Katy Tur Frets Dems Not Far Left Enough on Global Warming

On her Friday afternoon show, MSNBC host Katy Tur was again beating the climate alarmism drum as she devoted a segment to fretting over the fact that Bernie Sanders is the only presidential candidate advocating all 10 action items called for by the left-wing environmental group, Center for Biological Diversity Action Fund.

Host Tur gave the group's chief political strategist, Brett Hartl, and environmental activist Amy Westervelt a forum to push for most of the Democratic candidates to move further to the left to fight global warming.

The segment began with several soundbites of Democratic candidates talking left on fighting climate change, with Sanders and Joe Biden calling the issue an "existential threat," which then led Tur to set up the segment by lamenting:

KATY TUR: During this week's contentious Democratic debate, all six candidates were able to agree that combating climate change is a high priority. But a new scorecard on the six Democrats paints a slightly different picture. According to the Center Action Fund, there are 10 critical actions to protect the climate. All of the candidates earn one point for wanting to end fossil fuels -- fossil fuel leasing on federal lands. But most of them scoring poorly for not supporting things like a ban on fracking or not ending fossil fuel exports. Only Bernie Sanders scored a perfect 10 out of 10.

Hey Katie- tell us how man’s 0.00136% atmospheric CO2 is causing global climate change- We’ll wait for you to find the answer-

While you’re at it- teach us al how life thrived when atmospheric CO2 was over 1000 ppm, but supposedly we’re all gonna spontaneously combust at just 400 ppm or so?, again, we’ll wait for an explanation

KATY TUR: During this week's contentious Democratic debate, all six candidates were able to agree that combating climate change is a high priority.

Katy Tur should instead lobby for an international science discussion on climate change, its history, and causes. So far, the Democrats have refused to sponsor an international debate.

For Democrats it is far easier to simply declare that climate change is caused by mankind. Democrats no longer need science.

Does Katy Tur have any science qualifications? Does she know that there are only two genders? Does she know that the greenhouse gas that affects our daily weather is water vapor?

Translated into normal people speak; it means the current candidates are not nearly brain damaged enough to fall for the BS globull warming scam. We need "extra special" candidates.
