The next moment hit like a freight train, and Sanders wasn’t expecting it.
He pushed the climate change narrative that “the last ten years have been the warmest on record.”
Rogan’s response was brutal. He didn’t just push back. He pulled out an article from The Washington Post… pic.twitter.com/NgQK7qFU5B

The headline of the article reads, “Scientists have captured Earth’s climate over the last 485 million years. Here’s the surprising place we stand now.”
The article included a chart tracking temperatures all the way back to 485 million years ago—and it turns out we’re living in… pic.twitter.com/9NfZRo7g7C

It’s not every day a major politician sits down with Joe Rogan.
Bernie Sanders did, and now we know why most skip the invitation.
Bernie pushed the global warming narrative. Rogan crushed him with undeniable data.
Then it got worse.
Rogan made Sanders instantly regret saying… pic.twitter.com/pgxDqn03RW

Carbon Dioxide Is Not the “Control Knob” of the Climate
There is a lack of connection between higher levels of CO2 and warming. During the Ice Age, CO2 levels were ten times higher than they are today.9
There are many, many factors that impact climate—including volcanoes, wind oscillations, solar activity, ocean cycles, volcanoes, the tilt of the Earth’s axis, and land use. CO2 is just one factor, not the control knob of the climate.
University of Pennsylvania geologist Dr. Robert Giegengack has declared, “CO2 is not the villain that it has been portrayed.”
Today’s levels of roughly four hundred parts per million (PPM) of CO2 are not alarming. In geologic terms, today’s CO2 levels are among the lowest in earth’s history.10
“Climate change is governed by hundreds of factors or variables, and the very idea that we can manage climate change predictably by understanding and manipulating at the margins one politically selected factor (CO2), is as misguided as it gets. It’s scientific nonsense,” University of London professor emeritus Philip Stott has noted.
Atmospheric scientist Hendrik Tennekes, a pioneer in the development of numerical weather prediction and former director of research at the Netherlands’ Royal National Meteorological Institute, declared: “I protest vigorously the idea that the climate reacts like a home heating system to a changed setting of the thermostat: just turn the dial, and the desired temperature will soon be reached.”
According to Greenpeace co-founder Dr. Patrick Moore: “We had both higher temperatures and an ice age at a time when CO2 emissions were 10 times higher than they are today.”
MIT climate scientist Lindzen’s 2020 study debunked the “implausible claim that a change in one variable—CO2—is predominantly responsible for altering global temperatures.”12 The study, which was published in the European Physical Journal, found that a “doubled- CO2 effect has less than 1/5th of the impact that the net cloud effect has. And yet we are asked to accept the ‘implausible’ claim that change in one variable, CO2, is predominantly responsible for altering global temperatures.”
I’m a few days late to the party, but Happy Show Your Stripes Day.
