J.D. Vance Is a global warming denier

As recently as 2020, Mr. Vance said in a speech at Ohio State University that
“we have a climate problem in our society.” He praised solar energy and he
called natural gas an improvement over dirtier forms of energy, but not “the
sort of thing that’s gonna take us to a clean energy future.”

Fast forward to 2022. As Mr. Vance sought Mr. Trump’s endorsement for his bid
for the Senate, his positions on climate change took a turn.

“I’m skeptical of the idea that climate change is caused purely by man,” Mr.
Vance told the American Leadership Forum that year.

He suggested that the climate was changing but that humans had no role in the
changes. “It’s been changing, as others pointed out, it’s been changing for
millennia,” Mr. Vance said.

(Scientists have conclusively determined that human activity, particularly the
burning of fossil fuels, is the dominant reason the planet is at its warmest
in recorded history.)

He has received $340,289 from the oil and gas industry in campaign
contributions since 2019, according to Open Secrets, a campaign finance
watchdog site.

"Man made".

?I?m skeptical of the idea that climate change is caused purely by man,? Mr.
Vance told the American Leadership Forum that year.
He suggested that the climate was changing but that humans had no role in the
changes. ?It?s been changing, as others pointed out, it?s been changing for
millennia,? Mr. Vance said.

And he's right.

And scientists have conclusively determined that human activity, particularly the
burning of fossil fuels, ISN'T the dominant reason the planet is at its warmest
in recorded history.

"Recorded history"?

You mean that ginormous WHOPPING 0.0000032% of EARTH time?

144 years vs. 4,500,000,000?

He has received $340,289 from the oil and gas industry in campaign
contributions since 2019, according to Open Secrets, a campaign finance
watchdog site.

And EVERY "climate scientist" who says climate and temperature are the result from man's lowly 3% contribution to the
WHOPPING 0.04% CO² in the atmosphere, NEVER got ANY money from their employer for saying that, let alone the government?

Riiiiight.

Come on, gay boy... list YOUR scientists who have NEVER gained from their stance on global warming/climate change.

Al Gore was invested in carbon-based energy sources, like oil.

You think HE never received a dime from ANY carbon-based energy company?

John Kerry was invested in oil too.

You think HE never received a dime from ANY carbon-based energy company?

John Kerry, President Biden's special presidential envoy for climate, held investments in oil companies prior to divesting
from the stocks as he took over the position, according to financial forms.

Two points:

1) Pretty much the entire Repub party is climate denialism. That's
their official position.
2) Vance is a businessman. The core aspect of being in business is
that you go with the flow. You say/do whatever is best at the
moment. That's what they teach you in MBA school.

Remember, Vance used to say (correctly) that Trump was America's Hitler.
He hasn't been saying that too much lately.

The core aspect of businessmen is to make business.

That's a truism : "climate" changed again and again before human even
existed.
