Jagger takes a piece out of Trump (environment)

Mick Jagger, who holds dual citizenship in the U.S. and UK, and who took every opportunity to slam Trump while on stage during the Stones recent 2019 No Filter tour of the U.S., is taking yet another shot at Trump--this time on Trump's gutting environmental protection regulations.
The film festival has seen protests by young environmentalists, hundreds of whom mounted a sit-in on the red carpet this weekend. When asked for his thoughts on the activists, Jagger replied, "I’m absolutely behind that. I’m glad they’re doing that because they’re the ones that are going to inherit the planet."
He then offered a criticism of the Trump administration’s climate policy, which has been marked by pulling America from the Paris climate accords and sweeping rollbacks of environmental regulations.
We are in a very difficult situation at the moment, especially in the U.S., where all the environmental controls that were put in place, that perhaps were just about adequate, say for the last ten years, have been rolled back by the current administration so much that they’re all being wiped out. The US, which should be the world leader in environmental control, has lost that and has decided to go the other way.

Yep, Jagger is my go to source for political insight and climate science. A well earned reputation for such institutions is a list where his name is at the tippy top.

He's a better source than where you get
your information from (4chan), but even more important is that he's old enough to have personally witnessed actual climate transitions since the time of the Medieval Warm Period.

So it's true. You're illiterate.

Yes, he has witnessed it. Thank the lawd for their carbon-neutral tours (insert corporate sponsor here) because that is just as good as knowing what you are talking about.

Naw, I can read the word "groupie" and "Fan
atic" for you when you struggle with those bigger words.

Naw, my initial post on this thread still stands...clear and without reasonable rebuttal.
But please, keep explaining how you take your science and environmental cues from Mick Jagger....because "he's seen some stuff".

Awesome. You’re
going all in on your comprehension failure. It’s like a replay of your
western liberalism gaffe.
I don’t think that your reading skills quite measure up to the level that you think they do. ; )
