Another day, another Thanksgiving hot-take, this time from ThinkProgress:
Six ways to climate-proof your Thanksgiving https://t.co/ZAWcmPPdyY pic.twitter.com/ge1veaQqLz

Oh, come on!
We’ll save you a click: 1. Buy a local turkey, 2. Save the leftovers (who doesn’t do this?), 3. drink alcohol only from companies that embrace renewable energy, 4. travel by bus, 5. spend lots of money making your home more energy efficient, and 6. annoy your relatives and “talk about it.”
Now, after reading these six things, does “climate-proof” really fit? Party of science at work:
"climate-proof" Words no longer mean things. https://t.co/5yNsSnKygx

If you buy a turkey raised near where you live, the weather will get cooler. THIS IS SCIENCE!!! https://t.co/5Y3F2rme14

Step 1: don't travel or eat anything.
Step 2: enjoy step 1. https://t.co/73tGlXGNRi

@thinkprogress If you /actually/ want to climate-proof your Thanksgiving, become a vegan and spend Thanksgiving blocking a gas station.

I think I'd rather kill myself than spend Thanksgiving with a progressive. https://t.co/GSVGOZPCUM

We'll idle all our cars while we deep fry our dozen turkeys. Maybe burn some tires just for ambiance! https://t.co/SvAUixKonP

Don't stuff your turkey with, coal, dine with others via Skype, and limit gassy foods? How did I do? https://t.co/gqin2ItyJp

Anyone think liberalism is not a disease? This is what complete douchebaggery it has brought. https://t.co/P1RJ88q30H

With the other “Turkey” in the news, you know — trying to start WWII and all — we wonder if this climate alarmism will really sell?
This is the only Turkey "@ThinkProgress" is worried about. #ClimateChange is a graver threat than WW3. https://t.co/zGXhTLvmKP

@ProgDisorder @thinkprogress And you wonder why #climatechange alarmists have failed to win the hearts and minds of America.
