CO2 is the source of plant growth.

Stop exhaling Bernie and AOC.

Gestapo uniforms may come back in style by then.

They hate guns and cars. Both empower the individual. They want total control. They want everyone’s movements to be controlled. That’s why they are pushing for “self-driving” cars, which they will control from a control center.

Except themselves. They will have the best of everything, as the ruling elite always has when the left is in power.

Come and take them! (many expletives suppressed).

look at the misleading words - “30 percent more carbon”. Yeah, 0.04% of the atmosphere is made to sound like it’s half of it.

Cars, guns, air travel, shopping bags, straws, soft drinks, books, social media postings - it might actually be easier to make a list of things the Dems don't want to ban. Just who I want in charge of a government, people who insist that everything not mandatory is forbidden. They're all for freedom, sure, but not ours.

Consider a gas powered tankless. Likely will save you a ton of money in the long run.

".... 'When I take a lungful of air in this moment, it has 30 percent more carbon in it than when I was born,' Oregon Sen. Jeff Merkley, the bill’s main sponsor told The Huffington Post on Wednesday. 'That is a change that has never happened in a single generation of humankind on this planet.' ...."

How would this guy know these "facts" he spews? The answer is, he doesn't. He's making it up to make it sound like carbon is a bad thing.

Why do you think Oregon is so green, congresscritter from Oregon? Because it's covered with carbon-devouring trees and plants, that's why.

And I suppose he has data that goes back to the beginning of mankind in order to make his second claim. Let's see the data congressman. Don't have it? That's because it doesn't exist.

Just a couple of examples of why the general public has not embraced the climate change movement of the Left. Because they don't tell the truth and make claims that are so outrageous, that most American see through their scam.

And my last point, how do these mental midgets think that these fossil fueless cars will be manufactured? With massive amounts of fossil fuels, that's how.

When the Left's unicorn farts start providing energy to fuel our economy, then I'll listen. Until then, bugger off.

2040? Isn’t that too late? AOC says the planet will like, uh.. explode and like not be there and stuff in 12 years.

The “new” talking point is Carbon parts per million. These people are clinically insane.

Ray, you’re toking too much Hopium. Not going to happen unless you swap out battery packs. Tesla tried that with a crappy business model and it failed. You owned the battery, so you had to drive back to that recharge station to pick up the batter that you owned.

They will need to find a way to stop an F350 with a fifth wheel attached to it. “Go ahead, make my day”.

“When I take a lungful of air in this moment, it has 30 percent more carbon in it than when I was born...”

The simplest solution, the one with immediate effect, would be for this idiot to stop breathing. Win for everyone.

No, single family home. The HVAC guy didn’t explain who or what banned them. He just said they were not allowed to install anything bigger than 50 gallon.

Home Depot still sells 80 gallon electric water heaters.

It was the first time I’ve heard of this, so I don’t have any details. Our local utility (Avista, the old Washington Water Power) announced 100% “green” energy by 2045 and is doing everything they can to get people OFF of electricity.
