The Nightmare Is “Only Just Beginning”

“If you thought the nightmare was going to end once the coronavirus scare passed, think again: it’s only just beginning. The greens and the globalists aren’t about to let a crisis go to waste. This is the moment they have been waiting for. And don’t expect much resistance from politicians—even ones wearing the ‘Conservative’ label, like Boris Johnson. They’re part of the problem.”

—James Delingpole in May 202058

So climate activists took notes as they saw COVID-19 cause a near-total shutdown of the evil modern life they wage war on and essentially shut down the world economy overnight.

Christiana Figueres noted that slower economic growth from lockdowns “may be good for climate,” explaining, “There is less trade, less travel, less commerce.”56 She claimed we need to “converge the solutions” to coronavirus and climate “because what we cannot afford to do is to jump out of the frying pan of COVID and into the raging fire of climate change.”57

Progressive environmentalists lauded the lockdowns as having “ecological benefits” but lamented that they were not in control of the shutdown. Jason Hickel, a lecturer in economic anthropology at Goldsmiths University and member of the advisory board of the Green New Deal for Europe, explained his thoughts on COVID and climate in April 2020: “When you do scale down energy use and industrial production then it does have these ecological benefits but the crucial thing to observe here is that this is happening in an unplanned, chaotic way which is hurting peoples’ lives. We would never advocate for such a thing in climate policy. What we need is a planned approach to reducing unnecessary industrial activity that has no connection to human welfare and that also disproportionately benefits already wealthy people as opposed to ordinary people.”
