OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

“For every dollar spent restoring degraded forests, as much as $30 can be recouped in economic benefits and poverty reduction,” Mr Guterres said. So you are saying the problem was really caused by those clear cutting the amazon and african rain forests.

I would tell the UN that the next time they criticize the United States, we are cutting our funding to one dollar a year and closing the building to all UN diplomats and employees.

Thanks for posting this comedy gold.
(A meeting in NY will cure the world’s ills.)

I did find one and only one legitimately promising phrase in the entire surreal article:

“Mr Guterres says he is committing himself...”

“special summit in New York in September next year”

I would suggest a summit in Buffalo, NY in January.

Does the UN building use air conditioning?
Do any of its members fly?
They should only use solar panels for powering the building.

“She asked him point blank ... as a white male and believer in affirmative action, why don’t you give up your seat at this school to a lesser qualified, potential affirmative action student. He responded (to cheers of the crowd) that he needed to be in this position to help ensure that affirmative action was carried out.”

*****

I do the same thing here LOL. I had an argument weeks back with another white lib democrap, that if you truly are “tolerant”, then why are ALL the white liberals in groups together? I then added “according to the last census, the white man is the minority in this city Los Angeles. She couldn’t take it. As an added bonus she directed it my family and I showed a picture of my older brother who is married to a Filipino woman.Talk is cheap.

Great share. Talk is cheap ... the left doesn’t walk their talk.

All one can do sometimes is to firmly push back. While I have mixed views of Coulter, one thing is she does not back down and doesn’t kiss up to the left so they like her. She doesn’t care. A few lefties come to their senses, most wallow in their emotions and delusions. What I have seen is that after pushing back, their facade is that a non-leftist is wrong, “insane”, racist, blah blah blah and they seek reassurance from their fellow travelers,et al to reassure themselves that they are right ... but deep inside, it really bothers them that someone does not agree with their viewpoint.

Greenland Ice Surface Mass Balance (SMB)* 2016-2018 (2 years)
 

* Surface Mass Balance does not include glaciers calving and melting into the sea.
Due to the loss of a GLACE gravimetric satellite in 2017, full data is hard to come by until GLACE-FO is calibrated.
Estimates from altitude measuring satellites and local runoff measuring stations,
the net ice GAIN for Greenland was 35 Gt (gigatonnes) 2016-7 and 160 Gt in 2017-8,
reversing from a loss trend of ~200 Gt/year since 1996.

If climate change is being caused by us, how can it be moving faster than us ? The UN has always been anti growth and anti human. It is an abomination.
