This is hilarious, but true, especially when you look at the most recent Gallup Poll that shows many Americans just don’t treat climate change as an issue of interest anymore. Google trends confirms this too:
But when MSNBC admits to it, the disinterest becomes, er, palpable:

Later in the thread, Hayes says this:
Well, that space for wildfires linked to climate change just shrunk, bigly:
“Global area burned appears to have overall declined over past decades, and there is increasing evidence that there is less fire in the global landscape today than centuries ago.”
Who needs climate change when we have our new crusade – to save the oceans from plastic.
Going on right here in the next town over–where all the Ivy League credentialed, six-figure deep blue rubes are missing the fact that 100% of the town’s trash is incinerated, NONE winds up in the ocean. But MUST be seen virtue-signalling HARDEST!! They’ve become a self-parody at this point.
The wildfires in Greece are now being reported as caused by ARSON. In what possible way is that the fault of “climate change” of 1.5 degrees C. since 1850?
Only those seeking association with fashionably hysterical “causes” are taken in by such asininity.
People are smarter than we give them credit for.
Stormy Daniel stories were just sexier (the stories, not Stormy) than actual storms. Esp. stories about the lawyer!
Capitalism and democracy in action.
If it doesn’t work, toss it.
Firstly, what does wildfires in Greece have to do with ‘Global Warming” (which isn’t happening, by the way)? Zero!
Secondly, it is surprising if the AGW narrative doesn’t grab peoples attention when every other kind of B.S. fills the airwaves incessantly.
Ummm…. global warming will increase wildfires – yeah, that is just a stunner of a lie, when the FACTS are otherwise, e.g., the ongoing Cranston Fire is the result of arson and an arson arrest has been made, per Accuweather’s report.
Any firefighter who fights these wildfires will tell you that wildfires have a lot to do with the obstinate refusal of ecohippies to allow forestry workers to go in to heavily-forested areas and clean out trash, dead trees, and undergrowth, all of which are fuel for a wildfire. It has NOTHING to do with the climate at all.
Lack of rain makes it worse, but that is that nasty non-political stuff called “weather”, and we have no control – zero – zip – nada – AT ALL over that.
In addition was the comment “…news networks–the only outlets that can force change in this country–“, highlights the fact that the mainstream media no longer practices journalism, but rather the art of news curation.
I sure looks like the incessant warmist propaganda has backfired when even mentioning climate change negatively affects ratings. More proof the American people are fed up with warmist propaganda.
The graph showing the decline is “worse than we thought”. It’s only the faithful that are supporting a base load interest – this is the bottom for most people
I love that startling admission – “We always talk about climate when we talk about weather events/disasters.” Always. No reasoned vetting of events, just knee-jerk all the way. Uh, think that could be your problem? Ever hear of the boy who cried “Wolf!”?
Amazing that sort of thing can come out of their own mouths, and they still apparently see no bias.
The climate propaganda industry got away with lying for quite a while because they could count on weak journalists and most peoples natural instinct to preserve the planet . But they also rolled in a political agenda and money making promoters got involved . Governments looking for a way to bail themselves out or at least buy time got on board too . Then after being lied to for at least 15 years the public woke up
to the overblown scam and now rightfully believe nothing from these fraudsters .
We don’t see pictures of dead fuel poverty victims curled up in a ball despite there being over 10,000 human deaths per year caused by enabling government policy . To put that in polar bear terms… that loss rate would wipeout polar bears in about 3 years .
Governments have known for years that forcing people to chose between eating or having heat was going to result in premature deaths and for the eco anarchists that was right up there alley . Population extermination of the poor and elderly .
The real “who knew ” lawsuits will be to track down the con artists and government policy makers that are causing mass genocide .
and the fact it appears that the Greek fires were lit by arsonists in very quick succession….sorta slamdunks the agitprop there a bit?
I’m afraid climate crisis news alone can’t be blamed for the certain death of MSM ratings. All the rest of the news from these terminally corrupted outlets is in the same jam for all the same resons. Designer-brained journalism in the MSM is the west’s brinkmanship with Stalin’s Pravda and Izvestia. Somehow, no matter how you try to dress up fake news, it just doesnt excite. Do these guys think the Russian collusion investigation resonates?
I’m not denialist or anything but in the northern Europe summers have been +12 C and rainy every f****** day for the last 20 years. So this is exeptional summer and now this indicates about climate change? Not very good or scientific argument.
