Take climate, for example\u2026<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re all familiar with how climate alarm has been used to dictate changes in transportation, energy generation and construction codes. Of course, these efforts have been massive failures, as witnessed by the ongoing supply chain disruptions and energy shortages.<\/p>\n<p>Large parts of Europe, Japan and China may freeze in the dark this winter thanks to efforts to close down nuclear and natural gas-fired electricity generation. The U.S. will be only slightly better off. We won\u2019t freeze in the dark, but we will face much higher prices for home heating and gas at the pump.<\/p>\n<p>The irony is that the U.S. will burn 23% more coal this year because of the shutdowns in nuclear and natural gas and the inability of wind turbines and solar to make up the difference. Nice job by the climate alarmists!<\/p>\n<p>Will they be held to account? Will they see the error of their ways and abandon their delusions? Don\u2019t hold your breath for either. They\u2019ll only dig in harder.<\/p>\n<p class=\"centered subhead\"><b>Climate Alarmism Influencing Financial Decisions<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Now the elites have a new way to use climate alarm to their advantage. They will use their existing control of the banks to force their climate agenda by dictating how banks lend and how you are allowed to spend.<\/p>\n<p>The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) will be required to factor climate alarm into decisions on federally insured or guaranteed mortgages. The Labor Department will evaluate retirement plan managers, including 401(k) and IRA advisers, based on how they factor climate alarm into their investment decisions.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026click on the above link to read the rest of the article\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lies, Lies, Lies!
