6 funniest climate change denials of 2015

[billvon 3,131]

Adapted from a list from Media Matters:

6. Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) brings a snowball onto the Senate floor to dispute the scientific finding that 2014 was the warmest year on record. FOX commentary: "Well that's Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe using a snowball on the floor of the Senate to make his point about global climate change. The whole country seems to be blanketed in the white stuff. This, during global warming."

5. National Review changes the Y-axis of a temperature chart to minimize changes, claims that, if published, "the climate change crusaders would be out of business instantly."

4. Michael Savage claims the Pope has been "Hand-Selected By The New World Order" and is a "Danger To The World" for acting on climate change.

3. Wall Street Journal links bacon study to climate change. They claimed that the World Health Organization's announcement linking red and processed meats to cancer "seems particularly well timed" to coincide with the United Nations climate negotiations in Paris, and claimed that "the widely publicized warning about meat isn't about health. It's about fighting global warming."

2. Investor's Business Daily claims that the "EPA Regulations Are 'Jim Crow' Laws Of 21st Century." They quote a Heartland Institute article that uses a (proven false) study to claim that EPA changes harm minorities.

1. Limbaugh claims that discovery of water on Mars is part of the "climate change conspiracy." NASA is "making up something that happened on Mars that will help advance their left-wing agenda on this planet" . . . "I would assume it would be something to do with global warming."

Okay, so the climate change heretics are shitheads, we get it.

This does not, however, mean that the climate change true believers are shitheads to any lesser extent. Al Gore is a both a classic case of von Moeltke's energetic and stupid officer and a poster child for the Dunning Kruger effect.

Does humanity have an effect on climate? Most assuredly.

Is climate change the most significant issue we face? Not by a long shot. If climate change was the worst of our problems, we would be in fantastic shape, relatively speaking.

Touting climate change as the penultimate challenge to our species is on a par with focusing on hemorrhoids among hospice patients. It is a sign of terminal cluelessness.

Alarmist Assertion #3

“National Security Threatened – The impacts of climate change are expected to act as a ‘threat multiplier’ in many of the world’s most unstable regions, exacerbating droughts and other natural disasters as well as leading to food, water and other resource shortages that may spur mass migrations.”

this one ranks right up there too

Quote

Alarmist Assertion #4

“Sea Levels Rising – Warmer temperatures are causing glaciers and polar ice sheets to melt, increasing the amount of water in the world’s seas and oceans.”

"America will never be destroyed from the outside,
if we falter and lose our freedoms,
it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
Abraham Lincoln

>Alarmist Assertion #3 - National Security Threatened

I guess the Pentagon is the latest evil liberal organization to have the alarmist label placed on them by the right wing. I suspect they'll be able to live with that.

>Alarmist Assertion #4 - Sea Levels Rising – Warmer temperatures are causing
>glaciers and polar ice sheets to melt, increasing the amount of water in the
>world’s seas and oceans.”

Yep. Here are some more evil liberal alarmist memes to fight:

Alarmist Assertion #5 - temperatures are increasing worldwide. This comes from stupid scientists who parrot the lies of thermometers.

Alarmist Assertion #6 - overexposure to the sun can cause skin cancer. This comes from ivory tower medical types who want you to panic and give more money to sunscreen, umbrella and window tint companies. Follow the money!

Alarmist Assertion #7 - eating too much junk food and not exercising enough can make you fat. This comes from effete Perrier-sipping joggers who want to destroy the American snack food and couch industries.
