I wonder if I had children if I would ignore that Antarctican glacier the size of Florida that’s breaking up as it pushes its way off the land into the sea. I wonder if I’d whistle past the graveyard and laugh at how stupid those scientists are.
“Next thing you know they’ll be telling us that all those assumptions about frozen tundra warming up and turning to methane gas that seem to be happening much faster so much so they are talking about it on 60 Minutes, how we may have already passed the point that we as a species can make any difference.
No I’d just ignore the threat of world water wars breaking out in the next 20 years because the supply of fresh water which already strains to meet the needs of the nearly 8 billion people today, and can’t possibly meet the needs of the 13 billion people the planet is projected to reach in 23 years is so much nonsense. No I’d be more concerned about the increase in melanin and the corresponding loss of white privilege.
The loss of monarch butterflies is meaningless. Next thing you know they’ll be telling us that insects are dying off. Good riddance to bad rubbish I say. It’s not as if the needs of other animals to have a source of food competes with our need for perfectly formed fruits and vegetables. If insects are important God will provide. No need for us to get involved. Last time we listened to environmentalists we lost our DDT. Mother’s milk? Hah! Next thing you know they’ll take away Roundup for causing cancer.
I need my my privileges. And I need more space. And I don’t like all those weeds. Scrape them away so I don’t have to look at them. I want a nice driveway.
Next thing you know scientists will tell us we could change the future if we all work to make changes. When did that ever work? The holes in the ozone layer that scientists say were caused by CFCs and went away when the international community stopped manufacturing CFCs are probably just another scientific phony baloney story to justify getting paid. I wouldn’t trust them any farther than we can throw them.
Look what scientists did to the price of cigarettes. They used to be 25 cents a pack -scientists and doctors squawk about cancer, the gol danged government gets involved and now they are almost $10 a pack. Cancer rate drop-schmancer rate drop. Coincidence. Same with the ozone layer. Same with rising sea levels. Same with the insect die off. It’s all BS as sure as the snows of Kilimanjaro.
Anyway all we really need for animal life are dogs, cats, cattle, chickens, and hogs. Biodiversity my butt! Who gives a damn about fish? I don’t even like the taste of fish. I’d take a beef steak over a salmon steak any day. That Texas sized dead spot in the ocean filled with plastic is just a lot of hot air. If that was really the case really there would be whales dying with bellies full of plastic. There would be plastic at the bottom of the Marianas trench. Just a bunch of hogwash and nonsense.
Well, it’s almost time for Sean Hannity and I need to know what to think. Thank God and Rupert Murdoch for Fox News. They think so I don’t have to. As sure as there’s the three countries of Mexico Fox News will be telling the truth to stop the scourge of melanin and the loss of my privilege. I feel better now. If I had children and grand children I’d be tucking them into bed. I’d say don’t worry, be happy. God will provide. Nothing people do will ever destroy the majesty of His creation. I can’t wait to get to heaven so I can tell God about all the fun I’ve had and to thank him for making our beautiful world. I’ll shake his hand and ask what he has for me to do next.”
