A climate activist who lit himself on fire on Earth Day outside the United States Supreme Court Building has died, according to reports.

Wynn Bruce, 50, of Boulder, Colorado, died Saturday, a day after he set himself ablaze in Washington, D.C., the Metropolitan Police Department told Fox News.

The incident happened around 6:30 p.m. on the plaza in front of the court building.

He was airlifted to a local hospital, where he died.

A Facebook page belonging to a person named Wynn Bruce said he was a Buddhist and a climate activist.

In 2020, Bruce left a cryptic Facebook comment that included a fire emoji and the date of his death, 4/22/2022.

So - he protested the release of pollutants into the atmosphere that could poison the earth by... releasing pollutants into the atmosphere that could poison the earth?

Well, he failed. He died on 4/23/22. 🤣

So he presumably timed it for Earth Day...

He’s the guy the Democrats will name a day after once they fire up (excuse the pun) the propaganda machine.

The evil at the top play these fools like a piano.

[databoss]

50 yrs from now when the planet is doing just fine he will look back on this having been a dumb decision.

[EEGator]

You mean who was…

[Vision]

Funny how all global warmers like to buy ocean front property, fly in private jets, and in this case go against the cause he killed himself over. And of course none of them will debate global warming in public.

Not very enviro-friendly way to off yourself.

If everyone who believes that CO2 is dangerous would simply put a plastic bag over their head to eliminate their own contribution of CO2, we could solve this problem overnight.

How very carbon of him.
