He explains why increasing voter participation is essential to advancing the climate movement and shows how his team is mobilizing millions of new environmental…

Why the data center you dread might never even be built | Equity Podcast
The data center boom is running into serious real-world obstacles, from widespread local opposition and permitting delays to a scramble for electricity. Before those challenges even come into play, though, there’s a more basic problem: A lot of the projects being announced may never get built in the first place. With billions of dollars in…

We see it as a losing battle. In the next ten years the US is expected to go all electric, solar, wind etc. In the meantime China, India etc will be firing up a thousand new coal power plants negating any advance in climate engineering here. Plus we’ll be stuck with all the disadvantages.

I’m so happy you don’t vote. You would ruin the economy, and then climate would be even more challenged, and our ability to adapt to changes worsened.
Even of you did not ruin the economy, the politics would not have much success anyway. The big nations like China will ensure that.
“We all have to do our part” is purely an emotional argument, it doesn’t do anything else.
Go nuclear, keep the economy healthy, adapt to change. That’s the real solution.
Btw: the authoritarian vibes of this guy give me the chills. ????

Lol, you are never going to solve the climate problem pretending we live in some fantasy land of representative democracy. We live in a corporatocracy. Voting for someone who was chosen by a process funded by large donors is counterproductive, and telling people that if they only voted with this priority is more a projection of the speakers political ingorance that an actual plan. Lmao, you actually compared a government to a corporation. Both sides in our political duopoly are corperatist parties, so even if people were climate voters, they would not have anyone to represent that interest. Need an example, the permitting for drilling increased in permits issued ever year regardless of which party is in power. If you need an example of people voting for specific issues and nothing changing, abortion. Also, people did vote for a climate candidate once, and SCOTUS stole that election, but you just keep telling people to believe in the system and that you have an effective plan.

Climate activists don’t want to get involved in the difficult scientific and political details of solving climate change, so of course they don’t vote… It’s much easier to simply blame others and revel in their narcissistic activism.

Been in or following this movement for a long time.
Eventually you discover most of the science and studies are inaccurate or even faked. If we had the ability to closely examine this mans personal beliefs and behaviors we would discover none of this actions match what he says. He is an average intelligence professional bureaucrat. He wants more funding and power. Nothing more.
The real extensional threat to earth is the sun. It’s been ramping up activity for the last 40 years. Evidence suggests it’ll be a disaster for humanity by 2040/50.
Yet none of these cosplaying activists are talking about it or its actively being suppressed.

When the „Green” Party got to power in Germany they started axing nuclear power plants. They were replaced by coal plants. And whole towns were demolished to make place for strip mines, to mine low purity high sulfur coal for the coal plants.
And apparently these misguided efforts were continued up until 2023 when the last nuclear power plant in Germany shut down. They are slowly replacing coal with renewable, but that’s hardly optimal (and nowhere near to fast enough) – for minimal environmental impact you make all the electricity you can from nuclear, then you replace coal and gas with renewable and only then you can start gradually phasing out nuclear in favor of renewables.
Nuclear power plants kill fewer people per kilowatt than coal plants. It’s that simple. The waste products are way more manageable too.
I’m not saying every green politician is secretly a coal addict, it’s just one insane thing that happened in one purportedly reasonable country.

The Medeival Universal Church who threw Galileo and Copnicus in the dungeon, called themselves ‘The One True Science.” The Bolsheviks under Lenin seized power with the slogan “Communalism is the One True Science.’ Al Gore bought the © in 2006.

My colleagues had a good laugh at me when I told them I started my journey with $50k capital and how I accumulated over 6 figures within a span of 7 months. They never believed me until I pulled out my P&L.
I know that learning the ins and outs of the market isn’t for everyone, that’s why personally, Bruce Murdock oversees my investments.

Hey this is random, but I wanted to reach out to the followers of this page. I believe that Jesus Christ, God the Son, is coming back soon to rapture His Church so I wanted to reach out to as many as possible. Please remember that there is only God that leads to Heaven, the Trinity (God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ, and God the Holy Spirit) and it’s about a personal relationship through Jesus Christ (John 14:6 ESV). Blessings.

We did!! We voted in clean water and air laws and our leaders allowed corporations to flee the country and just pollute asia and south america instead, where we can’t vote for change. The current “climate movement” is astroturf by the oil industry that revolves around taking responsibility off of the powerful and placing it on the shoulders of regular working class individuals. Nobody wants to vote for that.
