EPA Chief: Climate Change Is Fact Because Bad Weather Leads the News

EPA administrator Gina McCarthy said there is no need to continue debating the science behind climate change.

“I can remember a day when the weather report was in the middle of the domestic and international news and took about a minute and a half. It wasn’t the news. When you go on the news today the first thing you’ll hear about is the weather. So there is a dramatic difference in the way people perceive the ability of the climate to impact their lives because they’re feeling it today,” McCarthy said during an event sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor.

“I think we need to make it very clear and not continue to debate the science. I think we need to get more people speaking about it than EPA, or NOAA or NASA. I mean, those people are great and looked at as being experts, not necessarily the best at making climate change science personal for people so they understand it,” she added.

Yup. Without a doubt. See:

A sure sign of glow-bull discombobulation. Cue the ex-spurts.

perceive the ability of the climate to impact their lives

And... there it is. But, wait! I have the perfect solution. Just tell people that it ISN'T getting warmer.

There, now - isn't it all better?

I noticed something in the weather charts, used to be 90 degrees was RED, now 75 degrees is RED!

There is no doubt that things are getting warm! The news said so, and you can’t refute Official Reality.

Gore Bull warming is a figment of Al Gore’s bank account.

I wonder if Gina McCarthy even knows how to tie her own shoes...

Oh, we understand it just fine, Gina.

It’s you who needs to get a clue.

Pretty scientific approach.

The people who survived the Jonestown Flood 1889 thought the same.

Really?? One of my earliest memories is Hurricane Betsy. I think it was in Alabama or some such place. I was in North Carolina. It was nowhere near me. But I think Hurricane Betsy made the news.

I also have some vague recollection of a lady named Camille....

Contradiction please.

We have been told that you can’t go by the daily weather to discern the long term global warming trends.

So you can’t say just because there’s a heat wave, that’s evidence of global warming.

At least that is what has been said in the past.

Now we’re saying that you should go by daily weather to see evidence of global warming???

Do these people just shoot off their mouths, and say whatever stream of consciousness comes into their heads? Do they ever think that what they are saying may contradict what we have been told previously? Do they ever explain the contradictions????

Well yeah. The hot temps caused the water to expand thereby causing the dam to burst.

She wants to cut off scientific debate.

And who’s “anti-science” again?

Just like “The Summer of the Shark” when there were actually less shark attacks than normal. Yep, just like that.

We have now reached the post-scientific stage of our society in which news reports take the place of actual scientific evidence. Therefore, the Weekly World News, with its front page headline "Titanic Skipper Found Alive in Drifting Lifeboat" can be taken as the equivalent of any high school physics experiment. On that basis, the National Science Foundation, National Institute of Health, and every government and university research grant can be zeroed out of the federal budget. We'll save billions!

Nothing to do with thousands of channels having to fill up every minute of every day with junk.

The EPA chief is a glittering jewel of collosal ignorance.

His statements reveal a total lack of scientific training coupled with a laughable amount of techno babble.

One should treat him with the same regard as one treats a turd on the sidewalk.

I would debate him any time, any place.

He would be mince meat.
