The Rev. Al Sharpton got all gussied up, donned a lab coat, and stood behind a nifty chemistry set to lecture the likes of Fox News, climate-change deniers, and the right wing in general on why global warming is a fact.
It happened as part of Sharpton’s “Politics Nation: Science Lab” segment on MSNBC Friday, using the arctic winter freeze besetting much of America this weekend as a springboard.
“These right wingers are boiling over with denial,” he said. “Just because it snows in winter doesn’t mean the planet isn’t getting warmer. Remember a UN panel said there’s a 90 percent probability that humans are the primary cause of global warming.”
Quote: Rufus T Firefly wrote in post #3I'm amazed that the good rev'rund Al was apparently able to string more than ten words together without uttering racist or racism.
Yeah, but think about it. The Rev. is probably ranting because snow is white, and without global warming, we won't get diversity at the Poles.
ZitatJust because it snows in winter doesn’t mean the planet isn’t getting warmer.
Does the fact that global average temps have declined for the last 17 - 20 years count ?
IF America ever returns to its senses, this will make an excellent case study in how science was railroaded by Left wing political funding.
However, the chances seem far less than 50% that we'll ever see that day.
