If the left wants to harness their energy with 24/7 campaigns convincing Americans that the situation is dire and catastrophic and place the blame on the individual, then they have the ability to do so and they have the blueprint to do so successfully.
Once they are ready, in the coming years, they will transition to this. Think RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA, but for Climate Emergencies. Think non-stop propaganda that fools good and decent people into siding with them.
You think we already have that? Then you don't understand my comment. You haven't seen anything yet. The left can and will go much further than they are now with this.
In Europe, they already give companies "emission allowances" of a certain number of tons of carbon dioxide per year. If they go over they have to pay one way or another.
This will be pushed onto individuals. All activities will be monitored for "greenhouse gas" emissions, and a tax penalty will be applied. They'll get both of their totalitarian fantasies: total 100% surveillance of every breath and every step of every person, and the ability to impose massive taxes on literally breathing air, walking, and eating. Every food you eat and its quantity will have a "CO2 equivalent" value assigned to it. That's just one example. They'll do this to every thing a person can do.
You'll need to fill out a form on a smartphone app to get permission to leave your house for any reason.
There is a novel about the picture you are describing in its mature form, further down the road, presumably after several generations have been fully brainwashed into this system. Agenda 21

I agree and the blueprint is covid.
