Miamis Republican mayor called on President Donald Trump and the head of the Environmental Protection Agency Friday to acknowledge that climate change is playing a role in the extreme weather that has slammed his city and the continental U.S. this summer.
Speaking from Miamis Emergency Operations Center in downtown, where the citys senior public safety and political authorities will ride out Category 4 Hurricane Irma this weekend, Mayor Tomás Regalado told the Miami Herald that he believes warming and rising seas are threatening South Floridas immediate and long-term future.
This is the time to talk about climate change. This is the time that the president and the EPA and whoever makes decisions needs to talk about climate change, said Regalado, who flew back to Miami from Argentina Friday morning to be in the city during the storm. If this isnt climate change, I dont know what is. This is a truly, truly poster child for what is to come.

“Andrew ???”
Isn’t 3 killers in a 9 year period enough? :-)
Just remember Rahm Emanuel !!!
What a big dope this mayor is!
Climate change happens 4 times a year..called seasons.
While I agree that the “climate change” harpies are using this year as their poster child to prove their point.....Hurricane Ike was a pretty intense storm that caused a lot of damage in 2008.
I guess climate change was on vacation the last 12 years. How stupid are these people?
Hurricanes of equal fury have been hitting Florida since before there where grass shacks on Miami beach. How long has it been since a major hurricane struck Florida...at least a decade. Hardly proof that phony climate change had any connection
Climate is what happens next winter summer and fall
Weather is what he’s got today
What an idiot
Is there any city left that has a mayor who is not a moran?
It’s actually difficult to be a bigger dumbshit than a liberal.
what do they say to something like that?? i walked away and they mumbled the usual BS...they got very defensive when i brought up algore...
Wasn't it downgraded to a tropical storm by that time?
How special for the ignorant mayor
he just want free money...
Did anyone bother to ask this nimrod where the hurricanes have been for the last ten years of globull warming?
You don’t know what it is.
So clearly, he doesn’t know what is.
By that logic, the nine years without Cat 3 hurricanes disproved climate change.
After no hurricanes of note in 12 years to hit USA we must have done something awful. /s

Poor slop doesn’t pay much attention to history. But then...what would you expect from a politician who makes his living by bullshitting people.
There is no doubt that there is climate change. That big block of ice at the northeastern end of the North American continent isn’t called GREENLAND for nothing......and that was even before the first SUV was ever made. However, Climate Change, formerly more properly called Global Warming, has less to do with mankind than the natural order of nature. If mankind is responsible for the Hurricanes in Florida, or Texas because of “carbon emissions”, than the people in the Pacific Northwest must be living carbon emission free because they NEVER have hurricanes.............NUTS.
