From NC Warn's website:

Climate change is very close to moving past a point of no return, accelerating under its own momentum no matter what humans do.

It is already devastating millions of people, especially low-wealth communities who are least responsible for causing it. NC WARN tackles this crisis by vigorously pressing Duke Energy to join — or at least stop impeding — the clean energy revolution. Because North Carolina deserves better than pollution and cronyism.

All of the above is a lie and fraud. Nothing but a PR stunt.

This Op ED has been forwarded to dozens of news outlets, and published by about a dozen.

Another example of advocacy journalism by the left, to advance their agenda - communism.

Headline from the Raleigh News and Observer:

Duke Energy must curb its use of methane. It’s fueling hurricanes.

And they posted the advocacy op ed from Warren with nary a change.

Idiot didn’t even bother to re-write his fake news when the ‘devastating hurricane’ turned out to be a 1 instead of the 5 that the Goreites were praying to Satan for?

Even worse, I also blanked out on Joseph Goebbels.

Time for bed.

They walk among us. Kinda scary, isn’t it??? To believe such a load of horse manure after 40 years of laughably wrong predictions.

Florence was a category ONE hurricane...

*****

The latest in a string of monster storms of recent years, Hurricane Florence punctuates the fact that the cost of climate pollution is accelerating.

Al “Blowhard” Gore pic would have worked as well. Quite the climate forecaster he is (though all have been wrong).

...disproportionately low-income and communities of color such as those in the eastern Carolinas that Florence has hammered yet again.

WHAT?? No LGBTQs? How exclusionary and bigoted of NC WARN! The entire editorial staff should resign. And go drown themselves in the flood waters of Florence.

You can live in temperate areas and live with a storm occasionally or move to higher ground. Your choice. The native Americans (Indians where I am from). Told the French don’t live here it floods all the time. Oh and the skeeters are big as Red tailed hawks. The French laughed built levees and drank enough wine to cause skeeters to fly into trees headon. Welcome to New Orleans.

You keep posting like that and you will offend “the keeper of the hanging chad”, “the inspiration for love story”, “the sultan of the I grabbed my ankles a lot to get here”, “inventor of a the internet” algore. The most likely suspect in Ms Ford’s fairly tail. Where was he when the party went down?
