Ivan Frishberg sent me another e-mail asking me to call out the climate change deniers in Congress.
David —
Today, all across the country, people are telling members of Congress that it’s not OK to deny the science behind climate change.
There are 135 climate change deniers in Congress — elected officials who refuse to believe that climate change is real, manmade, and dangerous. Today, we want everyone pointing and laughing at these folks.
It’s easy to join in. Can you help by sharing something on Twitter or Facebook?
Or share this graphic on Facebook:
It only takes a second — but if we do our jobs, it’ll be fun to watch these climate change deniers try to explain themselves.
Keep it up and tweet right now:

It seems to me that an important part of science is observation. For instance, I have observed that the high temperature on the day I write this is about 75°. This is unusually cool for Indiana in the middle of August. I am aware, of course, that one unusually cool summer does not disprove the theory of global warming, but then, if we were having an unusually hot summer, the climate change alarmists would be taking that as proof that the Earth was getting dangerously warmer.
I wonder why we are having such a cool summer. I am a little concerned. I believe I’ve said before that I would be a lot more worried if there were a worldwide cooling trend than a warming. It really wouldn’t take much of a decrease in global average temperature to affect agriculture adversely. Of course, this is only one year and I am sure next year will be more normal. In the meantime, I will enjoy the pleasant weather.
