Clinton's social media post came in response to a tweet from left-wing think tank Center for American Progress which stated "MAGA Republicans are pouring fuel on the climate crisis fire." The post included an image of recent media stories highlighting the recent spate of high temperatures in the U.S. and noted Republicans voted against the Inflation Reduction Act, Democrats' $739 billion climate package — which President Biden signed into law in 2022...............
.............The former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential nominee's post comes amid above-average summer temperatures. Democrats have been quick to blame climate change, though some climate experts like Ryan Maue, the former top climate scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, have noted heat waves aren't new.

populism that benefits no one. 98% of scientists would possibly agree with her that in the past, measures to be taken by conservatives in particular were not implemented due to lobbying, idiology or other reasons. but the topic is too complex to deal with in a tweet. in the end, we are all to blame.

That's the dumbest thing I've seen in a little while.
I've seen a lot of dumb things. I've said a lot of dumb things.
Somehow..... this takes the cake, currently. From the source:

So on top of not really getting it right, she wants people to blame Replublicans that didn't even necessarily have an impact on her beloved bill?
Seems legit.
I'm sure wildfires and mismanaged forests had nothing to do with anything. Evil Republicans and their...
*checks notes*
... Existence.
Published in November 2021 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the paper was developed out of a workshop sponsored by the W. M. Keck Institute for Space Studies and led by scientists on campus and at JPL. The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting limitations put on travel and other economic sectors by countries around the globe drastically decreased air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions within just a few weeks. However, while carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions fell by 5.4 percent in 2020 compared to the previous year, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere continued to grow at about the same rate as in preceding years. While the drop in emissions was significant, the growth in atmospheric concentrations of CO2 was within the normal range of year-to-year variation caused by natural processes. Also, the ocean did not absorb as much carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as it has in recent years, probably due to the reduced pressure of carbon dioxide in the air at the ocean’s surface.
“During previous socioeconomic disruptions, like the 1973 oil shortage, you could immediately see a change in the growth rate of CO2,” says David Schimel, head of JPL’s carbon group and a co-author of the study. “We all expected to see it this time, too.”

populism that benefits no one. 98% of scientists would possibly agree with her that in the past, measures to be taken by conservatives in particular were not implemented due to lobbying, idiology or other reasons. but the topic is too complex to deal with in a tweet. in the end, we are all to blame.
I knew someone would come in and defend her statement .
I'm always surprised there are living breathing people who actually think like this .
How can anyone take someone seriously that says things like this? I'm honestly just more surprised it came from Hillary instead of ole ramblin JB.

i don't defend here tweet (i called it populism) but the context of here statement. the absolute majority of all science is convinced that we humans are changing the climate through our actions. you don't believe in it, ok, but you dont represent the majority of people.

Increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide caused by return to the atmosphere of some of the gas that was once there promotes the growth of forests, the yield of agricultural crops and the fish, molluscs and coral polyps in the ocean.
Increase of Carbon Dioxide is thus wholly beneficial to “the environment” There is no evidence that it causes harm.

Listen... Not to butt in here, but the majority of scientists have believed their climate models that predicted we were all going to be roasting alive in an apocalyptical waterworld of melted ice caps and vanishing coastlines several years, if not decades, back.
