NBC News has decided that in order to save our climate from ourselves, confessing our climate change sins is just the ticket.
“Even those who care deeply about the planet’s future can slip up now and then. Tell us: Where do you fall short in preventing climate change? Do you blast the A/C? Throw out half your lunch? Grill a steak every week? Share your anonymous confession with NBC News.”
Yes indeed. NBC News believes that outing our bad selves, anonymously of course, is one of THE VERY BEST ways to save our planet.
This folks, shows just how absurd the climate hysteria has gotten.
Bless me, NBC, for I have sinned. It has been never since my last climate confession.
I…I use imported Wagyu steaks to power my AC, which is kept at a cool -12 degrees.
I steal plastic bottles from my neighbors just to NOT recycle them. I am truly sorry for these vile acts!

I flew across the Atlantic on a private plane, was picked up by a helicopter and delivered to my awaiting yacht in the Mediterranean so I could attend a climate change summit. Oh wait.. That was *insert celebrity name here.

Yes, I’d say that NBC’s attempt at shaming us is has become one massive FAIL. Doubt me? Check out these screen shots of confessions.
Yes, the responses are funny as hell. But even more so it shows that many are incredibly tired of this climate change hysteria. Many of us, myself included, have had enough of the lectures from our celebrity betters and snot nosed kids who are being enabled and led by leftists with an agenda. I also believe, as do others, that the Green New Deal is a cow-farting, plane destroying money grabbing load of horse shit.
All those great and wonderful windmills dotting our landscape? They have a 20 year shelf life and are impossible to recycle.
How about all the trash in the ocean that is dumped by the biggest polluters of all – yes, I’m looking at China.
“”If you were sailing across the ocean and you’re picking up trash along the way, and for every piece of trash you pick up there is a boat right next to you dumping out five pieces. How would that make you feel?” Graves asked the teen activist, who traveled to the United States by boat to reduce her carbon footprint.
“Well, first of all, by that logic then I am also dumping a lot of trash in the ocean,” Thunberg responded. “And then I would stop dumping my trash in the ocean and ask the other boat to stop dumping their trash in the ocean as well.””
Oopsie! Did Greta just admit to dumping trash on her journey to the U.S.? Sure seems like it!
How about those electric cars? Even with consistent charging, the batteries aren’t infinite. Eight years is pretty much the average. Are they recyclable? Well…it depends upon who you ask. Meanwhile, are electric vehicles all that “green?” Not really given many of the components, especially the batteries are comprised of rare earth metals. Super green? NOT!
Greta orders us to listen to the science.
And NBC wants to shame us into falling into lockstep with the climate hysterics.
I CONFESS!!
In the last week I’ve eaten steak twice, lamb once, and bison last night.
I CONFESS!!
We keep our A/C at 70 degrees in the summer and 73 in the winter.
I CONFESS!!
We have a gas cooktop and by damn, we will KEEP our gas cooktop thankyouverymuch.
I CONFESS!!
I despise LED lightbulbs, hate low flush toilets, and waste water by rinsing our dishes before putting them in the dishwasher.
I CONFESS!!
To using plastic and not giving a damn.
See? I confessed! Do I get a prize?
Memo to NBC: Please take your climate change confessional and stuff it.
Welcome Instapundit Readers!

I’m a vegan once removed: I only eat animals that eat plants. Well, also omnivores, because pork and chicken are so tasty.
My sin: I used an entire roll of 12 ply toilet paper today.
I work for an enterprise that cuts down forest to turn into massive amounts of paper sheets printed with false and misleading stories, and try to shame people into buying this bit of natural destruction on a daily basis.
Wait, that’s not me- that’s the New York Times.
I earned a good living moving coal,lots of coal, one and a half miles long and twenty thousand tons pulled by three or four huge diesel electric locomotives spewing tons of hydro carbon , coal that was loaded onto huge ships spewing more diesel exhaust and transported to China, the worst climate raping country in the world and I do not feel any remorse at all!
Burgers. Grilled over charcoal, with about four feet of fresh rosemary sprigs from the garden. Dead chickens ditto. I drive miles in my pick up truck to buy it all, except the rosemary, and I’d buy that too but I planted the stuff years ago and it grows faster than I can burn it, so PLEASE FORGIVE ME, GAIA.
No. Wait. Forget that last. Charcoal grilling cow frags and dismembered chickens is good for the soul. Gaia: sod off. If Al Gore can have a gigantic house and flit from Climate Party to Climate Party in private jets and SUVs, and the LightBringer can buy a $15,000,000 summer cottage on a sandpit he claimed will be washed away, and he flits from Climate Party to Climate Party in private jets, and Bernie can in good conscience have three houses, I’ll enjoy burgers and dead chickens without the slightest guilt.
I power my steam powered car with whale oil. It is a natural renewable energy source.
Only if hunted via organically sourced sailing ships.
I confess: I am helping to feed my massive green acreage by providing natural carbon via cows and goats for those plants to thrive. And then I create MORE carbon by composting everything (Thank you, David the Good) and feeding it to the plants.
Oh Woe!
Who could be opposed to clean burning lamp oil?
Whales are renewable!
