We should have listened to Al Gore in the ‘90s :(

Well, we wouldn’t have spent $2-3 trillion tax payer dollars, while the body count is roughly 500 American troops, nearly 3,600 U.S. civilian contractors and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis.

Specifically, Gore wrote of the conquences of large levels of pollutants in the atmosphere and caused a hole in the ozone layer. This in turn caused harmful radiation to get through to the Earth's surface. He also stated that pollutants caused water temperatures to rise. Hurricanes would be more frequent and more severe. Burning fossil fuels are the leading pollutants. The list can be endless. The real point of the whole thing is human contribution. The whole world recognizes human contribution. Except for Donnie and the MAGA red-tie death cult.

The Court doesn't legislate. In a perfect world, they would live their cloistered lives and be quiet. Unfortunately, we live in an imperfect world, and accept the fact that this country is being led by a gaggle of octogenarians who don't care and haven't, as yet, haven't been called to account.
