About The Author
Dear wapo editors please take your schizophrenic medications. Your track record of supporting forever wars, unlimited$$$ for Congressional Military Industrial Complex and it's owners operators the corporate Warfare Queens who never lose a contract is #1 in the world. On one hand let's blow Ukraine to smithereens as a way to topple Russia AND China has created over one billion tons of greenhouse gases pollution. Destroyed the biosphere of Ukraine and parts of Russia. Created 7 million refugees. And here you are pretending to give a damn about the world's accelerating slide into climate chaos. Baseline PPM of CO2 greenhouse gases pollution is 280 ppm. Today we're at 420! Add in other greenhouse gases pollution and we're at 520 ppm. The deniers rely on folks like you as your HYPOCRISY when it comes to climate is GLARING and useful for deniers.
