You remember the movie “Fair Game”, right? No? Well, I guess it was kinda hard to miss, since it was released November 5th, and immediately tanked.

I probably should have forwarded this one over to Cassy Fiano and the awesome duo of Lori Ziganto and Jenn Q.

Why, yes, climate alarmists, composed primarily of left leaning people, do hate the human race, especially for what the say humanity is doing to Mother Earth.
