Presidential candidate Amy Klobuchar refutes Trump questioning whether climate change is real
ABC "News" ^ | February 11, 2019 | by Cheyenne Haslett (D-ABC)

Minnesota Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar on Monday refuted President Donald Trump's questioning whether climate change is real because it was snowing heavily when she announced this weekend she's running for president.

"Okay. That is so wrong," Klobuchar said on ABC's "Good Morning America" in her first network TV interview since declaring, pushing back on the president's tweet that it was "bad timing" that she talked "proudly" of fighting global warming "while standing in a virtual blizzard of snow, ice and freezing temperatures."

"I'm sorry if it still snows in the world but the point is that we know climate change is happening. Just this last year it was one of the four hottest years in the history of the world. That's what's happening right now," Klobuchar said.

When it’s hot, that’s “climate.”

When it’s cold, that’s “weather.”

Only a climate scientist can understand such things.

Just this last year it was one of the four hottest years in the history of the world

And all this supposed warming she is citing is Within the Margin of Error of their Measurements. Hundredths of a Degree!!!

How queer. 20 years ago the scientists were saying that there would be no more snow in England by this date.

But heavy snow doesn’t mean that things didn’t get warmer.

Bullstalin. It is hysteria from Marxists hellbent on derailing industrialisn in Western civilization. China and India can poot and pollute all they want but not the mean ol’ USA.

Amy - Climate change has always been happening since the beginning of the Earth. Man-made Climate Change is a hoax, concocted for the communist take over of the USA.

But in 5,000 years the oceans will rise two feet. Or not, no one will be around to be held accountable.

Our efforts to fight glocal cooling worked then, just too much though.

> we know climate change is happening

Amy, over the last 30 years what predictions have the scientists gotten right? I can list a dozen they’ve been wrong about. Following the scientific method, we can’t assume as theory is credible until it passes some tests to validate it. If you won’t follow the scientific method, you are denying science.

If we move beyond science (since you probably don’t have a clue about that), what predictions have activist been right about? Ice-free arctic? Polar bear decline? End of snow in the NW US? We’ve had plenty of predictions from activists, and credibility depends on being right at least some of the time.

So, what have scientists or activists been right about in the past that leads to you trust predictions on the future? Or do you deny that the scientific method should be applied to climate science?

Amy,Amy,Amy. You ignoramus. Had you been awake during 7th grade geography you would have learned that the very spot you’re standing on has been under a MILE of ice at least 5 times during the last million years.
