Over the past month I have shared actual recommendations from “experts” concerning what we are supposed to do about climate.
Most of these proposals are unworkable and non-sustainable, will likely have no impacts on the climate, and very few people will support them.
Like with Covid, these proposed restrictions are unlikely to work – and like lock downs, cannot be continued for more than a few weeks at most.
But they certainly portend a bleak and dystopian future if they were to come to fruition.
- Ban all pets
- Ban all meat
- Ban all travel – shut down all air travel and destroy the aviation industry from 2030 to 2050 (and decades beyond during which it would take to recover the industry)
- Prohibit having children
- Ban modern farming
- Ban single family housing
- Mandate walking, bicycling or riding a bus – because vehicle ownership will be banned
- Ban being overweight, or fine people who are overweight, or make taking weight loss drugs mandatory
- Make humanity go extinct
The above proposals have been made by “experts” and others.
Individually, they might seem as possibilities, but taken together, their absurdity is apparent.
Few will take climate change seriously when absurd, unworkable and unsustainable solutions are proposed – or when solutions call for an end to democracy and freedom and that we enter an authoritarian censorship regime that uses the force of government and the elite to turn off dissent and alternative views.
In the real world, if you want to solve a problem, you find realistic, workable and sustainable solutions. None of these meet those goals – in fact, many proposals will lead to the deaths of millions of people. (But that’s okay – one professor argues its okay to potentially kill hundreds of millions if it saves 1 to 2 billion people – based on his pulled out of a hat number that climate change will kill 2 billion people.)
How many millions of people are you willing to kill in order to implement a particular climate proposal?
I will eventually collect all of the proposals together into a single post that is linked in the right column of this blog for easy reference.
