Bernie, AOC to declare climate emergency

WASHINGTON (AP) — Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are teaming up on a measure that would designate climate change as an emergency, and they have won early support from one of Sanders’ fellow Democratic presidential candidates. The legislation to be introduced Tuesday in the House is designed to highlight Democrats’ focus on global warming and push back on President Donald Trump, who has declared a national emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border.
quote:
Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal, a framework for a “10-year national mobilization” to dramatically slash U.S. carbon emissions, already has earned the backing of most leading Democratic presidential candidates. Her partnership with Sanders on the climate emergency declaration offers a new rallying cry for White House hopefuls trying to mobilize voters on the party’s left flank who want a stronger focus on global warming from the Democratic nominee.

Democrats badly want the government to take control of the means of production and entire economy.

Because the polling is still too close and the Dem bogey man will scare a few towards them.

So Bernie and AOC staged a coup and are now at the helm of their fully authoritarian regime?
Oh well, so much for predicting the winner of the 2020 elections.

If they were serious, they would come out in support of a war declaration against China, India and other polluters.
If the world coming to an end isn't worth war, then nothing is.

Yep. It’s also nice how all of these climate alarmist ignore the fact that the private economy naturally decreased emissions in the US more than any government plan did anywhere in the world.

I think I'm going to declare a bullshite emergency

Why do they always do meaningless things like this?
Okay, declare climate change an emergency, nobody cares. Theres nothing binding about these declarations, its 110% a "look at me" moment.
Not to mention Bernie and AOC are the last people on earth to take a practical stance on climate change initiatives.

Will ban all imports from polluting nations like India and China? No, didn't think so. Fake political outrage does more damage than helps.

The US has been trending downward on carbon emissions since ~2007 (we're currently around 1993-1994 levels). LINK
Meanwhile, in China.
While we are creating less carbon emissions, China is not only creating less they are annually putting out more than the US and EU combined. If those two mental lightweights really want to fight "climate change" then they should be working with the President to include carbon emission limits in the trade deal with China.

Can a judge overrule their “emergency”?
Posted on 7/9/19 at 1:20 pm to Carl Kolchak
Have they declared climate emergencies with Asian/Eastern European countries? Because without them, we’re just spinning our wheels here.

I believe there is a term for what this is called.

There's something about the words 'Emergency' and 'Ten Year Plan' that just don't go together.
