Global warming is not a hoax. But efforts by our betters among the governments and corporations to pretend to fix it are a farce.

China is a proud signatory of the Paris Agreement, and American climate scolds regularly hold up the People’s Republic, with its massively subsidized solar panels and green five-year plans, as a role model for climate action. This is done often as an effort to embarrass American politicians into taxing or regulating fossil fuels.
