My wife’s cousin just proudly purchased a Tesla. Tonight she told me he posted a story about some guy who said investing in fossil fuels is a loser idea.

I asked her to check with her cousin and see if he has any idea how electricity for his Tesla is generated.

To be fair, where we live, some of it hydro power and some is nuclear along with natural gas.

Some years ago my sister was going on about CFC’s destroying the ozone. I got tired of it and finally offered to borrow the equipment and come down and pump down her home and car A/C, and fridge and properly dispose of the CFC’s.

She never mentioned it again.

Love it!

Let them put into action what they are demanding of others.

I love old-fashioned, brainy, witty Brits. Thank God there still ARE some.

When my daughter was a Junior in HS, she came home one night and just ripped the family about global warming, our carbon footprint, our wasteful food practices, our use of energy and on and on. I asked where she had gotten her information and she said that it was from her history teacher (?).

The next day was a Friday and she was running late as usual. She came to me said, “We gotta go, I have to go to school.” I told her that I had been thinking about what she had said the previous evening and told her that I was going to work from home that day in an effort to reduce our carbon footprint. She said, “But Dad, I have a Bio test today, we have to go.” I told her that saving the planet was more important than her Bio test. She was livid, and called some friends to see if she could get a ride. No luck. She stayed home that Friday.

I suggested she spend the weekend doing some research on global warming and energy use and see if what her teacher seemed right. She did and spent two days writing a paper for her history teacher that debunked human caused global warming. It was not an assignment but she gave it to the teacher anyway. It came back with a note at the top that said “I'll have to think about this.”

I seem to remember that she was able to take her Bio test on Monday, but the perspective and discernment she gained was more valuable than anything.

the school should tell them they will meet the kid’s demands but only IF those students drop out, become homeless, and never use fossil fuels of any kind, or any products created using fossil fuels-

IF they can’t agree to that then they need to shut the heck up about fossil fuels-

“And the bratty college students froze sadly ever after” would be the most amusing end to this story!

Everyone who buys into man-made global warming and wants to get rid of hydrocarbons should be forced to read Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6.

Think globally. Act locally.

This guy was pretty clever. There are no viable alternatives for heat at the moment. Maybe there will be in the future. Maybe the kids should ask the bursar to invest a little bit in small companies researching alternatives. Though in the end it is likely that Shell and BP will end up owning those technologies, too.

Wow! From a British college administrator/teacher. Maybe he will become the “Iron Gentleman” (like Margaret Thatcher was the Iron Lady) of academia.

God knows British colleges need a gigantic enema of the atomic size to clean out their PCism, foppism, cowardice, Marxism and sheer ignorance.

The left, commies and socialists are proud of their mentally ill, programmed offspring who will not only kill you but themselves as well
