Gov. Gavin Newsom Flames Sen. Ron Johnson’s Climate Crisis Spin With Just 8 Words
Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) attempted to put a positive spin on global warming and California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) wasn’t there for it.
During Wednesday’s Senate Budget Committee hearing on health care costs associated with the climate crisis, Johnson tried to argue that projected rising temperatures would benefit the United States and Wisconsin because fewer people would die from the cold.
“In terms of excess deaths, a warming globe is actually beneficial,” Johnson told University of Chicago economics professor Michael Greenstone, citing Greenstone’s research that suggests cold areas will see reduced mortality but warm areas will see a major increase.
It’s a hell of a lot better than going back into a Holocene cool period (which will happen eventually)
Ignore those wildfires, folks! The heat is lovely! https://t.co/Y4d3Aqth6Q

Every single wildfire in California has been shown to be due to incompetence or being set intentionally or unintentionally. Not because it is 1.5 degrees F higher than it was back in 1850. If Gavin believes the slight warming is the fault of Mankind then why hasn’t he stopped using fossil fuels himself? And banned all his people from using them? He could ban all government employees from taking fossil fueled travel. Put up solar panels and wind turbines at the governor’s mansion.
But, remember, Doing Something about ‘climate change’ is always about forcing you to do something, not those who push this the hardest.
