Billionaire U.N. climate envoy Michael Bloomerg published an opinion piece Tuesday in his eponymous Bloomberg publication that was highly critical of Republican state officials who have taken actions to protect their citizens and retirees from environmental, social, and governance (ESG) policies.
The op-ed, titled, “On Climate Change, Republicans Need a Crash Course in Capitalism,” argued that Republicans are “making a terrible mistake.”
“Republican elected officials seem to think they’ve found three new evil letters to pair with their favorite bugaboo, CRT, or critical race theory,” the former New York City mayor wrote mockingly. CRT, among other things, often teaches that White people are fundamentally racist and privileged and advocates for reverse discrimination as a way to atone for past racism.
