El Niño and the Coming Climate Madness
Download MP3By making the official proclamation that El Niño has begun, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) just sent the corporate media into a flurry of doomsday predictions. Who’s fault is it? Ours of course. We blew past the so called 1.5°C limit set by the Paris accord.
On today’s show, we'll hold up these apocalyptic claims to actual science, looking at historical data as a gauge for the “severity” of modern times. The true story here is that these pundits are fear mongering about a natural event that has happened for millennia.
Join host Anthony Watts as well as expert panelists H. Sterling Burnett and Linnea Lueken for episode 67 of Climate Change Roundtable.
