Sounds like some foreign countries I used to work in.
Sounds like where some modern countries are headed by putting the environment ahead of humans.
Detroit?
No Fossil Fuels No Refrigerators No Cooling No Transport No Medicines etc. In less then 1 month, half the US population is dead.
And it is all “for the children”. Gack!
Robert, you say that as if it is not their intended outcome.
People are not that fragile. I say one year, not one month.
Many Americans are fat enough to last a couple years.
Yet these idiots may have very well swung the last election with their “Superstorm” Sandy hype. How sad. This country is headed toward oblivion.
He seems to be carrying a pistol. That’s not what the Greens would have for us.
A replay of my previous comment:
The Leftist Dream
“If I wanted America to fail….” I’d call for mandated 83% Cuts in CO2 by 2050, with sharp cuts starting immediately — as passed by the U.S. House in 2009. You talk about taking a wrecking ball to civilization… Yes, what one person calls a harrowing failure, most leftists call success.
If this AGW scare doesn’t work, the liberal elite econuts will rebrand and repackage and reposition. Obama’s Science Czar’s John Holdren’s past call (before the AGW scare) to “de-develop the United States” & create a “stable low consumption economy” is the political expression of the leftist dream, and they will push and push for that. Driving it all is secular guilt, and the dream of their own Eden. But the raw feeling of their pastoral fantasy is not dressed in wonkish words such as “a stable low consumption economy,” but THIS:
“We have wished, we ecofreaks, for a disaster or for a social change to come and bomb us into Stone Age, where we might live like Indians in our valley, with our localism, our appropriate technology, our gardens, our homemade religion, guilt free at last.” –Stewart Brand, Whole Earth Catalogue
They see draconian CO2 cuts as the ticket to fold up industrial civilization, if all goes “well.” But unfortunately, for them, and everybody else, it wouldn’t lead to this Utopian Eden. An Alabanian told the story of what happened to their country with the collapse of communism (and just some supply systems): “Even the trees lining the roads were chopped down.”
It would be no Garden of Eden. I could say that instead it would be like a Mad Max world — but it’d be much worse. No desert idealism of clean and clean-cut ruffians. Tons of people (at first), and just cutting discomfort, cold, disease, dirtiness, dysentery, hunger, and violence.
You’d think at some point, let’s say after severe CO2 caps are implemented, and other problems ensued, people would see it coming, and repeal… But there would possibly be too much inertia, and once a series of collapses begin, it may be impossible to halt the descent.
Once they realise their iPads can’t be plugged into the tails of animals like in the movie Avatar, they’ll stop being green.
