Status[?]: defeated

Voting deadline: November 5047
Description[?]:
| We have to take a step back and be liberated from our ideologies, we have to ask ourselves "are we really helping normal everyday people?" I think, that we are not. We are killing our economy to achieve some magical "climate neutrality". We have to be sure that our people do not live from paycheck to paycheck, that they have food to put on a table, and so on. Our people over nature forever. Dr. Peter Sampin-Forths, Sunflower Alliance Candidate for Secretary of Health and Social Services |

| Message | Okay, here we go. Climate change is no joke, without the protection of forests the trees catch fire, if the sewage is not treated correctly the water becomes polluted and the fish too, bringing diseases and epidemics for the population, without the protection of forests many animals are killed by men and what is the government doing about it? This is not a proposal to save the economy, it is to save the radical left and discard the main problems of our current society, handing the population into the hands of denialism and promoting global warming, burning a lot of ice along with polar bears, and causing the population to catch frequent epidemics, without environmental protection. We are green, what is it? This cannot be approved if the population does not want to see the economic decline, the increase in climate change and the arrival of new epidemics, which is why we oppose to that bill. Are you guys with me? With love, to Baltusia's green parties and to the environmental movements that help strengthen the country, Leader of the Baltusian Socialist Party, His Excellency Pierre Emanuel Jean. |
