Hours after a massive earthquake rattled Japan, environmental advocates connected the natural disaster to global warming. The president of the European Economic and Social Committee, Staffan Nilsson, issued a statement calling for solidarity in tackling the global warming problem.
“Some islands affected by climate change have been hit,” said Nilsson. “Has not the time come to demonstrate on solidarity – not least solidarity in combating and adapting to climate change and global warming?”
“Mother Nature has again given us a sign that that is what we need to do,” he added.
Global Warming enthusiasts have also taken to Twitter to raise awareness of the need to respond to the earthquake by finally acting on climate change. And the Competitive Enterprise Institute’s Lee Doren compiled some of the best ones.
Some examples:
AliceTMBFan said “2 hours of geography earlier talking about Japan has left me thinking…maybe global warming is way more serious then we thought…”
Arbiterofwords tweeted “I’m worried that Japan earthquake, on top of other recent natural ‘disasters’, is a sign we’ve passed point of no return for climate change.”
MrVikas said “Events like the #Japan #earthquake and #tsunami MUST keep #climate change at forefront of policy thought: http://bit.ly/cZe8To #environment
Tayyclayy noted her frustration by tweeting “An earthquake with an 8.9 magnitude struck Japan.. And some say climate change isn’t real?!”
DanFranklin postulated “Never really believed all this global warming talk, but after the earthquake in NZ and today in Japan. Maybe we’ve ruined the world.”
And TeamIanHarding tweeted “While Japan witnessed an earthquake we were talking about the problems that global warming leads to in school. Think. Pray. And change.”
Do they have a point?
“Global warming alarmists will exploit any natural disaster to promote their anti-fossil fuel agenda,” Tom Borelli of the Free Enterprise Project told The Daily Caller, adding that the climate change reaction is a result of the “global warming spin machine.”
“First it’s global warming, then it’s climate change, now it’s probably tectonic instability – no doubt all caused by man,” he said.
When contacted by TheDC, Dan Weiss, Director of Climate Strategy at the Center for American Progress also expressed skepticism at the link between global warming and the earthquake in Japan.
“I am not a scientist,” said Weiss, “but I have never heard of a link between global warming and earthquakes.”
I beg to differ. It is Michelle Obama’ fault. She has her own zip code.

The audacity of these human beings to think that they are so above everything else. They should be reading a Bible instead of making up nonsense. The Bible will answer all there questions as to why these are happening.
It seems the earth is having its own ‘revolution’ & ‘days of rage’.
Signs and portents are important to new age religions.
In other words, if your car throws a rod in the engine, it’s because you should have changed the mirror position on the passenger side.
We like to think of ourselves as all-important, but in our relationship to the Earth we are less than a tick to a dog.
You've got that exactly backwards.
In the metaphysical scheme of things, Earth is skid mark on Humaity's undies.
Humaity’s=Humanity’s, arg.
Global Warming on Free Republic
WE'RE DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED!!!
Global warming is causing it to be 82 here tomorrow, plus look what it did this morning: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91Wh0_yNJhc
Funny people we have here.
PING!
Next on CNN: Weather experts tell us what the *Ring of Fire* is and why it’s sooooooo dangerous.
Stay Tuned!
Last year the Snow Prince of Gore-istan, decreed global warming a scientific fact. So if global warming can indeed induce colder temperatures, snow storms, then if you believe the Japanese earthquake was caused by global warming, you’re still ahead of the animated totem pole.
We need a separation of Gaia-worship and state. Their definition of “sins” don’t match up with the ones in my Bible and I cannot be (taxed) forced to tithe to their faith to pay indulgences for my sins against Mother Nature’s planet.
The Green Scare is taking far more victims and punishing far more innocents than the “Red Scare” ‘victims’.
Hysteria like this needs to be EXPOSED as a fraud in our schools and media. For DECADES. And expose those who are PUSHING this globalist nonsense.
