On Wednesday, both NBC’s 3rd Hour Today show and CBS This Morning engaged in climate change hysteria as they touted dire predictions that huge portions of land around the world would be underwater by 2050 and displace hundreds of millions of people. The network hosts all blindly accepted the warnings as true without pointing out that such wild claims have been made for decades without coming to fruition.
“And speaking of climate change, on the flip side of that, too much water actually becoming an issue....rising seas could affect way more people than they previously thought....this is an estimate for 2050, which is only 30 years from now,” co-host Dylan Dreyer proclaimed early in the 9:00 a.m. ET hour for NBC’s Today. “It shows that 150 million people are now living on land that will be below high tide by 2050,” she hyped.
Worried co-host Sheinelle Jones gasped: “Really?” Dreyer continued:
...they say southern Vietnam could be totally underwater. It’s mostly – the research that they did, it doesn’t include the United States, but we can assume some of this information for the United States as well. I mean, think about Miami, think about New Orleans, think about areas that are right on the coast. And people love to live by water.
Weatherman and co-host Al Roker chimed in: “Well, 60% of our population in this country live along the coast....But look at Vietnam, that’s 20 million people who could theoretically be displaced.”
Moments later, Roker increased the fearmongering: “In fact, just last year, the Department of Defense said that climate change is probably the number one threat to homeland security because so many of our defenses and defense facilities are along coasts.”

Just a communist propaganda fantasy... They get off on imagining the U.S. turning into one single metropolis as all the serfs are finally herded together where control will be simplified...
The networks are just appealing to the insanely stupid people that still watch their crap.
Even the Obozos aren’t _that_ stupid.
Anyohe want to rent shoreline at my Tennessee Possum Holler Sea Port?
This means that banks will stop loaning on beachfront properties in exactly two months from now. Yep.
as a teenager in the summer 50 years ago, water lapped under the boardwalk in Sea Isle and the beach was way way out in Wildwood.
Guess what 50 years later it is still the same.
having been in the Navy eons and eons ago. I can say the oceans are bigly big big. I can’t believe if every inch of ice melted that the oceans would rise maybe a few inches at best.
“They get off on imagining the U.S. turning into one single metropolis as all the serfs are finally herded together where control will be simplified...”
BINGO. Add the fag stuff to soften us up as sheep and gun confiscation.
Why is the news media allowed to broadcast lies?
What wading through the tripe I fid didn’t spot the neilson ratings for this crap. Did anybody care enough to look them up? I’m rather imagining most folks would rather watch old movie reruns.
What about Obama’s $15 million dollar spread on the coast?
Morons.
The NYT ran this.
It was the summer of 1968, when I first heard of and read about the coming climate catastrophe. And here lo and behold in 2019, that catastrophe is still on its way
Right.
And then there’s this:

Explosion in Antarctic sea ice levels may cause another ice age
Moments later, Roker increased the fearmongering: “In fact, just last year, the Department of Defense said that climate change is probably the number one threat to homeland security because so many of our defenses and defense facilities are along coasts.”
A senior Navy admiral of the Pacific fleet --- I don't recall the name, etc. --- claimed just this.
At least they are giving us 30 years instead of 11.
Meanwhile, Coeur d’Alene got a huge arctic air mass blow through on Monday afternoon, temps dropped about 30 degrees in a few hours, and we broke the all-time LOW temp for Oct 29 by TWO degrees. We’ve had FOUR snowstorms so far and broke all October records for snow, too.
This is such crap. I travel a lot and see NO first-hand evidence anywhere of warming. And I’ve been watching this garbage for 40 years!
I would take this stuff more seriously if they acted like they believed it themselves. Al gore owns an 8 million dollar beachfront home in California & obama owns a 15 million dollar storefront home on Martha’s Vineyard on an island no less. They are either dumber than a box of hammers or they don’t believe it.
