In the world of green elitist humor can supply a stinging truth.
John Kerry stated recently that global warming from air conditioning units posed a greater threat to the world than ISIS. I guess he’s forgotten about millions of lives that have been saved, particularly in areas of the globe that experience life threatening high temps, because of the creation of air conditioning units.
In response to this outlandish assertion, an online petition has been created that’s gotten over 1800 signatures since it was posted Sunday night:
The petition states:
“WHEREAS, Secretary of State John F. Kerry has suggested that air conditioners are as big a threat as ISIS, and WHEREAS, it is the duty of our elected and appointed government officials to lead by example, THEREFORE, we call upon the U.S. Department of State to remove air conditioning from all property that the Department owns, rents, or otherwise employs, including but not limited to embassies, consulates, office buildings, etc., all vehicles owned and/or operated by the Department, and any other property, real or movable, owned, rented, or otherwise employed by the Department.”
The creator of this petition is someone called, “Hopalong Ginsberg,” at Change.org.
Grand idea…stinging truth. Air conditioning is not a greater threat than ISIS. It IS a great benefit to humans of all races and creeds across the planet.
Lurch also included refrigerators in his list of transgressors, therefore all ‘fridges and bar storage units should be removed.
Just look at all that hot air the a/c has to convert now – what an energy-saving idea! Let’s include a/c on the airplanes that ferry Lurch & Co on the removal list as well.
Lurch is an example of political hot airthat is much more damaging than all of the a/c and fridge units put together!
The petition now has more than 5,000 signatures. Word is spreading!
Thank you Willis Carrier.

Nice find RHT, I really appreciate this inventor, even right now as temps move towards 100 and beyond.
American entrepreneurial invention at it’s finest.
We haven’t used our air conditioner at home in several years thanks to the extremist greens/nuclear fear mongers who first cut the feet out from under nuclear energy and then later has done everything they can to make fossil fuel use cost prohibitive for many consumers.
Yes boys and girls the electricity to run that air conditioner comes from natural gas, petroleum, or coal. Neither sun nor wind can produce enough to eliminate these fuels and offer assist only to the degree that they are heavily subsidized. In California PG&E, the greens, and our government sell their environmental plans as doing Californians a big favor. What they don;t tell us is what they have done together to make the cost of energy unnecessarily high!
Good businesses operate on the notion of bringing the best product at the lowest possible price.
Green tech is just the opposite. They want to discourage energy use and so don’t care if products are inferior, cost more to consumers, and play fast and loose with our comfort or the lives of old folks, children, and the disabled Following the Popes green encyclical Cory Franklin wrote the following in the Chicago Tribune:
This nation can deliver inexpensive energy to American homes. all we need is the political will to get it done. Progressive Democrats will never get it done. They say they care but in reality they only care about their agenda de jour…the thing they believe will keep them in power.
This nation can also deliver cleaner air and cleaner water as we have been doing since the early seventies. If we get government control, collusion with corporate and special interests, out of the way it will happen and it will happen fast.
Long live men like Willis Carrier, and the men and women that invested in the development of that product!
And long live the free market.

“Long live men like Willis Carrier, and the men and women that invested in the development of that product!”
Shame that none … none … of them who produce the product live in America.
Bugger the free market, the shareholders, and the management of Carrier.
Also their bankers !
Whose bankers?
WaPO:
And then there’s this:
Read that full article based on the book, “All the Presidents’ Bankers,” by Naomi Prins . It’s an education.
Bugger liberal regulation.
Bugger liberal high taxation.
Bugger union demands that are unreasonable and unsustainable.
Bugger progressive inflationary policies making our dollars worth less.
Bugger progressives and their meddling ways.
Bugger that and the jobs will come home!
I have fallen countless times in the language department and shall endeavor to keep from falling again, butt do ya’ll know what “bugger” means?
But it’s British, and thereby classy profanity.
Carrier’s bankers.
And we know all about Hillary and her bankers. Why do you think those Bernie people are making so much noise?
