NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine says he changed his mind on the existence of man-made climate change because he “read a lot.”

“I heard a lot of experts, and I read a lot,” Bridenstine told the Washington Post on Tuesday. “I came to the conclusion myself that carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that we've put a lot of it into the atmosphere and therefore we have contributed to the global warming that we've seen. And we've done it in really significant ways.”

The former congressman from Oklahoma had long denied the scientific consensus on climate change and said in a 2013 speech on the House floor that "global temperatures stopped rising 10 years ago."

In May, Bridenstine first announced publicly that he now believes human activity is the main cause of climate change.

Turns out that CO2 is not really the issue, unless you are a commie.

He should talk to a chemist. Any chemist, even a guy or gal fresh out of school.

As long as liars can write, I want to see some things for myself. Like coastlines disappearing, which Al Gore said would be happening by now.

I want to thank Obama and NASA for increasing the self-esteem of Muslims to the point they are now taking over Europe and parts of the US.

This idiot should start reading science books and not comic books. I shudder at the thought this clown is a NASA “Chief”.

The only chief-related qualification is janitor chief at NASA.

My guess is, that once he got into NASA, he was told by Deep State operatives that either he gets on the Gorebull Warming propaganda train, or he has to get out.

If ol’ Jimmy has read as much as he says, he knows full well the way to go is Thorium energy - regardless of whether climate change is woman made or not. Safe, abundant, very inexpensive, and doesn’t produce weapons-grade plutonium (a huge negative for the NeoCons).

Still, the liklihood is he got taken to the woodshed at some point. Can’t move up in government, or the military for that matter, without earning your PC stripes. The very unfortunate reality.

Did he read any news articles about Hawaii & Guatemala?

You know, volcanoes and stuff like that there.

You’d think areas like Key West would be uninhabitable by now.

Nobody doubts that there is man made global warming of a very minute immeasurable level. At least in centennial periods of time.

After all, entropy sucks.
