Snow Does Not Mean Climate Change Isn't Real



You know we live in a pretty amazing world when a snow storm is presented by a political party as serious evidence that global climate change is a hoax perpetrated on the American people by Al Gore and his profiteering.

In the way that only she can, MSNBC's Rachel Maddow explains the absurdity of the idea that "In politics right now, whatever we are looking at right this instant disproves everything else we know about the world."

A snow storm does not disprove global climate change just as:

  • One person winning the lottery does not disprove a poor economy
  • Rain in the desert does not mean deserts do not exist
  • A healthy person smoking a cigarette does not mean they're healthy
  • The existence of monkeys does not disprove evolution
  • The existence of tadpoles does not disprove frogs
Definitely suggested viewing!
