Climate change seems real when it's
106
Every summer it seems like a different kind of out-of-control weather pattern decides to strike.
In the past month alone, we've experienced deadly Colorado wildfires, early-season heat waves and a wind-whipping hurricane, convincing formerly dubious Americans that climate change is actually real.
"Many people around the world are beginning to appreciate that climate change is under way, that it's having consequences that are playing out in real time and, in the United States at least, we are seeing more and more examples of extreme weather and extreme climate-related events," Jane Lubchenco, head of the NOAA, said.
Glaciers are almost gone, the trees out West are turning brown, wildfire season started early...
Soon, only Jim Inhofe will still be yelling, "It's all a fraud," while the rest of the repugicans will soon pivot their position to "Sure, it's real, but are we causing it?"
It's how liars stay in business - you have to keep changing the lie.
