YOUTUBE — Veteran climate scientist Judith Curry bravely says climate change isn't a “crisis,” and she explains how the scientific community has become corrupted, leading many politicians, and most climate scientists in the media, to portray climate change as a crisis. "People are dying!" shouts Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez. Bill Nye "the Science Guy" says "The planet's on ****ing fire! This is an actual crisis!" But Curry tells John Stossel there is NO "crisis." Global warming is a problem, yes, but it's manageable. She explains how IPCC scientists recently admitted that their most extreme models won't become reality, and she notes that the worldwide rate of climate-related deaths is falling significantly.
