Climate science alarming, irrefutable: Kerry

AFP 3 hours ago

US Secretary of State John Kerry said Monday the evidence for climate change was beyond dispute but it was not too late for international action to prevent its worst impacts.

"The science is clear. It is irrefutable and it is alarming," Kerry told a climate conference in Majuro in the Marshall Islands in a video address from Washington.

"If we continue down our current path, the impacts of climate change will only get worse."

Kerry said without strong, immediate action, the world would experience threats to critical infrastructure, regional stability, public health, economic vitality, and the long-term viability of some states.

Washington's top diplomat was addressing climate experts meeting on the eve of the Pacific Islands Forum (PIF) in the Marshall Islands, a low-lying nation where rising seas threaten to swamp many atolls.

"I stand with you in the fight against climate change," he pledged, adding the issue was a global crisis that was beyond one country to fix and needed urgent global action.

"If we act together, there is still time to prevent some of the worst impacts of climate change," he said. "But the people of the Pacific Islands know as well as anyone that we also need to prepare communities for the impacts that are already being felt."

Kerry is not attending the PIF, with Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell representing the United States instead.

If we all lived the lifestyle of the two Global Warming Prophets Al Gore and John Kerry the Earth would be a burnt cinder.

John and Teresa Kerry own several valuable properties in the U.S., including:

A five-story, twelve-room brownstone townhouse (with six fireplaces, a rooftop deck, and an elevator) in Boston’s Beacon Hill. This home is John Kerry’s main residence and was assessed at a value of $6.6 million in 2003

A nine-room colonial home on a 90-acre family farm in Fox Chapel near Pittsburgh. This home is Teresa Kerry’s longtime residence, where she lived while was married to John Heinz and where she raised her three children. It is valued at $3.7 million.

A ski/vacation home located near the banks of the Big Wood River in Ketchum, Idaho, fashioned from a reassembled barn originally built in England in 1485 and brought to Idaho by Teresa Heinz Kerry’s late husband. It was purchased for $4.9 million in 1988.

A three-story, five-bedroom waterfront estate near the Brant Point Lighthouse in Nantucket’s harbor, where John and Teresa Kerry were married in 1995. The beachfront property is valued at $9.1 million.

A 23-room townhouse in the Georgetown section of Washington, D.C., valued at $4.7 million.

The aggregate value of these five homes is roughly $29 million.

Climate change in a manner reminiscent of Jen-jis Khaan.

P.S. Did you know Kerry served in Vietnam?

Well.., It’s, “irrefutable” until it becomes refutable.

The question is: At what level are the oceans supposed to be?

For a good time ask your libby friends to explain this:
50,000-Year-Old Cypress Forest Discovered 60 Feet Underwater Off Mobile, Alabama

Ok - now let's have a grown-up discussion about the fact that anyone living on these atolls will perhaps, someday, need to relocate...

World Renown Climatoligist John Kerry:

"The Evidence For Climate Change Is Beyond Dispute"

Yes John, the evidence certainly is beyond dispute:

And his bruised shoulder from running into the wheelhouse. And the splinter in his arm, probably thrown up by his MG fire to shore.

Don’t confuse him with facts. He and Alphonse Gore both are living in their own world.

Even stupid (e.g., Obama voters) laugh at Lurch.

The man makes Obama appear to be only slightly cretinous.

No one gives a smelly Obama what the gigolo grand ugly says.

As noted, the rest of the agenda marches on, even while the Syria mess (or the previous mess, or the mess before that) dominates news.

Thanks Sub-Driver.

Let's get this straight...the green movement is teaching our children and all who will hear that we have to act immediately to prevent “global warming”, now phrased as “climate Change”.

Then, an effort is made, however small, the climate will either remain the same or cool. Then those making the case for climate change will announce that they through their efforts have affected the climate, and establish a basis for further efforts to restrict our economy, bring it under state control, and cool the planet.

Hogwash! This totally disregards the scientific fact that the earth's climate is not heating up, and if anything is already cooling. All fluctuations are caused by the normal sun's cycle, and volcanic eruptions. If anything we are headed for a glacial period.

If they succeed in their “green efforts”, and in so doing, destroy our economy and republic, they will always shout to all who will listen, that they have saved the planet.

The green movement evolved out of the socialist movement of the late 60’s and 70’s, and has always had the eventual goal to destroy our republic, and establish socialism in the US.

Restore Our American Republic. R.O.A.R.

Quick - name one issue that John Kerry has been right about at any time in his entire life.

The one issue is that seducing women with boatloads of money someone else created can be profitable.

Why don’t we send Kerry, Clinton ( both of em, hell all 3 of em) AlGore and every other peckerhead that thinks the sky is falling to organize and implement the clean up process and rod removal at Fukishima. Give a taste of what a real disaster looks and smells like.

Let’s see the proof Yawn if it is so overwhelming. Probably the same proof as the Syrian attack.

That’s the funny thing. Kerry claims credibility about Syria and whether the US should go to war; then he spouts off about some wacko fantasy like MMGW.

“It is vital to the US economy that we must continue our stimulus policies,” said Ben Bernanke, “because I was told we have to do this by a magical unicorn in dreamland.”

“The value of these five homes is roughly $29 million.”

I wonder if he cheats on his property tax as well. I’ll bet the Heinz Co. pays it as a business expense. Smarmy bast...

Kerry claims we will suffer threats to regional stability, public health, economic vitality, and the long term viability of some states. All of these threats and more are being caused by Berry Obama and the stupid policies of liberal assholes. Global warming has nothing to do with them.
