Well, no more Coke for me! Just have to send them a message to let them know why! I used to be a Pepsi fan, so I can go back to it easily.

Coca-Cola is going ahead with this, even though the climate change bs has been outed as a fraud and a hoax? How to go, Coca Cola!

And Pepsi has Obama’s symbol on it.

Who is going to buy their over-priced sugar water when we’re all broke.

Can’t buy Pepsi, can’t buy Coke... guess it’s time to switch to RC Cola.

Like Ringo Starr sang back in the 70s, “No, no, no, no, I don’t drink it no more.”

Send letters to Coke, and be serious about boycotting it. Coke is making a lot of money on other beverages that they own too, so be careful to read before you buy.

I have had my last Coca Cola...

Me too, as of right now. Besides, I prefer diet Mt. Dew and G2 anyway - Pepsi products.

Still trying to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony, I see.

Naturally, they'd like their manufacturing plants to be exempt from any such legislation.

Some excerpts:

“We create a system in which you need a permit to emit [carbon dioxide] or other greenhouse gases,” the guide explains.

So, we’ll need a permit to breathe?

“The Green New Deal also includes a similar, international system that issues “emissions rights to nations according to their population.” Poor nations would have spare permits, so they could profit by selling to “rich industrialized nations that needed more.”

As I’ve said for fifteen years, the bottom line of fighting global climate change would be carbon permits allocated on the basis of population. That means you’d have to send your wealth to Bangladesh in order to drive your car. Go ahead, democrats and pass that and see what happens at the ballot box.
