Greenpeace Co-Founder: ‘Climate Crisis Is Not Only Fake News. It’s Fake Science’
The Daily Caller ^ | 03/12/2019 | David Krayden

Posted on 03/12/2019 10:57:32 AM PDT by McGruff

Co-founder of environmental organization Greenpeace Patrick Moore said Tuesday that the climate change crisis driving much of liberal politics today “is not only fake news. It’s fake science.”

Moore also wondered during his appearance on “Fox & Friends” why people would be worried about global warming: “A little bit of warming would not be a bad thing, for myself being Canadian.”

Moore bounced back into the climate change debate last week in an online feud with New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez after he blasted her Green New Deal for being not ambitious but ridiculous.

“Well, it’s a silly plan; that’s why I suggested she was a pompous little twit, twit meaning silly in the British lexicon,” Moore told Fox, adding, “She really rubbed me the wrong way when she said she’s ‘the boss’ because she can make up a proposal that’s completely ridiculous, and nobody else did.”

Moore, who now sits as a director on the CO2 Coalition, a group of American and Canadian scientists who refute man-made climate change, says carbon dioxide is “the main building block of all life” and that it is good for the environment. “There is nothing to be afraid of.”

If anyone ever has a chance to hear Patrick Moore speak....it’s well worth your time. He was in the original ‘herd’ for GreenPeace, and within a two to three year period...came to question the new people coming into the movement, and their intentions.

How long before he has an unfortunate accident or dies from a supposed underlying health condition?

It’s hilarious.

We have 50 feet of snow in the Sierras this winter and March is only half over. This is the second record winter in 3 years - 2016-2017 was massive (”Januburied” is what it was called in 2017 in Lake Tahoe).

So what are they talking about? The winters are cold and strong, the drought cycles that we’ve always had are mitigated, and things pretty much look like they always have...and I’ve been on the planet over 6 decades. Which is a blink in time...but there’s no change worth talking about.

Just a bunch of idiots seeing what they want to see, believing what they want to.

Oh, “twit” in the British Lexicon. I get it. He didn’t mean she was a totally ignorant, wack-job, crazy mouthpiece tool.

He did mean with an “i” right?

Why is he just now speaking up declaring the Climate hysteria fraudulent? This has been going on for the last two generations of schoolchildren subjected to indoctrination.
Maybe his cut of the profits has been reduced, so he’s out for revenge by poisoning the well for all Climate scammers.

When you mention that to a global warmist they are programmed to say "weather is not climate". How convenient! What is weather to climate then? Climate is the summation of all weather.

“How convenient!”

Yes, isn’t it? A throw away phrase that negates any evidence to the contrary of their foregone conclusion: does anyone have the dataset at their fingertips the way they do with yesterday’s weather?

Of course not.

And as far as warming, which we know is a fraud, how ‘bout the reports from Montana today?

As if my relatives weren’t complaining about it enough this year!

Typical of the Left. They hijack an idea that might have some merit and quickly twist it to suit their agenda. Current AGW Share The Wealth gambit is a good example.

You need to forget about what Patrick Moore is saying and listen to what Florida Power and Light is saying.

FPL says they will install 30 million solar panels by 2030 and turn Florida into the "world leader in the production of solar energy"

Yep these people don’t grasp the cycles between ice ages and warm ones or they are in on a giant scam. There’s money and whole careers in that there panic inducement.
