She seems to confuse being a climate scientist with being a climate eco-activists. But since most climate scientists are unable to tell the difference, I guess that is understandable.

Is this a case of an old windbag corrupting the youth? Or a fanatical teenager corrupting the elderly? It’s hard to tell nowadays.

“I’m going to hang around D.C. until the weather gets iffy, then fly back to Montecito, where they don’t have any weather. They DO have cute shops offer hand-knit hats that look cool on TV. To save the polar bears, you see. Or to save African peasants, or to sacrifice African peasants — I can’t remember which.

“As for American peasants, like the ones in Northern California throwing out their food after random blackouts, well then, let them eat canned goods. Or cake. Or get generators like I’ve got for ALL my mansions.”

Attention Moderators….lewd reference in the true statements below:

Should not the great Greta mimic the great Jane Fonda in her methods of attracting an audience in a few years hence…for the great CAUSE??

Perhaps Greta, or the “97% who all agree”, can fill the missing blanks in this table.
Within 10% will do, as I appreciate that these numbers fluctuate from time to time.

Volcanoes = ppm
Oceans= ppm
Swamps = ppm
Bush fires = ppm
Other = ppm
Coal Power stations = ppm

TOTAL = 410 ppm of CO2

The important question being …who would play Elle Mae in a remake of the Beverley Hillbillies today?

Miss PC herself Amy Schumer or Our Aussie and excruciatingly unfunny comic Hannah Gadsby…
Though given Hannah does …Bat for the other team..an Aussie cricket term for Gay (probably illegal to use that term nowadays) she might be best served in the fabulous Miss Hathaway role played perfectly by Nancy Kulp…Later in life…In 1989, Kulp gave an interview to author and homosexual activist Boze Hadleigh in which she said,…As long as you reproduce my reply word for word, and the question, you may use it … I’d appreciate it if you’d let me phrase the question….There is more than one way. Here’s how I would ask it: “Do you think that opposites attract?” My own reply would be that I’m the other sort — I find that birds of a feather flock together. That answers your question.

Modern day Hollywood would have Miss Hathaway swooning over Elle Mae and would completey ruin both The Movie and most of the good roles in the series…And Jed would, on the advise of Woke banker..Mr Drysdale from Goldman Sachs…leave all the Bubbling Crude…Oil That is…in the ground to save the family BackBlocks….and The Raccoons…and The Gators!
While Ellie Mae and Miss Hathaway stay in Beverley Hills and form The Lesbian Ladies Club for Hot Chicks and Climate Justice.
Naturally the movie stinks and bombs to blazes.
Anybody got any actual real hotties to nominate for a new Elle Mae?

RE: Golden Pond

The boy warming up to the old grouch who took him fishing made the picture. “Young pipsqueak befriends crotchety geezer,” is a great theme. That’s what made “The Wizard of Oz” so endearing. Dorothy wins over everyone in the end, even the bogus Wizard. That theme could be used more often, after half a century of cops & robbers, secret agent pyrotechnics, chase scenes, choreographed bloodletting, cheesy romcoms, and doomsday disaster films.

It’s odd when you think about it, why kids charming geezers isn’t done more often, what with the grotesque oversupply of sourpuss, over-the-hill movie stars from the now-geriatric, baby boomer generation. They (we, I’m sorry to admit) always did take themselves too seriously, and have failed in the self-deprecating humor department.

Years ago I remember one of those short real life things Readers Digest had.
A guy related that he went into a bar in a small town and saw a “new guy” sitting at the bar.
He decided to have some fun and went up to him and claimed he was sitting in his seat.
The “new guy” looked up and him and calmly picked up his beer and went to an empty booth.
Mentally gloating, he looked over at the “new guy” and realized it was Chuck Norris. (They were shooting part of a film in town.)
He went up to him and said (paraphrased), “You could have kicked my ass. Why didn’t you?”
Chuck’s answer, again paraphrased, was, “There are some things worth fighting for. A bar stool isn’t one of them. Sure, I could kick your ass, what would that prove?”

(I think that happened the day before his chute didn’t open and returned it to a feminist rally.8-)

Thanks for the comments, but here’s a Reality Check: Fonda was in North Vietnam posing for pictures with the NVA, who subsequently utilized her to their propaganda advantage. The VC were a Marxist faction inside South Vietnam, they were 11% of the population at the start and 19% of the population at the end. My twin brother (bird dog pilot) and I (ride-along program with pilots-I was an Air Traffic Controller) flew over many enemy and we both saw less than 1% armed VC, the other 99% were uniformed and well-equipped NV Regulars. The left and their cooperating media tried to present the VC as defending their country, but not true. Sort of like today, where the left and their cooperating media present Climate Change as Republicans driving large SUV’s and trying to destroy our planet.

Reply to  Sara
October 14, 2019 5:29 pm

As we all remember, micro-manager Lyndon Johnson was the President during the critical years of the Vietnam War. He was no Commander in Chief. The Vietnam War Memorial was dedicated NOVEMBER 13, 1982, honoring 58,000 American troops who died. U.S. forces inflicted over a million enemy fatalities, essentially wiped out the Viet Cong as a fighting force during the TET Offensive debacle, yet involvement by politicians forfeited our victory. North Vietnamese colonel, Bui Tin, received the unconditional surrender of South Vietnam on April 30, 1975.

Bui Tin explained how the protests by “anti-war peace demonstrators” (the most successful propaganda program ever operated by the Soviet Union and its Eastern Bloc allies) was key to the Communist “victory”:
“Every day our leadership would listen to world news over the radio at 9 a.m. to follow the growth of the American antiwar movement …
… Visits to Hanoi by people like Jane Fonda and former Attorney General Ramsey Clark and ministers gave us confidence that we should hold on in the face of battlefield reverses …
… We were elated when Jane Fonda, wearing a red Vietnamese dress, said at a press conference that she was ashamed of American actions in the war and that she would struggle along with us.”

After the war, Bui Tin became vice chief editor of the Communist Party’s official newspaper in Vietnam, People’s Daily, but he grew disillusioned with Communist corruption and, in 1990, fled to Paris.

In an interview, Bui Tin stated:

“The roots of the Vietnam War – its all-encompassing and underlying nature – lie in a confrontation between two ideological worlds: socialism versus capitalism … totalitarianism versus democracy …

The conscience of America was part of its war-making capability, and we were turning that power in our favor. America lost because of its democracy; through dissent and protest it lost the ability to mobilize a will to win.”

Commenting on this dangerous trend is retired Major General Patrick Brady, considered the most decorated living veteran. Major General Patrick Brady wrote, June 4, 2013:

“The greatest danger … the feminization, emasculation and dismantling of our military.

The two most important elements of national survival are the media and the military …

We know the media are failing – God help us if the military does also ….

Wind turbine blades being disposed of in Casper landfill

The Casper landfill will soon be the home of more than 1,000 decommissioned wind turbine blades and motor housing units.

According to Cindie Langston, solid waste manager for the Casper Regional Landfill, the materials will be deposited in an area of the landfill designed to hold construction and demolition material.

CRL is one of the few landfills with the proper permits and certifications to accept the decommissioned turbine materials.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/cowboystatedaily.com/2019/08/07/wind-turbine-blades-being-disposed-of-in-casper-landfill/amp/

Each turbine blade will need between 30 and 44.8 cubic yards of landfill space, using a total of 448,000 cubic yards of the 2.6 million yards set aside for construction and demolition material.

I still have a letter I got from “Kiwi’s” mother (he was the Z-console operator, 21 years old), in response to my letter telling her all about “a day in the life of….” on our missions. I will be buried with that letter and the small New Testament my older sister gave me before I deployed that I kept in a leg pocket in my flight suit on all 109 missions plus FCFs and training sorties.

This is a copy of the bulletin from the memorial service held for the 8 man crew of “Baron 52,” lost over Saravane, Laos in February 1973, less than a week after the phony “ceasefire” that supposedly ended hostilities in the Vietnam war.

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow
of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” Psalm 23

Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life; he
who believes in me, thought he die, yet shall he live,
and whosoever lives and believes in me shall never
die.” John 11:25-26

John Kerry equated Guardsmen with draft dodgers. The majority of members of the Guard and Reserves are former Active Duty military. Chances are good that the next time you fly on a commercial airliner, the pilots will be former military and perhaps members of the National Guard or Reserves.

I often wondered how many names on the Vietnam Memorial Wall are of National Guardsmen and Reservists. One hundred and forty Medal of Honor recipients were in the National Guard. Six thousand seventy-seven members of the National Guard or Reserves died in Vietnam.

Draft dodgers? Cowards? Naw, that would be Bill Clinton. John Kerry got FIVE deferments before his rich connections landed him a berth in the Navy. His last deferment was “to study FRENCH in Paris”….longer than his three month Medal-harvesting tour in Vietnam.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Thank you for your service. I had the honour to fly F4s on exchange with guys with a collection of gold stars on their sleeves. You are the reason that these people are free to demonstrate against what we have done to them! Fonda, Clinton and their ilk, despite their vast wealth, will never know the feeling of intense camaraderie and pride that we have. We will always prevail. Our fallen brethren will always prevail. We won.

These turbines are the gift that keeps on giving. You can’t melt down composit blades and use them for something else, we’re stuck with them. Icisil’s idea in his comment is brilliant. Failing that, perhaps Algore, Maxime, and the Pope can replace their exisitng open borders managment systems with blade segments planted end on.

She should go to one of the countries that is supposedly making “climate change” worse.

I hear China is welcoming climate change protesters.

I wonder if Hanoi Jane will ride her bicycle to the Pentagon to sit on a tank to protest its CO2 emissions.

If she really wants to cut CO2 emissions, maybe she can bike to Washington DC from Hollyweird. She might run into frozen, slippery global warming on her way across the Rockies.

She never recovered from her AI induced climactic (sic) episode in Barbarella. Inspired by the song by the Beach Boys, Good Good Good Vibrations. They weren’t from California by any chance?
Jane Fonda is doing what all lame brained Hollywood stars seem to be doing. She is jumping onto a convenient band wagon. The fact it isn’t going anywhere and the fact it won’t cost her anything is glossed over by the compliant news of this un-historic event. Big news!! “Hollywood old timer goes to Washington….briefly, once a week”
Her slogan is– “Come on you grannies, we only have 12 years left”
The natural honesty of that slogan, is in sharp contrast to the climate crisis lies driving the grannies on.
Hey maybe it will inspire Hollywood to present a new award at the annual awards jamboree, maybe call it “The Granny Award” it has a certain ring to it, don’t you think?

“I’m moving here. I’m going to be here through Thanksgiving, and Christmas, sleep, rain, whatever it is.”
What? Perhaps she could try putting that half-baked thought together again, but maybe not. What do Thanksgiving and Christmas have to do with sleep and rain? Is there anyone actually home there?

I bet that Jane will make frequent commutes between Washington D. C. and her home in New York City, and not by sail boat either. If I lived another 1,000 years, I would not come close to Jane Fonda’s carbon footprint.

I feel like a man of substance, lost in a world of symbolism.

Hmm, perhaps what she meant to say was “sleet, rain, whatever.”

Yup, weather rather than climate, but fits the context better, methinks.

She was going to use the postman’s motto of “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night…” to show how committed she was going to be in getting her message through; but then since the “snow or sleet” part doesn’t really fit the global warming meme, she lamely trailed off with “whatever…”!

But an exciting actress who had a super dad! ‘member dad training up Perkins to be an effective sheriff? And was it daughter as a high class harlot in ‘Clute’? Memory fails.

“Exciting Actress”? Have you watched any of her movies? Her dad has nothing to do with anything and your appeal to authority (real talent?) has no bearing on disgusting Hanoi Jane’s behavior other than to highlight the fact that he was clearly a failure as a parent.

She is a paid liar living in a wealth enabled fantasy world.

Jane Fonda will be 82 years old on December 21.

Jane Fonda is the human trash who deliberately caused grief, suffering and possible death for USA POWs in North Vietnam.
