Don't Switch Off Your AC for the Climate. Commie China Makes Your Sacrifice Irrelevant.

If you are thinking of cutting down on your use of the air conditioner this summer because you’ve been bombarded with climate alarmist propaganda, don’t bother. It’s not only that there isn’t a catastrophic man-driven climate crisis, but also that the emissions from Communist China make any small sacrifices in the United States utterly irrelevant.

I once shocked a very nice but very leftist relative by replying to her statement that she thought she would cut down on AC use to save the planet with: “China is building a few hundred more coal plants this year. Don’t worry about it.” That was a couple years ago now, but the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) continues to increase its national pollution with blissful disregard for their people‘s health, the atmosphere above their country and seas, or the woke lectures of their fellow Commies in the West. The only reason, indeed, that the CCP pays lip service to climate alarmism is to encourage its enemies to sabotage their industries and electricity gids (and because China manufactures windmill and solar panel parts).

Both my weather app and outlets around the country have been fervently assuring me that this summer is way above average hot, as if I hadn’t lived in Arizona my whole life and didn’t know from experience that was balderdash. But all the propaganda — and of course, it is not specific to Arizona — is meant to condition Americans into believing we have to sacrifice our cars, our AC, our hamburgers, our airline trips, and much more "for the planet." The elites really want to impoverish and control us more easily, but vague threats of climate change are a useful excuse, even if alarmists’ major predictions never have come true. So let’s talk some numbers that undermine the whole alarmist narrative in America and across the West.

First, here’s an interesting chart:

There has been a sinister shift for years now where alarmists force excessive regulation that kills our industries in America and forces those industries to move to Third World countries, where there are practically no health or safety standards, but there is very cheap and exploited labor. All that the climate crazies are accomplishing by attacking coal plants, steel factories, and copper mines is ensuring astronomically more pollution and labor abuse overseas. That also makes our sacrifices irrelevant. 

Ireland is very woke on climate, with a "Climate Action Plan" that will supposedly slash carbon emissions by 2050. This is a terrible idea for many reasons, including the fact that carbon is the basis of all life, so cutting carbon is literally an attack on life. But the main point here is that any emissions cutting that happens in Ireland will be rendered meaningless in a few months thanks to the CCP.

Even the USA, large as it is, produces nowhere near the level of China's emissions. Don't worry about the AC at your church, your home, or even your local stadium. The Commies on the other side of the world are polluting the atmosphere more than any sacrifice of yours could possibly dent.
