Gas stoves, pizza ovens & now — Washington Democrats move to regulate tire standards to mitigate climate change

Ari Hoffman of Post Millennial: Washington Democrats are looking to make tires more expensive for consumers in an effort to combat climate change. The state’s Department of Commerce will be requesting that the Democrat-controlled Legislature give the agency the authority to regulate tire efficiency. … 

The new standards would apply to replacement tires for passenger cars and light trucks but not to original tires installed by manufacturers on vehicles. California has claimed that the tire standards would reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 1 million metric tons per year… 

Editor of the Modern Tire Dealer trade journal Mike Manges wrote in an editorial, “I still believe that a mandate could not only limit consumer choice but also limit a dealer’s ability to sell what he or she wants — based on the customer’s budget and preference,” Manges continued. “Not all customers will be able to afford higher-priced tires that can meet or exceed whatever rolling resistance target the CEC will require.”

Watch: Morano on Ingraham on Fox: EV mandates ‘making freedom of movement more difficult’ to ‘force us into mass transit, subways, buses’ – Plus Gore in Davos claims Net Zero will stop global warming COLD

The Ingraham Angle – Fox News Channel – Broadcast January 17, 2024 

Morano on cold temps stopping EVs: I would argue this is a feature, not a bug. I mean, this is part of making travel, freedom of movement more difficult — the more we’re stuck with cars that don’t work, cars that take a long time to charge, the more they think they’ll force us into mass transit, subways, buses, and the Earth will smile. This is what the ideologues that Davos are pushing. This is what the Biden Administration is pushing.

Morano China’s auto dominance: It was Trump’s 2013 tweet about global warming being invented to help China. China is now passing Japan as the number one Global exporter of cars. There is an invasion of Chinese cars. It’s because they have a monopoly on EVs. As I say, EVS dig the Earth, and that’s why China has a monopoly.

Morano on Gore: Al Gore at the Davos meeting is now saying once we achieve the political goal of Net Zero — which was essentially pulled out of thin air,  according to a top UN scientist — the Earth’s temperature will stop rising almost immediately within 3 years. Gore’s pulling a COVID tactic, like wear your mask, do the lockdown, get the vax and everything will be better very quickly. They’re literally pushing this now — three years and we will stop global warming, and it’s over. We never have to hear about it again according to what we’re hearing from Davos.

Watch: Morano on Varney on Fox debunks ‘hottest year’, EV mandates – ‘Electric buses will make Virtual Learning come back for students as they won’t be able to get to school’

Fox Business Channel – Varney & Co – Broadcast January 10, 2024

Morano: “The hottest year on record is pretty much declared almost every year every other year. It’s based on temperatures hundreds or tenths of a degree difference between years — many times within the margin of error, the data set and even the NASA former head global warming scientist said it’s ‘not important’ and a political statement.

It’s meant to create fear, meant to push politics like EV mandates. And if you were actually worried about climate change, the last thing you would think of is EVs are the solution. It takes half a million pounds of materials, including rare earth materials to make one average-sized Tesla battery.

Morano on EVs: “EVs dig the Earth, and not on a groovy 1970s Brady Bunch way, Stuart. But I mean, they dig the earth deeply with lots of emissions, with low environmental standards, and we have farmed out all of that mining out to the countries with the worst human rights and environmental standards.”

Morano on Electric School buses: “Mandating electric buses is not going to work, but the only thing electric buses will do is make Virtual Learning come back for students as they won’t be able to get to school. And then once the EV buses collapse the electrical grid, Virtual Learning won’t even exist because of blackouts. And California is very well known for their blackouts.”

Stuart Varney: You’re painting a very dark picture Marc Morano. Come back and do it again. We’ll see you soon.

Watch: Morano on Fox & Friends presents the top 4 ‘climate hypocrites’ of 2023 – And the winner is…

Fox News Channel – Fox and Friends – Broadcast December 30, 2023



Rachel Campos-Duffy: Mirror mirror on the wall. Which climate activist was the most hypocritical of them all. Marc Morano, we love him,  he has all the names and he joins us next…So who tops the list of biggest climate Hypocrites this year? Well our next guest can name a few. Climate Depot publisher Marc Morano joins us now in a very snazzy red suit.



Marc Morano: I’m ready to celebrate.  I take award ceremonies very seriously.

Rachel Campos-Duffy: I love it. So who tops this Oscar?



Marc Morano: Climate Hypocrite #4: We start with King Charles. … King Charles, formerly Prince Charles, is issuing climate tipping points and here’s the thing Rachel he has servants reportedly iron his shoelaces, and he travels with a portable toilet. So I think he’s probably the last person on planet Earth who should be lecturing us. 



Climate Hypocrite #3: The UN cop 28 the Climate Summit itself. It had the largest carbon footprint in the history of climate summits. .. As CNN was telling us we needed ‘carbon passports’ to travel — us the unwashed masses –the UN climate was also planning on restricting our meat eating as John Kerry announced he wanted to go after agriculture. But at the UN climate summit,  they were serving wagyu beef, Philly cheese steaks, they had lavish restaurants serving meat. There were no insects on the menu and there was no Bill Gates lab-grown meat either.



Climate Hypocrite #2: Next on the list is before we get to the final winner here is none other than Bill Gates himself. Bill Gates has literally had the world’s largest carbon footprint for years. Gates has a $43 million Oceanfront home and he’s got a $30,000 a month electricity bill again. 



Climate Hypocrite #1: The winner is John Kerry, and John Kerry gets this award easily for the end of 2023. We have to give the number one climate hypocrite award to John Kerry because he stood before Congress at a hearing and was grilled by a Congressman where he repeatedly said ‘I don’t own a private jet,  I’ve never owned a private jet.’ And it wasn’t until about 45 minutes later that a congressman grilled him and said wait a minute, your wife owned private jets for decades and then finally sold them when the negative media came out, and John Kerry was forced to say, ‘Yes my wife owns one. Yes, I’ve flown in HER private jets.’



Morano: An actual positive award to Abigail Disney, the Disney heiress. We’ve got to give her props. She has come out and stopped flying private jets. She is one of the wealthiest heiresses in the world, heir to the Disney fortune. She now wants to ban private jets for the 1% wealthiest people in the world and I say she’s got it right. We need to support Abigail Disney the Disney heiress, because any of these climate rules they come up with should apply to the John Kerrys and the Bill Gates, and King Charles types first. Let’s experiment on them with travel bans, restrictions on meat eating, insect-eating, And only then should we consider these restrictions for the rest of us. Let’s support what the Disney heiress is doing. .. 

Rachel Campos-Duffy: Marc,  I love how you always bring this to our attention. Wishing you a Happy New Year and thanks for joining us with your awesome list.
