The Matt Walsh Show - Climate Change Is A Lie ｜ Proof For Your Liberal Friend

00:00:00.000 is this climate change on display for us right now is there other causes behind this here's

00:00:12.580 cnn's chief climate alarmist here to tell us that climate alarmism doesn't actually exist

00:00:18.400 just into cnn a dire warning about the state of the planet the new u.n report warns

00:00:25.440 the climate time bomb is ticking and the world is running out of time to avoid catastrophe so

00:00:30.800 that assessment comes from the world's most authoritative body on climate change which says

00:00:34.880 the earth is going to pass this critical warning threshold now much earlier than expected i mean

00:00:39.960 we're staring it down they're talking about the early 2030s cnn chief climate correspondent bill

00:00:44.240 weir is here so um please tell me we can stop this bill oh i'd love to tell you that we have to

00:00:49.320 believe that and we can and that's really the takeaway is that the tools are in our hands there

00:00:53.160 are no miracles needed when it comes to technology it's all right here it's all about political will

00:00:57.720 but let me explain the context here every year thousands of peer-reviewed papers around the world

00:01:03.660 look at the ice or the clouds or the penguins or every little aspect of our changing planet

00:01:09.180 the ipcc these are scientists from 195 countries have to synthesize all that information their

00:01:14.700 governments have to approve the language and then they put this report together and give it to

00:01:18.920 lawmakers in time for this next cop that's coming up in in the united arab emirates and it is the

00:01:24.980 most unequivocal there's no such thing as climate alarmism anymore that the time bomb is ticking but

00:01:30.520 we have the guide on how to defuse the bomb right in our hands right here the time bomb we've been

00:01:37.360 hearing about this ticking time bomb for a long time and uh but you know most and you imagine the uh

00:01:44.520 maybe the old-fashioned cartoon time bomb with the long wick that's it's going down and it's going

00:01:51.260 to explode um or maybe you imagine the the actual digital timer on it you know we have to find a way

00:01:57.580 to defuse it you have to cut like the old 90s action flicks you gotta someone's gotta cut cut the

00:02:01.940 red wire and the blue wire um but they keep extending the time that's the interesting thing

00:02:06.900 they keep extending it's all it's about to go off it's always just about to go off and then we're all

00:02:11.720 going to be dead i will say you know i i think if you're cnn's cnn they've got the chief climate

00:02:19.880 reporter and he says there's climate alarmism doesn't exist so like because no matter what you

00:02:25.340 say about the climate whatever alarming statements you make it's it's true and so it's not alarmism

00:02:30.780 that's the point that he's trying to make um we really are on the verge of an apocalypse nothing

00:02:36.420 nothing alarmist about it he claims well i think if that's the case i mean really the most powerful

00:02:44.160 statement and the most worthwhile thing that cnn could do is to just shut down entirely you think

00:02:50.560 about all the carbon emissions think about all the energy that is used just to keep a cable news

00:02:56.240 channel on the air 24 7 think about the carbon footprint and if we're on the verge of of planetary

00:03:06.140 destruction because of this then i think you have no choice morally but to shut down operations

00:03:11.780 entirely and that would be a statement to the rest of the world i mean that if you want to you want

00:03:16.820 to say something that's meaningful that would do it you say we're going to shut down completely because

00:03:21.700 we can no longer contribute to the coming apocalypse we are going to i want to hear from don lemon and

00:03:28.040 all the rest we're shutting down we're going to go live in the woods in caves and um we're going to

00:03:34.500 we're going to we're going to subsist on on berries and and uh locusts like like john the baptist in the

00:03:41.020 wilderness and that's how we're going to live our lives because we cannot contribute anymore to the coming

00:03:47.600 planetary extinction level event that would be a statement or maybe it really wouldn't be a

00:03:54.060 statement at all because nobody would notice even if they did that this is cnn that we're talking

00:03:57.720 about imagine you're a climate expert working for a major news network when one day out of nowhere

00:04:03.260 hillary clinton announces that maga republicans are causing the world to get hotter simply by voting

00:04:08.200 the wrong way and by cooking too many cheeseburgers i guess she says these maga republicans are lighting

00:04:14.240 the planet on fire they're causing the warmest summer in the history of the world going back

00:04:17.780 billions of years even before we had thermometers to measure this kind of thing that's how dangerous

00:04:23.160 these maga republicans are well last week we went into great detail about how hillary clinton sounded

00:04:27.800 like a you know like a mesoamerican shaman when she made all those claims but if you're a climate

00:04:31.840 expert in the mainstream media you can't laugh at what she said as we did you can't just move on

00:04:37.220 instead you have to run cover for hillary clinton because she's effectively your boss you revere her

00:04:42.660 therefore you have to go out on television and dutifully assert with maximum confidence that yes

00:04:47.820 hillary is right we are breaking temperature records right now and that's happening specifically because

00:04:52.760 of man-made climate change that's intensified in recent years that's the party line and indeed

00:04:57.480 like lemmings all the big networks came out and said exactly that one by one here's abc news for

00:05:02.820 example giving hillary some much-needed backup watch and heat isn't just affecting the u.s scientists say 1.00

00:05:09.360 july is set to be the earth's hottest month in recorded history let's bring in chief meteorologist

00:05:14.220 ginger zee and host of the 538 politics podcast galen druke for more on the heat and how it's

00:05:19.680 impacting voters thank you both for being here ginger it's been a busy july for you you and your team

00:05:25.260 have been reporting on this all throughout the month what sticks out to you after looking at the

00:05:30.400 heat that's affected across the country but also around the world right and that's what you have to

00:05:34.980 remember this is global warming it is global heat and so there are people in the midwest or northeast

00:05:40.480 and we're like well most of the summer's been okay like it really hasn't been anything above average

00:05:44.640 yes we've had the desert southwest having incredible heat we're talking consecutive heat but europe asia

00:05:51.060 so many pockets that add up globally to the hottest july on record is this climate change on display for us

00:05:58.640 right now is there are there other causes behind this and do we know what the domino effect is of

00:06:04.480 having the heat be this high for so long in so many places right so yes the answer is yes there

00:06:10.600 is human influence for sure we knew this year was going to be hot because of el nino but to see it

00:06:14.960 turn out this way has the remarkable footprint of human amplified climate change and that's what

00:06:21.920 the scientists were saying virtually impossible to see records obliterated like this without human

00:06:28.000 influence well the scientists are clear say the climate experts we just experienced the hottest july in

00:06:33.940 the history of the planet because we're polluting too much our carbon emissions are changing the

00:06:38.420 weather in real time notice they have the political analyst literally sitting right next to the climate

00:06:43.080 expert just to underscore the point that this whole segment is about scaring as many democrats as

00:06:47.380 possible so that they vote in the next election at this point joe biden needs all the help he can get

00:06:52.120 but wait a minute skeptical viewers might ask aren't there other periods in world history when

00:06:57.920 temperatures have spiked long before humans and even the dreaded mag of republicans existed

00:07:02.920 could we be witnessing something caused by nature instead of trump voters abc news's expert anticipated

00:07:10.320 that you might start thinking along those lines and here was her reply to that and with temperature

00:07:16.320 has always gone co2 so it follows it here's the difference that peak of temperature which is the blue

00:07:22.840 kind of around a hundred and some thousand years ago that was with volcanic and solar interruption

00:07:30.180 that's the thing that has driven co2 prior to now right now it's not the sun and it hasn't been

00:07:37.120 volcanoes to that degree it has been following one line on the graphic and that is co2 and greenhouse

00:07:43.680 gas emissions by humans so the expert is acknowledging that there have been periods out of world history when

00:07:49.140 the climate has gotten much warmer obviously but she says that was due to highly unusual events like

00:07:54.000 volcanic interruption and we don't have that right now the expert says at least not to any significant

00:07:58.800 degree so she concludes that trump voters must be the problem is that true admittedly i'm not a climate

00:08:05.840 scientist or an aztec shaman or any kind of expert in the weather whatsoever i can walk outside my

00:08:10.540 house and see what the weather is so i can do that but uh that's about it i do however pay attention to

00:08:16.780 the news and i couldn't help but notice something that abc's crack climate team somehow forgot to

00:08:21.640 mention just a year and a half ago this happened in the pacific ocean tonight jaw-dropping images of

00:08:30.740 an extraordinarily powerful and now deadly volcano erupting in the pacific ocean

00:08:35.520 this video captured a day before an even larger eruption of the same underwater volcano

00:08:42.260 rocked the island nation of tonga triggering tsunami alerts across the globe the scope of that

00:08:48.340 eruption best seen from space satellite images showing a massive cloud of smoke spewing in all

00:08:54.620 directions and as high as 12 miles in the air the most powerful volcanic activity in at least three

00:09:00.740 decades tsunami advisory in effect it's stunning power felt across five continents the entire west coast

00:09:08.260 of the united states and alaska under a tsunami alert for most of the weekend in peru two people

00:09:15.140 drowning after abnormally high waves slammed ashore ports from japan to new zealand littered with sunken

00:09:21.300 fishing boats the powerful waves tossing them like toys and they pop their heads out of the

00:09:26.280 out of their boat to see a red catamaran going over the top of my boat so that is a force of nature

00:09:33.620 shockwaves in central europe more than 10 000 miles away the before and after images are staggering the

00:09:40.400 force of the blast nearly wiping this uninhabited island off the map well that somehow went unnoticed

00:09:47.280 over at abc news an underwater volcano erupted in tonga it was so big you could see it from space the

00:09:52.200 entire west coast of the u.s was put under a tsunami warning according to nasa which wrote up a detailed

00:09:57.120 analysis of the event last august the eruption caused a sonic boom that circled the globe twice

00:10:02.040 the eruption also quote blasted an enormous plume of water vapor into earth's stratosphere

00:10:06.880 enough to fill more than 58 000 olympic-sized swimming pools according to nasa that's significant

00:10:13.920 because according to nasa volcanic eruptions normally cool the planet by emitting a lot of

00:10:17.740 dust particles that reflect sunlight away from the planet it didn't happen this time and as one

00:10:23.080 nasa scientist put it quote we've never seen anything like it so what what's the what's the upshot well

00:10:28.800 water vapor traps heat it's the single most abundant greenhouse gas that exists in the atmosphere

00:10:34.180 it's responsible for half of the greenhouse gas effect on the planet so here was the prediction

00:10:39.300 from nasa as of last august so this was last summer and this is what they wrote quote the sheer amount

00:10:46.680 of water vapor could be enough to temporarily affect earth's global average temperature so they were

00:10:53.160 predicting last summer that temperatures would rise because of the volcano that seems like a major

00:11:01.160 detail to leave out of literally every single news report on historic climate change this summer

00:11:06.560 it's like reporting on wildfires without mentioning that they were caused by arsonists

00:11:11.260 something that our news media also does regularly so think about how extraordinary this is a volcano

00:11:16.680 just sent a massive amount of water vapor into the air what scientists are calling a once-in-a-lifetime event

00:11:22.700 which scientists also say has clear ramifications for the climate and they don't even talk about it on

00:11:27.800 abc news democrats in the party of science blame maga republicans and nobody in the mainstream media

00:11:33.340 corrects them or mentions the billions of gallons of water vapor that were just spewed into the

00:11:39.580 atmosphere by a volcano a volcano that by the way i don't think you can blame on man-made climate change

00:11:46.200 i that's when they'll start talking about this and when they can figure out a way to blame us for the

00:11:51.320 volcano maybe the maga republicans set it off maybe they i don't know threw a bomb down into the

00:11:57.080 underwater volcano volcano somehow i don't know to be clear this is not some temporary spike in

00:12:03.020 temperature that nasa was talking about according to nasa quote excess water vapor injected by the

00:12:07.260 tonga volcano could remain in the stratosphere for several years that again was nasa's projection in

00:12:13.320 august of last year by december of 2022 it appeared that nasa's prediction had been vindicated

00:12:19.040 research published that month by the meteorological research institute nasa and the university of

00:12:24.140 chicago confirmed that the eruption last year increased the mass of water vapor in the stratosphere

00:12:28.420 by 13 percent which is a huge amount and this water vapor will remain in the stratosphere for years

00:12:36.640 just as nasa had originally predicted the researchers added that quote the unique nature and magnitude of

00:12:42.500 global stratospheric perturbation by the tonga eruption ranks it among the most remarkable climatic events

00:12:47.200 in the modern observation era seven months later this past july the research meteorologist ryan mao

00:12:53.400 had this response to the fallout from the eruption quote based upon the last few months it seems the

00:12:57.740 effect of the eruption on global temperatures may have been greatly underestimated and ryan mao was

00:13:03.320 right just about two weeks ago yet another paper came out on the eruption this one was for researchers

00:13:08.240 at caltex jet propulsion laboratory this paper found that the eruption sent 40 trillion gallons not

00:13:14.040 billions but trillion gallons of seawater into the stratosphere what the research has called an

00:13:19.600 unprecedented water vapor injection last week dr robert road the lead scientist at the independent

00:13:25.420 non-profit berkeley earth reviewed these recent findings he concluded that quote as a powerful greenhouse

00:13:31.020 gas this water may have contributed to recent warming now these seem like relevant developments

00:13:38.840 especially if you're covering the maga heat wave that's setting the united states on fire

00:13:43.380 and yet virtually every major media outlet is ignoring this being a husband father and host of my own show

00:13:49.580 means life never slows down imagine trying to eat 31 different fruits and vegetables every day

00:13:54.160 sounds miserable and time-consuming frankly i just don't want to do all that i'd rather go get something

00:13:59.340 deep fried and unhealthy sometimes damn it but with balance of nature fruits and veggies there's never been a

00:14:04.520 more convenient dietary supplement to ensure you get a wide variety of fruits and vegetables every day 0.91

00:14:08.580 with 31 different whole fruit and vegetable ingredients balance of nature takes fruits and vegetables

00:14:13.160 they freeze dry them turn them into a powder and then turn them into a capsule from there

00:14:17.240 you take a fruit and veggie capsules every day and your body knows what to do with them

00:14:30.220 promo code walsh here's someone uh that you should meet this is ayesha sadika she's a un climate advisor

00:14:36.400 as lives at tiktok pointed out yesterday posted this video uh this woman works at the un and yet

00:14:42.820 is not only a radical climate change alarmist but is also rabidly anti-white and maybe the word yet

00:14:50.280 is not necessary there as if there's some sort of conflict between you know working at the un and

00:14:54.840 having this attitude everyone at the un does but anyway um take a listen i say this because the

00:15:02.360 climate crisis is not passing the climate crisis is not a result of natural disasters it's actually

00:15:08.240 man-made it's a result i'm gonna say it again because i think they missed it the climate crisis

00:15:14.580 is man-made and it's not just man-made it's white man-made 0.92

00:15:19.360 it's a result of capitalism years of colonialism years of racial oppression and so if you want to

00:15:31.520 get involved the way that we save our planet is when we protect the most vulnerable communities

00:15:37.440 among us and this includes black trans women this includes indigenous peoples and this is why it

00:15:45.600 includes children and young people because when we protect them then we can protect everybody else

00:15:51.500 okay so uh you know what really gets me about this well first of all it's just not true

00:15:58.860 you know it's not true on several different levels but um on the racial end of it most of the

00:16:05.500 air and water pollution in the world comes from asia so she says that climate change is not only a

00:16:10.640 man-made problem but a white man-made problem well most of the air and water pollution on earth 0.89

00:16:16.260 comes from asia uh in fact we talked about it recently that one asian country has 83 of the top 100

00:16:23.880 uh polluting cities like the cities that have the most pollution one asian country has 83 of those top 1.00

00:16:32.140 100 cities and that's the country of india um so you know that's asia and then africa is the second

00:16:41.500 worst offender when it comes to water pollution specifically which means that the people that 0.94

00:16:46.860 are destroying the planet the worst offenders at destroying the planet are non-whites so that's 1.00

00:16:53.960 the first thing but the second is and i was thinking about this today which is that if there could 0.98

00:16:59.620 possibly be one advantage if there could possibly be one positive one little glimmer of a bright side

00:17:05.660 to climate alarmism which there is no advantage okay but but but if if there could be one

00:17:13.760 it would be that climate alarm alarmism you would think and hope would have at least even though it's

00:17:23.280 totally false and everything else uh it would at least have a sort of unifying effect you know

00:17:30.080 because if the planet is really doomed if the climate apocalypse is on the horizon then we're all

00:17:36.100 screwed right we're we're all in the same sinking boat um it's like if there was an asteroid headed

00:17:41.980 towards earth you know an asteroid the size of uh of australia or something headed towards earth we're

00:17:48.740 all going to be vaporized and that's what and that's what these people think climate change is

00:17:53.360 anyway basically well then when it hits we're all going to be equally dead so uh maybe we can find

00:18:02.200 some measure of unity in our shared sense of being totally screwed like i said it's a very small silver

00:18:08.500 lining but you would hope that would be there but we can't even get that from the climate alarmists

00:18:14.640 and the reason is that the the climate alarmists they filter their climate alarmism through the

00:18:20.340 victim oppressor narrative so so even this even a planet-wide catastrophe which they falsely

00:18:29.460 believe is on the horizon even that somehow becomes an us versus them thing everyone's going to die and

00:18:36.580 it's still like uh some people are more affected than others by this um and we know that's because

00:18:45.140 this is all of course a left-wing phenomenon and this is this this is leftism seeing the world based on

00:18:54.180 uh this calculation of victim versus oppressor which by the way uh there was another round of discussion

00:19:03.660 there's been another round of discussion on social media this week about uh defining the word woke

00:19:09.080 and i think this time i think libs and tiktok uh chaya reichik they she was giving a speech and

00:19:15.060 she was asked for a definition of woke and she didn't immediately offer one that is totally cohesive

00:19:21.900 and so that becomes at least in the clip that's circulating uh i'm sure it's largely out of context

00:19:27.460 but and that became another round of like oh see the see those conservatives they can't even define the

00:19:33.080 word uh woke well part of the reason why it can be hard to define because we're talking about it's an

00:19:38.500 ideology you know an ideology it's it's these are ideas okay it's this is not like being unable to

00:19:44.880 define the word woman woman is a biological category it is a it's a physical thing okay with with the 1.00

00:19:51.740 physical definitions um ideas are not that you know ideas change they can be and and with something like

00:20:00.460 wokeness is a whole bunch of really confused ideas and the ideas themselves also change that's that's

00:20:07.200 one of the one of the hallmarks of a woke person is that they could say something one minute and then

00:20:12.600 five minutes later say say completely the opposite and seem to believe both of both of those things at

00:20:18.000 the same time and so when people look at that and we can see this pattern and we see like there's

00:20:25.480 this category of people who are who have this confused idea of the world but trying to define

00:20:30.880 what that confusion is is a little difficult sometimes um but it is you know it's perfectly

00:20:39.420 possible to define there are many has many defining elements and uh you know if someone presses you for

00:20:45.380 uh a definition a one sentence definition you could do worse than this which is uh seeing the entire

00:20:53.460 world through this lens of victim versus oppressor that all of reality all of reality every aspect of

00:21:01.560 reality itself um is defined by the victim versus oppressor dynamic i just want to read this headline to

00:21:12.220 you okay here's the headline it's it is attention grabbing at least it was for me

00:21:17.380 climate change is messing with time more than previously thought scientists find so that's the

00:21:26.380 headline the headline is that climate change is so bad and we're going to find out just how bad it is

00:21:30.760 okay but it's so bad that it's not just warming up the earth and it's going to drown us all and all that

00:21:36.620 it's actually warping time itself our very conception of time is being changed because of climate change

00:21:45.100 it's a big study and it's a it's a big important thing it's big headline so let's find out a little

00:21:50.760 bit about this how could that be the case okay the impacts of human-caused climate change are so

00:21:57.260 overwhelming that they're actually messing with time according to new research polar ice melt caused by

00:22:02.560 global warming is changing the speed of the earth's rotation increasing the length of each day

00:22:06.440 and a trend set to accelerate over the century as humans continue to pump our planet uh pump out planet

00:22:11.900 heating pollution according to a study published monday in the proceedings of the national academy

00:22:15.740 of sciences and yet another sign of the huge impact humans are having on the planet uh quote this is a

00:22:22.680 testament to the gravity of ongoing climate change says a geophysicist at nasa's jet propulsion

00:22:28.920 laboratory and a report author the number of hours minutes and seconds making up each day on earth

00:22:34.460 are dictated by the speed of the earth's rotation which is influenced by a complex knot of factors

00:22:39.800 um and there's some science there which may or may not interest you these include processes in the

00:22:46.140 planet's fluid core the ongoing impact of the melting of huge glaciers after the last ice age as well as

00:22:51.060 melting polar ice due to climate change okay so that so the climate is making it's making the day

00:22:58.420 longer the day is getting longer and longer so if you feel if you've been feeling that if you've been

00:23:02.660 perceiving that that it feels like the days just drag on and on and on um it's it's true because of

00:23:08.960 climate change that's that is all the fault of climate change but how long are these days getting

00:23:14.100 because of climate change well we have to you have to read about i don't know 10 paragraphs down before

00:23:19.560 you get to this uh the team of international scientists looked at a 200 year period between

00:23:25.140 1900 and 2100 using observational data climate models to understand how climate change has affected

00:23:31.100 day length in the past and to project its role in the future climate change climate change fueled sea

00:23:37.380 level rise caused the length of a day to vary between 0.3 and 1 milliseconds in the 20th century

00:23:43.440 over the past two decades however the scientists calculated an increase in day length of 1.33

00:23:49.580 milliseconds per century significantly higher than at any other time in the 20th century

00:23:56.480 so that that was it that was the that that's what it's all leading to it's making the day longer

00:24:03.520 it's a big problem big enough problem we need a study about it we need a cnn headline about it

00:24:10.080 um and how is it affecting the day well it's making the day longer by it's well it's not even the day

00:24:17.520 it's uh it's increasing by 1.33 milliseconds per century so by my quick napkin calculation here with

00:24:28.640 time changing this quickly due to climate change a day will be a full second longer

00:24:33.980 in about

00:24:36.680 90 000 years right i think that's that's how it works out so 90 000 years from now um people if

00:24:47.200 there's any people left on earth are going to be just days will be eternal they're going to linger

00:24:53.760 on forever the day will never end the days will drag on and on and on for a full second longer

00:25:00.580 they'll have to they'll have to endure that additional second per day in 90 000 years about

00:25:08.120 but this is actually a perfect example of what we were just discussing that um

00:25:16.440 it may seem like you have to be crazy to believe that to believe in all the apocalyptic predictions

00:25:25.240 that we hear constantly about climate change it may seem like only a nutcase would believe this stuff

00:25:30.600 but that's not true um all you have to be is someone who is surrounded by the propaganda all the time

00:25:37.760 um has no real out you know doesn't have anyone in their life who's a voice of sanity not anybody that

00:25:44.840 they listen to anyway and uh and on top of that be uh not be someone who's who's not exactly a

00:25:53.340 critical thinker that's all that describes like a lot of people you don't have to be a maniac

00:25:58.520 and if you're in that group and you see a headline like this

00:26:03.540 it you know it's and of course you don't read on you don't keep reading and do the math and all

00:26:09.920 that they don't want you to do that you just just the headlines all you need

00:26:12.140 that's uh that it's it's even a it's even affecting our perception of time

00:26:19.180 it's how bad climate change is an entire second in 90 000 years

00:26:25.140 you
