Biden Goes Nuclear

President Biden was speaking at a fundraiser a few months ago when he said we might be on the verge of “nuclear Armageddon.”  Curiously, he didn’t seem to be all that upset about it. Well, he’s back on the topic again. 

While trying to address climate change at another fundraising event last night, Biden said this, “If we don’t stay under 1.5 degrees Celsius, we’re going to have a real problem. It’s the single-most existential threat to humanity we’ve ever faced, including nuclear weapons.”

Let me say the obvious: If there is a nuclear war, the climate is going to be seriously damaged. In addition, cities will be destroyed and millions of people will be killed. And whether we have a nuclear war or not depends on decisions and mistakes that human beings make. 

Meanwhile, it is debatable whether human beings can do very much about the temperature of the earth, which has gone up and down long before human beings were building factories and driving SUVs. 

The biggest determinant of the temperature on earth is a little thing called the sun, and, thankfully, Joe Biden isn’t in charge of that! But this climate change delusion that Biden is operating under has real consequences. 

We are risking ruining our entire economy in this mad dash to stop using the very fuels responsible for our prosperity, and that are, quite frankly, the only hope that a billion poor people around the world have of ever escaping poverty.
