How soon should we start re-fitting every building in America to be eco friendly and not contribute to more climate change? Shall we ban all livestock farming, pigs, those damn farting cows. Banning all fishing vessels that burn carbon? What would be the time table for shutting down all fossil fuel burning electric producing plants.
Maybe if the American people had the specific answers to these questions instead of fanatics who can only say "we better do something right now" but won't say what that something is other than to repeat endlessly that we should be in the Paris climate accords.
Exactly how much money should we send to the UN to distribute to "developing" countries like China and India who are industrialized but not at our level and it would be unfair to them to stop their progress until they have reached our progress they say. I believe the number right now that we are suppose to chip in, is in the range of 100 billion.

one goal of the Paris Agreement was to raise $100bn (£77.7bn) a year by 2020 to support climate action in developing countries, first discussed as a target in 2010. The money would be used to help poorer countries invest in green energy and renewable technology.

So if the climate fanatics want to get serious and tell us exactly what it will cost and how we must "transform" to reach these lofty goals, PLEASE tell me.
But here is the problem the climate fanatics don't want to talk about.

68% of Americans Wouldn’t Pay $10 a Month in Higher Electric Bills to Combat Climate Change
So all these Democratic candidates are just whistling in the wind because Americans are not willing to see their electric bills go up even $10 to fight climate change and when it comes down to Warren and Sanders and the AOC cabal having to tell the American people exactly what they will be asked to sacrifice, their journey to power will be over IMHO.
And poor Greta Thunberg will have to go back to school and get an education if she wants a real job. Her 15 minutes is about up.
