What’s more scary than climate change? — The rise of the far-right
The quote of the day is from a German politician who sums up the major driver of these policy shifts.
Earlier this month, German Finance Minister Christian Lindner told Politico that stricter energy efficiency rules for buildings could fuel the rise of the far-right, amid growing apathy across Europe over plans to reach net zero.
So Climate Change might cause the sixth mass extinction of life on Earth, but nothing is more frightening than the possibility of the far-left losing power at elections.*

Pope Francis spoke at a Clinton Foundation event, warning of the dangers of what he called the “globalization of indifference” and “the Third World War fought piecemeal.”
French Support for Climate Change Travel Restriction
It is hard to say what is more alarming: French contempt for fundamental liberties like freedom of movement or the national collapse in IQ suggested by this:
A new poll shows that a shocking number of French citizens support banning people from flying more than four times in their lives due to climate change.
A poll from research firm Consumer Science and Analytics Institute (CSA) found that 41% of citizens would support such a limit. That number rose to 59% support among 18-24-year-olds.
Anyone who believes that the weather has recently become a problem and we can fix it by forbidding people from traveling is encouraged to get in touch regarding a bridge I am selling that crosses the East River.
It is unclear whether anyone in France is dumb enough to believe that the travel restrictions would apply to the ruling class as it jets around the globe to climate conferences.
Let’s not single out France. The epidemic of stupidity that is both cause and effect of moonbattery is worldwide:
Climate activists across the globe have pushed for wide-ranging restrictions aimed at reducing carbon emissions, from limiting car travel to banning plastic straws.
Banning plastic straws. Because the weather. Reasoning with people who swallow leftist climate ideology is not an option.
