Biden: Denying Climate Change Almost Like Denying Gravity
By Phillip Swarts -March 7, 2015
Vice President Joe Biden slammed those who question climate change, saying that ignoring the scientific evidence is almost like denying gravity now.
I think its close to mindless, Mr. Biden said in a preview clip for the upcoming season of HBOs Vice.
The vice president pointed specifically to 2012s Hurricane Sandy as an example of how climate change is making the worlds weather patterns more severe.
All of a sudden people who were saying it couldnt happen; theyre now knowing they have to plan for another one of these storms, and another and another and another, Mr. Biden said, Mediaite reported Friday.
He also pointed to Wall Street financial institutions that are starting to plan and make investments based on the effects of climate change.
When the financial institutions begin to price in the cost of carbon for cost of doing business, you know its reality, Mr. Biden said.
According to NASA, atmospheric data for the past 650,000 years shows that the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has never been higher than 300 parts per million until 1950. Now, in 2014, the level is estimated to be at 400 parts per million.

Hell; Obastard has already flushed 18 Trillion down the toilet, why should they worry about facts or accurate data at this point?
