President Donald Trump escalated his denial of global warming Tuesday, when he took to Twitter to quote a noted climate skeptic who claims that climate change is"fake science."
Trump cited the comments of Patrick Moore on Fox News'"Fox & Friends" program, which identified him as the co-founder of the activist group Greenpeace. Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace:"The whole climate crisis is not only Fake News, it's Fake Science. There is no climate crisis, there's weather and climate all around the world, and in fact carbon dioxide is the main building block of all life.
— Donald J. Trump March 12, 2019 According to Greenpeace, however, Moore is not a co-founder but rather"a paid spokesman for a variety of polluting industries for more than 30 years." Moore, who is not a climate scientist but who has degrees in forest biology and ecology, played a significant role in Greenpeace Canada for several years early in the organization's existence, according to Greenpeace's website, but he did not help found it.

At least he's consistent about something even though he is wrong
How much longer we accepting this fool as our president? The goddam joke isn’t funny any longer.
I don't understand. This should not be political. We all should be trying to protect the planet. But it's become the Republicans vs. Democrats in a subject is of upmost importance. It makes me scared for my kids future.
I declare Trump to be a fake president. Can I get some air time for that? fakepreisent
This man is in constant denial
GovHowardDean GovHowardDean is fakenoose. BTW, the 'climate change' you push, is 100% 'fake science'. This however, is real science...
~ the careless in chief
Trump should not speak when it comes to science and technology. It just lets people know how stupid he is.
40% of your country believe Jesus will return by 2050, so you can understand why they are unfazed by climate change. Best of luck 👍🏻
CnnFakeNews
I thought it was called climate change now?
Probably one of the few in the planet who's turning a blind eye to science and the facts! Look around and see what's going on!
Spanky’s denial is based on the fact that his hair paste will melt if it gets too warm.
GovHowardDean What does one expect from a FakePresident.
😂😂 settle down folks. got this.
vrskab CNN who?
Just like trump is a fake president
Global warming may not be a fallacy but it's impact is minimal. Maybe complain to the biggest polluters like China and India and quit whining about President Trump's views.
Carbon dioxide ,vital f survival,traps Sun's heat,why we always have water.Volcanic erupt ions releases c/d,some dissolve rain etc,trees use
F(l)ake president.
He doesn't miss any opportunity to show just how ignorant he really is.
the voice of the Lord and warnings from God for people and persons to repent and do obediently right is what the Wrath of God is about and for,= The itdots call it global warming or some kind of science they refuse to acknowelege God as a person or a authority to obey
If you and all sleazy leftist would stop making ckimate change political question and if money for environment would not disappear in bureaucratic bullshit, think all would agree that care for nature and planet are nobel causes. You dont give a shit about environment!
The real crisis is we have a fake president.
GovHowardDean This is Trumps vision for America
The person who says climate change is fake is the same person who still doesn’t know how the government works.
realDonaldTrump, please stop taking your prescribed medications. 'Believe me', they're all 'fake science'.
' the most scientifically inclined n informed president ever'
I think Trump is into St. Thomas Aquinas too. He's on the right track
you soy boys and snowflakes need to find a better hobby even if trump was for climate change or if he pulled off the miracle and fixed it you still would have to bitch and moan about something he is doing so tighten up your vaginas or grow a pair or quit being hypocrites
It is nonsense. I’m amazed how many people actually believe it.
GovHowardDean I think you meant “climate change skeptic.”
insomniacx29 Fake president .
The noted skeptic started green peace
Why does anyone pay any attention to anything he says anymore.
Only ignorant and poor man ..
realDonaldTrump knows all about fake
Trump is the master on fakeness. He's a fake president who lies every time he speaks to a cult of fake Christians who believe in a fake god and make up fake crisis in order to push through stupid ideas that fail to fix the problems they're supposed to address. Fake Conservatives.
Really? Really?
Because he knows more about global warming than anybody
Nothing is faker than his orange face!!!! MY GOD WHEN WILL WE BE RID OF HIM!!!!!
Tell me if they'll climate is fake
He has a lot of practice with fake, like his hair, this presidency, his taxes, wealth, his organizations, doctor reports, ability to strike a deal... DonTheCon Grifter What’s not fake is climate change.
There are many international scientists questioning the UN reports and statements!
Climate change is an hoax
All Media which takes Weather out of our control is Anti Progress Propaganda in aid of a Terrorist Agenda. He knows You're FOS.
Trump is right again. Climate change is a hoax and a scam for taxes that do NOTHING to reduce pollution on the earth. We need a new movement call it 'World Trash Reduction' WTR.
Yes there are climate scientists whose data diifer with the main steam.The debate is not over, the science not settled.
Well done USA. You are the best in empowering the greatest idiots. As if Bush wasn´t enough, now you came with this reality TV star. What will be next? WIll you make an election for the greatest maniac from a psychiatry?
... and lied by claiming said skeptic was the co-founder of Green Peace. Because Trump is incapable of not lying.
He's right.
Fake President
Can you imagine
Hi TRUMP, You are a joke
Well of course a fake President would say fake science. Goes with the territory.
You could cut down on the Trump time by simply issuing a statement like: 'DJT held a speech today where he issued some nonsense statements while talking to his base.'
This man is a joke! “Fake science“ Now he will decide what is true science? This is sooo authoritarian!!!
If Trump agreed climate change does exist he would not be able to support his willingness to take big contributions from coal and oil billionaires, just two examples. He was quoted saying 'why would I care about climate change destroying our world, I won't be here.'
He said the co-founder of Greenpeace said climate change was fake news. Greenpeace (certified account) texted back and said the man was not a co-founder just a lobbyist. Trumo deleted the tweet soon after that.
There may not be a substantial global warming, however, even with this small global warming, there is a global weather fluctuation. Stronger storm activities higher number and strength of tornadoes and hurricanes. The U.S.A. is very exposed to them, you can not ignore it.!
It was proven to be fake under Obama. Democrats and MSM just brushing it off peddling lies.
CalvinSwine905 Yup, just like -Quote:Climate change was made up in china - D J Trump
Fake. Science. Next
Global warming is pseudoscience.
There may be climate change but it is not man made. That does not mean we must not clean up our planet. But that is pollution.
more than half the country thinks climate change is a hoax as well! So doesn't the guy from Greenpeace!
. You forgot to mention, the guy is the founder of Greenpeace!
You mean the founder of the foremost environmentalist organization on the planet?
Coming from a liar-&-cheat realDonaldTrump is our first true FakePresident .
Causing diversion & mis direction only helps thinking ones to question more why U do not want truth seekers looking more closely at you. Truth is not sin, so, why lie time & time again as you continue to do? What U got to hide, Open your books, lets have a look see who U-R Scary
Has he got brains?.
Successful pilot and climate change kingpin. Is there nothing Don can’t do?
This gentleman really really likes to say fake something, I am impressed. But WHY?
Making it up as you go along is not science. Now it can get hot or cold and it's climate change. That way they can't lose. That's not science. It's a scam.
The climate change, if exists, cannot be reversed with a magic wand, or stopping a few emissions. It may have to do with the increase in global population. Best is to adapt.
There is very little time, we urgently need to correct the situation with the pollution of the atmosphere in our house.
Global warming is as real as CNN news.
“Settled Science “ 🙄🙄
Manipulated data
No Consensus
Fake president
Climate hoax folks
It is
realDonaldTrump is obsessed with fake things! Probably cos HE'S so fake just like his tan!! 👱🏽♂️🍊
That's ok it's a simple case of mind over matter i don't mind cause he don't matter
Could DT be a duped duffus? Or is DT an obedient shill for Charles Koch and Robert Mercer Read Dark Money JaneMayerNYer to find the answers
Let's see, , how do you guys do it? Oh yeah: All dems/socialists/Progressives smart, up and coming, good. All republicans, conservatives, anything realDonaldTrump or family, BAD. We see what you're doing.
Yawn
Kinda buried the lede there, CNN. Noted climate skeptic *and founder of Greenpeace*. There, fixed it for you.
lmpotus will disappear somewhat like the dinosaurs and a switched-on, educated and intelligent generation will save the earth from disaster. lmpotus is just a 'blip' in the time frame.
I would give my usual answer of I’m a fisheries biologist and have seen and studied the impacts of climate change on our oceans, streams, and lakes but what’s the point. Cheeto here has Fox News and I’m sure they know more than a biologist. 😒
Remind me again, how much did the Coal Barons & Oil Barons contribute to his election, meanwhile in February in the UK people walking around in T-Shirts & Shorts, Aberdeen Scotland 18c S,2018 Finland Forest Fires, California worst fires ever, Atolls on the verge of vanishing
😡😡😡
Climate change is fake science. Well climate change is real, but not to the extent you take it.
I’m a scientist. This is such a problem. Ugh.
CnnFakeNews
try to defeat ISIS who killed tons of people.. and also the evil group!!! that is spreading in you tube!!!
March is windy.... CNN blames Trump. ....because of global warming. 😂
Climate 'denier'. Is this a world of science or a world of imagination, baseless belief and opinion?
Donny THE FUCKSTAIN Trump is the BIGGEST JOKE...period
If we’re talking true science, what level of of co2 emissions, world-wide, results in a stable climate? There must be at least one ‘scientific’ study out there with the answer to this simple question. Otherwise, it’s no better than eco-religion, complete with sins and Armageddon.
Trump will die before the shit hits the fan. He will never know how wrong he is. But our grandchildren will.
He has no clue.Impeachment time!
Noted climate skeptic who helped start Greenpeace. You forgot that bit
Every time Trump says something stupid I picture this.
Wanker.
Perfect! He's our fake news POTUS!
What an idiot! I can't believe this is what I woke up to. realDonaldTrump is nothing but a clown! He belongs in a circus, not the White House.
Does the climate skeptic work for Fox News which every sane person knows is FAKE NEWS
What a great role model, everything he doesn't like is fake. Just like a 5 yr old.
Fake President!
trump roxx
There is no cure for stupid
