Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez announced her genius plan to solve the climate crisis this week: forcibly removing the 'off' switch from thermostats and other temperature-controlling devices.

At her press conference, Ocasio-Cortez said, "For too long, people have had too much control over their own temperature! Freedom of choice isn't freedom when it comes to this, my friends; it's tyranny against the planet. We must take drastic measures to ensure that people are not able to turn down their thermostats and oppress their environments." She went on to explain that the plan would reduce global warming through the power of pure inertia, since people would have no way to turn off the heat when it wasn't necessary. She also suggested that thermostats, instead of showing off/on buttons, should display "High/Higher" buttons for added efficiency.
