Y'all got a news source from an agency that is not openly biased (not opinion - by their own admission) reporting on this

Climate Change is killing Americans. Here's just one example. Water temperatures are higher, and measurably so. Higher water temperatures leads to more frequent Tropical disturbances and greater intensities and rainfall as well. That's just one area. If you provide a source that isn't OAN or Breitbart (or equally and obviously biased against Democrats) I'll take a look at it.

BTW, if you're looking for bats*it crazy AND off the reservation AND not a team player, you probably want to promote Hawai'i Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (D - but not really). Not only is she out there....she'll damage the Democrats just because that's how she rolls. Ocasio-Cortez will play ball most likely.

My guess is Alexandra is more of a team player. You're going to have a hard time convincing anyone but the 'never Democrats' that Cory Booker, Kirstin Gillebrand, Joe Biden, etc are really Ocasio-Cortez anymore than people were convinced by the attempt to turn Barack Obama in 2008 into the second incarnation of Jesse Jackson. But I suppose you're free to try.

Someone attacked Carbon Taxes. Basically, that was the genesis of a CONSERVATIVE idea, which was the Emission Credit marketplace. Basically, it allows society to set an acceptable level of pollution and provide incentives and penalties for those who comply/don't comply with those goals.

Well, Dayum!

Color me shocked. Climate change done killed a lot of things.

Like Dinosaurs and woolly mammoths. I hear the Sabre-tooth tiger is still lobbying to get his reparation cheque. I guess our Neanderthals will also get a cut out of this?!? El Oh El.
