Tell you what, if climate cultists can do this for 5 years in their own lives, I might consider that they believe the Earth is doomed rather than doing this for their authoritarian political beliefs (and not realizing the Bad Stuff will hit their own lives)
Boris Johnson faces calls to bring back WW2 meat rationing to save the planet
Donnachadh McCarthy is an Extinction Rebellion activist and author who proposed the idea after Tony Danker, Director of the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), urged the Government to mimic the postwar recovery programme of 1945. Mr McCarthy took it one step further and claimed we should reintroduce rationing, which was implemented to feed the country on limited food supplies. This method, he believes, would be the fairest way to combat climate change when compared to alleged government plans to introduce a carbon tax on the food industry.
Speaking to Cristo Foufas on talkRADIO, the Extinction Rebellion supporter said: “The CBI, not a mad radical organisation, this week said that we should treat the climate crisis and the Covid crisis and the economic crisis as we did the Second World War.
“And how did we do it fairly in the Second World War? We didn’t say we were going to put a tax on meat and the rich can afford loads of meat and the poor get none, what we did was rationing.
“We have to accept that meat has really high carbon emissions, so the fair way of bringing it down and bringing down consumption is for (someone) to say ‘this is as much meat as you’re allowed each year’ and there’s your ration.
It’s weird how this keeps coming down to Government controlling the lives of citizens, eh? It’s almost like this has nothing to do with science.
