I couldn’t vote for Kennedy because he’s a climate change fanatic.

Show me the evidence on that. He is an environmentalist, anti-pollution, anti Monsanto, etc. But he is not a carbon or global warming acolyte.

If you are really interested in RFK Jr’s own words, Search Twitter. Use the Wayback Machine. I can’t post links here, but his Tweets haven’t yet been scrubbed.

Kennedy praised the lockdowns for the beneficial effect on pollution. While in Germany, he called for jailing ppl who dare voice dissent on Climate Change. The man is a fanatic. He is an elite and a hypocrite.

He commented on the change in pollution, which we noticed too as did many around the world. But in no way he advocated for lockdowns to continue. He has talked in many interviews about the complete devastation of the lockdowns to humanity.

Their past rhetoric indicates true motives many times.

Why can't links be posted here? Even if they won't open for some reason, we could copy them down and type them in.

Air pollution linked to vehicle exhaust from gas/diesel vehicles!!!

He liked covid lockdowns and he’s the type to want a WEF climate lockdown because of pollution/gasoline vehicles!

That tweet is about concerns over weakening government regulations on emissions and worsening of air quality compared to conditions before the lockdown. "A Dirty Economic Restart." Again, it is the nuance, not the extremist interpretation of these words. For example, if we had spent time on making more economic hybrid battery gasoline engine cars during the "pandemic" and incentivizing those rather than pushing electric only cars, so much more good could have been accomplished for the environment. For example, that is the position Toyota has been taking as they don't buy into the all in vision of electric vehicles.

RFK Jr. is all in to replace the ChiCom Virus lockdowns with global warming lockdown. He has a book out about his global warming/climate change globalist solution.

Yeah. He’s a leftist lunatic.

He is just another democrat that will kill oil and bring us $10 gallon gas. China is already making power moves on the petro dollar.

JFKJr's on book Fauci and COVID measures criticized lockdowns heavily and was banned off of Amazon. He talked about this in the announcement speech this week. He is not supportive of lockdowns as a solution to anything.

I saw that. There's a new video on YouTube about Toyota being guided by what their customers want. So refreshing to see.

Three months ago he posted a comment on his CHD site saying that carbon was an existential threat to the planet:

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/exxon-climate-scientists-predicted-damage/

"the carbon which now poses an existential threat to our planet."

He supports the Green New Deal

He's a global warming/climate change hoax fanatic.

Even Mark Crispin Miller, who used to believe in it, has since changed his stance in light of new evidence. But not Kennedy.

His main thrust here seems to be contamination and pollution. But he will clearly get drawn into debate on the climate science, hopefully in a good way. I don't see him as a fanatic but someone who needs to hear more from other climate scientists and scholars on long cycle earth eras of cooling and warming that could be spuriously correlated with any current century trends in warming. I don't think he is advocating for social credit on climate in any way as are the globalists. Nor banning gas stoves or closing nuclear plants or mandating 15 minute cities for example. The views are far more nuanced. Interestingly we are hearing so much more on the complete lack of evidence that we are in a warming phase or that the poles are warming, they are cooling again apparently. Thanks for the link Sandra.

Gorebull Warmers say pollution and include carbon. Get over it and stop being fooled.

I'm not one of those people. I do support the work of Randall Carlson, Robert Schoch and colleagues on the history of earth geological cycles, solar and celestial activity and historical catastrophism. From those perspectives human carbon has nothing to do with earth climate fluctuations. Carbon has nothing to do with pollution.

I wish more people followed the work of Randall Carlson and Robert Schoch--their information is fascinating. And I certainly wish more knew about historical catastrophism.
