The fake title
of this article,
is what the two
U.S. TV stations,
CNN and MSNBC,
would have claimed,
in my opinion,
if Donald Trump had
accidentally brushed
Greta Thunberg's
shoulder as he
walked by her.
Reality is that President
Trump, who knows next
to nothing about climate
science personally,
read a speech at Davos
that made good points
about climate science.
I know Trump didn't
write the speech,
but by reading it,
he sounded like
the most sane person
in Davos, Switzerland
on the subject
of climate science.
The least sane
person at Davos,
The 50th World
Economic Forum,
was Greta
"thundering"
Thunberg,
the subject
of the next
article here,
( only because of
the great attention
the leftist media
gives her ).

The World Economic Forum
in Davos, Switzerland this year
- 50th anniversary -
( I call it the annual
convocation of oiligarchs )
3,000 of the world's richest
and most powerful people !
From 120 countries !
1,700 business leaders !
Including CEOs
from 8 of the 10
most valuable
countries.
The event ran for four days,
and included more than
350 sessions and workshops.
President Trump and
teen climate activist
Greta Thunberg
were set to
cross paths.
Greta Thunberg,
age 17,
once again
shamed
world leaders
(except Xi Jinping, of China)
into abandoning
fossil fuels
and committing
taxpayer dollars
to "clean energy"
initiatives.
Last year, Thunberg told
Davos participants that
"our house is on fire,"
This year President Trump
confronted the climate
alarmism of Greta Thunberg,
AOC, and the 'Extinction
Rebellion' nuts,
within his speech.
Climate change
seems to be
the favorite topic
at an event where
hundreds of attendees
flew in on private jets.
PRESIDENT TRUMP
This year
President Trump
President Trump
bragged that the
American energy
revolution is saving
the average American
family more than
$2,000 a year.
I find that number
too high to believe.
I do know $2,000 a year
does NOT include
huge investments in the
U.S. shale oil and gas
industry that lowered
our oil and gas prices.
Those investments
will eventually cost
investors hundreds
of billions of dollars
in stock and bond
losses, as more
and more U.S.
and more U.S.
shale industry
companies head
into bankruptcy.
Trump said he would
preserve the environment
in a practical way,
saying his administration is
"committed to conserving
the majesty of God's creation
and the natural beauty
of our world...today
I'm pleased to announce
that the US will join
the one trillion trees
initiative announced
here at the World
Economic Forum."
Trump's Environmental
Protection Agency
( launched under
Republican
President Nixon )
President Nixon )
still considers
the staff of life
on our planet,
carbon dioxide,
to be a pollutant
(aka "The Endangerment Finding").
But Trump does have
good instincts -- he senses
that scary climate change
claims are grossly exaggerated.
In his speech, Trump cited
examples of environmental
alarmist predictions that
have been consistently
wrong for many decades.
wrong for many decades.
"This is not a time
for pessimism,
for pessimism,
this is a time
for optimism.
for optimism.
Fear and doubt
is not a
good process
good process
... to embrace the
possibilities
of tomorrow
of tomorrow
we must reject
the perennial
profits of doom
and their warnings
about the apocalypse.
They are the
heirs of yesterday's
foolish fortune tellers
... they want to see
us do badly, but we
won't let that happen.
They predicted an
overpopulation crisis
in the 1960s,
mass starvation
in the 70s, and
the end of oil
in the 1990s.
These alarmists
always demand
the same thing --
absolute power to
dominate, transform
and control
every aspect
of our lives.
We will never let
radical socialists
destroy our economy,
wreck our country
or eradicate our liberty.
America will always be
the proud, strong and
unwielding bastion
of freedom."
Trump ended his speech
with a look toward the future:
"We continue
to embrace technology,
not to shun it."
"When people
are free to innovate,
millions will live longer,
happier, healthier lives."
Anybody
who doubts
who doubts
the prospects
of the future
"need only look
at the towering
achievements
of the past,"
Trump said.
