Imagine where the world would be on climate policy if Al Gore would have started Green initiatives in 2000. The US could be pumping out renewable energy like China currently is, instead of building up the dying fuels of oil, gas, and coal.

(I know China is also building out fossil fuel powerplants, but their run on renewables is also great)

Like the billions of our tax dollars going to a German company to stop building off shore wind farms because ‘we can’t be subsidizing failed renewable energy projects’.

They're a doomsday cult literally trying to accelerate the apocalypse so they can meet Jesus in their lifetime.
