Al Gore will host canceled climate change summit

Climate activist and former vice president Al Gore is teaming up with the American Public Health Association and other organizations to hold a summit on climate change and health that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention canceled earlier this week.

The CDC quietly called off the summit after President Trump's inauguration, telling reporters it was "exploring options to reschedule the meeting." The scientific community has accused CDC officials of canceling the event out of fear of the Trump administration.

The CDC falls under the Department of Health and Human Services, and Trump has nominated Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.), who has expressed skepticism about the scientific consensus on climate change, to lead the department.

“They tried to cancel this conference but it is going forward anyway,” Gore said in a statement on the event. “Today we face a challenging political climate, but climate shouldn’t be a political issue. Health professionals urgently need the very best science in order to protect the public, and climate science has increasingly critical implications for their day-to-day work.

Al Gore to the rescue!

Al Gore's bank account may be getting depleted so he's back at it again.

I read where the CDC cancelled this right before the inauguration. (No doubt for the same reason - Trump, but still they lie).

Let Gore finance all the meetings he wants to finance for his Gorebull warming fake news.

Just don’t use our taxes to pay for him or his lying monkeys.

..“Today we face a challenging political climate, but climate shouldn’t be a political issue.

But it is a political issue because it definitely isn't about Science.

Somehow Algore has managed to extract more cash from the Climate Religion so they can pay him for his wisdom. Saps.

Wonderful. If they want to have a conference, they can spend their own money. Trump has defunded abortions, palestinians, and this conference. He has cut advertising for Obamacare. Each cut forces the left to spend their own money, or cut the thing. NPR is next. By 2018, the democrats will be a regional shell of themselves.

Who's going to go?

I'm sure the rich, private jet, multiple mansion liberal elites will be there to sip champagne and tell Algore how wonderful he is.
