If the WEF and the UN get what they want, then I guess we "rubes" really aren't smart enough to manage our own lives.

There is a huge problem with 1) lack of public awareness and 2) lack of will to push back against the WEF/UN agenda. We have a very apathetic attitude toward politics here in Australia, but on top of that, most people are so consumed with earning enough to pay for housing, food and bills that they don't have enough energy to get informed and take action on matters that have a huge impact not just on them, but their children and grandchildren.

Worse yet, SO2 from coal plants can and do round out the dust nuclei that brings rain to the Western USA, reducing rain events by as much as 40%

Are they not using scrubbers to control SO2 emissions?

If it's like the scoundrels here, they say they are but when the EPA isn't looking they have been known to shut the scrubbers down to save money. How do I know? I had one air quality engineer blurt out that at one plant they maintained two sets of books. Turned the company in to the EPA (I was LE at thetime) and they paid close to a quarter million for the fine.

So, the fines are basically a cost of doing business for the power plant operators, just like for Big Pharma. All of these supposed consumer protection agencies have been captured. I wonder if toxic tort is the way to go?

Not really. This has been skulldruggery at the high court. See the studies on corporate personhood and the 14th. Associate Justice William O'Douglas had much to say on the issue in his dissenting opinions. Had we had a Constitutional Convention, We the People would have put the kabosh to our corporate overlords a long long time ago. Corporations were never meant to have unlimited lifespans and unlimited power to lie, cheat and steal with impunity. The WEF will only solidify their power globally.

Abolishing the legal fiction of corporate personhood would be one of the most impactful moves that could be made to push back against the predator class.

I thought the Chinese breathed a different atmosphere to us .... isn't that why we can shut our coal stations but keep exporting coal to China ?

Nah, it's just that when the Chinese burn coal, it doesn't hurt Mother Earth the way it does when people with white privilege burn it.
