Why is climate change a “crisis” but the burning of deadly chemicals is not a “code red” alert? .U.S. President Joe Biden called the climate change “crisis” an “existential threat” and a “code red.” I have no idea if he means it, or is just coddling the environmental fanatics who believe the world is going to end within a decade if global warming continues. .But Biden hasn’t said a word about the events in East Palestine, OH where a train derailment released deadly chemicals onto the ground and into the water. A controlled burn of the substances has created a black mushroom cloud over the community, releasing lethal gasses into the air, including phosgene. Phosgene, along with chlorine and mustard gas was used in the First World War to kill soldiers in great numbers. .The story itself went almost unreported for days by the U.S. national media. U.S. Transportation Sec. Pete Buttigieg, arguably the most tone deaf and out of touch cabinet member in history, is responsible for remedial action following any train derailment. He only noticed the crisis this week and sent out a reassuring tweet on Feb. 13 that he “continue[s] to be concerned” about things. .That same day, Buttigieg suggested there are too many white men in the construction trades are they are taking jobs away from people of colour. Well, there is a white male pretending to be transportation secretary who could be replaced by anybody, of any race, as long as he or she is vaguely competent. .Fox News has been somewhat attuned to events with both Tucker Carlson Tonight and Hannity running extended segments on the catastrophe. .Stephen Szekely, chief of the Mahoning County hazmat team, told Hannity correspondent Sara Carter that "the gates of hell were opened." ."I responded with Springfield Township because I'm also a volunteer fireman there. And we were one of the first mutual aid units on scene," he stated."So we were fighting the fire and it was hot, you know, and so it was a lot of fire and there's a lot of stuff going on. And it was just it was unbelievable." .Whereas the effects of climate change are largely hype — the hurricanes and storms that activists cite as evidence of global warming are actually decreasing. It is only baseless rhetoric that claims people are dying as a direct result of climate change. What is happening right now in Ohio is an environmental disaster of the kind that left-wing ecologists used to be frantic about. .Now, they can barely notice what is happening. .People of the liberal mind-set would rather try to scare you about climate change, than actually deal with real pollution. You know how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau loves to refer to carbon as a pollutant and the mainstream media gives him a pass on this. That assertion is nonsense. Carbon is not pollution. But deadly gasses are and they can make the air and the water toxic whereas carbon occurs naturally and isn’t killing anyone. .Is it because East Palestine is in a resoundingly Republican-leaning part of America? It's one of those white working class towns that are no longer of any importance to Democrats because they all voted for former President Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020. They're not sufficiently wealthy or liberal to be on the Democratic radar and so when disaster strikes, they’re not a priority. .Officials are actually telling people to go back home and that the air quality is just fine but please avoid drinking the water because it’s killing the fish. .Would you believe them? Would you trust these officials with your life? .It’s high time governments started to get serious about real pollution and stop insisting that climate change is to blame for every hurricane and even contributes to racism. .You are seeing the results of that misplaced priority over East Palestine right now.
