Lights out, you ain’t goin nowhere

NEW YORK (AP) — Yelling that the future and their lives depend on ending fossil fuels, tens of thousands of protesters on Sunday kicked off a week where leaders will try once again to curb climate change primarily caused by coal, oil and natural gas.

But protesters say it’s not going to be enough. And they aimed their wrath directly at U.S. President Joe Biden, urging him to stop approving new oil and gas projects, phase out current ones and declare a climate emergency with larger executive powers.

“We hold the power of the people, the power you need to win this election,” 17-year-old Emma Buretta of Brooklyn and the youth protest group Fridays for Future said. “If you want to win in 2024, if you do not want the blood of my generation to be on your hands, end fossil fuels.”

Don’t you wonder how they all got to NYC?

We hold the power? There won’t be any power! Just stupid

In order to make this transition you don’t cut off the source of our energy before we have viable alternatives. Instead you work to lower demand.

Planes, trains, home heating oil, gasoline, diesel trucks, military? No problem, just cut off what they need to operate. Push to cut supply and see what happens to prices not only of fuel, but every product and commodity that depends on it.

  1. Cut off supplies and the resulting price would be irrelevant. No groceries, no heat, no work being done anywhere. Who is driving these idiots to propose this nonsense?
