How Biden’s climate plan could limit you to eat just one burger a MONTH, cost $3.5K a year per person in taxes, force you to spend $55K on an electric car and ‘crush’ American jobs

President Joe Biden‘s ambitious plan to slash greenhouse emissions by 50 to 52 percent over the next decade could prompt sweeping changes that could affect how Americans eat, drive and heat their homes. 

Biden announced the goal to cut emissions by 2030, compared with 2005 levels, at the start of a two-day climate summit on Thursday. 

He vowed the plan, which would set the US on a path of a zero emissions economy by no later than 2050, would create jobs and boost economies. 

But he is yet to release any firm details on exactly how such a plan will affect the daily lives of ordinary Americans. 

He also hasn’t set out the price for reducing emissions.  

The plan immediately sparked criticism from Republicans and industry experts who argue it isn’t sustainable in the long run, will put jobs at risk and cause tax hikes for Americans.   

While Biden hasn’t released details on what life could look like for Americans, experts and recent studies have laid out what would need to change by 2030 to reach the goal.

AOC says ‘trampling’ of ‘indigenous rights’ and ‘racial justice’ is a cause of climate change

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez faulted the rejection of “indigenous rights” and “racial justice” on Tuesday as causes of climate change.

“The climate crisis is a crisis born of injustice, and it is a crisis born of the pursuit of profit at any and all human and ecological cost, which means that we must recognize in legislation that the trampling of indigenous rights is a cause of climate change,” the New York Democrat said, “that the trampling of racial justice is a cause of climate change because we are allowing people and we are allowing folks to deny ourselves human rights and deny people the right to healthcare, the right to housing and education.”

U.S. intelligence touts new emphasis on climate change, calling it an “urgent national security threat”

The U.S. intelligence community will seek to “fully” integrate the effects of climate change into the analysis and assessments it offers policymakers, Director of National intelligence Avril Haines said Thursday, calling the varied, intersecting and intensifying consequences of climate-related phenomena “an urgent national security threat.”  

“For the intelligence community, climate change is both a near-term and a long-term threat that will define the next generation,” Haines said during a session of the Biden administration’s virtual Summit on Climate. “And it’s one that the intelligence community has long recognized as important to our national security, though we have not always made it a key priority.” 

Climate change issues should “be fully integrated with every aspect of our analysis in order to allow us not only to monitor the threat but also, critically, to ensure that policymakers understand the importance of climate change on seemingly unrelated policies,” Haines said.

Global Warming Rebranded as “Climate Emergency”

No matter how hard Dr Fauci and the rest of the liberal establishment try to keep Covid hysteria going indefinitely, the pandemic is winding down. It is time to take the lessons learned regarding how much the little people will tolerate without rebelling and apply them to the global warming hoax. Did I say “global warming”? I meant, “climate change.” No wait, they have changed it again, in hopes of generating panic. Update your Newspeak Dictionary; the nonexistent weather crisis is now to be called “climate emergency.”

The Hill reports:

Scientific American Magazine announced Monday that it will begin using the term “climate emergency” instead of “climate change” when referring to the challenges of global warming, saying its task is to accurately report the news.

Actually, its task is to support the liberal agenda. Calling the fact that the climate continues to fluctuate as it always has and always will is not dispassionate reporting; it is propaganda.
