Climate change affects everybody. It doesn't care if you're black or white, rich or poor, male or female. Climate change affects everybody, and the notion that we can ignore it is just foolhardy. We are talking about the fate of our planet.
We're seeing global temperatures rise at an alarming rate. We're seeing the world's oceans warming at an alarming rate. We're seeing a growing number of climate refugees even though that term isn't yet broadly recognized in international law whether they are on the South Pacific island of Kiribati, on the North slopes of Alaska or in the Sahara. We have farmers dealing with changing soil and growing conditions. We have folks who are running out of clean running water because of drought.
There's not one part of the globe that's not being affected by this. Both on a national level and on a global level, there's nothing more pressing.
The average person understands this; the average person knows that there's something going on. And, the average American is looking for more leadership from elected officials on the federal level. In frustration, they're turning to their state and local officials, and saying, We want action. And so states and local governments are picking up the slack and enacting local and statewide ordinances to combat climate change.
I am optimistic carefully optimistic that we can make changes. Part of that is because I have found people to be receptive, when they have an open mind and don't come to these issues from an ideological viewpoint, that it can't be happening.

“...Helter Skelter in a summer swelter...”
Every statement is a lie.

Any questions about which of these bodies determines our 'weather?' ;)
You’re right.
Hey Roker, just stick to being their token affirmative action hire and shut the hell up.
The media is going to go haywire trying to pin that Red line on Trump.
Al Roker, you’re a sad sad man.
Al Roker is a clown!!
Yes, climate change is real. It’s been real for approximately the last 4.5 billion years.
Thanks for the mention. I’m not familiar with the weather in that region, so the report was helpful.
Here the weather was 5 to 15 degrees colder than normal for the first six months of the year. It’s been mild since.
I should say, mild in general. We have had some ninety and 100 degree weather, but it hasn’t been a true summer season like it generally is. It’s milder > IMO.
2016 - Every political prognosticator and "expert" predicted a landslide Hillary Clinton win, based on their "scientific" data they call polls.
It’s so scary it makes Al crap his pants.
Not worth commenting on.
This clown would fail a fifth grade science test.
I’ve reduced my carbon footprint by getting rid of my television.

Al Baby, maybe you can tell us how the climate will be fixed. How much will it cost? Who pays for it? Who gets the money? What happens if whoever is responsible for fixing the climate makes it worse? What is the mitigation plan for that?
Simple questions that the climate alarmists will not answer.
Climate change is a joke!
ignorable?
