I suspect #Stellantis' CEO is (laughably) wrong about how tariffs on Chinese EVs would trigger inflation. It DOES bolster a suspicion of mine:
#China's #GreenTech industry is exploding at the same time they belch Greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.
I believe this to be ON PURPOSE.
China is flooding the atmosphere to ACCELERATE #ClimateChange while they pour BILLIONS into Green Tech in an attempt to corner the market.
Saving $ using cheap energy w/o emissions concerns is a plus.
MSM appears to be on the side of the misogynists, racists, #climatechange deniers...
AP, CBS News, & CNN failed to post on FB &/or TikTok re TFG's reported promise to reverse Biden's actions on CC as he asked oil execs to raise $1B for his campaign.

Huge jellyfish invasion could disrupt Arctic ecosystems as waters warm.
New Scientist reports: "The Arctic could see a surge of jellyfish as climate change leads to warmer waters and less ice – a process known as 'jellification.'"
>“They were falling out of the trees like apples,” Pozo said. “They were in a state of severe dehydration, and they died within a matter of minutes.” Already weakened, Pozo says the falls from dozens of yards (meters) up inflict additional damage that often finishes the monkeys off.

“Scientists can now use climate data to predict whale and sea turtle locations months in advance, helping fishing fleets avoid conflicts with wildlife.”
Stop killing people and our planet. It's well past the time to realize what our real existential crisis is: Climate change. #climatechange Dropping bombs, flying fighter jets & making weapons are extremely high greenhouse gas emission activities.

The seemingly “never-ending” rain last autumn and winter in the UK and Ireland was made 10 times more likely and 20% wetter by human-caused global warming, a study has found.
More than a dozen storms battered the region in quick succession between October and March, which was the second-wettest such period in nearly two centuries of records. #ClimateChange
"#Mangroves are threatened by deforestation, development, pollution, and dam construction, but the risk to these ecosystems is increasing due to #SeaLevelRise and the increased frequency of severe storms associated with climate change. #ClimateChange threatens one third (33%) of the mangrove ecosystems assessed."
Conservation efforts are a good investment:
"Paying local residents to plant #mangroves has raised incomes, increased fishery output, protected coastal areas, and contributed to efforts to mitigate #ClimateChange."
