- Biden Presided Over Record 7% Spike In CO2 Emissions During His First Year In Office Due to Lockdown Rebound
The nation’s carbon emissions went up by 7%, the highest percentage increase ever recorded, as the U.S. produced more than 4.9 billion metric tons of energy-related carbon dioxide in 2021, representing a 325 million metric ton increase from 2020, according to an EIA report...Following the coronavirus outbreak, carbon emissions produced by energy consumption fell by 547 million metric tons or 11% in 2020 compared to 2019 levels. The bulk (56%) of the rise in energy consumption came from the transportation industry which was heavily impacted by the coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent economic recovery.
Total emissions in 2021 remained 243 million metric tons lower than they were in 2019 and 1.11 billion metric tons lower than 2007’s peak levels, the EIA found.
- Climate lockdowns in Oxfordshire UK: Social Credit System for travel – Council seeks to ‘cut car use…by placing strict rules on car journeys’ to meet Net-Zero goals

From the Oxford City Council Consultation page we see the plan is to reduce journeys that you think are necessary but the councilors don’t.
"Why are we introducing trial traffic filters? Across our county, we want to reduce unnecessary journeys by private vehicles and make walking, cycling, public and shared transport the natural first choice. This will help us deliver an affordable, sustainable and inclusive transport system that enables the county to thrive whilst protecting the environment and making Oxfordshire a better place to live for all residents."

- Watch: Morano Explains Climate Alarmists’ Plan To Follow The Covid ‘Emergency’ Lockdown Playbook
The Federalist's Evita Duffy interviews Marc MoranoMorano: "The climate activists look at how everything was done in Covid, without a single bit of a vote under emergency powers, and they want the same thing to happen in climate,” said ClimateDepot.com founder Marc Morano. “They’re now in the process of trying to ban meat-eating without anyone voting on it. They’re doing it through net-zero regulations, they’re doing it through corporate-government collusion, and they’re trying to ban the gas-powered cars. Again, like Covid, without a vote.”

- Environmental scientist hints at climate lockdowns: ‘What if we viewed climate change in the same vein as the global pandemic?’ – ‘What if we…swiftly, & drastically, changed our behavior, as we did when the pandemic hit?’
Sapna Batish: "What if we viewed climate change in the same vein as the global pandemic? ... What if we listened to the advice of this doctor of the Earth, and swiftly, and drastically, changed our behavior, as we did when the pandemic hit?"
Paging Dr. Earth!? "Imagine we developed a wholly new graduate degree, called ErD (Doctor of the Earth), to train bright, passionate, climate-conscious people to care for the Earth, following the training of a medical doctor? This training could involve a rigorous standardized course of study and training, but of the earth and its systems. After passing a test upon completion of the program, the graduate would be placed in a 'residency program', to specialize in a specific specialty (food security, climate finance, etc.) or train to be a generalist, focusing on ecosystem health, like a GP."

- Energy Lockdowns Have Arrived: During Colorado heatwave, thousands locked out of control over their home thermostat during ‘energy emergency’
Xcel confirmed to Contact Denver7 that 22,000 customers who had signed up for the Colorado AC Rewards program were locked out of their smart thermostats for hours on Tuesday. "It's a voluntary program. Let's remember that this is something that customers choose to be a part of based on the incentives," said Emmett Romine, vice president of customer solutions and innovation at Xcel. ...
But Talarico said he had no idea that he could be locked out of the thermostat. While he has solar panels and a smart thermostat to save energy, he says he did not sign up to have this much control taken away. "To me, an emergency means there is, you know, life, limb, or, you know, some other danger out there — some, you know, massive wildfires," Talarico said. "Even if it's a once-in-a-blue-moon situation, it just doesn't sit right with us to not be able to control our own thermostat in our house."
