Swedish activist Greta Thunberg earned her moniker Doom Pixie because of her diminutive height and shrill accusations of human and planetary doom<\/a> allegedly due to fossil-fuel-fueled climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her most famous tirade was directed at world leaders for allegedly doing too little to stop it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHow dare you?\u201d<\/strong> she fiercely scowled<\/a> at United Nations Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres, presidents, prime ministers, dignitaries, and functionaries in the UN\u2019s General Assembly Hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou have stolen my dreams, my childhood with your empty words\u2026. People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction. How dare you?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No, Miss Thunberg and the politicians, bureaucrats, and activists who turn your diatribes into policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How dare YOU<\/strong> employ bogus scares based on computer models that can\u2019t even recreate past climates, much less predict future climate and weather? How dare you turn every temperature and weather event, flood, drought, and forest fire into assertions that wildlife, humanity, and planet face imminent demise?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How dare YOU<\/strong> claim plant-fertilizing, planet-greening, life-sustaining carbon dioxide from fuels, manufacturing, and agriculture somehow endangers<\/a> our human health and welfare<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How dare YOU<\/strong> demand that we shut down the energy systems that make our lives, health, and living standards possible? That we must be deprived of modern comforts, aspirations and loved ones, because you force us to eliminate energy systems that work \u2013 and replace them with expensive weather-dependent substitutes that bring blackouts, poverty, disease, deprivation, joblessness and shortened lives?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How dare YOU<\/strong> tell the poorest people on Earth that they must renounce their God-given right to modern technologies, health, and living standards \u2013 and sacrifice their landscapes and wildlife with wind turbines, solar panels, and renewable energy trash<\/a> on your altar of climate fanaticism?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How dare YOU<\/strong> demand that we abandon free enterprise democratic capitalism that has brought health and prosperity to billions \u2013 and replace it with socialist-communist-totalitarian governments that have immiserated billions and starved and murdered over 100,000,000 people<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shortly after the October 7, 2023, barbarities, Doom Pixie shifted her focus to promoting Hamas, Hezbollah and Palestinian terrorist dreams of eradicating Israel and Israelis \u201cfrom the river to the sea.\u201d Perhaps her audiences had tired of her climate rants, perhaps because they realize the \u201ccrisis\u201d is wildly overblown, the world will need oil and gas for decades to come, and mining, manufacturing and installing wind, solar and battery power is environmentally horrific. Or maybe vilifying Israel simply pays better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But her climate harangues continue \u2013 and her acolytes still glory in imposing diktats that raise costs and cost lives, while doing nothing to stabilize Earth\u2019s frequently and perpetually fluctuating climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, I am eternally astonished at how often I think their callous insanity and depravity couldn\u2019t possibly sink any lower \u2026 and I\u2019m proven wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

California policies have forced oil drilling and production, refineries, coal, gas and nuclear power plants, and even hydroelectric plants to shut down. Big surprise: it now has the highest electricity<\/a> and gasoline<\/a> prices in the continental USA. Kind bureaucrats now say they will shave a few cents off per gallon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By mandating improved \u201ctire efficiency<\/a>,\u201d so tires glide along roads with less resistance. All-season 65,000-mile US tires must now be replaced with 27,000-mile Euro tires. That will at least double tire costs over a vehicle\u2019s lifetime. Far worse, it will bring more accidents, injuries and deaths<\/em>, because the new tires require longer stopping distances, especially under wet conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

California, Connecticut and New York also lead the US on Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative<\/a> and net-zero<\/a> policies \u2013 with Virginia\u2019s \u201cmoderate\u201d governor and legislators working feverishly to catch up, thereby driving household, school, hospital, business, factory, and data center electricity and operating costs ever higher<\/a>. You need heating, air conditioning, cooking, lighting, and computing? Too bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under those same climate-centric policies, Britain\u2019s per capita primary energy consumption has plummeted since 2005<\/a>. Its wealth and living standards have done likewise. Meanwhile, its electricity prices<\/a> are among the world\u2019s highest, thanks to wind and solar replacing coal, natural gas, and nuclear power plants. Jobs and entire industries have disappeared, and residents have been forced to remove air conditioning units<\/a> if they actually use them during heatwaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The jobs, energy cost, and industrial situation is just as bleak<\/a> in Germany where \u201cbathroom ministers\u201d now inform homeowners they cannot have a shower and bathtub<\/a> in the same bathroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As absurd as all this is, nothing compares to the totalitarian imperialism of UN, European, World Bank, World Economic Forum, Obama-Biden, and other \u201cclimate crisis,\u201d \u201cenergy transition,\u201d and \u201ctraditional agriculture\u201d ministries. For decades, they have imposed their \u201cmoral\u201d and \u201cethical\u201d principles on poor countries, to keep them from developing \u201cexcessively.\u201d Until recently, they\u2019ve gotten away with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obama science advisor John Holdren insisted that the United States and other industrialized nations must \u201cde-develop\u201d \u2013 and then tell underdeveloped countries what \u201cecologically feasible development<\/a>\u201d they will be permitted to reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For decades, this meant no grants or loans for coal, gas, or even nuclear power plants \u2013 because impoverished countries were expected to \u201cleapfrog dirty fossil fuels\u201d and go directly to \u201cclean, renewable, sustainable\u201d wind and solar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why, even today, the average Sub-Sahara African has electricity 20 minutes a day<\/a>, 141 minutes a week, 123 hours per year (out of 8,760) \u2013 sporadically, at totally unpredictable times, for a few minutes or hours at a time. Homes, shops, and even schools and hospitals are severely energy-deprived, and access to clean water is a luxury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eco-imperialist, neo-colonialist policies have also dictated agricultural and health policies. Farmers were told for years that they must not use pesticides, herbicides, or biotech seeds \u2013 especially if they want to sell their produce in European markets. They should even forego tractors and be content with ox-pulled plows and \u201ctraditional,\u201d \u201cecological\u201d subsistence<\/em> farming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even malaria control must be done without pesticides, with often counterfeit and substandard drugs<\/a>, and with hospitals that lack clean water, adequate electricity and even window screens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, President Trump has restored regulatory sanity and American energy dominance \u2013 and ended the use of foreign aid as a weapon to browbeat poor countries into accepting these lethal policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That compassionate approach \u2013 and the refusal of China<\/a>, India, and other emerging powerhouse economies to buy into the insanity \u2013 has further encouraged still poor developing countries to reject eco-imperialism and neo-colonialism. They now tell the world they want, demand, and expect rapid, dramatic transformations<\/a> in living standards, nutrition, and health through modern energy, industrial, agricultural, and healthcare infrastructure. As their sacred right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world is changing, at least in many states and countries. It\u2019s about time. But there is still much left to be done \u2013 beginning with electing American, European, Asian, and African leaders who understand and champion these realities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
