The big line it was unprovoked stop spreading that BS no one’s buying it we overthrew the Ukrainian government in 2014 put a puppet stooge government in and aided and abetted known neo.

The US Middle Class is taxed to death to manufacture and sell weapons that the top 1% do not pay for via tax loopholes. We sell these weapons made and purchased with taxa revenues, but then don't dish back dividends from the sale back to citizens. The real people that need to be invaded are in Washington.
Climate Change is making weather events more extreme. This will impact the worlds food supply.
Floods, droughts, fires, excessive heat, snow storms and low water levels in reservoirs and in ground water storage are becoming more common. We must stop adding more fossil fuels to the climate fire.
India, China, Brazil, Japan, US, Europe, Indonesia, Canada, Germany and Australia need to do more to reduce use of fossil fuels. They must stop building and financing more coal fossil fuels power plants.
Time to go all in on wind and solar energy and electric vehicles.
Fossil fuels are a bad investment for people and the planet.
Investors are divesting from fossil fuels. ESG investing is growing.
The cost of dealing with the impact of climate change will be greater than the cost of reducing the impact.
The world population is expected to grow by another billion people. Where will the food come from ?
