Watch full Morano interview on ‘Your World w/ Cavuto’ on Fox News here.
Selected excerpts from November 26, 2012:
Morano: “Climate activists think we need more taxes & regulation to somehow stop bad weather…Mayor Bloomberg said we need to take immediate action to prevent bad weather. This has now reached the level of the Mayan Calendar and Nostradamus.
The NYT has picture of stature of liberty underwater and warming of the end times. This is not science, this is the doomsday stuff of the Mayan calendar and we have no business masquerading it as science. When I was in U.S. Senate Environment & Public Works Committee, I got to go to Bali, S. America, Africa, My r/t ticket to Kenya in 2006 was $16,000 business class. The UN likes exotic locals…
To use Hurricane Sandy as the poster child for global warming — as the UN and Gore are now doing –makes as little sense as you can possibly imagine. We have gone longest period since the Civil War without a major cat 3 or larger hurricane to hit the U.S. If anything, global warming would prevent — at least Atlantic hurricanes — from making landfall.
The World Meteorological Organization said there is no evidence of a human footprint in hurricane activity. For warmists to pick hurricanes as a poster child means they are completely devoid of science. Obama said Americans can ‘do something’ about floods, hurricanes, droughts tornadoes, as though, you can at the ballot box, you vote yourself better weather. They are implying we can legislate better weather.”

Background reading on Hurricanes and extreme weather and global warming:
Global warming activists wished for severe storms!
DEATH WISH 2010: Warmist Michael Tomasky admits he’s cheering for more natural disasters to convince people of man-made global warming! –‘I confess morally unsupportable position of cheering for a certain amount of calamity, the better to put the crisis in stark relief, but hopefully not too much calamity, lest many die’
Warmist David Attenborough openly hoping for a disaster to hit North America: Asked what was needed to wake people up to [AGW]: ‘Disaster. It’s a terrible thing to say, isn’t it?’ — ‘Even disaster doesn’t do it. There have been disasters in North America, with hurricanes and floods, yet still people deny and say ‘oh, it has nothing to do with climate change.’ It visibly has got [something] to do with climate change’
Science on Hurricanes & Global Warming:
NOAA scientist Martin Hoerling debunks notion that warmer than average ocean temps made Sandy stronger — Hoerling: ‘The unusually warm waters off Eastern Seaboard were however in areas where the background temperature is like 60 degrees Fahrenheit. So adding a few degrees Fahrenheit at that cool water temperature doesn’t matter too much for the intensity of a hurricane’
Scientists reject Sandy/Climate Link — Warmists Go Full ‘Tabloid Climatology’ & Claim Sandy Speaks!
Hurricane Facts: ‘According to NOAA, they have been on decline in US since the beginning of records in 19th century. The worst decade for major (category 3,4,5) hurricanes was 1940s’
NY Times Warns On Climate Change: ‘Fear Death By Water’, Rising Seas Likely To Swallow Up City If We Don’t Act Soon — Reaction: Mayan prophets agreed with NYT! — We were warned!
We have heard it all before! 1950 Shock News: ‘The world’s weather is just crazy’ — Strange Atmospheric Events Causing Floods, Droughts, Polar Melting, Global Warming — In 2012, NASA’s James Hansen – ‘says that 350 ppm CO2 would stabilize the climate, because he has absolutely no idea what he is talking about’
Pavlov’s Dogs: ‘Pavlov demonstrated that it is possible to create very strong associations between things that have no relationship to each other’ — ‘Climate scientists have done the same thing, connecting weather to taxes. A hurricane tells the New York mayor that we need more taxes. Every weather event convinces Bill McKibben that we need more taxes. California and Australia officially associate weather and taxes’
Federal study finds no evidence that climate change caused more severe flooding during last century! — Inconvenient Reality: U.S. Geological Survey finds in some regions ‘floods become LESS SEVERE as greenhouse gas emissions have increased’
Climate Depot Response to Bloomberg: ‘Wow. How persuasive. Let’s legislate storms and weather! How simple. At least Bloomberg may start worrying less about the size of sodas in NYC restaurants!’
Global warming not making weather wackier: ‘The weather was wilder and weirder in the past than it is today’ – – ‘back when CO2 was below 350 ppm’ — ‘People are claiming there are more disasters now. That’s crazy. The weather was terrible in the past, back when CO2 was below 350ppm’ – ‘Climate was never safe. You had horrific fires, droughts, floods, heat waves — it hasn’t gotten any worse with the CO2 increase’
