Actor and long-time liberal Robert Redford said he hopes President Barack Obama has the “courage” to bypass Congress and make coal-powered power plants reduce their carbon emissions.

In a video message for the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), Redford, an environmental activist, said that because Congress has not taken action to address climate change, Obama should.

“Record setting heat and drought, rising sea levels and severe weather events like Hurricane Sandy: climate change is happening, fast,” Redford said. “We’ve got to stop making the problem worse and that means reducing carbon pollution from its biggest source, coal-fired power plants. It’s harming our environment and our communities.” …

How many kw-Hrs does Redford use each month? Until he’s using less than the average American, he can STFU!

The photo of a “coal fired power plant” that accompanies the story is from a foundry in 1938 Czechoslovakia!!

Shut up and act.

I’ll bet God is relieved now that He’s got Obama to take care of all these worldly problems. See how nothing has ever worked right until we got Big O to run everything. If only we all had the faith in him that Robot Redford has. (Sarc.)

This speech makes WAY more sense in China, where unfettered emissions from coal-fired power plants have caused SERIOUS air pollution problems in northeastern China.

Holy crap...I swear I won $30 bucks in a Redford death pool like 8 years ago. I hope Joey Bobabowitz does not read this thread.

If Redford wants a one party rule or a dictatorship he needs to move the F out of America. He should just stay in his exclusive socialist enclave, shut up and leave the rest of us NORMAL Americans alone. When was the last time he did a movie that did not have an anti government, or anti conservative government bent?

Another actor with lukep-warm IQ making statements about something that is above them is exibited here. He’s sitting there in a nice warm room making statements about other people’s right to keep warm, people with just enough to make it. He doesn’t care what the cost is because he can cover it. The hell with those who are struggling to make it all work. They’re just pions! Let’s have a nice green earth, despite those who have to die.
