Climate change group chastises media ‘objectivity’ by calling on press to ban ‘climate deniers’
The National Sentinel ^ | 8/19/19 | Jon Dougherty

A group known as The Climate Mobilization, which has called for a World War II-style mobilization to combat “climate change” and is aligned with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Bernie Sanders, is criticizing American media outlets for allowing “climate deniers” to express their views.

As such, the group wants media to ban them in an effort to silence all opposition to “climate change” rhetoric.

“Some media outlets are sacrificing the future of our planet for the sake of appearing objective,” Margaret Klein Salamon, founder and executive director of The Climate Mobilization, said in a news release Saturday.

“This idea of equating climate deniers with scientific experts is a dangerous practice which frames the threat to our planet, our existence as an ongoing debate,” Klein Salamon added.

And free speech, which terrifies them even more.

It’s like calling someone who does not believe that Communism works an ‘economics denier’.

Okay, anyone who id denying that we have a climate, should be rebuked! And they should be rebuked harshly! I have to agree with the Liberal Leftists on this one!

Of course, those who have the opinion that humans are not causing catastrophic damage to earth’s climate should be allowed to continue to speak the truth!

They actually used to be called "wreckers" back in the USSR

Last winter people in Chicago were praying for global warming/climate change to end before they all froze to death.

If the climate has changed what did it change from to what? And why is it so selective? Climate change people saying their climate has gone way too hot while a few states over people are freezing.

Yes, when matters of science and climate change and banning free speech arise, we should always obey the demands of Margaret Klein Salomon, founder of “The Climate Mobilization,” and a trained Psychologist whose views are apparently aligned with those of AOC and Bernie.

I mean what more solid science could one want?

This morning I fueled up my wife’s ride at our local Giant Foods gas pumps in a suburb of the Harrisburg. There on the cashier’s booth was a poster, saying, “Thanks to you we’ve planted 30,000 trees.” I thought, “WHAAAAT?! Haven’t you been flacking the AGW meme? Trees make CO2. CO2 has been called a pollutant. Shouldn’t you be cutting 30K of them DOWN?” It’s a joy to know it’s all a crock. All is well until Jesus returns.

Trees make CO2? Might want to check into that a bit further.

When I run across a Climate Change Fanatic I laugh and make uproarious fun of their ridiculous and fanciful religious beliefs. I tell them it’s idiots that made Al Gore a multi-millionaire through this stupidity.

Nobody denies that climate exists. So “Climate deniers” is clearly a misnomer.

What is in disagreement is climate CHANGE. And THAT is a subject for debate, which is by no means concluded as of now. The two positions in the debate, which MUST be continued, is the change caused by purely natural causes, or is there an anthropogenic component involved? And if there is, how important is that component?

This is a total denial of real science as it should be practiced.
