI search warrant authorized the seizure of evidence specifically related to the incendiary devices,” arrest documents state. “However, during the course of executing that warrant, law enforcement personnel observed additional contraband and evidence of crimes outside the scope of the original warrant, to include firearms and firearm-related items, explosives and explosive-related components, illegal narcotics and associated paraphernalia, as well as electronic devices reasonably believed to contain evidence of the above-described crimes.”

Hmm

Due to use of illegal drugs, Adeeb is a restricted person with a protective order against him that prevents him from possessing firearms. The second suspect, identified as “Adil,” is also a restricted person due to illegal narcotic use.

What’s the over/under that they are either illegal aliens/fake asylum seekers or refugees let in? I mean, it’s not like Utah is a hotbed of Islamic people.

Media Upset That Ghouls Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s Assassination Being Fired

Yeah, remember this?

Harvard University Cancels Kyle Kashuv
A social media mob successfully persuades Harvard to rescind the admission of a conservative Parkland survivor.

Harvard University has rescinded its offer of admission to Kyle Kashuv, a Parkland survivor and conservative teen activist due to racist comments he made several years ago in group chats with other Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School students.

Yeah, the left went after him because of his Wrongthink. And, there are some other examples, but, not a lot, and you really do not get the cancelling over death threats from the Right, because there just aren’t that many. Cancel culture has run rampant on the Left, even against their own, and now they’re getting a taste of it from the right

People are getting fired for allegedly celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder. It looks like a coordinated effort

Dozens of social media posts and messages about the murder of Charlie Kirk, including some that celebrated his death, are being spotlighted by conservative activists, Republican elected officials and a doxxing website as part of an online campaign to punish the posters behind the messages.

Prominent far-right influencer Laura Loomer, a US senator, and a site called “Expose Charlie’s Murderers” have all drawn attention to people who have posted messages about Kirk’s Wednesday assassination.

The campaigns show how social media posts or personal messages — even by accounts with few followers or from people who are not public figures — could easily be surfaced and publicized, and people’s personal information can be spread across the internet at a time when doxxing is easier than ever.

The Charlie’s Murderers site, whose domain was registered anonymously and which says it is not a doxxing site, claims it has “received nearly 30,000 submissions,” according to a message on the site’s front page on midday Saturday. Currently, there are a few dozen submissions published on the site. “This website will soon be converted into a searchable database of all 30,000 submissions, filterable by general location and job industry. This is a permanent and continuously-updating archive of Radical activists calling for violence.”

I mean, Loomer is a nutball, but, these posts are not “alleged”: they’re real.

Heartache: EPA To End Rule Requiring Companies To Report Their CO2 Emissions

Good. It’s a waste of time and money. The EPA should pass a rule requiring all elected Warmists to report their own CO2 output

EPA to scrap greenhouse gas reporting for companies, including many in San Diego region

The federal Environmental Protection Agency has proposed ending a rule that requires businesses to report greenhouse gas emissions.

Thousands of oil refineries, coal and natural gas burning power plants, landfills and other facilities would no longer have to report how much they pollute if the agency moves forward with the change. In San Diego and Imperial counties, more than two dozen companies would no longer be subject to the reporting requirement.

“The (program) is nothing more than bureaucratic red tape that does nothing to improve air quality,” EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said in a press release. (snip)

The agency said the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, which has been active since 2010, has been “burdensome” to businesses. The program requires large emission sources, those that produce over 25,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide a year, to report their emissions yearly. The database accounts for 50% of emissions in the U.S. according to the EPA website.

Zeldin said ending the rule would save businesses $2.4 billion dollars in regulatory costs.

The agency also said it would postpone data collection for petroleum and natural gas production until 2034, pushing back a requirement under President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act.

This is a good idea. The EPA should, instead, spend time on actual air pollutants like the Environmental Protection Act says, not the mythical carbon pollution. Hassle companies that actually pollute the air.

If All You See…

…are trees dying from horrible summer heatsnow, you might just be a Warmist

The blog of the day is Green Jihad, with a post on the Charlie Kirk assassin potentially being a Zizian cult member.

Are things running slightly better? I’ve turned off a bunch of unnecessary plugins, got ridden of a few. The plugin I used for creating folders for internal photos has been deactivate and replaced with Filebird, since every time I tried to use it I would get “connection lost”. I’m still getting connection losts” while writing posts, but, they tend to be quick. I haven’t gotten an offline email in a few days. And the number of bots has dramatically gone done, only getting about 5-10 emails per hour, not seeing the server go above 1GB (2 is the limit, there were times it was spiking to 6). Weirdly, when I see these little connection losts here I am not seeing it at my development site.

If you leave a comment and get a 503, the server still seems to be saving your comment. Another weird thing is that nothing will autopost. Whatever I write and set I still have to go back in and hit update to post. But, I’ll keep trying.
