Politicians who deny human-caused climate disruption elevate their own opinions above the expertise of not only climate scientists, but biologists, physicists, chemists and ecologists. It's as arrogant and inexplicable as claiming they know more about how to launch rockets than NASA, more about building skyscrapers than architects and more about computers than geeks.
A new report will now force these politicians to conclude they also know more about health and medical science than doctors. Next time they have chest pain we should hand out scalpels and insist they do their own open-heart surgery.

Ping!
He’s right. We can no longer simply ignore the hoax of anthropomorphically caused GW.
We must actively denounce it as the path to tyranny that it is.
The reasoning is right but the analysis is upside down. Over 30,000 Scientists, most of them Life Scientists, are on record saying that AGW is wrong AND attempts to stop it are dangerous and counter-productive.
Another asshole liberal ecofreak....f' him.
BARF
Science as religion ping.
Imbecile alert.
Medicare is broke and they think they can manage National Health care? These people are fools.
AND
Dr. Brian Moench is president of Utah Physicians for a Healthy Environment.
Thank you for the lecture on Climatology, Doctor
Now, go push pills and shut up.

This guy is a kool-aid drinker of the first order. There is NO evidence that higher global temperatures will have negative health consequences - only speculation by those looking fora crisis.
And in any case, there is nothing mankind can do about global temperatures. The real threat is global cooling such as that seen in the last ice age. That will definitely have negative outcomes for mankind as people freeze to death and crops fail on a global scale.
Algore can't add much less understand planetary science or climatology or even thermodynamics.
This is junk science and panic mongering.
Why would a biologist know more than a butcher or shoe salesman about weather?
Virtually everything the government has overseen or run has phailed or is on the verge of phailing:
Amtrak
Social Security
Medicare
Medicaid
Welfare
USPS
etc.
I was moving through articles too fast and should have realized that this article is far from barfingl over!
The Earth survived times when it was a lot hotter than now and times when it was a lot colder than now.
Actually, it THRIVED when it was hotter than now! Mother Earth needs your CO2!! Feed your Mother.
“Journalists” who continue to lie in the face of overwhelming facts, are idiots.
We GET IT!
A completely CRASHED and useless industrial economy produces no gasses of any kind. We’ll all just grow and eat veggies in our back yards and dance hand-in-hand under the clear blue skies with flower wreaths on our heads.
How on earth can someone like him write this without seeing a big flashing neon sign above him saying HYPOCRITE!
UPHE Goals All new electric energy supplies for the state of Utah should come from renewable resources. State-of-the-art controls on existing plants Reduction of the speed limit to 55mph when air pollution exceeds EPA limits Public subsidies for mass transit, free ridership and expanded service A 20% emissions reduction strategy by the Air Quality Board State funding for more extensive environmental monitoring; Strategies to increase public awareness Encouragement for school districts to use school buses that run on alternative fuels Policies that prohibit school buses should from idling in school yards while waiting for students Establishment of air pollution warning indices that promote the safety of pregnant women and their unborn children. Goal of attaining 25% renewable energy sources by the year 2020 Educate people about the sources of pollution and their health consequences Provide medical expertise to organizations working on urban planning, renewable power, increasing fuel efficiencies, and transportation alternatives.
He is nothing more than a Democratic ecofreak shill for the liberal maniacs in this world...why anyone would post anything he has to say on this forum is beyond me.....
Based on his own standards, he has no room to speak. So STFU, dear doctor.
What about climate scientists, biologists, physicists, chemists and ecologists who disagree with climate scientists, biologists, physicists, chemists and ecologists?
It's not arrogant denial, it's real scientific disagreement.
He’s an anesthesiologist, so this makes him an expert on global climate?
Hey, Moensch, what about all that evil laughing gas you’re releasing into the atmosphere?
I thought an unborn child was just a fetus with no reason to protect it according to the left....
The world population is rising, so naturally there will be more people affected by disease and malnutrition. Once they have the power to regulate carbon emissions, the next step will be to regulate reproduction.
I've heard statistics that say doctors are the third leading cause of death in the US. They need to concentrate on cleaning up their own profession instead of preaching to the rest of us about climate change.
BTW at the bottom of the page, you can give this article a thumbs down.
Why dont people believe in climate disaster?
Perhaps our exerience with the other predicted disasters:
Global cooling
Y2000
Acid Rain
The ozone hole
DDT
PCBs
Mercury in fish
Genetic engineering
genetically modified food
Alar
Nuclear power
pesticides/silent spring
rain forest
human caused plant and animal extinction
food shortages and starvation from over population
“Over 30,000 Scientists, most of them Life Scientists, are on record saying that AGW is wrong AND attempts to stop it are dangerous and counter-productive.”
You’re right, but of course that story got spiked.
The consensus people prefer to trot out their list of social workers, educators, business administrators, nurses etc. with BSs after their names and ignore our list of climatologists, physicists etc.

Higher temperatures can create more food, therefore obesity.

When "Dr." Gore diagnosed the earth with a fever, against what objective measure was he comparing the current average temperature?
If a patient were brought into the ER suffering with hypothermia and the (real) Dr. noted, after treatment, a rise in temperature, doing anything to stop the rise might be considered malpractice.
The first order of business with these loons is to ignore the fact that the earth is not warming but is actually cooling.
The science behind global warming is like testing a drug using a computer model to determine how humans will react to it. The ‘science’ of global warming is based on computer models which generously know about 10% of how our global environment behaves. Anyone who says the science is settled isn’t scientific.

Cheers!
Does he favor socialized medicine ("cap and trade" on payments to doctors)?
Cheers!
I am a physicists, do I get a pass to disagree; or is herd mentality the order of the day?
Until a more reality based country comes in and finishes making real slaves of us.
The "victim" minorities in this country look constantly backwards. If the Muzzies, China, Russia take over, they will look back to the good old days they loved to hate.
I guess it is up to we, the people to drag we, the sheeple along from the brink if we can muster the strength.The alternative is unthinkable.

He could actually type that with a straight face? The global warming, er, oh, I'm sorry, since that hasn't panned out for them it is now called "climate change" ... crowd has been wrong at every turn. Their so-called science has been shown to be based on shaky data, ill-advised and unsupportable methods, and down right lies.
It's as arrogant and inexplicable as claiming they know more about how to launch rockets than NASA, more about building skyscrapers than architects and more about computers than geeks.
If those groups had the same track record as the so-called "climate scientists" who attempted to foist global warming on us, and who are now engaged in a re-spin of the same power grab as "climate change"... well, then yes, I would claim to know more than them. I happen to know a thing or two about large-scale computer modelling of complex systems with emergent behaviours. The GW/CC crowd apparently does not - or more precisely knows just enough to manipulate the inputs, models, and results to support their agenda. They should be ashamed to call themselves scientists. They have no respect for the scientific method. Their bald-faced lies are not the results of scientific research, but mere hunting for propaganda materials.
“Over 30,000 Scientists, most of them Life Scientists, are on record saying that AGW is wrong AND attempts to stop it are dangerous and counter-productive.”
Could you provide me some more information on this. Could be very useful information, if it is from a reliable source.

Alert ...
There is a thread about it here .. I just read it but forgot to bookmark it :(

Q. What do you call a person who graduated last in the class in medical school?
A. Doctor.
We must actively denounce it as the path to tyranny that it is.
At this rate, CO2 emissions will soon be used by the government to decide who is allowed to breath.
More false made up garbage by university idiots!
