In what is now more or less a winter tradition , the President of the United States has again used the fact that the conditions is briefly cold in one country to attempt to expose the worldwide drift of climate change .
It ’s far from the first time Trump has confused climate with the weather .
" Snowing in Texas and Louisiana , book set freezing temperature throughout the country and beyond,“Trump wrote in 2014 . " Global warming is an expensive dupery ! "
However , it ’s middling disheartening to see a sitting President who thinks global climate alteration backed up by years and years of scientific evidence is nonsense because it ’s a bit nipping in Texas .
“ Brutal and Extended Cold Blast could shatter ALL RECORDS – Whatever happened to Global Warming ? ” he tweet in November , denying evidence from his own authorities ’s mood change reports .
In his up-to-the-minute tweet , the President actively ask over ball-shaped thaw , perhapsthe biggest terror to our satellite right now .
As ever , many scientists and non - scientists set about patiently explain the difference between clime and weather to a President who is n’t listening .
As many people pointed out , the weather may fluctuate but the overall trend is that orbicular temperature is go up and has been doing so for a very long sentence . Scientists have even advise that clime changemay make uttermost weather events more probable .
“ One down solar day on the Dow Jones does n’t mean the economy is give way to trash , ” Jason Furtado , an assistant prof of meteorology at the University of Oklahoma , patiently explain to the Washington Post . “ One insensate day does n’t suddenly mean that the general trend in world climate change is suddenly going in the opposite direction . ”
However , Donald Trump has Tweetedwell over 50 timesin denial of mood modification , and scientists and non - scientist alike are beginning to lose their patience .
" The President of the United States is breathtakingly ignorant , " Brian Klaaswrote on Twitter . " call in that he previously fabricate the harebrained claim that the Taiwanese administration invented mood alteration . It ’s objectively bonkers and ignorant and we should n’t make believe otherwise simply because he ’s the United States President . "
Other Twitter users mocked Trump for his childlike grip of mood change , and questioned whether he stops believing in sombreness the minute he takes off in a woodworking plane .
Even internal-combustion engine T lost his cool and he has ice-skating rink in his name .
passably depressingly , it ’s potential this up-to-the-minute cycle of people explaining basic science to the President will have no effect on his views on clime change and he ’ll tweet roughly the same thing the next time he ’s feel parky .
