US public wants climate change dealt with, but doesn’t like the options

People want both action and to keep using fossil fuels.

Omg, do I have to be inconvenienced and actually DO SOMETHING about Climate Change?  We live on Fisher Island, it’s super clean and safe.  We have his and hers Tesla Model X Plaids and our six bedroom McMansion is all electric.  I have my housekeeper buy only organic at the grocery and the designer clothes I wear are sustainable (well, kind of mostly). 

Tippy says her husband thinks it’s all a scam by global leftists to take over our lives.  I wonder....it’s very disconcerting that global leftists are trying to take away all my beautiful things.  And I heard that some kind of climate drama isn’t going to happen until 2050 anyway.  

Hello, Tippy?  Let’s go to Cipriani’s for lunch then shopping in the District?  Wonderful!  I need to pick up something at Prada, then to Fendi and Dior.  I’ll meet you there at one-ish....are you and Gregory joining us for the dinner in Chicago on Friday?  Superb!  yes, Robert will have the Falcon ready and we’ll leave around 4-ish and fly back later after dinner....

Those superstorms that scientists warned would result from climate change? They are here. The day of reckoning isn't in the future. It is now.

The city of Newark, NJ is going through gentrification, as a lot of U.S. cities are. And I've noticed a lot of those gentrified cities have something in common.

A lot of them were hit by superstorms. Mine was hit by Sandy, New Orleans Katrina, you get the picture.

I'm not one to buy into conspiracies, but that's a hell of a coincidence don't you think?

From Ophelia to the Amazon: the Unthinkable Becomes Thinkable

It may be a horror that no one imagined, but it is a horror that the scientists predicted. .. As I write, Ireland is being battered by ex-Hurricane Ophelia, with many schools closed and the Irish prime minister, Leo Varadkar, calling the storm a national emergency.The Taoiseach said Ophelia was the worst storm to hit the country in 50 years. Currently, one person has died and 120,000 are without power.
