"Community activists" who demand these changes at the local legislative level are the same kind of fools who demanded alcohol be prohibited a century ago.

Viz:

A recently voted out Councilthing from there went back to work for an environmental non-profit which just made locally sourced food unobtainable and distant sourced by kicking ranches off a national park where they had been promised perpetual leases.

As one who chooses to recycle, plant trees, eat organic and work to limit waste, I have the right to update Dr. Johnson's maxim:

“Environmentalism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.”

These people never join the working class for which they pretend to speak, it's always telling others how to live and forcing that down the public's throat through co-opted government.

Yup. They're an advanced, twenty-first century form of what Ayn Rand described as Looters.

That is very kind. Thank you.

Maybe sent it to a few friends. Maybe have a teenager email it to every member of the U.S. House and Senate. (for starters...) ;)

Wonderful work, again!

Thank you for acknowledging the efforts of a hand full of others in exposing the hideous task of "saving the planet". Your work and theirs should be required reading in the public school systems to counter the indoctrination drilled into children by communists who have taken over those platforms. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful ‘Year in Review,’ Mental. I agree it is time to short Environmental Lunacy now that tech has gotten the memo that big data centers need big, reliable energy. The virtue signaling, tithe paying is coming to an end and one will no longer be ridiculed for pointing out the emperor is walking around with his phallus on full display.

Looking forward to your 2025 articles.

Thanks.

These stories write themselves. The hardest job is picking Green Dog Pile winners from the hundreds of millions of annual entrants. ;)
