Talk about a pet peeve. The climate alarmists have come for your pets. No, really. A new report from Vox.com is now urging the public to consider offering a home to other pets besides dogs and cats. Why?
The report says their respective diets and lifestyles contribute to global warming for various reasons. In addition, the toilet needs of contemporary dogs include the use of pastel-colored poop bags while cats visit litter boxes where the filler is not necessarily made of natural, eco-friendly materials like wood shavings.
“Are our pets gobbling up the planet? From the meat-based meals to kitty litter to plastic poop bags, pet care is unarguably bad for the environment,” Vox said, offering ways to reduce pets’ carbon pawprint and citing the perils of pet waste — equivalent to “the annual trash of 6.6 million humans.”
Control is control is control.
Welcome to the age of the pandemic puppyhood.
“Climate activists are now trying to cancel pets. Pet Police have arrived,” writes Marc Morano, founder of ClimateDepot.com, an admirable news site which chronicles climate activism.
What is amusing is these same people derided the Trump Whitehouse for being petless and yet fawn over the Biden Whitehouse for hosting two dogs and a potential cat.

Let’s not forget that Biden’s dogs were so poorly trained that they keep biting WH staff.
Instincts overrode training.
We could compensate for our Mastiff’s appetite by eliminating a couple warmists.
Gives new meaning to the term, ‘carbon offsets.’
Imagine the congested and environmentally friendly city of Dogtopia, where plastic poop bags are banned, and thousands of dog owners freely allow their pets to defecate on city sidewalks and concrete pathways in parks, where fences prevent access to vegetated areas. In Dogtopia, pedestrians must always look at the ground before them every few steps, lest they step in brown mush leaving them smelling like a dog the rest of the day.
If Dogtopia sounds like a nightmare, it also exists in reality, otherwise known as Paris.
Maybe that’s why Paris makes lots of perfume, to cover up the smell of dog poop on people’s shoes!
On the verge of a phobic disorder with unreasonable fear. Here they are reaping the benefits of the modern world and fearing it. They have attacked the livestock industry and now they have come after Snoopy the dog and Sylvester the cat.
Be very careful your pet Beetle may be next.
It’s happening in the UK, also.

Don’t mess with our dogs!
Dogs are our children!
Slightly OT — I wish they would declare war on all the parents who have decided they need to drive their kids to and from school every day, instead of letting them walk or take the school bus. Where I live, every afternoon there are long lines of cars, many with their engines running, waitng to pick up kids from school. If they tried to stop this practice, it would turn into “revenge of the soccer moms” — it would put an end to the end of the “war against global warming” forever.
How can we push the greenies into banning parents from driving their kids to and from school? Perhaps we could get an article into VOX.
I suspect that if you just start saying this on social media it’ll take on a life of its own. I don’t do any social media, so can’t help.
I remember back in the day when I used to have to commute to work, how very much better the traffic was in school holidays. The effect on everyone caused by school runs is massive. It should be banned! Why are they afraid to let their kids take the bus? It worked for us as kids.
Vox seems blissfully unaware that dog poop will become compost much faster than orange peels. I doubt that the writers at Vox have ever tried to compost anything.
Can I invite Jennifer to get acquainted with my neighbour’s two pitbulls? Then we can see who is going to be cancelled.
My tomcat actually likes Royal Canine, especially if followed by Perfect Portions and fresh salmon slices. I really wonder who is actually in charge!
This does not look good for Buckingham’s Royal Corgi’s , I’ll say!
The Queen is no longer breeding her corgis. She doesn’t want any to outlive her. As if she will ever die, anyway, a real “long live the Queen!”
Has any one told Greta about this?
That’s the first picture of her I’ve seen smiling. We have to take those dogs away immediately!
Right about the smiling 😂

I warned of this yesterday: “Story after story, covering medicine, weather, ecology, biology, psychology, emigration, international conflict and pet care, all converge on the single story-line that there is an ongoing, ever-present terrifyingly dangerous Climate Crisis, affecting every aspect of human existence. “

Interesting talk about the evolution of dogs from wolves in the order of 20k years ago. Also on the project breeding tame silver foxes in Siberia.

Does this mean the price of pure bred Samoyeds will come down? Because if so, cancel away. I really want one.
Anyone else remember prohibition in the US? Not that I’m that old, however if I recall correctly, it was another feel good measure that, actually had to be implemented to see just how bad of an idea it really was.
Not all precautionary measures are as good in practice as they sound in principle.
