House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Sept 22, 2022: "We saved the planet.  We're saving the planet with record $360 billion to save the planet, generating jobs and cleaner air and cleaner water and jobs and security for our country.”

Climate Depot's Morano response: Yea! Now can we go back to driving cars, eating meat and using appliances, and controlling our own home thermostats?!

Cheers! Take a moment to let it sink in! With the Inflation Reduction Act going into law, the long battle to fight 'global warming' has finally been solved! Let the good times roll! "Roll out the barrel, we'll have a barrel of fun. Roll out the barrel, we've got the blues on the run. Zing boom tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer!"

BUT WAIT...The pork-barrel Inflation Reduction Act will not even impact global CO2 levels, let alone the climate!

Statistician Bjorn Lomborg: Biden’s IRA climate bill will ‘do almost nothing for the global temperature…even by end of century’ – ‘Will reduce temps by less than 1 thousandth of a degree F by the end of the century’

We have also heard these premature alleged climate-solving declarations before. But the 'climate crisis never seems to get 'solved.' See:

Flashback: 2015: World leaders hail ‘historic’ Paris climate deal as ‘major leap for mankind’ – U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon: “History will remember this day,” Ban Ki-moon said after the pact was gaveled through to thunderous applause. “The Paris agreement on climate change is a monumental success for the planet and its people.”

Al Gore on UN Paris pact in 2015: “Years from now, our grandchildren will reflect on humanity’s moral courage to solve the climate crisis and they will look to December 12, 2015, as the day when the community of nations finally made the decision to act,” Gore said.

Stephen Moore: But as Pelosi's quote makes clear, this is about symbolism. It is about ruining the economy as a sacrifice to Mother Earth. Marc Morano, the journalist who runs the Climate Depot website, asks: "Will human sacrifices be next to appease the 'angry' Earth gods? Actually, this bill will create human sacrifice by imposing even more suffering from energy deprivation, supply chain issues, good shortages, inflation, debt, and bad science."

He's right. The suffering that will occur from this assault on American energy security and reliability could be profound — and it will be the lowest-income people who will be hurt the most.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Biden-Manchin climate: “How can they (Republicans) vote against the planet?” Pelosi said. 'Mother Earth gets angry from time to time, & this legislation will help us address all of that'

Climate Depot's Morano Comments: "Has it comes to this, a climate bill in DC will appease 'angry' Mother Earth? Will human sacrifices be next to appease the 'angry' Earth gods? Actually, this bill will create human sacrifice by imposing even more suffering from energy deprivation, supply chain issues, food shortages, inflation, debt, and bad science. Congress is allegedly passing this pork-barrel spending bill in Washington to make the Earth 'happy'? But, the Earth -- 'angry' or not -- will not notice the impact on global CO2 emissions, let alone the climate! Is Pelosi's comment what passes for intelligent climate discourse in Washington DC these days?!"
