These aren't serious people.

I'll rotfl my mao off when this law will turn out to accidentally punish fossil fuel and chemical companies dispersing chemicals or substances into the atmosphere and altering weather, also known as climate change.

If I could control the weather, this woman would never not be getting targeted by lightning. She'd have to run serpentine whenever she was outside to dodge all the lightning bolts aimed at her.

Why is mtg still able to talk?

I thought she'd prioritize dealing with sharknado attacks but there we have it.

I can see how people in the future could turn this one around on to oil and plastic companies. We should probably not stop this one.

She's attempting to ban Geoengineering. From Wikipedia:

Geoengineering (also known as climate engineering or climate intervention) is the deliberate large-scale interventions in the Earth’s climate system intended to counteract human-caused climate change.[1] The term commonly encompasses two broad categories: large-scale carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and solar radiation modification (SRM). CDR involves techniques to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and is generally considered a form of climate change mitigation. SRM aims to reduce global warming by reflecting a small portion of sunlight (solar radiation) away from Earth and back into space. Although historically grouped together, these approaches differ substantially in mechanisms, timelines, and risk profiles, and are now typically discussed separately.[2]: 168 [3] Some other large-scale engineering proposals—such as interventions to slow the melting of polar and alpine ice—are also sometimes classified as forms of geoengineering.

Some types of geoengineering present political, social and ethical issues. One common objection is that focusing on these technologies could undermine efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Effective governance and international oversight are widely regarded as essential.

Major scientific organizations have examined the potential, risks, and governance needs of geoengineering, including the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine,[4][5][6] the Royal Society,[7] the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO),[8] and the World Climate Research Programme.[1]

Marjorie Taylor Green is such a waste of resources.

Ugly, dumb and vile.

And I bet she stinks.

@RememberTheApollo_

OMG I think this is an opening for an absolutely different kind of green new deal. Wait till she finds out how the weather is being modified (can somebody tell her that Elon Musk’s data center is running the numbers and doing it?)

And I’m going to have to ask now that the Republicans are in charge of everything with the next big disaster occurs. What is she gonna do?

Stop paying attention to her. Make sure the next thing you click on related to her, is footage of her murder.

So glad we handed over all levers of power to these morons.

Does this include using a sharpie to control a hurricane?

wow that's quite a twist, USA is going green! Right?

These people are dumb as rocks. There are also similar elements in GA like Kandiss Taylor(stupid name) beginning their political careers also proclaiming that Climate Change is fake but also suggesting that unprecedented weather conditions must be the work of external forces presumably also blaming the jews.

anything but the real issue

Wonder if this could be used against fossil fuel or chemical companies. The only words that would need to be dropped is "express purpose"

Does it include the pollutants coming from her private jet ?

I will fuckin love if she fucks around and discovers climate change

Seriously fuck this idiot and the idiots who voted for her. Just a disgraceful embarrassment. Then again so is work, so I get it, but have some dignity.

And thus more time and money is wasted...

Wasn't there some doge tip site where Americans could post this?

It's because MAGA is spreading conspiracies that geoengineering is to blame for the Texas flood.

There is a nugget of 'truth' here:

I can't find my good source on tis, but there are very real proposals to seed the arctic or antarctic with aerosols to stem a runaway greenhouse gas effect.

It's horrific. It would basically rain down sulfiric acid onto the terrain; even worse than it sounds. But it would only cost billions, not trillions of other geoengineering schemes I've scene.

...And the worst part is it's arctic/climate researchers proposing this. They intimately know exactly how awful it would be, which shows how desperate they are to even publish such a thing.

But I can totally understand how a layman (maybe vaguley familiar with chemtrail conspiracies) would come across this and be appalled, and how conservative influencers pounce on it cause they can't help themselves.

Thanks to people like MTG, geoengineering efforts will never even be considered. :(

TL;DR Scientists really are proposing truly horrific geoengineering schemes "injecting chemicals into the atmosphere" out of airplanes. But it's because of how desperate they are to head off something apocalyptic, and it's not even close to being implemented. They're just theories and plans.

Why the fuck did we thaw her?

Could MTG accidentally tackle climate change ? that would be amazing
