Each of the couple dozen Democrats who will be running for that party’s presidential nomination will have their own plan to address what they say is an existential threat to humanity, and the Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke campaign is no different:

.@BetoORourke just released a climate change plan aimed at eliminating carbon emissions by 2050. Here's a 5-page fact sheet from his campaign. ?https://t.co/WgVqXvX8Gv — Sahil Kapur (@sahilkapur) April 29, 2019

Al Gore’s “ten years to act or else” warning expired about three years ago, but the goalposts keep getting moved:

.@BetoORourke out w/ a $5 trillion plan to stop the climate from changing. But if the world’s ending in 11.5 years, why just $5 trillion? https://t.co/Y0XWpdxJPp — Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) April 29, 2019

By 2050? Wait…

Isn't that 20 years too late? https://t.co/JAd3E0vXYb — Michael K Pate (@michaelkpate) April 29, 2019

He knows we only have 11 years right? https://t.co/2MGMLNBNkb — Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) April 29, 2019

This is not a serious proposal. I searched it for "cow": ZERO mentions. — Jeryl Bier (@JerylBier) April 29, 2019

LOL!

O’Rourke needs to get with AOC on this one.

I thought we were all dead in 12 years? These guys need to get their timeline right, I have plans to make! https://t.co/VKlnWHDUKe — kyle j hunt (@kylejhunt) April 29, 2019

But we’ll be dead in a dozen years — Mauty480 (@Mauty480) April 29, 2019

He must not have received the message, we're all dead in 11 years and 6 months. — Mike Lawry (@MikeLawry126) April 29, 2019

LOL fixing the world after it's gone, only a skateboarding-furry would come up with this. — MN Matt (@ShoeInTheBox) April 29, 2019

Maybe the O’Rourke campaign should take a page from AOC and put out its own FAQ to straighten out any confusion.
