Environmentalists Claim “Just Solution” to Climate Change is Wealth Redistribution

By /

Don’t ever let anyone tell you that redistribution of wealth isn’t a major part of the agenda for the global warming alarmist crowd. Here’s a graphic prepared by ALBA, the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America, which Wikipedia describes as “an intergovernmental organization based on the idea of the social, political and economic integration […]

We slept in tents and padded about in our hand-sewn moccasins, up and down the hilly trails on the fragrant pine needles. Dark was really dark, so we could pick out the constellations

Recently on his nationwide talk show, host Rush Limbaugh said, “If you believe in God, then intellectually you cannot believe in manmade global warming.” Two evangelical climate scientists took him to task in The Christian Post. “Rush Limbaugh doesn’t think we exist.
