... Pakistani officials are certain their country is enduring the new extremes of global warming. In the United States, the current leadership is not so convinced. Even though the Department of Defense lists global chaos caused by climate change as a daunting security challenge in the years to come, our president (who pays little attention to what experts in his government have to say) seems not to give a hoot. His big idea for protecting national security is a travel ban on Muslims that does little to enhance procedures that already exist for catching terrorists who may try to slip into the country. His big idea on climate change is to abandon the Paris accords that set greenhouse gas reduction goals for nearly every country on the planet.
Statistically, the odds that any American will die in a terrorist attack is one in millions. The chance that any American will be affected by climate change, however, is already 100%. But terrorists are more viscerally scary, in a swarthy-skinned movie-villain sort of way. For politicians, it is easy to drum up fears about fanatic creeps who behead innocent people and scream religious slogans before they blow themselves up in public squares.
It is much tougher to raise alarm about climate change, an existential threat that is still hard to fully comprehend. And it does not help that the best remedies for the problem are opposed by the fossil fuels industry that funds the campaigns of the politicians who choose to believe there is no climate problem at all.

Unfortunately, we can’t stop liberalism at the border.
How is this for absolutely scary, dangerous, deluded thinking?
“Statistically, the odds that any American will die in a terrorist attack is one in millions. The chance that any American will be affected by climate change, however, is already 100%.”

Screw the LA Slimes!
What doesn’t exist cannot possibly harm us, but talking about it can.

“But, I’m not hopeful we can rid ourselves of all the obama embeds.”
There are still Clintstone embeds, too.
An EO would be a good start. “If you are an obama embed, you have one week to resign without consequences. If we have to come get you, you’re going to jail.”
what cliamte change? The climate hasn’t changed in nearly 20 years-
Sounds good to me, I'm all for putting everyone of them in a bubble, nice and safe away from the rest of us.
Climate Change doesn’t take into account growth, even exponential, of CO2 consuming plants and plankton.
Wait I thought asteroids were the biggest threat.

Indeed. Over a hunted and fifty Pakistani were just incinerated.
See how hot it is.
Given that adult human bodies average 60% of water by weight (Googled), please consider the following.
As the human population increases, more and more water, including from the oceans, leaves the oceans and “walks around” on land.
So shouldn’t ocean levels be dropping instead of rising as human population increases and people grow up?
There is NOTHING, let me repeat that.... There is NOTHING we could do to affect global “climate change” even if we wanted to. The earth is YUGE!
“Man made” climate change is a hoax. IMPOSSIBLE. Humans are not capable of affecting global climate, PERIOD!
Man likes to think he is important in this world.
He’s a little gnat! Actually .... he is less than that.
“The estimated ratio of insects to humans is 200 million to one”
“There’s an average of 400 million insects per acre of land”.
“The United States “is home to some 400 pounds of insect biomass per acre, compared with our 14 pounds of flesh and bone”
“Scientists have described more than 900,000 species of insects but there could be seven times as many out there”
AND that doesn’t consider all the animals, birds, and fish.
In the grand scheme of things, humans are just not that significant or important, but we THINK we are.

Somehow I don’t think the sample from which that statistic is derived includes 9/11/01. On what basis does he exclude it?In fact, on what basis does he assure me that no one will come up with something even worse? He doesn’t know, and neither do I.
BTW, as stated “any American” would mean that the odds against any fatal terrorist attack at all in America is "millions to one.” Which clearly hasn’t been true.
The writer is clearly too busy blowing smoke to notice what he is even saying.
Climate change, our biggest threat, can’t be stopped at the border
*******************
My question to the author is....
“is climate change or the illegal invasion our biggest threat to the country we
call the United States of America? My contention is it is “illegal invasion”
as with the continued growth of illegals the country we know will be gone.
