Recently, NYC witnessed the “march to end fossil fuels.” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was there. Among the things she said to inspire the crowd: 

‘); googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.display(‘div-gpt-ad-1609268089992-0’); }); document.write(”); googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.pubads().addEventListener(‘slotRenderEnded’, function(event) { if (event.slot.getSlotElementId() == “div-hre-Americanthinker—New-3028”) { googletag.display(“div-hre-Americanthinker—New-3028”); } }); }); }

We must be too big and too radical to ignore…We are all here for one reason: to end fossil fuels around the planet. 

Jean Su of the Center for Biological Diversity, who helped organize the mobilization, said: 

This is an incredible moment… Tens of thousands of people are marching in the streets of New York because they want climate action, and they understand Biden’s expansion of fossil fuels is squandering our last chance to avoid climate catastrophe. 

‘); googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.display(‘div-gpt-ad-1609270365559-0’); }); document.write(”); googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.pubads().addEventListener(‘slotRenderEnded’, function(event) { if (event.slot.getSlotElementId() == “div-hre-Americanthinker—New-3035”) { googletag.display(“div-hre-Americanthinker—New-3035”); } }); }); }

I think that AOC on her best day is an idiot with a following based largely on a political variation of the Greater Fool Theory. She is a kakistocratic leader. 

For a female-appearing politician, AOC is easy on the eyes to some observers. This not only helps her Twitter account, it also is proof that Brains x Beauty = K. 

Further, I am absolutely clear that anthropogenic global warming cum climate change is BS. 

That said, I want to give her the benefit of the doubt and go with the climate change flow.

I am going to propose a way to test the “grit” of the protestors by giving them what they want, on a limited scale, i.e., ending fossil fuels locally before going global. This way, if they are proven right, they can convert the rest of us to their position without gluing themselves in public spaces. 

Electricity for the electric grid is generated from a variety of energy sources: fossil-fuel power plants, nuclear power plants, hydropower plants, wind turbines, solar power, qeothermal power, and biomass power.
