Climate Lockdown: Less Driving, Flying, and Eating Meat: "Americans are going to have to deal with less," warns Marc Morano, author of Green Fraud: Why the Green New Deal Is Even Worse Than You Think. "We're gonna drive less, fly less, eat less meat. They're already talking about sustainable housing and shutting down the suburbs." "This is the progressive vision of how you make people do with less in a climate emergency," Morano says.

A recent article in the influential magazine Foreign Policy suggested Democracy may not be compatible with reaching climate goals.

Terence Corcoran: None of this is especially novel or shocking. As U.S. climate skeptic Marc Morano writes in response to Mittiga, the COVID-carbon link has been well-established. Celebrated socialist economist Mariana Mazzucato long ago suggested that unless we do capitalism differently, climate “lockdowns” may be needed to “limit private-vehicle use, ban consumption of red meat, and impose extreme energy-saving measures, while fossil-fuel companies would have to stop drilling.”

Morano’s newest book, Green Fraud: Why the Green New Deal Is Even Worse Than You Think, is a complete takedown of the so-called Green New Deal, exposing it for the complete lie that it is.  Morano’s style of accessible prose combined with an extremely organized narrative is the antithesis of the way climate alarmists work. While the climatistas use confusing scientific language combined with over-the-top fearmongering in order to get the masses to throw up their hands and beg to be saved, Morano refutes the madness with cold, hard logic laid out in easy-to-access sections. ...

Interspersed throughout the narrative are quotes and anecdotes that Morano uses to further make his point that the climate-change movement is more political than scientific; more fearmongering and prevarication than reliance on reason or scientific fact.

Mann: "Just a couple of weeks ago, after the Glasgow summit, one of the worst fossil fuel industry funded professional climate change deniers, Marc Morano, who has worked for decades to undermine public acceptance of the science and to prevent any action on climate, sent out this mass email where he happily quoted Greta Thunberg claiming that the process was a total failure, that the process is broken, and that there's no hope." ... 

"People like Morano will twist our words to feed this sort of doomist narrative that ‘oh, look, you know, even climate advocates have agreed that there's nothing we can do. So the game is over’ and that's just so dangerous."

BUST: ‘I am deeply sorry’: UN climate summit ends in tears – COP FLOP: Greta sums up as ‘Blah, blah, blah’

Marc Morano, a former senior staffer on the Senate environment and public works committee and publisher of the energy blog ClimateDepot, told me he thinks Democrats in the city are taking a course of action that will only harm everyday citizens. He sees the natural gas ban as inevitably going to burden New Yorkers after months of economy inhibiting lockdowns. “New York City took ‘a historic step’ in further punishing its citizens by restricting energy, creating shortages, and promoting price spikes,” Morano said. “After two years of COVID-19 lockdowns, it appears the city government has still not reached the limit to how much it is willing to destroy the lives of New Yorkers.”

“The climate won’t notice the city’s ban on natural gas, but New Yorkers sure will,” Morano said.
