(CNSNews.com) - White House Science Advisor John Holdren says because of the impacts of climate change, agricultural and construction workers “will basically be unable to control their body temperature and will die.”

“In some parts of the world, when you look more broadly at this question, you see the likelihood that in the hottest times of the year it will be simply physiologically impossible to work outdoors,” Holdren said at a White House event on climate change Monday.

“That means agriculture, that means construction, people who try to work outdoors will basically be unable to control their body temperature and will die. This is a really, really big deal. And it’s going to be a big deal in the hottest parts of the United States as well as the Middle East, in South Asia and other places.”

*Whew*, I'm a recently retired construction worker, guess I dodged the bullet.

The White House says the report was developed “by approximately one hundred experts in climate-change science and public health..

Well wouldn’t it make sense that if all the farmers die, we all die??? Just sayin’.

Rural people will be alive long after all the urbanites have killed each other for the last rat burger (Demolition Man call out).

Don’t worry, John. American construction workers (Mexicans) and farmers (Mexicans) can handle it.

Sounds like this homo hasn’t spent much time on a job site or a farm. Those will be the last people left alive.

H2O: Dangerous Chemical!
A student at Eagle Rock Junior High won first prize at the Greater Idaho Falls Science Fair, April 26. He was attempting to show how conditioned we have become to alarmists practicing junk science and spreading fear of everything in our environment. In his project he urged people to sign a petition demanding strict control or total elimination of the chemical “dihydrogen monoxide.”

And for plenty of good reasons, since:

1.it can cause excessive sweating and vomiting
2.it is a major component in acid rain
3.it can cause severe burns in its gaseous state
4.accidental inhalation can kill you
5.it contributes to erosion
6.it decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes
7.it has been found in tumors of terminal cancer patients

He asked 50 people if they supported a ban of the chemical.
•Forty-three (43) said yes,
•six (6) were undecided,
•and only one (1) knew that the chemical was water.

The title of his prize winning project was, “How Gullible Are We?”

He feels the conclusion is obvious.

What a load of baloney. I worked at an aluminum smelter back in the 70’s, with summertime temps on the potline surpassing 140 degrees. Hot, hard work requires salt tablets and plenty of water. It was tough, but paid well and I was skinny.

I heard somewhere that 0bama is going to sign some climate change E.O. on Erf Day this month which will, I’m sure, screw even more Americans and businesses.

I really hesitate to use his name because it is so nefarious, but Goebbels himself would be proud of the propaganda this administration puts out.

They must die laughing as they type this stuff up.
