Al Gore says the disastrous cyclone that devastated Myanmar was caused by global warming. On may 6th in an interview on NPR’s “Fresh Air” broadcast Gore told the host, and I quote:

“….the death count in Myanmar from the cyclone that hit there has been rising from 15,000 to way on up there to much higher numbers now being speculated…..last year a catastrophic storm hit Bangladesh. The year before, the strongest cyclone in more than 50 years hit China - and we’re seeing consequences that scientists have long predicted might be associated with continued global warming.”

Gore shamelessly links this tragedy to global warming without a shred of evidence to substantiate it, and the NPR host, of course, sat there accepting this bogus claim like it was scientifically beyond reproach. Linking natural weather events to advance the agenda of man-caused global warming has been a strategy for many proponents of this unproven theory, and the media lets it slide.

Gore claimed global warming is forcing ocean temperatures to rise, which is causing storms, including cyclones and hurricanes, to intensify. Gore went on to say that there is an emerging consensus among the climate scientists that the trend toward more Category 5 storms, the trend toward stronger and more destructive storms appears to be linked to global warming and specifically to the impact of global warming on higher ocean temperatures in the top couple of hundred feet of the ocean, which drives convection energy and moisture into these storms and makes them more powerful. What a crock. There is no such forming consensus. Indeed, there is great dispute about this claim. Much of the opposition is led by scientists who were once included in Gore’s so-called “scientific consensus”. These men and women were contributors to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that forms the basis of Gore’s “Inconvenient Truth” Now, nearly half say they were duped, and their work was misrepresented and wrongly politicized. They have disassociated themselves from Al Gore’s dog and phony show.

The media gives this kind propaganda a pass every time, it seems. We had all better wise up, because we’re being scammed.
