Here’s LBJ in 1965 warning the world about the problem of fossil fuels
creating a climate crisis.

He issued this warning more than a half century ago, and then the
government did almost nothing.

Every single living human being should be furious.

GOP climate denialism is a big problem, but it’s also a problem that
Democratic voters mindlessly applaud meaningless tweets like this👇 from a
president who is approving more fossil fuel pipelines and drilling leases, and
who refuses to declare a climate emergency.

Climate change is real, by the way.

what happened was when Richard Nixon got into the White House he did away with the
environmental impact investigations being done by locals and formed what
Republicans say is best and started the EPA.
the Environment Protection Administration owned/operated by big business.
what followed was years worth of protests by what the nuke industry calls greenies.
I remember 100,000 people protested the Seabrook New Hampshire nuke plant build.
they built a cooling pipe line through one of the largest Clam beds in the Northeast
destroying it and the industry all around the area.

so it was the change of administration that was the cause.
it is funny now nuke plant supporters call themselves the best 'green' electricity providers.
but they just turned on two giant nuke heater plants in Georgia, now that might
cause global warming with out the CO2 added they just think they are clean, ESG crap.

Nixon, the gift that keeps giving.

"it is funny now nuke plant supporters call themselves the best 'green'
electricity providers."

That always baffles me.

Meanwhile, Fukushima begins its 30 year dump of 'safe' radioactive tritium
into the Pacific.
