Chinese government officials and state-controlled media agencies have recently ramped up their rhetoric against the United States on the issue of climate change, portraying the U.S. as not doing enough to limit greenhouse emissions even though China is by far the world’s biggest polluter.
Honoré, who is founder of the environmental group Green Army, decried in the CGTN interview that a “large part” of the population in his native Louisiana denies the existence of climate change.
Honoré has been in the news recently after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi picked him to conduct a review of security failures leading up to the riots at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. Honoré, who retired from the Army in 2008, first gained national prominence for leading the disaster recovery effort following Hurricane Katrina.
Honoré posted a link to the CGTN video on his Twitter page on Sunday.
Honoré did not praise China’s response to climate change, and his remarks criticizing Americans’ views on the issue were similar to those from other environmentalists. But in giving the interview, Honoré provided fodder that China’s propaganda mills used to subtly tarnish the image of the U.S.
Pelosi selects Chinese associate to investigate riot and Trump is blamed for all when he deliberately asked that everyone there be peaceful. She invites Chinese to investigate American events Pelosi, Joe and Hunter all in the same family just different parents. When are we going to get Pelosi out anyone else including Trump was impeached, and we will wait till Pelosi dies of old age, and can still utter hate words and venom. Why are we allowing 2 women to control this country one the House of Representatives and the other the media Pelosi and Hillary.
