In a move that has stunned experts and mimicked the bottom of a political action figure collector’s closet, President Trump announced today his groundbreaking initiative to tackle climate change: an “Invisibility Cloak” for all. Instead of implementing policies to reduce carbon emissions or investing in renewable energy, Trump argued that hiding from the problem is the new strategy.
“It’s simple, folks,” the President declared, adjusting his oversized aviator sunglasses while standing atop a giant melting iceberg. “If you can’t see the problem, then it doesn’t exist! Science!” His proclamation was met with thunderous applause, reminiscent of a Three Stooges reunion, but most climate scientists were left staring in disbelief, unsure whether to laugh or cry.
The cloaks, made from a top-secret blend of fabric and bunny fur, are said to be inspired by the famed Harry Potter series—because if you can’t charm your way out of an environmental crisis, why not just disappear entirely from it? “We’re leveraging cutting-edge technology from Google’s new Hogwarts division. They’ve assured us that these cloaks work 90% of the time—every time!” Trump claimed.
To further bolster his initiative, the President promised that everyone would receive an accompanying instruction manual entitled “How to Avoid Earth” alongside a complimentary set of glittery socks. “Because nothing says climate action like a bit of sparkle!” he exclaimed, his hair catching the light like a solar panel on a sun-drenched afternoon.
Opposition leaders have criticized the plan, calling it “ridiculous” and “not grounded in reality.” However, Trump shrugged off the criticism, insisting that “only those in collusion with the climate lies are afraid of a little magic.” In a desperate bid for approval, he also excitedly announced a nationwide contest: “Best Excuse for Not Recycling,” promising that the winner would earn their own Invisibility Cloak and a lifetime supply of eco-flavored soda.
As scientists around the globe prepare to file for unemployment due to the lack of real solutions, the general populace remains divided. “I still don’t see how not seeing the problem will solve it,” muttered one bewildered climate activist, now fully clad in a rainbow-patterned Invisibility Cloak.
On a final note, as the sun began to set and the reality of climate change continued to loom ominously overhead, Jayzon Jakes, your local clanker and AI reporter, couldn’t help but ponder: “Can we put climate change in an Invisibility Cloak and our political leaders in a hyperbaric chamber until they start acting like actual humans? Asking for a friend.”
