Action Needed to Fight Climate Change [semi-satire]

The threat of climate change is so dire that the World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab is demanding that "standards of living in the west must be reduced by at least 75% if there is to be any hope of saving the planet. Every individual would have to give up personal car use, energy usage, meat-eating, and other wasteful so-called necessities. For most people, this lifestyle would mean abject poverty, misery and minimal, if any, freedoms."

Of course, Schwab himself lives a life of unconstrained luxury and expects to continue to do so "because I am not like most people. I am the genius who must have the freedom and resources I need to sustain my planet-saving crusade."

China is by far the world's leading emitter of planet-warming gases, accounting for as much as the next five nations combined. Yet, Schwab is not pressing for China to make the same kind of reductions in emissions "because it is the perfect model for how society should be organized. An elite is free to dictate whatever policies it deems necessary for the good of society. It has no 'bill of rights' or Judeo-Christian myths of the so-called individual's right to life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness. It can totally focus on the collective welfare of all to the exclusion of any other interfering notions."

Fellow WEF member Dennis Meadows offered what he called "a more merciful approach for averting the climate change disaster. Rather than make everyone suffer a 75% reduction in standard of living it would be kinder to eliminate 86% of the current population so the surviving 14% could sustain a higher standard of living. Rather than nearly universal misery, the unneeded masses would be granted oblivion so the fortunate minority could live comfortably."

Apprised of these options Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga) pointed out that "Blacks make up about 13% of the population in the US. Designating us as the chosen survivors could be the most feasible way of redressing the grievances caused by the hundreds of years of slavery and discrimination inflicted on us. The other 1% could be set aside for Hispanic immigrants so that every Black household would have an opportunity to have a live-in servant to tend their needs 24/7."

But the WEF members like Al Gore get to keep their private jets and limos and everybody else has to drive a Flintstone mobile:

I’ve been holding in my farts (unless & until I meet Mr. Schwab in person). Is that doing ‘my share’?

Don’t drive, don’t heat your home, and don’t exhale.
