[ Source of the Satire (Read More…) ](Worthy Satire) – In a stunning turn of events, China has announced that it will, for the first time, vow to reduce greenhouse gas emissions — a pledge that comes only after decades of pumping out enough smoke to make the Industrial Revolution look like a backyard barbecue.
Officials in Beijing admitted that the skies might have gotten “a little hazy” after building entire megacities powered by coal plants and factories that churn out both cheap plastic and cheap coughs.
“We recognize that maybe, just maybe, we should stop making Earth look like a scene from Blade Runner,” one Chinese climate negotiator said. “We will now begin thinking about slightly reducing our output — after we finish doubling it next year.”
Environmental groups cautiously welcomed the announcement, noting it was the first time China publicly admitted that the gray fog surrounding its cities isn’t “morning mist,” but actually their own exhaust fumes.
Critics remain skeptical. “It’s like the arsonist promising to help rebuild the house,” one climate scientist said. “You burned down the planet, but sure, go ahead and hold the broom.”
