Official Global Warming thread (merged)

I've seen this same exact video in multiple places on Twitter, all with different interpretations. Some said it was staged like whoever this Tim dude is, some said he biked from DOT to WH Cabinet meeting (about 3 miles), some said he traveled by vehicle to the WH and then biked back to DOT. This is going to be one of those things people view through their politics.
The only thing I know for sure is that if it was a staged photo op, a shaky cell-phone video from behind some trees is not exactly a good one.

3 miles!

3 miles!

Well, 3.3 to be exact.

Got to be kidding me... and then this.

China, today’s top emitter, vowed to reach carbon neutrality by 2060, and over the past month intensified its domestic political mandates to peak emissions this decade.

Greta Thunberg Takes Vaccine Stance Against Climate Conference, Deals 'Significant Blow' to UK Government

It seems climate activist Greta Thunberg may be heading down a path pioneered by previous pundits, taking attention received over a particular issue and parlaying it into a portfolio of publicly prominent political positions.

Or maybe she’s just concerned about COVID-19.

Either way, here’s some big news: The teen has no plans to attend the upcoming United Nations climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland.

The conference, of course, will gather world leaders to address the concept of — as Elvis experienced in the 70’s — our temperature risin’.

But Greta’s got a hunk of burnin’ intercontinental love.
