22 Times: Climate Change a Greater Threat than Terrorism

22 Times: Climate Change a Greater Threat than Terrorism
ISIS has taken responsibility for the horrifying attacks in Paris that have left more than 150 dead and hundreds wounded.
French President Francois Hollande is calling for the closure of his country’s borders.
President Barack Obama didn’t condemn Islamic radicals for the attacks, but he did call them “an outrageous attempt to terrorize innocent civilians” and “an attack on all of humanity and the universal values we share.”
...Below are 23 times Obama or his administration officials claimed climate change a greater threat than radical Islamic terrorism.
In a January 15, 2008 presidential campaign speech on Iraq and Afghanistan, Barack Obama said the “immediate danger” of oil-backed terrorism “is eclipsed only by the long-term threat from climate change, which will lead to devastating weather patterns, terrible storms, drought, and famine.
That means people competing for food and water in the next fifty years in the very places that have known horrific violence in the last fifty:
Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia.
Most disastrously, that could mean destructive storms on our shores, and the disappearance of our coastline.”
...During a September 28 (2015) address at the United Nations, President Obama said that ““We can roll back the pollution that we put in our skies,” adding that “No country can escape the ravages of climate change.”
Read 'em all and understand there IS a difference between the  democrat party and the republican party.
