Who needs nukes to stop a hurricane?

[hunter]

All you have to do is tell people hurricanes don't exist and shut down any government agencies responsible for monitoring them.

That's the Republican plan for global warming. Why shouldn't it work for hurricanes?

The same strategy works for other environmental issues as well.

Smog? There's no such thing as smog.

Toxins in your drinking water? Don't be absurd.

2. The noaa.gov site has a new look

and apparently some barriers to copy and paste, or my browser is misbehaving again. Will noaa survive the current administration?

Smog? There's no such thing as smog.

When asked what message he wanted to deliver at the climate session he would not be attending because it already happened, Trump said that he wants “clean air and clean water” and that the United States is “having the cleanest air and cleanest water on the planet.”

7. If hurricanes don't exist there can be no victims of hurricanes...

... therefore we don't have to waste money helping people who claim to be victims of hurricanes.

And if water and air pollution are not a problem, then why are we wasting any money on pollution controls and enforcement?

Yeah, it's crazy logic, logic that makes no more sense than nuking hurricanes.

It's promoted by people who think they'll profit from the resulting chaos, and people who believe that wishing for something, praying to a deity, etc...., will bend reality in their favor.

"Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away."
