Need a reason to support global warmism? OK, how about ‘fossil fuels are racist’?
By LU Staff June 26, 2016
A notorious Socialist, social activist and author claimed the reason governments don’t take global warming seriously is because the fossil fuel industry benefits from “institutional racism.”
Author and anti-capitalist activist Naomi Klein wrote in an editorial published by Australian newspaper The Saturday Paper that politicians don’t discuss global warming because they are part of racist and bigoted governmental institutions that allow fossil fuel industry to exploit blacks and Latinos.
The editorial was part of an edited extract from an Edward W. Said London Lecture 2016 June 2.
In the piece, Klein writes that for the past 30 years governments have refused to lower greenhouse gas emissions despite knowing the dangers. The reason they ignore possible calamity is racism.
“It would have been impossible without all the potent tools on offer that allow the powerful to discount the lives of the less powerful,” she writes, referring to the instruments oil companies supposedly use when producing energy. The fossil fuel industry is able to use tools of “institutional racism” to rank people in accordance to their “relative value” as human beings.
The “dirty” and “toxic” nature of coal and other fossil fuels, she adds, “require sacrificial people and places: people whose lungs and bodies can be sacrificed to work in the coalmines, people whose lands and water can be sacrificed to open-pit mining and oil spills.”
