Environmentalist and author Bill McKibben joins Jennifer Granholm in Al Gore’s CURRENT TV “The War Room” to talk about the impact that climate change will have during the president’s second term and just how much we’re affecting our planet. McKibben explains, “If 1 degree melts the Arctic, we’re in a world of hurt. This is an emergency now.”
Only one problem…..
Nobody is listening…zzzz. He’ll be lucky to get to 350 views on his own.
Now the views count of his YouTube video will be mostly from WUWT viewers. Oh the ironing!

Ironing?
Well, if it’s a planetary emergency, then maybe it’s time to call the whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaambulance for Gore, McKibben and Mann?
Ironing takes a lot of energy. I don’t bother ironing my clothes – I put the planet first.
McKibben has a bully pulpit on New York Review of Books, where he has been tirelessly pushing his views for a couple of decades. Yesterday I put up on Tips and Notes an exchange of letters between him and Richard Muller that is amusing, particularly as Richard ridicules 350.org.
Ironing? turn off your auto complete! 😉
Temperatures in the Arctic are currently 32F/0C and one more degree will melt it all? Okayyyy……
Anthony, your speech recognition software has reminded me that I have laundry to do.
“Oh the ironing!”
I’m not clicking on the video… he won’t get my view.
Desperation.
The truth will be apparent before the conclusion of President Obama’s second term. Especially if he keeps borrowing to buy votes.
He will be more than somewhat displeased if, in the meantime, he hangs his hat on environmental climate alarmism.
There may have been a fiscally incontinent left / liberal drift since WW2 but the one advantage of democracy is that it can all be reversed when reality intrudes and those relying on state support realise that it isn’t really the government that supports them but the hitherto abused taxpayer who works hard and values self sufficiency.
A bumpy rise awaits us but truth cannot be suppressed forever and the responsible parties will be removed.
A pity, though, that so many of them will be able to retire with huge bank balances and secure pension funds.
Dammit, I shouldn’t have clicked on the link… sorry, that’s one vote that stats will count on its favour when it really is AGAINST it. Stats, if they were true, I’d be dead many years ago from cancer, cholesterol and many other diseases…..
As I pointed out in the comments section at another article on the topic of the melting Arctic, such discussion is far more better suited for a time of the year when the Arctic is not freezing up. http://asiasentinel.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=4893&Itemid=189
“ …. This is an emergency now.” Umm, no. Perhaps sometime next April or May. Try getting back to us then, Bill.
….and the rest of the dirty laundry…..
Not viewable from the UK 🙁
Looks like Nosferatu.
Anthony, by posting this on WUWT, you will at least double the views!
Like all squirrels he is really looking for the nuts. He will find some.
Why did I immediately see him in priest’s robs, worshipping Cthulhu?
For the life of me, I can’t understand why any rational adult takes this charlatan seriously. He’s truly an embarrassment, but the gullible (and habitually lazy) “mainstream” presstitutes take him seriously. They were made for each other.
With sagging readership and audiences, the establishment media has latched onto the climate change bogeyman as a convenient way to boost their declining bottom lines.
Robes.
Am surprised it warrants posting on the site here…
Sadly, not this WUWT reader. Apparently the video is not available to the UK. I am devastated!
/sarc
The elves in the trailer that preceded this ‘interview’ were more believable. And note that he has it every way. The interviewer virtually swooned at his brilliance in predicting a serious drought, or hurricane, or flood, or something. Sheeeesh. Obama voter for sure.
also, i managed to get it wrong about business week–the cover was in black letters, not yellow letters. and not even the makeup person could knock the shine off my forehead. you’re right, i’m not super good at this. thanks for the critique
Never take advice from an idiot.
Never!
(Oh the ironing!)? Ok–I can see that–hot press, ice melts, we all die. *Snort*.
Why don’t we just have the submarine Seaview fix it? If Richard Branson would just call Admiral Nelson and have him shoot a nuke at the Van Allen belt, we could control the climate!
Assemble a team of crack scientists like Gore, Hansen, Mann, …and what’s the guy’s name with the accordion??
What do we have to do, draw ’em a picture? Hey Josh…!?!
