1. People are getting smart. That, or sick of the whole Climate change narrative of doom & gloom. Most of us grew up with “Climate change”. Known back in the cave days as weather.
   Some oldsters like me had to live through Global Cooling in school.
   This is just another show extolling the virtues of embracing the Mother Goddess while promoting the Green Religion. Calling people who don’t believe their Mythology “deniers” . This group actually wants people in jail for not worshipping the Planet like they do.
   Its also a bid by the UN to transfer wealth made here to other Nations who are not producers because of politics or Islam.
   No wonder Bob’s Burgers did so well.
   15 years of showing cold temperatures below normal has revealed what most people knew. When has any weatherman been accurate daily, let alone for hundreds of years.
   Makes for good taxes though on an essential gas( carbon) for survival.
   Tax the air is the cry. Yet on Volcano that went off not long ago spewed more pollution than a centuries of so called clean ups. In fact nothing would change if the human race ceased to exist.
   We are not Gods that control Planets.

2. I know it seems like the AGWers are losing, but these days it seems they are doubling down. It is just pure madness what they are saying now. The World will be destroyed by a 3 degree temperature rise ? Seriously ?

3. Well the White House is more concerned with bovine flatulence contributing green house gases.

   Agriculture: In June, in partnership with the dairy industry, the USDA, EPA and DOE will jointly release a “Biogas Roadmap” outlining voluntary strategies to accelerate adoption of methane digesters and other cost-effective technologies to reduce U.S. dairy sector greenhouse gas emissions by 25 percent by 2020.
   You know its a joke when eliminating cow farts will ‘Save The Planet!’
   These insane barking mad grifters should be met with laughter, derision, a nay vote at the ballot box, and a shotgun…to clear off the property.
   The whole film is only full of carnival hucksters trying to make you feel guilty if you don’t buy a carbon indulgence for farting like a cow.

4. Awesome!
   What’s worse than being told how to live righteously green by washed up fruit fly geneticists and has-been vice presidents?
   Being preached to on saving the planet by cutting down on excesses by multimillionaire movie stars, whose ideas of saving energy involves such sacrifices as turning down the temp on the swimming pool(s) a couple notches, or driving the Mercedes down town to stock up on caviar instead of the Ferrari.

5. I do agree that most are getting sick of the AGW scare, however, Bob’s Burgers is one of the funnier shows on TV right now.

6. I am glad my wife’s viewing habits have had a positive impact coming out on top of this climate garbage.

7. I just survived a ten-degree temperature rise over the last 24 hours – from 3C to 13C. The dandelions are thriving and my dogs have not gone extinct!
   Having cavorted intimately with weather/climate for all my working life and lived to tell the tale (meteorologists via their forecasts try to kill aviators, even if unintentionally) I have observed the temperature swings across the spectrum and across the world and I have seen better than two full 30-year cycles. There is nothing to panic over.

8. I’ll take Common Denominators for 800, Alex.
   >White House….Cow farts.

9. The entire premise of liberalism is built upon an inability and unwillingness to grasp basic arithmetic. As Aaron Clary (aka Capt. Capitalism) says: “Duh maths be hard”.
   Whether it’s government budget deficits or TV ratings, numbers simply do not matter to the left …UNLESS it’s about the number of Americans enrolled in Obunglercare and THEN numbers are pulled out of their backsides to “prove” their “success”.

10. In 1968 Paul Ehrlich wrote in his book the population bomb
    “The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now.”
    Fast forward some 46 years, and many more of Paul’s failed predictions of the future, all he can come up with is this one.
    “Suppose there were only a 10% probability that business as usual would bring about global climate disruption sufficient to cause the deaths of billions and misery for survivors.”
    It appears that people got smarter over the years but the same can’t be said about environmental activists.

11. FWIW and slightly off-topic, Gerald Butts, serial liar, former head of the “World Wildlife Federation”,is one of JT’s top advisors.

12. “Bob’s Burgers” is intentionally funny. The “green” nonsense, not so.

13. The “global community” couldn’t be bothered to rally itself to save 800,000 Rwandans from being hacked to death, a true human catastrophe if ever there was one.
    Why should we believe it would actually rally to deal with a dubious proposition like claims of climate catastrophe?
    It’s First World moral preening and posturing of the most egregious kind.

14. Interesting how fragmented the TV market is today. The highest-rated show in that survey, Game of Thrones, had only about four million viewers across the 300-million-population USA. (That was still more than 90 times as many viewers as Years of Living Dangerously and BTW how many people thought it was the 1980s movie with Mel Gibson?) The good news is that it doesn’t look like there’s much of an audience for apocalyptic greenery, so we may not be subjected to much more of it.

15. Obviously the next step is to force us to watch it, Clockwork Orange style.

16. “Obviously the next step is to force us to watch it, Clockwork Orange style.”
    tim in vermont, Exurban:
    In a sense, we were once always “forced” to watch shows. It’s not that long ago I remember having but two options for TV: CBC or CTV (Oh, yeah, in my family, Radio-Canada too – but of course that was just CBC again). The same was so in the US with CBS, ABC and NBC.
    The TV market is fragmented because the viewer gets to call the shots these days. In truth, far more than four million people will likely view Game of Thrones, but these will be the unknown statistic: those who watch it on their own time, on computers and other devices having saved or downloaded the show one way or another (legally or otherwise).
    If you wanted to watch The Ed Sullivan Show, you had to tune into your local CBS affiliate at the appointed hour every Sunday night. Today, you more or less watch whatever you want whenever you want, according to the dictates of your own schedule and personal convenience.
    Indeed, I’m willing to bet there are lots of people who won’t get around to watching Game of Thrones for some time.
    One of my relatives is currently enjoying a marathon session of Mad Men seasons. Rather than be “forced” into AMC’s schedule, he simply opted to build up his own digital archive until he felt ready to watch the show.
    All this must drive network execs nuts.
