Should the government increase environmental regulations to prevent climate change?
The earth has gotten hotter summers each year. Sea levels are rising. Coral is bleaching everywhere…
And clearly, it's all because of gas-powered cars and cow farts, and all it takes to solve these grave problems is surrendering our liberty to the weather gods on Capitol Hill. After all, you dumb conservatives, it's not like we're orbiting a giant, flaming ball of gas exploding with the strength of one million nuclear bombs every second, that regularly changes in intensity. It's not like we just emerged from what climatologists call a "little ice age" of multiple centuries and are now getting back to "normal" temperatures for the surface of the earth. No, none of that is true – it's all far-right conspiracy theories. As mere mortals, after all, we must live in submission to that knowledge our far-seeing power holders have, in their infinite grace and mercy, bestowed upon us, that is to say:
(1) The weather is broken
(2) We're the ones who broke it
(3) If we just surrender all of our liberties to our gracious and wise office-holders, they can stretch out their magnificent rods and spare us from the tribulation that would surely arise without them ruling over our lives.
Follow the science!
